How do you show someone you just met that you're interested?(self.Blind)

Apparently eye contact/language plays a big part, but obviously...... y'know.

totally blind, I don't have much experience at all with flirting, I would probably just arrange times of chilling for movies or walks together.

Hand over your number before you part ways. If they're also interested, they'll get the hint and reach out. If not, they have a random number for their collection pleasure.

Ooo! It’s best to know your style. I’m a touchy person, so I flirt by leaning on someone rather than with words. But I have written and printed a love letter before.
My sweetheart is the traditional “ask on a date” sort, also bad at flirting with words.
Before I went blind I got the audiobook “Art of Seduction” by Robert Greene and it’s how I found out there are styles, and what mine was! I haven’t re-read it since, so I don’t know how it would translate to our VI community, but I do recommend it. It was very validating and helped me more than anything else.
And you can skip the chapters that you’re sure aren’t you! Such as, I am NOT a cleopatra... I don’t setup an elaborate event to woo.

The examples are mostly female, but male readers could absolutely enjoy it as well. And I’d also recommend “The Five Love Languages” because once you find love, that book will help you keep it.
For example, I feel loved with physical touch, but my sister needs “proof” - aka gifts.

I'm old-school and use those word things that used to be all the rage.
Real talk; Failing the confidence to out and out flirt with someone, it can be a precarious thing to navigate. With me, it's often either a long-game situation, or something that bubbles up very fast and very obviously. Even after nearly 30 years of life, I still check that the 2 of us are feeling the same thing. I second guess myself a lot and don't want to make that mistake of assuming we both share that particular headspace in a given moment.
