5 ways to flirt online
It used to be that a coy sideways glance or an accidental touch of a hand was a sure fire way to let someone know you were interested in getting a little closer. But in the online world of the 21st century, with so much human interaction taking place online, how do you get the message across that you're up for upping the ante? How do you 'wink across the web' (so to speak) and indulge in some gentle flirting?
Check out these five ways you can keep an e-conversation going and pique your match's interest:
1. Respond to emails promptly
Finding a personal email in your inbox is like getting a Valentine, no matter what time of year it is. If you receive an email, reply right away. Your match will know you're paying attention, and that alone will make him or her feel a little special.
2. Ask an "innocent" question
Ask if he has any special plans for the upcoming weekend or if she's doing anything on Saturday. Not only will you find out more about what your match does with his or her free time, you may be able to find an opening for a seemingly accidental run-in. You're going to that new Italian place? What a coincidence! I had planned to go there too ... Get the idea?
3. Hint at an intriguing story
But don't spill the beans all at once. Mention that you're still unpacking your overnight bag and shaking the sand out of your shoes from last weekend's great adventure. What adventure? Let your match wonder ... and send you another email to get the scoop.
4. Remember that a little bit goes a long way
Don't flood your match's inbox with pages of jokes and anecdotes. Keep it short and sweet. Very sweet. Even though you're dying to dive in and chat all day, show a little restraint. Better to leave him or her wanting more than wishing you'd give it a rest.
5. Sign off suggestively
Save that stiff businesslike "sincerely" for your work-related correspondence. To end your letter on a flirtatious note, turn up the heat with a "yours," "wish I were saying this in person" or even "xoxo."
It doesn't take a genius to adapt the basics of good, old-fashioned flirting to the new world of online interaction. A little sweetness, a little coyness and showing a personal interest in your match will get your message across loud and clear even if it is only communicated through crafty coquettish keystrokes.

Hmm.. I'm thinking 'Do I try hello - can I have a quick shag?' and prove I'm a bloke! Or do I reveal my subtle sensitive side and leave a big question mark. Alternatively... --- 'I'll be right over and show you all I've got!'

So it goes a little like this? (novice cracks fingers and shakes hands to loosen up).:
Hi Juliette got your email 1 minute and 15 seconds ago and boy did it cheer me up. So anyway, how's your bum for spots today? Off anywhere nice at the weekend? NO WAYY!! you're washing your hair also? Well it just so happens I'm a mobile hair stylist passing through Timbuctu later in the week. Me and my mates Buzz and Neil are just back from our last mission and I'm busy cleaning the moon-dust from our lead suits but once finished I'll get out the hairdryer and tongs.
Well I'd like to get the chance to say all this in person but If you look our the window you may be able to make out the binoculars pointing at you from the the apartment block across the street. It's me waving.
I'll be seeing you then,
Dr Lecter.
