I don't understand what I do wrong

Basically, I'm awful at showing guys I'm interested in them.

There's a guy who I flirt with mostly through text because we don't see each other too often and we've made it pretty clear to each other that we're into each other.

The other day I ran into him a few times and later he told me that I didn't seem interested in him at all. I managed to convince him it was because I was in a bad mood but the truth is I thought I was putting that message across, but I guess I wasn't. I guess this is why I'm 19 and have never had a serious boyfriend :P

Basically I want to know how I can show I'm interested in people? And don't say "smile, flirt, laugh" etc. because I do that and it gets me friend zoned! If you do say some of these things pleeeease elaborate lol

Touch. You've gotta break the touching barrier. And not that stupid "give me a hug ole buddy ole pal" thing. Put your hand on their shoulders, and slowly rub it or drag you hand slowly down their arm. Go up and down if you want. You can lean on them, if that doesn't annoy them. Not like a "leaning on the wall lean" but a hey look how our bodies fit together, lean. And put your head/chin on their shoulder if you two are really comfortable.

That's the make or breaker. If you put your head/face too close to their head space and they're not into you, you will know right away. If they're into you, it should flatter/fluster them.

At least hat's always been my experience.

Well if you have been trying to make a relationship with guys over text, then in person, that will explain why you aren't good when you meet them in person. Start going out more, and less on the phone, and that will reduce the awkwardness away, and you'll start picking up on how to act when your with boys.
