I used to just ignore them completely. Not make eye contact, and not acknowledge their presence at all. That was when I was REALLY shy, and I was scared of everyone, haha
I've changed a lot in the past few months though, so now I'm pretty much just myself... I don't really consciously flirt, I just get sarcastic, I tease, I smile and laugh a lot, and I make a lot of jokes. I don't know if that's even flirting, but it's what I do. Though that's my natural personality, so you tell me what that means, haha
With the guy I'm interested in now, I've found that I'm not even concerned about looking him in the eye. He's basically the first guy I've liked since I "changed", so this is all kind of (*cough*really*cough*) new. I'm learning all sorts of new things about myself, so it's kind of cool :-)
One thing I'm still having trouble with is when I see him walking towards me, I have this little conflicted battle in my head "do I look up at him and smile, or should I pretend that I haven't seen him...?" I'm the kind of person that is always HYPER aware of my surroundings, so I ALWAYS know if he's around. I'm just not sure if it's a good thing if I make it known that I always know when he's there... you know? Haha, sorry if that's really confusing. :-)

I quite simply forget to breathe, I become very aware of my heart beat, get a little hot under the old collar, fidget, if particularly brave on that day I will look up just in time to catch his eye (oh those eyes)and then look straight back down at the ground or the opposite direction... until he passes, then I can finally let out a big *sigh* and a *swoon* and then curse myself for not be cool!
I then go on to think about him for the rest of the day, going over that moment over and over again. Continuing to still not be cool.

I tell myself, "Be cool, Be cool" and I precede to be uncool. I have to fight with myself just to be able to utter a simple sentence to him. I get fidgety because being around him makes me forget how to breathe. And I smile a lot because I'm so happy that I'm talking to him. Lastly, sometimes I say dumb sh*t and when he's not looking, I slap myself on the forehead for saying it.
My god this question reminds me of what happened yesterday.
I was in the locker room at work getting ready to start my shift. So clocking on time arrives and I walked out the door and bam! My eye candy is about to walk into me. So what did, I do? I squeaked! D: Nothing else, just went 'Eep!' and hurried off to start my shift :S Normally, I'm not that retarded but he startled the hell out of me :Si might be a little more hesitant with things to say than usual but for the most part smiley, giggly and just show him I'm approachable and flirty towards him :)
I get quiet. & my brain stops working. then I leave--because I am accustomed to being in control of my actions. don't like not being able to talk or think. its disturbing- and a waste of time.
I used to become very nervous and laugh a lot. Now, I'm pretty calm and collected around a guy I'm interested in. I joke around, I flirt, I smile, etc.
i act like the worst possible version of myself. giggly, stupid,
wen my crush comes near me I'm quiet and girlie instead of being my usual loud tomboy self
