Do you consider it stringing someone along if you just like to flirt or are naturally flirty, but you're very clear that you don't want a relationship?

    I refuse to flirt to avoid this very thing. Someone's always falling in love with me and it's kinda a hassle.

    See... I don't really try to flirt... and it's not like Jessica Rabbit flirting! It's like friendly making jokes kind of flirting that just comes out, you know?! I don't know if that makes sense, but it did in my head. Lol But the same thing tends to happen to me even though I'm very clear that I'm not interested in dating.

    what a tragedy...how do you deal with such a burden in life to have guys fall for you.

    It is when you have to try to let them down gently and they still get hurt. That's why I asked the question in the first place. Am I leading them on if I'm perfectly clear that I don't want a relationship or should I just end the friendship?

    I've been called a tease so many times for this I white girl can't even. So now I just don't flirt unless they are worthy of the flirt. You're not stringing them along. But everyone wants to be that "special" one.

    I understand that & I don't purposely flirt to tease them... it's just like a natural thing with me... which isn't an excuse. I mean it just happens sometimes before I realize it.

    Flirting or not, how could anyone not fall in love with you?

    I think it's probably unpossible not to.

    D'aaaaawww

    I have a naturally flirty/jokey personality...with everyone, guys and girls. It's only really a problem when people I work with or my Uni students misinterpret my normal behavior as flirting.

    I'm also called a "tease" a lot, but I don't care. I've learned to revel in it. There's worst things to be...

    Same with me!

    Cause I mean that's just my personality... I don't want to have to change who I am just to be friends with someone without them getting hurt... you know what I mean? Like it's fun because I'm being myself, but I don't purposely lead them on.

    Apparently I flirt and am a tease. IDK where they get that from. I'm just awesome and they take that as being flirtatious. This is why I never respond to messages on here. One second it's " Hey. How are you?" and the next it's " Wanna get married?"

    and this whole time I thought we had something special going on...I even showed you my kitten

    Dammit, I knew this day would come.

    Is flirting leading somebody on with no intent on fulfilling the desired response? People taking things wrong is one thing but flirting without fulfilling the intent is just mind games.
