So what's a young, single and ready-to-mingle lady to do? Well thankfully there are three simple flirting tips that never fail to work. Oh and the more you practice them the better you'll get at them. Awesome or what?

Don't be afraid of eye contact:
Yes, making googly-eyes at a tall, dark, handsome stranger can feel a bit weird but you shouldn't shy away from giving him a good eyeful. Eye contact is one of the main ways to register your interest with members of the opposite sex, so a sneaky peep every now and then will encourage him to approach you. It will also make you seem confident and comfortable.

If you feel a bit uncomfortable doing it, ease yourself into it by practicing a thing known as 'triangular gazing.' Simply look at one of his eyes, then the other one and then at his mouth.

Locking eyes is an important part of flirting as studies have shown that it takes at least thirteen bouts of eye contact before the average man approaches a woman for a flirt.

Don't be afraid of giving him a few glimpses - eye contact is super attractive

Body language is absolutely everything:
Did you know that 80 per cent of human communication is non-verbal? This will show you just how important body language is and good body language is essential when it comes to getting your flirt on. If a guy you have the hots for starts chatting to you, it's a good idea to get a centimetre into his comfort zone and look up at him, rather than directly at him.

Stick your chest out, tilt your head down and look up. To soften up this stance, put all your weight on one foot. This is a classic way of displaying your interest in him and encouraging him to make a connect with you. Looking up at him will make him subconsciously feel the need to look after you and protect you, which in turn will make you seem more attractive to him.

However, be warned. If you do this and your man's immediate reaction is to take a step away or to move his body away from you completely, this means that he's most definitely not interested, so you should move on and focus your attentions elsewhere.

Always have a time limit:
Within the first 60 seconds of your flirty banter, immediately mention to your man that you have to go somewhere or be somewhere else at a certain time (whether this is true or not). Having a time constraint on the conversation will immediately encourage him to up his flirting tactics, will make you appear more appealing because you'll seem like a bit of a challenge, and will force him to bite the bullet and ask for your number faster if he's interested in you.
