As I threatened in another thread - here it is!

Where do you feel the line is between a "Flirt" and a "Creeper"?

I'm going to sit back and watch the fun!

    Flirt -> I never though we share so much similarities ;)

    Creepy -> If you was an ice cream, I'd eat you all!! o_o

    If you are a HOT guy it is flirting.

    If not then it will likely be regarded as creepy.

    I disagree - I have flirted with not-hot guys and still had a lot of fun with it!

    Truth. This is why I'm a creep. Girls don't like parrots. They tend to stick with their own species.

    I think it has a lot to do with the relationship that is already established. I have friends that I flirt with hard....and they are good with it...but if they did not know me.....had I tried the same thing when we had only been friends a few days.....it would have been creepy.....

    Establishing rapport and trust first is important, IMHO.

    If it makes me smile... flirting.

    If it makes me cringe... creeping.

    I can't really break it down any better than that. Sorry.

    I disagree. It's all about the way you say (type) things. Humor is key, without humor, things can sound creepy.

    Knowing what your victim will react well to....

    Errrr, that's not what I meant. Really. I mean being sensitive to what the recipient of your affection likes and their individual needs.

    What's that? In the air? Is that the Goodyear Blimp *points and then runs away when you're not looking.*

    Flirting - Telling her she's gorgeous.

    Creep - Telling her she's gorgeous with your junk in your hand.

    I disagree, It's in the approach. I've had hot guys creep me the f**K out and not hot guys make me want to flirt back.

    WRONG! Carl... you're always so spot on!

    Hot guys can be the creepiest... IMO.

    If by creepy, you mean "now I want to lick the clown," then you are correct.

    If you are ugly and/or a d-bag it's creepy.

    If you are hot and/or have a cool personality then let the flirting commence.

    From my experience around other women, this is the major factor--if she's into you, it's flirting, if she's not, it's creepy. I'm not saying it's universal, but...

    Just going with the odds in many cases.
    It does work both ways too.

    hard to say.... It's more of a "gut feeling" I get with someone as to whether I find them "creepy" or not...

    There has been something recently brought to my attention about MFP and relationships (from PM's, to texting to actually meeting someone in person) that have made me sit back and go, "WHOA"!!!!!! There are some extremely WHACKED people out there...

    Same thing when a woman is flirting with a man.

    Flirting- Hey you are pretty awesome, can we be friends?

    Creeper- I like the way you look in those pants, wonder if you look any better out of them...will you add me?

    :huh:
