The Art of flirting

Which approach do you use when you're trying to meet someone? Are you a good talker, engaging others in interesting conversation, or do you sit back and wait to be courted? Do you "come on" strong with sexual signals, or more subtly "flirt"?

Getting someone's attention in whatever way you're comfortable with involves flirting. Flirting was a popular '80s term for trying to get someone's interest in a more subtle way than coming on strong. Unfortunately, flirting has received a bad rap, and these days is usually part of a complaint: "I saw my boyfriend flirting with another girl."

Let the new millennium welcome a resurgence of the positive aspects of flirting. That means, treat flirting as fun and a good way to practice social skills, and to make yourself and your targets feel good.
