Posted by Stacy

Rachel’s flirting tips for the shy girl are below:

“Flirting is all about making someone smile – do it right and they’ll come back for more!”

For the Shy Girl:

- Don’t forget to smile and make eye contact- Even if you can’t imagine ever making the first move, you can speak a thousand words with your eyes and smile. See someone you are interested in? Make 3 seconds of eye contact with a smile and if he is interested he will make the approach – guaranteed!

- Grab a wingwoman – Drop all of your attached or married friends (temporarily!) and grab your flirtiest and sexiest SINGLE friend possible to go out with you! You need someone who is going to help you start conversations with the cute guys out and about, not spend the night talking about mortgages and kids. You can go to brunch with them later.

- Keep it light – If you are constantly stumped when trying to think of something to talk about, think of 2-3 light topics that you feel comfortable talking about. Whether its an upcoming concert you are going to, a restaurant you went to, or even the weather, make sure you have something in your head to chat about.

- Fake it! Have a cocktail, just one, and let your nerves relax. After that practice practice practice! The more often you are smiling and making conversation, the more natural it will feel!
