I am good at online rapport, but struggle at flirting in person

Question - (24 April 2011) 1 Answers - (Newest, 25 April 2011)
A female United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

Just a quickie... I have met a woman I *really* like but I am rubbish at face-to-face flirting! We met eac hother in person, but live about an hour on the train away from one another so although I see her at least three times a month, the majority of our communication is online. I am pretty good at building an online rapport, and I am told that I am good fun in person but I really struggle when it comes to flirting! Usually when I like someone, I go by the assumption that my 'natural wit and charm' (!!) will dazzle them into asking me out and if not, they are probably not for me but this time, I don't want to take that risk. I really like her! Any tips?

A male reader, wiseguy United States +, writes (25 April 2011):

Never wait for a woman to ask you out. Even if she is attracted to you, most women are afraid to appear too 'fast' and would rather wait for the guy to approach. It's the man's job to approach.

About flirting...I could talk all day on the subject, but a simple tip is to never let her know for sure if you like her or not. And you can do this by constantly giving contrasting statements. Example: "You're pretty, too bad you're not my type".

Or you can look into her eyes and say, "I have a confession to make....*pause*....I have to go to the bathroom"

You have to say these things with a smile so she knows you're joking.
