Instead of faking traits you think she’ll like, try emphasizing your best qualities. Sagittarius women are famous for having no type romantically and also for being able to sense inauthenticity from a mile away. It can be super tempting to try to act a certain way to get a crush to like you, but with Sagittarius women, this isn't probably the wisest choice. She likes all kinds of people for all kinds of reasons, so try playing up one of your many genuine, fabulous strengths!
- If you're a great listener, for instance, show that through your texts. If you know she's had a bad day, you can send a message to say you're there for her. "I don't want to pry, but I know today was rough for you. If you ever wanted someone to talk to, I'm always available. 😊"
- Or, if you're proud of your sense of style, send her an outfit-of-the-day text. A quick mirror selfie with a message like, "What do you think of these shoes with this shirt? Too much?" will show off your style in a casual, fun way.
- Being totally real with your Sagittarius crush will have her head over heals for you!

Keep it light.

When flirting with a Sagittarius, avoid super heavy subjects. It’s a huge myth that Sagittarius ladies are shallow or never willing to talk about the serious stuff. But it is true that in the beginning, she probably wants you to choose light and fun topics for conversation. You'll be attractive to her if you keep it casual, fresh, and playful!
- Instead of opening up a conversation about your major feelings for her, try mentioning something funny that happened in your day. “Barista: Enjoy your coffee! Me: Thanks, you too. Barista: What? 🤨🤨...Why am I like this.”
- Instead of going for a serious, emotional question, try asking her about her favorite movies as a kid. Try taking a flirty approach, “What was your favorite movie series growing up? Just FYI, if you’re not about to say The Land Before Time, we’re going to have a major issue. 🦕🌋”

Be blunt.

- Don't be afraid to change the subject. If you feel the conversation with your Sagittarius crush running dry, mix it up. "What actor would play you in a movie about your life? I have some picks, but I'm not sure I'd be able to find anyone as beautiful as you... 🤩"

Don't grill her.

So, don’t interrogate her if she isn’t always available. She’s all about random day trips and leaving the device at home, so if she’s hard to reach for a little stretch, try not to read into it. If a Sagittarius woman gets the feeling she's being trapped, she’ll definitely want to bolt. So instead, just remember her long pauses probably don't have anything to do with you!^{[7]
