Learning to Flirt - by Charley                                                                                              


Here is a post written by my buddy Charley who was at least as shy as I was in school and solved his problems faster than I did.  His method might just work for you.

Hi, this is Charley

I used to be an extremely shy guy, when I had to talk to a girl in high school I would stutter, blush and sweat like a pig.  I think I had 1 date my junior and senior years and that was set up by a friend's sister because she felt sorry for me.




Now the thing was I could talk to Karen (my friend's sister) and some of the other girls because I helped them in math and chemistry.  When helping them I didn't view them as girls, just someone that needed help.

At the beginning of the senior year Karen took me aside and told me I needed to at least start talking to the girls.  She thought I was "cute" and so did some of the other cheerleaders.

She told me to talk to the ones that didn't really appeal to me - the gigglers, the fat ones, the shy ones just any of them I wasn't interested in.  Just get used to talking to girls.

She told me to just start out saying "Hi" to all the girls, they follow up in about 2 weeks with "Hi, how are you?"

Next I was supposed to find something to compliment them on, their skirt, jeans, blouse, hair style - whatever.

Then I was actually supposed to talk to them.  It worked!!  By the end of the first month I was actually talking to girls and beginning to enjoy it.  I quit blushing, stuttering and sweating.
I was still very worried about approaching the good looking girls, but I noticed that even some of them were saying "Hi" or "Good Morning."

By the end of the first semester I was talking to ALL the girls about all sorts of stuff.  Some suggested I go to movies with their friends and the friends boyfriends.

Things just took off from there.  I started asking girls out and got turned down a lot, but I also got lots of dates.  Some of the girls wanted to get serious and of course I quite seeing them.

Know what, by dropping some of the girls I sort of became in demand for the rest.  It was almost as if the girls had to impress me.

Now I was one of the guys being chased and I didn't even play football.

WOW!!
