So, lately, I've been meeting a lot of guys, and for some reason or other they've all been interested in me (I think it's the spring, everyone's been getting together lately!)... the thing is, I'm really shy, so if I actually like a guy he tends to lose interest in me pretty quickly because he assumes I'm not interested. how would I step past flirting to an actual hook-up without the help of alcohol, in enough time to actually make things happen?

Since you are shy don't overdo it. Try to relax and smile reasonably often. Nod in agreement to small talk. Touch his forearm occasionally. Good luck. :D

Yes, the touching is apparently a big one. This stupid courtship rituals would be awesome if there was an RFC for them.

Too many guys easily lose interest in women very quickly. It all seems very odd to me... Once I develop interest, I never lose it... Actually getting interested, on the other hand, takes a month to actually happen...

First off don't drink too much. Pace yourself.

Other than that touch him. Touch his arm. Touch his back. Hug him. Do lots of physical stuff to show you are interested. Don't over do it and don't be touching him non stop. Also tell him to close his eyes then tell him "I like you" and kiss his lips.

These are all sweet things you can do to let him know your interested.

Also being shy is not such a bad thing.
It just means you need to be comfortable with a guy before you get intimate.

Another thing you could do is throw something at him. Then when he looks up at you, smile and giggle.
