    If you want to flirt with guys, the first thing that you need is to pay attention to your physical appearance. You should wear clothes that look good on you - something elegant, clean looking, comfortable, and at the same time, something that makes you feel confident. Remember, you don't need to have millions of expensive outfits to look beautiful because some simple fashions never go out of style! [1]
    • Try sporting dark, slimming jeans, a simple solid colored tank or cami, some chunky bead necklaces, or a cute sun dress.
    • Avoid looking like a slob or wearing any outfits that have stains or wrinkles in them.
  2. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/a\/a1\/Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-2.jpg\/v4-460px-Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-2.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/a\/a1\/Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-2.jpg\/aid849685-v4-728px-Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-2.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a><br>\n<\/p><p><br \/>\n<\/p><\/div>"}
    Be sure that you shower and clean yourself regularly. You should also wear deodorant, shave frequently, clean your ears, brush your teeth and hair, and you could try to paint your nails. Also, try to wear your hair in a style that makes you feel pretty - have a variety of hairstyles so you don't feel boring! [2]
    • If desired, use a perfume that smells sweet, but is not too overpowering. Two sprays on the neck and one spray on one wrist, then rub your two wrists together to transfer the scent.

    Don't stay in a group. A guy may find it a little uncomfortable to approach you if you are in a large group of people. No man can bear a rejection in front of a herd. Also, he may feel that he can't approach you because of your friends.
  4. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/b\/ba\/Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-4.jpg\/v4-460px-Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-4.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/b\/ba\/Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-4.jpg\/aid849685-v4-728px-Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-4.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a><br>\n<\/p><p><br \/>\n<\/p><\/div>"}
    This gives him the opportunity to approach you easily. Also, try to minimize the distance between the two of you. For example, you can sit at the chair next to him.
  5. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/5\/5a\/Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-5.jpg\/v4-460px-Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-5.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/5\/5a\/Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-5.jpg\/aid849685-v4-728px-Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-5.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a><br>\n<\/p><p><br \/>\n<\/p><\/div>"}
    There are multiple ways to act flirty, here are some of the best suggestions:
    • Compliment him. Be sure to compliment him on things that are true. Be sincere. Sometimes people will make up compliments just to talk to someone, but that is a totally wrong thing to do. You really should compliment on things you actually like about a person, so you sound more natural and confident.
    • Make eye contact. The eyes can be the most effective tool for flirting. It's possible to make a guy's heart skip a beat simply by giving him a playful, lusty, or lingering stare. [3] Here is how to do it:
      • If you're walking by someone you've got the hots for, give him a 2-3 second stare and then slowly glance away (slow is important). Smile just as you start to look away. He'll get the message.
      • Additionally, when you're talking to a guy you like, take a second to momentarily break away from his eyes and pause on his upper body or chest. Let 2 seconds pass. Then slowly move your eyes back up and make eye contact again. This will give him chills of excitement. He'll realize that you were checking him out - and he'll love it. However, be warned that shy guys will feel uncomfortable and more nervous, as much as they may like it!
    • Smile and giggle. According to polls, a laugh and a smile are the sexiest things a female can wear. If you perfect your smile and laugh to be seductive and sweet, you will find some great results. Practice forcing a natural smile and laugh, it can help through awkward situations. [4]
    • You can learn to brush a guy in such a way that you send tingles up and down his spine. Casually and gently tap him on the hand while laughing, it will give him a sense of manliness.
  6. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/1\/12\/Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-6.jpg\/v4-460px-Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-6.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/1\/12\/Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-6.jpg\/aid849685-v4-728px-Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-6.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a><br>\n<\/p><p><br \/>\n<\/p><\/div>"}
    Approach him and start a light conversation to get things going, but don't make it too obvious that you like him. If he approaches you, look him in the eyes as a sign of affection and confidence. The best opening line is just saying hello. Talk about what you have in common, talk about your surroundings, ask a question, ask for help, state an opinion.
  7. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/d\/d2\/Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-7.jpg\/v4-460px-Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-7.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/d\/d2\/Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-7.jpg\/aid849685-v4-728px-Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-7.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a><br>\n<\/p><p><br \/>\n<\/p><\/div>"}
    After he has come up to you and both of you have started talking, just try to find out whether he is your type or not. Is he one of the pushy ones, or will he stop at the line you draw? If you feel comfortable with him, carry on with the evening. In case he is not your type, just excuse yourself politely from his company. However, remember that you are the one who led him on. Now if you don't feel up to it, don't get outright rude.
  8. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/d\/df\/Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-8.jpg\/v4-460px-Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-8.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/d\/df\/Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-8.jpg\/aid849685-v4-728px-Flirt-With-Guys-at-School-Step-8.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a><br>\n<\/p><p><br \/>\n<\/p><\/div>"}
    If he's interested in you, don't just go immediately to be "best friends" or "boyfriend and girlfriend". Just start hanging out with him, become friends first, slowly become best friends or even more, let the relationship develop naturally! You want to make sure that he is the right guy for you, and you have things in common! It's fine if he doesn't seem like your type; stick with him and you may have secured yourself a best friend for life!

    Steer the conversation towards values and beliefs instead of just cracking jokes or having superficial conversations. Ask him about current events or things going on at school. Provoke conversation to go in a deeper direction. If he's receptive, he'll follow your lead.

    This is going to sound really basic, but just be yourself and trust your gut. If you don't know right now, you'll know soon enough. The odds are that if he's dating you, it's because he actually wants to be with you. Unless he gives you reason to think otherwise, don't assume the worst.

      The advice in this section is based on the lived experiences of wikiHow readers like you. If you have a helpful tip you’d like to share on wikiHow, please submit it in the field below.
      • When you're hanging around a guy, keep your arms relaxed by your sides. Doing so says you're open, confident, and makes it easier for people to approach you. If you cross your arms over your chest, he may interpret that as you're closing yourself off from him and you're not interested in talking.
      • If you're looking for a way to start a conversation, ask him about school events like dances or sports events. For example, you could say, "Are you going to be at the Valentine's Day Dance this week?"
      • Make sure your crush feels comfortable around you. Don't say things that could make him feel awkward. Be casual as if he were any of your other guy friends instead of your crush.
      • Stay true to yourself and don't do anything you don't feel comfortable doing.

      About This Article

      Article Summary X

      To flirt with a guy at school, try spending some time away from your usual crowd so he feels more comfortable approaching you. Some guys may feel too shy to come up to you when you’re in a group. When you’re around him, make eye contact and smile when he looks your way. If you’re hanging out together, try leaning in close or lightly brushing up against him. Strike up a friendly conversation with him and look for things the two of you have in common. Ask him a lot of questions and give him your full attention when he’s talking so that he can tell you’re genuinely interested in what he has to say. When you’re chatting, try dropping a sincere compliment now and then to let him know how much you like him. To learn how to connect with your crush on social media, keep reading!
