1) If they're not funny, they're not funny. finding a way to make them funny would work but really isn't necessary.
2) nonchalance can easily be mapped into rejection. Mae West: A man is more interested in a woman who is interested in him than a nice pair of legs.
3) What an utter and complete turn-off. Next! If I can't find out about you and what you like, then you are either a) too shallow to care about or b) not really interested and wondering how you can get away.
4) straighten his tie? That's assuming a *lot* of intimacy. Brushing the arm, keeping eye contact, casually resting your hand on his arm work though.
5) The first part of this works. One of my favorite questions that I ask when I feel a rapport building is "What motivates you? What gets you going?" But I need to know this about you as well as expressing my own.
It's a game of give and take. Otherwise it's just a modified form of "Oh, you're so big and strong!". *shudder*
The greatest gift that you can give is attention. While flirting concentrate on him. As he shares of himself, share of yourself to the degree you are comfortable. Aloofness, vague anawers, and unwillingness to share of yourself as I share of myself are the best ways for me to move onto the next person.
