The Art of The Glance

“When I give “the look”, I do it for long enough and with a smile and a second/third glance, that way he knows he’s welcome to approach me. If we lock eyes more than twice, I’m willing to bet he finds me attractive. If he does approach me, he is absolutely my type of guy. I don’t need any fancy game. A simple “Hi, I’m ‘X’. What’s your name?” Would suffice and I can take the convo from there knowing he’s interested.”

A prolonged glance paired with a smile is a strong indicator of flirtatious intent. If she keeps locking eyes with you, it’s likely a sign that she wants you to approach her.

Initiating Conversation

When a woman gives you a flirtatious look, she might give you the green light to approach her. So, take a deep breath, muster up your courage, and go for it!

The Fear of Flirting

“I’m not very good at it. At least consciously. (Sometimes, I think subconsciously, my brain takes over & does it, but I’m never sure. It IS TERRIFYING for me to flirt, so this is why. I have PTSD, so don’t judge. I wish I could flirt & it’d all work in my favor.) “

Some women might struggle with flirting due to shyness or personal issues. Recognizing this, responding patiently, and understanding can help make her feel more comfortable.

A Cute Cue to Approach

“Yes please approach. We think you are cute. Walk up to us , give us a genuine compliment and let the conversation go where it must.”
