Answer: GROANS

How to make girl groan.
Be playful. One important part of being funny is being playful. You can do this through light teasing or always looking for the fun or humorous angle in a situation. Leave the serious stuff for serious times and watch the object of your affection become closer to you.
If you’re feeling temporarily down, try and keep the negativity to yourself. You may also want to reschedule seeing your girl until you’re feeling more upbeat. A lasting impression of you being down or negative is not the foot on which to start a meaningful relationship.
You can be playful with your girl by teasing her nicely or tickling her if she is open to it.
Other ways you can be playful are by engaging her in lighthearted and spirited conversations.
