People seem to equate flirting with some weird things. I guess most of us did in middle school. But now I do flirt with people I want to befriend as well as date. Lots of eye contact and smiling. Quick gentle touches on the shoulder to emphasize a point or accompany laughter. Extra acknowledgement of their points, ideas, viewpoints. Light, pleasant teasing ("Look at you, stunning everyone with your outfit, Okay, I see you over there"). Gotta be willing to try on new personas and interpersonal behaviors. Maybe take an improv class.
