According to researchers, there are five main styles of flirting that people fall into: playful, sincere, polite, traditional, and physical. Each style has its own premises of flirting as well as its own general outcome.

Flirting style 1: Playful

Main Purpose: Playful flirters flirt because they find it fun, and it gives them great boosts to their self-esteem

General Experience: They flirt quickly and move from one person to another without thinking much about it

Common Outcome: They have quick flings, and are the least likely flirters to end up in meaningful and long-term relationships

Flirting style 2: Sincere

Main Purpose: Sincere flirters aren’t generally looking for a relationship, but rather someone to connect with emotionally.

General Experience: It’s all about creating a sincere bond between two people. Most sincere flirters are women, meaning a sincere flirter man is likely to have great success

Common Outcome: Relationships built on sincere flirting are generally powerful in terms of sexual chemistry and emotional connection, and have no problems transitioning to long-term status

Flirting style 3: Polite

Main Purpose: While polite flirters desire meaningful and sexual relationships, their first priority is their values, leading to flirting styles that embody nonsexual and proper communication

General Experience: Polite flirters rarely ever approach potential partners, as they feel that it might be improper. They are also averse to being flirted with in any style that isn’t polite

Common Outcome: Polite flirters tend to only end up with other polite flirters, but the relationships they form are incredibly meaningful

Flirting style 4: Traditional

Main Purpose: Traditional or conservative flirters only want long-term, meaningful relationships, but approach it differently according to their gender: women wait for men to approach, and men always make the first move

General Experience: Traditional women flirters rarely ever find flirting flattering, and require constant pursuit to gain their attention. Traditional men will learn as much as they can about their potential partner before they start flirting

Common Outcome: These are the most introverted flirters, and when they successfully start dating, they prefer only intimate settings for their dates

Flirting style 5: Physical

Main Purpose: While physical flirting is often confused with playful flirting, physical flirting has less of the carelessness of playful flirting, while still possessing the ability to flirt and move on quickly

General Experience: These flirters understand sexual chemistry the most, and know how to use their body to their advantage

Common Outcome: Relationships develop quickly and they know how to connect with almost anyone, as they prioritize creating strong emotional and physical bonds before their own needs

Most Attractive Qualities That Girls Are Looking For In a Guy

But there’s more to it than just flirting. A common mistake that many men make is thinking of women like a boss in a video game – as long as you make the right moves, you can easily conquer her and make her yours.

But it’s important to prioritize the things that women are looking for in a partner, and what they find most attractive in a guy.
