First dates can be exciting and nerve-wracking all at once. You’re meeting someone new, learning about their interests, and trying to figure out if there’s chemistry between you. And then there’s flirting, that delicate dance of showing someone you’re interested without being too forward or awkward.
Flirting doesn’t have to be a high-pressure situation. In fact, it can be the most fun part of getting to know someone. Whether you're meeting someone on MixerDates or any other platform, the most important thing is to be genuine, stay calm, and let the connection develop naturally.
If you’ve ever found yourself wondering how to flirt on a first date without feeling uncomfortable, you’re not alone. Everyone has their awkward moments, but the more you understand the art of flirting, the easier it becomes. In this article, we’ll break down how to flirt in a way that feels natural, exciting, and authentic to who you are. So, let's dive in and learn how to make the most of your first date experience—without overthinking it.
When it comes to flirting, confidence is key. But what does it really mean to be confident on a first date? Confidence doesn’t mean you need to be perfect, or even outgoing—it simply means being comfortable in your own skin and showing up as your authentic self.
Have you ever noticed how people are drawn to those who radiate self-assurance? It’s not about bragging or dominating the conversation—it’s about presenting yourself with ease. If you feel good about yourself, it will naturally show. A great smile, good posture, and eye contact can go a long way in making a good first impression.
For instance, think about the last time someone walked into a room and immediately caught your attention—not because they were the most attractive person in the room, but because of their energy. They were confident, they were present, and they made you feel at ease. That’s the kind of confidence you want to project on your date.
When you're confident, you're not worried about saying the perfect thing. Instead, you focus on enjoying the moment, making the other person feel comfortable, and letting the connection happen naturally. That’s the magic of confidence—it allows you to be present, fun, and, most importantly, yourself.
Let’s face it—no one wants to feel like they’re being “worked” or put through a game. That’s why subtlety is such a powerful tool when it comes to flirting. It's all about showing interest without being over-the-top or too obvious.
Flirting doesn’t always mean complimenting someone non-stop or using cheesy pickup lines. In fact, the most successful flirting is the kind that happens behind the scenes—subtle, playful, and lighthearted. Think about the little moments, like a teasing comment about how they always order the same thing at a restaurant or the way you laugh at a silly joke they make.
The key is to find a balance. A simple smile or a playful comment can convey interest without being too much. For example, if your date tells you they love hiking but they tend to get lost easily, you could say something like, “So, you’re telling me you need a personal guide? I could get behind that!” It’s lighthearted, humorous, and most importantly, it keeps the conversation fun without putting too much pressure on the situation.
By keeping it subtle, you allow your date to feel at ease. It takes the pressure off them to be perfect and allows both of you to enjoy the interaction more naturally. Flirting doesn’t need to be a performance—it’s about creating an environment where both of you can feel comfortable and authentic.
Now, let’s talk about something incredibly important in the flirting game: active listening. When we’re on a date, we often get caught up in thinking about what to say next, how we’re coming across, or if we’re being interesting enough. But the best way to make an impression? Truly listening to your date.
Active listening means you’re fully engaged in the conversation, giving your date your full attention and responding thoughtfully. It’s about showing that you care about what they’re saying and that you’re genuinely interested in getting to know them better. When you listen actively, you’re also giving them space to open up, and that can create an immediate connection.
For example, if your date mentions they recently traveled to Japan, instead of simply saying, “That’s cool!” you could follow up with something like, “What was the most memorable experience you had there?” This shows that you’re not just hearing their words but are genuinely curious and invested in their experiences. It’s a great way to build rapport and let them know you’re not just there to impress them—you’re there to connect.
While your words are important, body language often speaks louder than anything you can say. Whether you realize it or not, your body is constantly communicating how you feel. How you sit, stand, and move tells your date whether you’re relaxed, engaged, or distracted.
Small gestures can go a long way in flirting. A light touch on the arm, a subtle lean in when they’re speaking, or maintaining good eye contact—all these body language cues help signal your interest. And the great thing is, when done naturally, these cues can be just as effective as words.
For example, if you’re sitting at a café on your date and you lean in slightly when they’re sharing a funny story, you’re not just showing that you’re interested—you’re inviting them into your space. It’s an invitation to connect further. And when they respond by leaning in too, that’s when the magic happens—the unspoken connection that tells you both that there’s potential for more.
Flirting through body language doesn’t mean making grand gestures or being overly touchy. It’s about being present and showing that you’re engaged with your date in a subtle, but meaningful way.
It’s easy to get caught up in overthinking how to flirt or trying to figure out if your date is into you. But here’s a secret—when you let go of the pressure and allow yourself to have fun, everything flows much more naturally. Flirting on a first date doesn’t need to feel like a test or an assignment. It’s supposed to be a fun, lighthearted experience that sets the stage for more great dates ahead.
When was the last time you had a genuinely fun date? Was it when you were trying too hard to impress, or when you were both laughing, chatting, and enjoying each other's company? Flirting becomes effortless when you're present, enjoying the moment, and letting the connection grow naturally.
Sometimes, it's the small moments—like sharing a laugh or swapping embarrassing stories—that make a first date truly special. When you focus on having fun, you create an environment where both of you can relax, flirt, and let the chemistry grow. That’s the secret to a great date.
One of the best things about using a platform like MixerDates is that it takes the guesswork out of the equation. By connecting with someone who already shares your interests and values, you’ve got a head start on making a real connection.

When you’re already on the same page with your date, flirting comes more easily.

Whether you’re talking about favorite hobbies, movies, or life goals, the conversation flows naturally, making the flirting feel effortless.

The problem is that, like Don Quixote, in front of people who are not tolerant of his dreams, the problem is not that he is a "knight" who just "assumes" himself, but that he is "a knight" even though he is not really a knight. You should know that you are acting.''
問題はドン・キホーテのように、みずからの夢に寛大ではない人々の前で、ただ「思いこんでいる」というだけの「騎士」ぶりではなく、じぶんさほんとうは騎士ではないのに「騎士を演じているのだ」ということを知っておけということである。
Life is a game anyway, and even if you only accept the facts as facts, time passes in the blink of an eye.
If you don't have the imagination to see a windmill as a giant, it's not interesting or weird. Rather than just being a middle-aged naive person who is obsessed with that dream and stubbornly affirms himself, I would like to have the leeway to say, ``I'm just having a little fun.''
We live in a society where the greatest enemy of facts is truth.
どうせ、生きることはゲームであり、事実を事実としてだけ受け入れていても、あっというまに月日は流れる。
風車を巨人に見たてる位の想像力でもなければおもしろくもおかしくもない。ただその夢の虜になって、頑なに自己肯定する中年の世間知らずであるよりは、「ちょっとプレイしているのさ」とうそぶく余裕がほしい。
In a discussion about the case, someone raised an objection to "someone who was not a party to the incident, who was not from Nagasaki, and who was not from Hiroshima, complaining about it. Seeing that opinion made me aware of my position, so I will say what I must say.
I was born in Nagasaki and am a third-generation A-bomb survivor.
I say this because I grew up hearing the stories of the A-bomb damage directly from those who suffered from the atomic bombings.
I feel that it is unacceptable for someone like me to speak about the A-bomb damage.
However, there are few A-bomb survivors left, so I will speak up.
In Nagasaki, children grow up hearing stories about the atomic bombing. We were made to sit in the gymnasium of an elementary school in the middle of summer, where there was not even an air conditioner or a fan, and for nearly an hour we were made to listen to stories about the atomic bombing. It was hard for me anyway.
I think it was even more painful for the elderly people who told the stories. But I don't think an elementary school kid could have imagined that. I, too, have forgotten most of the stories I was told. I can only remember one or two at most.
Another thing is that at this time of year, pictures of the victims of the atomic bombing are pasted up in the hallways.
In other parts of the country, these are grotesque images that would cause a fuss from the parents who are always nagging about them.
Recently, even the A-bomb museum has become more gentle in its exhibits, and most of the radical and horrifying exhibits that would have traumatized visitors have been removed.
I don't know how elementary schools now teach about the A-bomb damage. But when I was in elementary school, there were photos on display.
There was one photo that I just couldn't face as an elementary school student. It was a picture of Taniguchi Sumiteru(谷口稜曄). If you search for it, you can find it. It is a shocking picture, but I would still like you to see it.
I couldn't pass through the hallway where the photo was displayed, so I always took the long way around to another floor to avoid seeing the photo.
My grandfather was under the bomb and went to the burnt ruins of the bomb to look for his sister. I can understand now that he couldn't turn away or go another way.
There would have been a mountain of people still alive and moaning in the ruins of the burnt ruins. There would have been many more who would have died out in agony.
My grandfather walked for miles and miles, towing a rear wheelchair, through the narrow streets of rubble-strewn Nagasaki in search of his sister.
My grandfather was not a child then. But of course there were elementary school children who did the same thing he did. I am not speculating that there were. There were. I heard the story from him, and I still remember it.
A young brother and sister found their father's corpse in the ruins of the fire and burned it themselves. They didn't have enough wood to burn him alive, and when they saw his brain spilling out, they ran away, and that was the last time they ever saw him again.
I can never forget that story I heard when I was a kid, and even now it's painful and painful, my hands are shaking and I'm crying.
I keep wondering how that old man who ran away from his father's brain was able to expose to the public the unimaginably horrible trauma, the scar that will never heal, even after all these years.
Now I think I understand a little.
Why I can't help but talk about my grandfather and the old man now, even as I remember my own trauma.
Because this level of suffering is nothing compared to their words being forgotten.
It's nothing compared to the tremendous suffering that once existed that will be forgotten, like my hands shaking, my heart palpitating, my nose running with vertigo, and so on.
My grandfather, who went through an unimaginable hell, lived to see his grandchildren born, and met his sister's death in the ruins of the fire.
In other words, my grandfather was one of the happiest people in the ruins of the fire.
My grandfather and that old man were, after all, just people wading in the depths of hell.
I think that the suffering that even people who had experienced unimaginable pain could not imagine was lying like pebbles on the ground in Nagasaki 78 years ago, and no one paid any attention to it.
Their suffering, which I can't even imagine, is nothing compared to the countless, unimaginable suffering they witnessed, which they pretend never happened.
Memories fade inexorably with each passing human mouth. The memories that those people could never allow to be forgotten are almost forgotten.
The tremendous suffering of 78 years ago is mostly gone, never to be recounted.
Those who suffered the most from the atomic bombing died rotting in the ruins of the fire without being able to tell anyone about it.
Many of those who saw it with their own eyes kept their mouths shut and took it with them to their graves. Most of those who spoke a few words are still in their graves.
Compared to the words of the old men, my own words are so light. I would rather keep my mouth shut than speak in such light words.
But still, someone has to take over. I realize that even my words, which are so light, are only the top of the voices that are left in this world to carry on the story of the atomic bombing.
I know how it feels to think that I am the only one. Still, I hope that you will not shut your mouth. I know that I have closed my mouth because I thought I shouldn't talk about it, and that is the result.
Sometimes I almost choose to stop imagining the unimaginable suffering and live my life consuming other people's suffering for fun.
I am writing this while I still have some imagination of the suffering of the old people whose voices, faces, and even words I can no longer recall.
ロシアの学校でブルマーが使われていたかどうか調べてきたが、はっきりとした結果は得られなかった。確かに、それらしい写真がないわけではないのだが、提灯ブルマーなのかショーツ型ブルマーなのか短パンなのか確認できない。おそらく混在しているし、時代による変遷があった可能性もある。
加えて、ブルマーを指す言葉がみつからない。ロシアの制服の歴史に関しては、ロシア語版のウィキペディアにしっかりとまとめられているのだが、体操着についてはなぜか言及がない。
ロシアの体育の歴史についてはこちらが詳しい。すまないが、ブルマーについて触れられていなかったので、翻訳するのが面倒だ。

そんななか、比較的鮮明にショーツ型ブルマーと確認できる画像が見つかった。
しかし、タイトルである「Девочка Купальник Физкультура в школе 1973 Дети Гимнастика (2 кл)」を翻訳すると、「少女レオタード学校での体育1973年児童体操（2年生）」となる。どう見てもブルマーなのに、レオタードと出てくる。また、試みに「レオタード」となっている「Купальник」で検索すると、なぜか水着ばかりヒットする。
ロシア語ウィキペディアの「Купальникのページも、水着について書いてあるようだ。
https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9A%D1%83%D0%BF%D0%B0%D0%BB%D1%8C%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%BA」
しかし、上の方を見ると「Купальник (спортивный)」というリンクがある。ここに飛んでみると、レオタードに関する画像が出てくる。
https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9A%D1%83%D0%BF%D0%B0%D0%BB%D1%8C%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%BA_(%D1%81%D0%BF%D0%BE%D1%80%D1%82%D0%B8%D0%B2%D0%BD%D1%8B%D0%B9)
結論。ロシア語ではレオタードと水着は同義語。また、人によってはレオタードとブルマーを区別していない。少なくとも体操着の総称として使っている（？）。
ロシアのブルマーについては結局ほとんどわからなかったが、このちょっとした雑学が得られただけでも、よしとしたい。
さて、いろいろとブルマーについて検索してきたが、思わぬ弊害が生じてきた。気がつくと、無意識にツイッターやグーグルで「ブルマ」と検索しているのである。そればかりではない。検索結果には幼い子供の写真が含まれているせいか、ストライクゾーンの年齢がどんどん下がっていくのである。危険を感じたため、一旦ブルマーに関する調査はここで切り上げる。今回の調査がちゃらんぽらんなのはそのためだ。
自分が学生の時に同級生のブルマーで欲情するならともかく、十八歳未満の女性に執着するのはなんだか嫌だ。
そんななかで、なんとなく「おっぱい」と画像検索したのだが、その中で巨乳の女性が縄で縛られ、胸を強調した姿のまま笑顔を見せているのを見て、思わずときめいてしまった。ひょっとしたら自分は新しい性癖を開花させてしまったのではないか、と思う。もともとほっそりしたおっぱいの小さな女性が好みだったのだが、おっぱいが大きい女性もきれいだと感じた。
あと、最近はちょっとグラビアに興味が出始めている。思春期にグラビアの出ている漫画雑誌を恥ずかしくて買えず、しかも、グラビアアイドルなんてみんな同じようなエッチなお姉さんだと思い込んで、反発していた。
けれども、最近ツイッターで仲村まひろという女性が、バトントワリングをしている姿を見て、素直にかっこいいと思ってしまった。一芸に秀でていて、目標をもった個人として初めてグラビアアイドルを見た瞬間だった。アイドルとか全然興味なかったけど、頑張っている人を見るのはいいものだと、この年にしてやっとわかった。
それと九条ねぎという女性も気になっている。以前行きつけにしていたバニーガールバーLOFT101の看板モデルを務めていることで知ったのである。このお店はリーズナブルなのでおすすめだ。何を言ってるんでしょうね、我ながら。でも、久しぶりに行きたくなってしまった。
ブルマーについてはしばらくお休み。今後は文体を変えた僕と増田のどこかですれ違うことでしょう。
またどこかで会いましょう。
