Sweetest Things To Say To A Guy You Like.

Flirting with a guy you like by telling him sweet things, is one sure way to get him to notice you and build some chemistry between you.

However, before using some of these lines, you should be sure that there is some vibe between both of you and you have established some form of rapport first, or he may find them a little creepy.

Also, try to make them as normal as possible by incorporating them into normal conversations. That way they feel more natural and have a better impact.

24. “Damn, that smile has to be the best I’ve seen in a long while, and trust me I’ve seen plenty.

This warms and relaxes nearly every guy who hears it, although there may be the exceptional uptight guy it may not work on. And also, if the guy doesn’t fancy you back, he may give a tight-lipped or half-hearted smile so be sure like we said before that there is some connection and rapport with him first.

25. “So like, do all outfits always fit everyone so well, or is it just you?”

He will be flattered by this and may even shyly blush and say something like “I don’t know, maybe.” To which you must follow up and say, “It definitely has to be you because I haven’t seen anyone make shorts look that fashionable in a little while now.”

26. “Loafers have never really been my thing but you’ve sure made me have a rethink about them.”

This should come up naturally in a conversation about clothing. You can start the conversation casually discussing fashion trends around the world, and then throw that in and it will definitely have an impact and make him laugh or smile or both.

27. “Hey handsome, how are you doing today or how’s it going?”

This one is cliche but it’s one of the most natural sweet things to tell a guy to tell him that you think he’s attractive and hot. He will find the attention flattering.

28. “You know some guys have to try so hard to be awesome, but you don’t even have to do anything and yet ooze awesomeness.”

This also tells him that you fancy him without coming out explicitly to say it.

29. “You’ve got to teach me how you do it so effortlessly, being awesome and great at everything you do that is.

This is both a compliment and a subtle flirt. Said in the right context and at the right time, this could get you both closer because you could follow it up with specifically what it is you want him to teach you. He’ll be flattered at the thought that you think he has something valuable to teach you.
