INPUT ARTICLE: Article: It might sound trite to say that eyes are windows to the soul, but in a lot of ways, that seems to be true. Locking eyes for three seconds can speak volumes, especially if you conclude by slowly dragging your eyes away. Eye contact has even greater impact if you get caught staring at person you are interested in. Make sure that when you get caught, however, you quickly look away. In doing so, you let him or her know that you were just caught in the act and not merely staring into space. One thing to avoid doing, of course, is staring the other person down. Eye contact conveys a certain level of intimacy and flirtatiousness when done right. When overdone, though, you can quickly intimidate someone and ruin your chances for good. When you greet the object of your affection, smile. Smile while talking to him or her. Smile when you part ways. There is something warm and friendly about a smile, and wielding one whenever your crush is around will help convey just how happy you are about the interaction you have. Another great thing about a smile is that it really demonstrates the excitement you feel whenever you find yourself around this person. A smile that flashes your pearly whites and makes your eyes sparkle will leave very little room for doubt in the other person's mind. You do not need to dress up every time you see him or her, but as a general rule, put in a minimum amount of effort to look good. Showing that you care about how you look in front of this person will hint at the fact that you have a reason to care about such things. On a similar note, if your crush specifically said that a particular piece of jewelry or garment looked nice on you, wear it frequently. In doing so, you can show that you really value how that person views you. Find excuses to make brief, subtle touches. A casual touch on the arm or knee while you talk can work wonders. Even these seemingly innocent forms of touch convey a sense of intimacy, and by initiating them, you are telling the other person that you want to be close. Every time you touch this person, you should use a very gentle, light touch. A hearty pat on the back can be a friendly sign, but it does not do much to convey romantic interest. If possible, move in for a hug when you greet or say goodbye, as well. This form of physical contact is often reserved for people who are close, so it could help bridge the gap between you both. If you do hug when you say goodbye, make sure that your hug lingers. Do not let go immediately; instead, let your hands linger before hesitantly sliding them away. This move will show that you are reluctant to say your farewells. More precisely, touch areas of the body that seem innocent while also hinting at intimacy. Touch your face or hair, or slowly stroke your own arm a bit. Use your tongue to moisten your lips every now and then. By touching yourself in ways like these, you can hint to the other person that you really wish they were touching you, instead. You need to make sure that you do not seem too suggestive or creepy when you do this, though. Act like your self-touching is subconscious and casual, rather than making it obvious that it is entirely for his or her benefit. One of the worst things you can do is to have your hands all over yourself while staring the other person down with a hungry look in your eyes.

SUMMARY: Make eye contact. Smile. Look your best. Touch your crush. Touch yourself.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If you have the Android device, there are many different ways you can block the person. You can use the Android messaging app, use a third-party app, or contact your phone carrier. To use the Android messaging app, tap and hold the text message from the person you want to block. Your phone will then ask you if you want to "delete the message" or "add to spam." Choose "add to spam" to stop receiving messages. You can also download a blocking app from the Google Play Store to help you manage your texts. If none of those options work for you, you can call or go to your phone carrier's website to add numbers to your block list. Your iPhone has a built-in block feature. Go to your contacts menu and choose the person that you want to block and click "Edit." The very last option should say "Block this Caller." Simply choose that option to stop the person from texting, calling, or facetiming you. If you need to block a number that is not saved in your contacts, you can block the person by going to the text message directly. Choose "details" in the top right corner of your phone. Press the "details" button and then tap the "i" icon. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and press "Block this Caller." These methods will work for an iPhone, iPad, or iPhone touch. Contact or go to your phone carrier's website to block phone numbers. If you call your carrier, let them know that you want to add some numbers to the blacklist. On the carrier's website, go to your "my account or my preferences" page to find the options for blocking numbers. You may able to block a number on your phone without going through your phone carrier, but this varies by device. Most social media platforms including Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram will allow you to block another user. This is very helpful because a person may still try to contact you on social media even if you have blocked their phone number. Keep in mind that the person will be able to find out that you have blocked them. You can usually find the blocking information in the privacy settings or the help section. Blocking the person is helpful for both you and the other person. You do not have to see any of the messages, and you will not be tempted to respond to any of them. It is up to you if you want to let the person know that you are blocking them.

SUMMARY:
Block the person on your Android phone. Block the person on your iPhone. Block text messages on other phones. Block the person on social media.
