Flirtologist Gives Some Flirting
Advice
(onlinedatingmagazine.com -
April 20, 2004) Singles connect at everyday places
by starting positive conversations, says Jill Spiegel,
who describes herself as a Flirtologist.
Landing dates happens while waiting in
line, getting a haircut, volunteering, or visiting
a dog park, says Spiegel, who conducts flirting seminars
and is author of the newly released The
Flirtologist's Guide To Dating.
"There are 100 million singles in
the U.S., and yet singles say it's hard to find dates.
Our lifestyle can be a natural dating service when
we stay alert to the people around us and connect through
common topics," says Spiegel. "There is a myth that
meeting singles and flirting is about being clever or
witty. The truth is the top three qualities people look
for
in a first impression are warmth, genuineness and empathy,
so think friendly when it comes to flirting."
When initiating
conversations, Spiegel recommends saying something
positive even if it's about the weather. Or pay a sincere
compliment.
Or ask a question -- people love to give their opinion.
She also suggests you can be gentle and direct by admitting
to someone you are nervous. That breaks the ice. Tell
them you would regret not saying something.
"These gestures are honest and engaging," says
Spiegel who became a Flirtologist to share the magic
of flirting.
More of her flirting tips:
1) Be a playful
flirt. Smile at people like they are old friends.
2) Be
a polite flirt. Instead of asking for someone's number,
give them yours and tell them a good time to reach
you.
3) Be a confident flirt. If someone
doesn't call you, tell yourself you are desirable
and that person wasn't the right person for you.
Spiegel says, "Life
is your 24-hour dating service. Reach out and flirt
today!"
