How to flirt on the phone??
Hi, I'm a 14 y/o female in high school. There's this guy I like and we talk on the phone. Well, sometimes he'll flirt and I just don't know how to respond. I've had severe social anxiety my whole life and I don't want to embarrass myself or anything. How can I be more comfortable and flirt back??

If he's talking to you on the phone, then he already likes you and is probably aware that you are shy or have social anxiety, to me its one and the same as I was shy at your age and it was a fear of interacting with other people socially. I just got tired of being shy all the time and wanted to learn how to overcome that.
The best thing I found to handle fear like that is to admit it. When you face the fear that way, by sharing it with someone else, yes, it makes you vulnerable if sharing with the wrong person but if it's someone who already likes you, or a friend, that person will do what they can to tell you it's okay and once they know that you are afraid you might say something wrong, you are released from the anxiety of wondering about their reaction if you say something wrong because they already told you thats okay and they understand. So if you do mess up and say something awkward, likely they'll reasure you and you both may find yourselves able to laugh at any blunders and move on with your conversation and your friendship. It worked for me. Hope it works for you.
