Get Your Flirt On!

Locations, events & more

Some places are more suited for flirtationships than others, but not everyone feels comfortable in the usual hotspots like bars or nightclubs. Broaden your horizons and try your luck in the following places for your next romantic encounter:

Public spaces – shopping malls, parks, public pools, grocery stores, flea markets, and festivals are all bustling locations where striking up a casual conversation is common, feels safe, and can easily be continued or halted.

Niche establishments – find people who share your interests by seeking out social places you particularly enjoy frequenting, like museums, sporting events, movie theaters, concerts, community classes, trivia nights, creative workshops, or sports clubs.

Community – get to know your local residents through community service by actively volunteering at libraries, animal shelters, religious institutions, food banks, community gardens, and bake sales

Do’s & don’ts

Do:

…be yourself. The only way to attract and meet people who are right for you is by being authentic.

…remain open to all possibilities. Different experiences and people can help you discover new things about the world and yourself.

…release any expectations. Flirting is a lot more fruitful when you go with the flow and see how your relationships naturally turn out without trying to control their course.

Don’t:

…resort to pessimism. Negative attitudes repel people, even if they agree with what you’re saying.

…judge a book by its cover. Look beyond first impressions to get to know others – they may surprise you!

…be too hard on yourself. If you feel more stressed than excited, take a step back and try again when you feel better.
