    • Lightly caress his legs under the table at dinner.
    • Massage his shoulders when he’s sitting down after a long day at work.
    • Steal a kiss when he’s least expecting it to surprise him.
    • If you're insecure about touching, it might just be as simple as saying, “I'd like to have more affection in our relationship” to alert your husband of what you'd like to do.

    [5] Here are a few ways to use body language to flirt:
    • Flip your hair. A flirty action like twirling your locks will send your husband the message that you’re flirting with him.

    • Try changing your tone of voice to flirt. For example, whisper in his ears to make whatever you're saying more intimate and special.

    Expert Answer
    I believe every couple has to navigate how they feel about the level of affection to figure out how to flirt on their specific case. Some people are very touchy feely, while others are simply not. Having a conversation around understanding what makes somebody feel good in a relationship can be very helpful in terms of just bridging that gap of understanding what needs to happen for both parties to sort of feel good.
