R2C—been thinking about the flirtation angle.

Popped into my head yesterday at the bank—why not flirt with one of the tellers?

Or in line at Starbucks today, with the pretty lady in the purple cami and blue jeans with beautiful diamond earrings. Know I should probably do this—get the confidence going. What’s weird is that at work I’ve had comments directed at me by women my age and older ‘hey, you look great, have you lost weight?’ (It may not be flirting, but nice to have some attention. And the answer is yes—about 30 lbs. since spring of 2016.) I get those comments, why shouldn’t I give them out?

I go for the laugh if I can. Laughing is a natural response to something unexpected. Show off your wit if possible.

Depending on the envirmonment:

"I have just started wearing these slimming socks. They must be working" smile

The wink will definitely seal the deal.

Wondering if one of my GAL goals is to flirt / have conversation with a different woman each day

Nothing major--just "Hi X how are you?"

Tried that at work a little bit today (I know--do or do not, there is no try), especially as teaching can be a very isolating profession with the long hours and boundaries I need to keep with students.

Saw 2 cute colleagues as I was leaving: Me: "Bye ladies" Her: "Bye [Bo]". Honestly felt nice to have the interaction and it's ironic that I'd be more okay with this woman calling me by first name than the W.

I know it's not a whole lot and my game is weak, but gotta start somewhere

Also at Costco, me just acknowledging the checker near the exit by name "Thank you, Brooke"

Baby steps

The key is just being in the moment without fear or expectations. Just enjoy every interaction with everyone. If she is attractive, that is a bonus. If you can make her experience with you enjoyable, well done.
