Introduction


Flirting plays a major role when it comes to dating and interacting with the opposite sex. Whether you are male or female, flirting is a key and vital element to successful and positive interaction with others.

Do you realize the power of flirting?

Can you tell when someone is flirting with you and what it means?

Dating and Mating: The Power of Flirting provides a brief, but comprehensive overview of this all important art when it comes to dating and mingling with members of the opposite sex. Learning how to flirt, and learning how to accurately interpret another person’s flirtatious signals is an art form that every man and woman should learn.



What Is Flirting?


What exactly is flirting?

Flirting is a form of communication between the sexes that can be non-verbal (body language) or communicated orally. Flirting usually contains overtones of sexual promise and subsequent connotations. In essence, flirting is a very powerful art form, and one that can raise levels of interest and desire to the point of natural intoxication.

Sexual Chemistry

Pheromones are a natural substance inherent in the human body that are excreted externally. These substances become airborne and have the ability to attract others, generating a social response. Biologists defined pheromones in 1959 as a substance that attracts and triggers a sexual response in animals of the same species. The same goes for the human race.

That elusive thing called sexual chemistry is often a result of one person’s pheromones being picked up on by a member of the opposite sex. And the other partner is also attracted to the pheromones of the first person.

Pheromones are a natural scent (although not offensive body odor). These smells are obviously transferred subtly through the air and sensed by the nose of another. We all have individual smells and pheromones. While our pheromones may attract one person, they will not necessarily attract another.
