How To Flirt On Facebook
This is our last post on our flirting on Facebook series. Wrapping things up, we’re going to assume that our strategies worked and you snagged yourself a date. So we want to end the series with preparing for the date and what to do 0n it.
First, common sense safeguards:
Always meet in public.
Don’t ever meet in a private or remote location.
Tell a friend.
Tell a friend or family member when and where you’re going. Take your cell phone with you!
Stay sober.
This isn’t the time to yell your favorite cheer: “One Tequila, Two Tequila, Three Tequila, Floor!”
Drive yourself to and from the first meeting.
You need to be in control if things don’t work out.
Flirting On The Date
Don’t blow the first meeting by being so boring he falls asleep halfway through the appetizer. Use these flirting techniques and he’ll be eating out of your hands (and more importantly, picking up the tab!).
Ocular Triangulation.
When we’re with friends or business associates we look from eye to eye and across the bridge of the nose. With friends, the look moves into a triangle shape: From eye to eye but also down to the nose and mouth. Once you start flirting, make the triangle bigger, widening at the bottom to include the neck and top of chest. Also, look more intensely from eye-to-eye and particularly the mouth. It makes guys wonder what it’d be like to kiss you.
Mirroring.
Do what they do. If they lean forward to tell you something, lean in to meet them. If they sit back to take a sip of their drink and look you in the eye, pause and do the same. Why? We like people who are like us. Mirroring him will give the impression you’re on the same level and in the same mood. But be careful. Mirroring doesn’t mean “Aping.” Capture the spirit not the exact movements. Wait about a minute to mirror them.
The Eyebrow Flash.
When we first see someone we’re attracted to, our eyebrows rise and fall. We’re not conscious we’re doing it because scientists have clocked it at a fifth of a second. You can signal interest to your guy by prolonging the ‘eyebrow flash’ for up to a second.
Point Him Out.
You’re probably already doing this subconsciously but if you’re interested point your body toward them—torso, feet, legs, and arms. Do it even when you’re not looking at them—it sends a subconscious signal of interest.
Blink, Blink.
Pupil size increases when you see someone you’re interested in. So does your blink rate. Try blinking more when you’re talking to him. If he likes you, he’ll unconsciously try to match your blink rate (remember, interested people subconsciously ‘mirror’ their love interest).
Final Thoughts
Love will fall into your lap but you have to take your lap places.
In other words, if you want to meet a special guy, you have to get out of your comfort zone. That means taking chances by being the one to initiate a conversation. It also means getting out of your house. The advice in this series isn’t meant to keep you at home typing. It’s to get you out there meeting cute guys. Facebook is the means, not the end.
Now, get out there and take your lap (and your fingers) to places they’ve never been!
