Angelina is shy and timid when it comes to meeting the opposite sex.

"I am not sure how to approach a guy," she confessed. "I always come off as being desperate and I don't want that to the be the case. I think once you get to know me you will see I open up quite a bit (now, now... that is not what she means)"

Our advice here is to show her that things are not really a big deal. Before making any grandiose plans for a dinner date and movie, here is a great tip. When you are talking with her and she is running down a list of normal mundane things she has do this weekend, offer to help. Show up at the laundry mat because "you just happened to be in the area." Now you get the drift. Who knows, she may open up for you just yet (now, now).

Jiang from San Francisco is studying to be Mime. Yes, you got it a Mime! She describes in earnest detail what she was looking for in a partner. "

", Jiang told Flirting.com. " ."

That's right she's a freaking Mime! She didn't say anything, but her body language said it all. She wants a non-verbal man that doesn't always have to be chattering away a mile a minute.

If you want to be here type, our advice is to pay close attention to how you listen to people. Sometimes being quiet is easier said then done. So think "action" versus verbal platitudes such as "you are so beautiful and blah, blah, blah…" Show don't tell. Buy her a flower or do something nice for her. Like pay her Mime school bill.

Harry from Santa Barbara is recently divorced. He finally quite his boring job as a staff accountant and now pursues the bohemian dream he has always wanted. This involves pursuing his acting career and flirting with any and all would be flirts (It must be noted is that his ex-wife cited his excessive flirting as one reason for the divorce).

“So far it doesn’t help with the alimony payments,” he told Flirting.com, “but I have met many ladies with similar aspirations. Yes, they are more attracted to the ones that made it in show business, but they all need companionship.”

Harry rebounds nicely from his marriage. First, he pursues a dream of his, despite how impractical it might be. Second, he flirts to his heart’s delight and if it makes him happy, more power to him. It doesn’t make him a bad guy, just a flirt. However, be careful about quitting your day job. It may pay to flirt, but flirting will not pay the bills.

Ernest is an admissions consultant for a university in Flagstaff, Ariz. He often times gives presentations at high schools in recruiting efforts for his University.

“I thought I would have great opportunities to flirt with the teachers after my presentation, but they are always too busy with their students,” he said. ‘However, the students flirt with me more than anything.”

Our advice to Ernest is to be extra careful when students come around. After all, under 18-years old can get you fired and worse, locked up. Nothing kills you chances for flirting like introducing yourself as a convicted sex offender.

Adrianna from Scranton, Pa., is a stand up comic who one day dreams of cracking the big time. She wants a man that can make her laugh or at least serve as a sounding board for her jokes.

"A wicked sense of humor drives me wild," she told Flirting.com, "…and the dirtier the jokes the better-it's all good by me!"

If this is your type, then start brushing up on your one-liners and zingers. Go to a book store and take your pick. You will find a plethora of joke books in the humor section. Also, watch a lot of Comedy Central and get hip to who the hot comedians are. Then, if all goes well, perhaps you deliver her your best "There once was man from Nantucket…" And with any luck, she will finish your dirty limerick for real.

Melvin is a cocksure financial services advisor in Lebanon, Tenn. He is a man of few words and even fewer flirting maneuvers but rides his impressive wallet as evidence of his self-worth. He claims his “rubbing of the hands,” coupled with his intense romantic glare, hypnotizes the “broads” into his waiting arms. “Broads” was his term.

“I expect broads to happen…,” he said to Flirting.com, “they see what I offer; they can jump to it…. If not, their loss. I will move on and spend my money on something else.”

Melvin may think his flirting is successful but it is on borrowered time. At best, he is oblivious to the flirts he lost due to his brash cockiness. And, to the best of our knowledge, only Frank Sinatra and his rat pack could get away with using the term “broad.” Melvin ain’t no Frank Sinatra. Be warned; don’t think you are ever too cool when it comes to flirting. Being down to earth is where your best opportunities lie. After all, chances are you aint’ no Sinatra either.

Jeff from Santa Barbara, Calif., looks to flirt everywhere he can and claims he is an expert flirt. His advice is simple: always be smiling, have a grin, and be pleasant.

He attributes his success to his personal philosophy that a smile starts in the eyes, which he said he gleaned from a glossy magazine his last girlfriend left around his apartment.

We couldn’t agree more.

It has been said “the eyes are the windows to the soul.” In that sense, make sure you squeegee them before you start flirting. That is, make sure they shine by smiling along with your teeth!

Jeff is a culinary arts instructor in Pittsburgh and loves to whip up a batch of delicious Pâté de foie gras served picnic-style with a Sauternes wine and bread.

He claims it is the perfect compliment his eclectic flirting moves. Moreover, he is adamant food is the ultimate aphrodisiac when it comes to flirting and his passion for food is rivaled only by his passion for flirting.

“I like a woman that appreciates a good meal,” he shared with us. “No I am not saying a women who likes to shovel food down her pie hole, I mean a lady that has a more discriminated palette when it comes to food and men.”

Right on Jeff. Women love a man that can cook. It shows a refined, softer touch. We have previously stated that men should not draw attention to a woman and her food, but that applies only when they are shopping for it. A man that can prepare grub is a much different story. It’s like, say, comparing apples to oranges.

Aiko, who works as a graphic artist in San Francisco, likes a man with refined tastes. Ever since breaking up with her boyfriend of 5-years, she has had little luck in finding someone who enjoys the finer things in life.

“I am not looking for a Donald Trump,” she joked. “But, I definitely want someone who is not into routine… someone who is open to trying different things.”

We instruct all interested suitors to the nearest magazine rack. Grab a GQ and start reading. You don’t have to be cover material, but you will find some very good pointers within on how to behave like an eclectic man. Aiko would be impressed.

Jim, a single dad, who works from home by processing international bank check transactions from Nigeria—does that sound legitimate?— is a notorious “chat flirt” when online, but gets gun shy when faced with the real deal.

“I don’t know what it is,” Jim told Flirting.com. “I love sharing jokes and fooling around online, but that never translates into real life flirting success.”

When Jim described his other hobbies as video games and reading e-books online, we knew what the problem was with him.

It’s time to get out of the house Jim and experience life!

Don’t play baseball online, go join a softball team. Get out there and work on those social skills. They are only dormant. The old expression holds true: use it or loose it. Same goes for flirting skills.
