Catch a flirt

 Something I  liked to read.....


A remarkable amount of people have no idea when the opposite sex/ same sex is flirting with them. Some people mistake someone who is flirting with them as just being friendly.
Here I've composed a list of signs that indicate when someone is flirting with you, so no more wondering whether they are just being nice to you, or whether they just like you as a friend.


1. Eye contact

Eye contact managed over 5 seconds or more is very abnormal between just friends, however this is not unusual between two people who are in a relationship.
When your eyes meet, if someone likes you, he tends to hold eye contact with you longer than what he would with someone who he classifies as just a friend. Once he has held eye contact with you, he will look back at you; people tend to look away as it can make you and the other person feel uncomfortable, so usually there is a small break in between holding eye contact

2.

They are exceptionally nice to you: they compliment you a lot and will help you out if you ever need assistance with anything.

3. Body posture.

A fair amount of guys stiffen their posture when they like the opposite sex, this is often to affirm his manliness and to look his best in front of you.

4. Leaning in

Another way to find out someone is flirting with you is if they lean in towards you when you are having a conversation, talking, this shows they wants to get close to you, and want to connect with you, by leaning in its more personal and intimate then if you to sit at the other side of the room talking to one another.
5.

They make an effort to keep the conversation going as long as possible.
When you like someone you usually try your hardest to keep the conversation going unless you are really shy, if someone likes you they might ask you a lot of questions and keep using various tactics to keep the conversation alive.

6.Physical contact.

When you like someone you like to have physical contact with them, however don't mistake touchy feely people as been attracted to you, some people just like touching people when they speak to them, So how do you know if they are flirting with you when they touch you or if their doing it with no intentions to make you think they are flirting with you?
If you frequently find that they tend to brush past you when they are nearby it is quite probable that is isn't done accidental, if its only happened once or twice then it probably doesn't mean anything, but if this person keeps doing it then that may be doing it because they want to have physical contact with you and get your attention.

There are several signs that a person is flirting with you, most of us have our own little ways of flirting with someone we like but we often use some of the obvious flirting techniques that are written in this article, the most obvious sign a person is flirting with you is holding eye contact, because you're not going to want to hold eye contact with your best friend for a much longer period of time unless you really like them.
