Do You Enjoy Flirting?

I like it when someone I'm attracted to flirts with me (starting the flirting) but I usually feel too uncomfortable to start flirting with someone who isn't flirting with me. I almost always miss the signs of interest if someone likes me that way so they generally need to be extremely forward for me to realize they're interested in me.

I've definitely flirted and started the flirting with my wife and previous girlfriends once we were already involved, but by then I know they're interested in me.
 
i used to be very good at flirting. probably still could be but i've no desire for what it attracts these days. men are not the same anymore. the ones i know anyway are just a bunch of dirty birds.

It's kind of a strange feeling when you first realize you have a lot more fun by yourself than you do with other people!
Well, There ARE afew things which are the exception!

Do You Enjoy Flirting?​


Never comfy with it

Umpty ump years ago, when single, I pretty much cut to the chase......'Git in the car' (short trip)

On the receiving end, seemed those that flirted weren't worth the time....... or the medical issues a short time afterwards
 
Flirting or coquetry is a social and sexual behaviour involving spoken or written communication, as well as body language, by one person to another, either to suggest interest in a deeper relationship with the other person, or if done playfully, for amusement. To me flirting sends out the wrong message, but I do find fidus Achates most acceptable. Enjoying the social past time of ballroom dancing and by its very nature the tactile way that two people embrace, you simply cannot be overly shy. It's possible to be such when starting out but when the pleasure of the dance and the realisation that although tactile, dancing is a platonic experience and is very enjoyable indeed new dancers soon lose their inhibitions.

For me, engaging with someone new is just as easy as it is with someone that I know well. It happened today. Scroll down to #36 https://www.seniorforums.com/threads/how-do-you-wear-your-pants.57081/page-2 A lady, wearing wide pants noticed that mine were similar. "Oh my, look at you," she said, with a smile. Seeing her attire I answered: "Oh my, yourself, how elegant you look." We exchanged a few more compliments and went on our separate ways. It was fun, enjoyable but above all, it was safe, for both of us.
 
Jeepers Uriaty you certainly do some quick hunting for a new member. This is a thread that was started in 2016. Reviving it to your own advantage? :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

BTW, I flirt only with tall, handsome guys, like my hubby and they have to be younger than my 56 years!

My husband used to say I flirted but that was never my intent. I'm a very friendly person. I went from being a shy wallflower to a confident, friendly, fun person. The environment in the office where I spent most of my working years and the career I wound up in are partly responsible. My husband used to say I "twinkled". He also thought every other man "liked" me. He was one to talk! He was so handsome that women flirted shamelessly with him, even his daughters' friends. Little did they know that he hated forward women and many of them were disgracefully so. I used to tease him, saying that he flirted with our waitresses. Like me, he was just a friendly, fun person. Well...we always got great service. :D

Out with it G O. Were these medical issues the direct or indirect result of being on the receiving end of your flirting escapades. You know, the ones who go home walking backwards, staring at the sun and wearing sweaters in the summertime then mom sits them down and explains to them about how women should experience dangerous men once to really know the difference. Lol. Now for me? I never flirted. Probably the fear of rejection so I never wanted to experience such.

I can be as “prescriptive” as I like … married at 18 to the same man..thirty eight wonderful years and still counting…nein, no underlying issues.
BTW, you should talk about "issues" are you done with the whinging? :rolleyes:

Undoubtedly, but others may speculate or form opinions too, based upon your own stance,..........., oh and I just thought I'd query "whether you have issues" as so many seem to bandy the word around at the first opportunity! :(

Perhaps once, a long, long time ago in a nightmare, some poor lost soul told you, you were funny and since then, you may have been trying to make it a self fulfilling prophecy. Give up on that notion, not only are you not funny, you are also not refined.

Seems like you and grahamy are the two SF trolls.. well good luck, I don't engage with trolls.
