With these fail-proof rules, we have you covered on all fronts... time to flirt like a boss, ladies.
The word flirting can sound quaint to the point of being lamely outdated. But the ability to banter playfully with someone you’re into is a time-honoured and valuable dating skill. “It heightens sexual tension and distinguishes your dynamic from a ‘just friends’ situation. It also helps you gauge compatibility and chemistry on so many levels,” says US-based dating coach Laurie Davis Edwards, Founder of The Worthy One, an online community that helps women in their love lives, and author of Love @ First Click. The only problem? In the era of digital dating, you may never have learned this analogue skill...or you’ve let it expire. Here’s how to signal you’re down to get much closer.
