Asking that question, to this board, is like asking “does a bear… ” well never mind.

Flirting is essential to a male/female relationship. It send the message to both that I am still desirable. While being labeled a flirt can have its good and bad sides, it still remains the enigmatic crux of the gender relationship.

I personally enjoy the flirting activity known affectionatly as “Eye Sex”… and the witty banter type.

Do you enjoy flirting, or do you just view it as an unfortunate means to an end (dating or a relationship)? What are your typical flirting tricks

Good morning all!! I do enjoy flirting; it lets me know that I still have “IT” if I can get a positive response. I look for excuses to touch a man while flirting. If a man is wearing a necklace, I’ll pick it up for a closer look, brushing his skin inadvertently. Since I like pretty eyelashes on a man, I find ways to touch them also. Subtle body language cues, like leaning forward, eyelash batting, sexy stretching, leg crossing…those work too. I have more, but I can’t give away all my secrets, lest I meet one of you guys on the street! LOL!!

Goodmorning!!

Flirting is fun, as long as it’s not taken too far…then it becomes teasing, and I don’t like to be teased. Therefore, I keep my flirting to a minimum (I think). lol Now if I’m seriously interested, let the fun begin!! But be careful, don’t let your mouth write a check your a$$ can’t cash!! hehehehe

buenos dias everyone. hey laney! i wouldn’t consider myself a flirt but because i just like to talk with people i probably come off that way sometimes. what usually happens is i introduce myself, smile, start conversation, ask questions etc. this sometimes looks like flirting when i don’t intend for it to, and then when i think i’m flirting with a guy i’m feeling he’s like…i wasn’t sure if you were feeling me. :O so i may need to switch my tactics.

i think flirting is a part of the dance that happens in dating. it goes all the way back to women dropping the handkerchief or men extending their hand to a lady for a dance. i think of it is a way to show the other person you’re interested.

I’m not much of a flirt, if at all, and I don’t usually appreciate a chick flirting with me. It seems somewhat trifling, in that my perspective on flirting is that it’s not necessarily to do with anything real or genuine, just blah-blah, bat some eyelashes, tee hee. How about some plain and simple genuine conversation about something interesting?

Flirting can be is innocent as long as you know where to draw the line. I flirt now and will do so as long as I can get away with it. I don’t do it to try to get some guy’s attention but I will do it and have done it to get out of a parking ticket, I have done it to get a better parking space when the attendant said I couldn’t park where I wanted and I have done it to break line when I didn’t have time to wait or rather didn’t want to wait. I flirt with waiters all the time when I am not with my husband. I also do it just to brighten a man’s day if he is looking gloomy and sometimes if not. Everyone likes to be told something nice ever now and then.

I have had men flirt with me with no intentions of us getting together but just to make me smile. But then you have your lamers that refuse to let up because you said something nice to them or about them. Those are the ones that you have to try to avoid.

Good Morning All

Do you enjoy flirting, or do you just view it as an unfortunate means to an end (dating or a relationship)? What are your typical flirting tricks? Would anyone ever describe you as a flirt? I really do enjoy a good flirt every now and then, especially when I am in a funky mood and a guy says “why you looking so mean?” and flashes me a broad grin. Nothing pulls me out of a funky mood faster than eyecandy flirting.

What flirting characteristics do you enjoy in a member of the opposite sex? I love a man with a beautiful smile. I also like when a guy swears I am spoken for and says he’ll just keep me company til “he” arrives. A great converser who can make “plays” of words.

What does flirting mean to you? To JustMe, flirting means, I like what I see and I want to find out more. Even if nothing arises out of the flirt, it is still fun to have a guy intentionally make me smile.

Good morning! I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!!!

Do you enjoy flirting, or do you just view it as an unfortunate means to an end (dating or a relationship)? I never realized I was a flirt until about 6 years ago (my best friend pointed it out to me). I have been shy most of my life, so I would have never approcahed a guy first. Even if a guy approached me, I would speak and look in a different direction (I didn’t want him to see me blushing). No more of that…now I can honestly say that I love to flirt…it lets me know that I still have it:-) I flirt ever chance I get…which is not too often because I don’t go out much!

JustMe…I agree with you…I love a man with a beautiful smile.

Good Morining Blog!

I enjoy a little harmless flirting. I think flirting is simply an invitation. It opens up the lines of communication between two individuals. This can definitely be fun! A glance across the room, followed by eye contact and a smile. It’s a non-verbal hello. If you are interested in going past hello, then let the “games” begin. As long as the flirting remains tasteful, then I’m all for it. When the line is crossed and it goes to far, then GAME OVER.

Like I said, a little flirting is cool, but too much of anything can get old. I have a great friend who I’ll call “The Flirt”. She’s really a fun person to hang out with and a good friend to have, but…..when we go out “The Flirt” seems to make a guest appearance. “The Flirt” spots any man over 6’0 ft (she’s tall, so she likes them tall too) and goes into full flirt mode. She just won’t let it go. Sometimes, I think that aggression is a turn off. Especially, if you are not willing to back it up. That’s when “The Flirt” becomes “The Tease”. Seriously too much is just too much. :-)

Oh no, what’s that up in the sky…it’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s DemiMan….to the rescue!!! LMAO

Sitting….I know a couple of “The Flirts” too. One chick I worked with a few yrs. back would go all out to be the first to get a guys attention (if the girls went out for lunch or drinks). She would all but throw the “p” on the table for a man, just so that he would flirt with her instead of someone else. It was funny at first, then just sad and ridiculous. The other one is much older (a friend of my mom’s) and she will take that flriting thing to annoying levels too. Once we were at a restaurant (me, her, and the kids-she’s the ex’s mother too), and she was all out flirting with some dude who rode in on a motorcycle. This same dude begins flirting with me before realizing we were together. So as we’re leaving she comments on giving him her number and I said “that dude was just flirting with me at the restaurant”, so when we pull up beside him at a light, she rolled down the window and told him to tear her number up cause he had been flirting with her daughter. Talk about funny!!!!!

What up blog:

Flirting is a wonderful game. It has varying levels though. Sometimes it is innocent, sometimes it ain’t. I myself tend to flirt innocently by nature and have been described that way, but when its for a purpose I look for her participation. I’ll do enough let her know I’m interested, her response will determine how far I go and how fast. I know how stop if there was not a proper response from subject of my curiosity.

Completely Off Topic:

What do you all think of people just stopping by your house without calling first? Do you consider it disrepectful or spontaneous?

Yesterday, I heard my doorbell ring when I was getting ready to go run some errands. I have an issue with people just popping by anyways, so I didn’t even bother to go to the door and see who it was since I hadn’t received any calls to say I’m in your neighborhood. I looked out the bedroom window and saw a familiar car drive off. Now saying to myself That couldn’t have been, who I think it was. Then receiving a text message, saying “where r u”. Ummmmm…….WTH?! ?! It was a guy that I met a few months ago and we’ve hung out a couple of times, but we’re not on the level that you just come over unannounced. Obviously, he thought nothing of it, because he later told me he stopped by and didn’t get an answer. I just think that if you’re not seriously dating someone, it’s not a good idea to stop over without calling. Never go to another grown person’s house unannounced or you may get your grown feelings hurt.

I love this city because I’m outnumbered by the women, and being that I’m drug free, and a non criminal (thought I’m not perfect) I have no problem getting my fair share. Seems lately that a lot of older women flirt with me. I don’t know how to react half the time, because even though I like older women, I’m intimidated by them.

Ok, I have to chime in on this one. Sitting….I would have straight up told dude not to ever do that again. When he casually mentioned that he had stopped by, I would have politely (maybe not) asked him, “did you call to see if that was okay first?”. Trust, he would have been clear on where I stand with that, it is UNacceptable.

Someone must be really comfrtable if they feel they can come by unannounced…LOL Its real disrepectful though, never would pull that one. When I was involved I didn’t do that and I had keys, its a matter a of respect. I know I would be p** if it was done to me, because I value everyone’s privacy.

I think I am going to just ‘lurk’ on this subject. By the tone of the ladies notes, I do get the impression that men take a woman flirting more seriously than the lady herself.
