Because we recently looked at how flirting with our husbands can benefit our marriages, I thought it’d be a good idea to consider some ways to flirt. After all, if we start giggling excessively or winking at our husbands all the time they may think something is wrong!
Thankfully, there are a lot of easy ways to flirt. My husband has been encouraged as I’ve tried several of these. Would your husband feel similarly?
Easy ways to flirt with your husband
- Pay him an unexpected compliment.
- Spend a little extra time kissing him goodbye before he leaves for work.
- Surprise him with an unexpected date night.
- Make him heart-shaped pancakes for breakfast.
- Leave a brief love note on the bathroom mirror for him to find in the morning. You can write it on the mirror in lipstick for dramatic effect or write it on a sticky note that you stick to the mirror for easier cleanup.
- Dig out an attractive nightgown that you haven’t worn in a while and wear it to bed tonight.
- Next time he enters the room, undress him with your eyes (i.e., slowly look up and down his body). Smile at him when he notices what you’re doing.
- On a cold day, sneak out and warm up his car before he leaves for work.
- Send him flirty text messages all day long. Tell him what you find attractive about him, why you love him, that you miss him, etc.
- Stroke his thigh under the dinner table.
- Hold hands while you walk through the grocery store or mall.
- Go to a movie and sit in the back row where you can cuddle.
- Go outside and dance during a rainstorm.
- Send a love note in his lunch.
- Slip into the shower with him when he isn’t expecting it.
- Write “I love you” or compliment him on his Facebook wall.
- Buy his favorite candy bar while at the store and give it to him with a note that explains why you’re sweet on him.
- Write him a love poem or, if you’re not a poet, share a classic love poem with him.
- Next time you’re alone together at home, show some skin. Wear a short skirt or don’t button your shirt up all the way.
- Take him a cold glass of water when he is working in the yard and let him know just how smokin’ hot he looks.

I know after 20 years of marriage I sometimes get stuck in a rut and don’t do these sorts of things. It’s amazing how such small things can make a big difference. I’ll try to remember to do a few of these things this week. Thanks, Shannon.
Shannon says
Yes, even the smallest gestures can have significant impacts! I hope you are able to use some of the ideas and that they bless your marriage.

Heaven says
Thank you for all these easy reminders of ways to make my man feel special. I too often get in the rut of child care and housecleaning to let him know!
Shannon says
That’s what happens here, too. Many of these ideas are so easy, though, that they fit right in amid the childcare and housecleaning tasks.
Summer says
These are wonderful ideas. It can be quite easy to allow things to get in the way and we forget to do these things 🙂 Thanks for these tips!
Shannon says
All the things that keep us busy can be quite distracting, can’t they? Hopefully this inspires us all to focus a little more on our husbands.
Karen says
It’s so easy to forget that for men, physical affirmation equals love, so these things are very important to them to feel accepted and affirmed. thanks for the suggestions!
Shannon says
This is true for so many of our husbands, so we definitely need to include gestures that affirm them physically. Great reminder, Karen!
