This thread was a feeble attempt to understand the confusing world of female signals, I've learnt a lot from all of you people, thanks. I'll just go with the flow I guess. Go with the flow...My new motto :tongue:
have u learned anything? I think verseau_miracle has done a good job explaining the difference between friendly gestures and flirting. It's important that guys KNOW the difference cos it does lead to problems, read my earlier posts if u doubt me, I had guys chase me under the pretense that I was interested in them and I couldn't shake them off, really fucking annoying. When I'm in a good mood I can't help but smile upon eye contact. Or touch someone's arm, shoulder to get their attention. When I'm flirting there is a definite sexual innuendo like talk of sex in some way, or one time while squeezing by a cutie, our backs turned, I took the opportunity to rub my ass against his -- that's flirting. This is a very important topic, glad you raised it. Guys need to know the difference and understand us more, I wonder how many of them are reading this.
it's a good one. one of the best. cheer up and have a chuckle, interpersonal relations are always a sticky, silly mess in the end anyway, whether you "get some" or not.
well, part of the problem in interpreting flirting signals is that theres a lot of grey ground between flirt and friendly. totally depends on a) the person b) the culture and c) the situation itself. there are som good generalities (fluttering lashes, touching your hand, lingering touches, sticking their chest out and stomahc in, leaning in, etc) but theres also a lot of wiggle room because of different situations, people, etc
^^ something similar i was gonna bring up.. is the girl like that with everyone or just you. If she's like that with everyone then she's not flirting with just you per se, just her personality.
How can you be cold and polite at the same time? I am a very friendly person, and if I were in a relationship at the moment, I'd still be the same way. I am friendly to everyone, and that is just the way I am. I am exceptionally friendly to people I take interest in and usually act different around those people. I don't think it's women's fault for men's misunderstandings, nor would I think it's men's fault for women's misunderstandings. They're just misunderstandings.
