How do you flirt?

I’ve been single for well over a decade and whilst I do sometimes get wanted male attention; I have no idea how to deal with it. Sometimes I would like to approach a man, or even I would like to give them the ‘okay’ to approach me - but I don’t know how.

do you smile? Wave? Go over and talk to them?

Holding eye contact usually works well, smiling and catching eye contact again, being tactile in person, offering a massage ? 😂

I think flirting with someone you fancy comes naturally. I'm married but when I'm chatting to someone I find a bit attractive I catch myself doing it. But if you want to make a conscious effort, lots of eye contact, sitting close to them and being tactile, tickling their arm, touching their leg, that kind of thing.

I am no doubt out of practice but really can't imagine offering a massage to a person I am interested in. Make eye contact, find a reason to chat to them...

I think it's mostly about listening to someone, saying how much you have in common and and laughing at their jokes!

Pretending to be charmed (if not actually a harmed by them)

I don’t think I can actively flirt but when I want to charm or attract someone I behave differently
