Sexual Flirting: How It Works
Sexual Flirting: How It Works. You’ve met someone and that spark was instantly there. Once you learn all about sexual flirting, you’ll know how to take that spark and turn it into more.
It’s a special feeling. It’s a sexy, unique feeling, one which takes over your consciousness, leaving you unable to concentrate on much else. We are, of course, talking about sexual flirting.
Finding your personal flirting style
Sure, we’re going to tell you all about sexual flirting, but one of the most important things to keep in mind when flirting is finding your personal flirting style.
We could tell you all about sexual flirting, but if that’s not your personal flirting style, then you won’t have much success.
Flirting styles can be divided into 5 categories. These include:
Traditional
A traditional flirter relies on the ol’ gender stereotypes. Think “dominating and assertive man who approaches the woman” and “soft docile woman who was secretly waiting for the man to approach her all night.”
Sincere
A sweetheart whose method of flirting depends on creating a real emotional bond, making the other person feel comfortable, and hoping for something more genuine or long-lasting than a hookup.
Playful
Not one to take much seriously, a playful flirt isn’t really hoping that something will come from flirting, they just enjoy it for the fun of it. This style involves a lot of banter and laughs.
Polite
This flirting style is what you might call… Reserved. A polite flirter would never overstep any boundaries, say anything inappropriate, or do anything embarrassing. Overall, they’re very cautious.
And then, of course, there’s sexual flirting.
What is sexual flirting, really?
Sexual flirting isn’t about “I like you,” it’s about “I want you.” Trust us, there’s a very real difference between those two statements. You can like someone and want to get to know someone, whilst also wanting to get closer to them.
But if you want someone, you don’t always have to want to get to know them. Think about Tinder for one, much of the flirting that goes on is downright sexual and nothing else!
If you’re not sure how to go about performing sexual flirting, and you’re trying to give someone you’re seeing the heads up that you’re feeling a little, shall we say, frisky, then let’s check out a few features of this steamy type of flirting.
Sexual flirting suggestions to try
If you’re new to sexual flirting and looking for ways to tell your beau that you want them, give these a go!
1. Know when to flirt
The sexiest way to flirt with someone? Know when the right time to be sexy and flirty is!
We can tell a lot about someone from their body language. If someone is turned away from you, crossing their arms, or avoiding eye contact, it’s pretty safe to say that they’re not in the mood for sexual flirting.
And when someone isn’t in the mood, you won’t be able to change their mind, no matter how good your technique is.
2. The eye contact and coy smile combo
We’ve all seen this one, and we’ve probably done it without realizing it. Sexual flirting 101 is catching a hot person’s eyes, looking down for a second, and then letting your eyes run up their body to catch their eyes once more, all with a coy smile on your face.
If you bite your finger or sip on a straw at the same time, you get bonus points for extra hot sexual flirting.
3. Talking just a little naughty
There is a difference between dirty talk and naughty talk, and when you’re trying out sexual flirting, you need to stick to the naughty side of the spectrum. Dirty talk is for when the deed actually happens, not before!
Again, coyness is the way to go with this one. Something like, “I’m sorry I can’t help but stare at your biceps,” and then cover your eyes in a joking way and say, “Oh I can’t believe I just said that,” to cover it up and give an innocent edge would work like a charm.
Sexual innuendos work wonderfully well in sexual flirting, because they’re thinking, “Did they really just say that? Or, am I imagining it?” and it keeps the game flowing back and forth.
4. Invade their space
You know that regular flirting involves slight touching, e.g. touching their arm when you laugh, or a joking nudge, but sexual flirting takes it up a notch. Now, be careful not to cross any lines here… You’re trying to invade space, not invade their boundaries!
Try standing just a little closer than you normally would, so they can feel your breath against their skin. That odd brush against their skin that’s just a second longer than is necessary. These are all sexual flirting hints that aren’t heavy, but make them think, “Hmm, signals are coming my way here.”
5. Make your compliments suggestive
If you’re going to compliment them on any part of their body, make sure you add a hint of suggestion.
For instance, when you’re trying out sexual flirting, you won’t say, “Oh I love your eye color,” because that’s general flirting and it’s cute, not hot.
What you want to do is pick a body part that is close enough to the main event, but nothing too direct. So, “You know, you have great legs,” is a good one. Legs aren’t offensive, but they lead somewhere quite sexual…
6. Stroke their hand
This one might sound ridiculous at first, but hear us out. When you’re out in public, sitting holding hands perhaps, make lazy circles on their palm. It feels fantastic, and it’s just enough suggestion to make them know what you’re thinking about.
It’s not a full-on PDA, and it’s not going to make anyone uncomfortable, but the two of you will know where it’s going.
7. Ask them questions
Everyone loves to talk about themselves! Don’t go into this like it’s an interrogation, but don’t forget to ask them questions about themselves.
They don’t have to be particularly suggestive questions *although they can be*, innocent questions are enough to make someone feel desired and flattered.
And when they answer, listen!
8. Don’t forget the playful banter
What even is flirting without some playful banter? Humor is widely regarded as one of the sexiest traits in a potential partner. So, make your flirting partner laugh and their attraction to you will skyrocket.
For a bit of added sexy fun, throw some naughty banter into the conversation to have you both fidgeting in your seats with anticipation.
9. Draw attention to your body
Although don’t make it obvious! Occasionally let a finger or a straw linger at your lips. Play with your hair. Women, when crossing your legs, do it slowly to draw attention to your leg, and men, spread your legs just a little bit to draw attention to… Yeah, you know.
See, there are so many ways to draw attention to your body in ways that aren’t too obvious but still make them think of you in a sexual way.
10. Get them to take you out
Now, you never want to come on too strong with sexual flirting. But, of course, you’re not flirting for no reason – you want a date. The best way to secure a date without coming on too strong? Make them think a date is their idea!
You can do this by using suggestive language, such as “I don’t have any plans for the rest of the week,” or “I haven’t been to that new restaurant yet but it sounds good.” That way, you’re not asking them out directly, but you’re feeding them the bait to ask you out.
