Astrologer & Psychic MediumExpert Interview. 12 November 2019.} In fact, the more he likes you, the shyer he's likely to be in your presence. Once he knows you're interested, it'll be a lot easier for him to step up and start flirting too.

- "Hey! We met the other day. How's it going?"
- "Hi, David, great to see you! What've you been up to?"
- If you got his number, text him. "Hi! This is Jaime—we met at that party last week. I had a great time chatting with you!"

He prefers to use subtle body language when flirting. Eye contact allows him to share an intimate moment with you without being too forward or suggestive. He may even avoid your eyes at first but work up to more eye contact as he gains confidence. Holding your gaze is a sign that he wants to be more open with you!
- Make sure you're not starting a staring match and focus on following his queues. If he starts holding eye contact more often, you can do the same.

3

Dress simply but elegantly.

Virgos appreciate sophisticated clothes and a well-groomed appearance. Focus on looking neat and wearing simple but fitted clothing that flatters your figure. Virgo men don't look for the flashiest or most revealing person in the room; they look for someone with a refined personal style and an air of sophistication about them.^{[2]XResearch source}
- As earth signs, Virgos appreciate soft earthy tones. Wear lots of creams, browns, and blacks, with pops of green or orange if you want some color.
- You can also wear quality fabrics to impress him, like silk and suede.
- Be detail-oriented and pay attention to your hair, nails, and accessories. Make sure everything matches and looks tidy.

Be a little mysterious.

Encourage Virgo's natural curiosity and let him get to know you slowly. Answer questions about yourself when he asks, but try to be a little vague at first. Rather than giving him the whole story, offer a few details and hint that there's more to tell. Always save a couple of stories for the next time you see him, so he keeps trying to learn more about you.
- "I love exploring new places! I got to do a lot of traveling as a kid."
- "I went to a great college in New York! Got some funny stories to tell from those days, too. What about you?"

5

Encourage him with compliments.

- "Your perspective is so refreshing! I always have something new to think about when we talk."

Ask him for help.

Make him laugh.

Dry, witty humor is common among Virgo guys. Appeal to that sense of humor by engaging him in playful banter and offering up dry or sarcastic remarks that will amuse him.

- "Of course I talk to myself—sometimes I need some expert advice."

- "Good luck at work today! You worked really hard, and your presentation is going to be amazing."
- "Hey, handsome! How was your day today? You've really been going above and beyond lately at work."

Stay positive.

Be patient.

This sign can't be rushed into anything, especially romance. Being flirty with a Virgo requires a balancing act between showing your interest without scaring him off by getting too intense. He'll appreciate you taking the initiative, but then he'll need space to decide how he feels and flirts back on his own terms.
- If you start the flirting, for example, let him be the one to take the next step and ask you out. That way, you're letting him know that you're interested without pushing him for more.

Pick a place where can have a nice, long conversation and really get to know him. A movie theater or crowded place definitely isn't ideal.
