    Now I'm really depressed! :frown:

    I'll admit it, I usually suck at realizing it until after

    Good lesson then ladies - Go obvious to avoid oblivious.

    Just pull your tits out and shake em around a bit. That'll get 'em.
    It works every single time.

    Nope. I just think they're crazy but still not hitting on me. Seriously, a woman could throw herself at me and I'm just like, "she seems really nice". It's a bit of an issue. Lol

    I don't know, though. Because some guys mistake a girl being nice and smiling for flirting when that was not the intention. I get asked out a lot for that reason, I think.

    Yep, I am completely oblivious to if it is being friendly or flirting. If any of it flirting. I'm pretty sure none of it is.

    This! Though, as rml said, I was much more likely to have noticed if there was interest on my part.

    LOL@post.

    I'm too shy to notice I'm being hit on.

    Eyes usually cast down

    it's an issue I'm working on!
    see...and look at that.
    My very first post

    Men notice flirting when it's a woman they're interested in.

    This right here.

    But in general guys tend to be zoned out of it if they aren't interested or nervous of the social situation.

    I seriously think all my mfp friends are just being nice and motivating. Maybe a flirt here and there, but for the most part I don't think it get flirted with at all

    I just make the general assumption that the opposite sex is flirting with me.

    I may come off like a completely self obsessed *kitten* but at least I don't miss out on opportunities.

    It looks like your belly button is whistling.

    Because of all the false flagging that goes on, I consider all female flirting unreliable to base assumptions on. I'd rather just ask someone out that I'm attracted to and be wrong.

    As for 40 year-olds standing in their underwear saying "I don't think they're flirting, they're just being motivating!" Haha! Seriously I hope that shtick works. lol

    I did notice several times, but it's likely that I miss it more often than not. If I'm not interested it doesn't matter anyway.

    I am oblivious. It's a combination of many things but the biggest reason (pun intended) is my weight. Being nearly 500 lbs for most of my 20's, if a woman was flirting with me, I'd instantly assume she as just being friendly and never think she was "interested" in a fatty like me. I get told by friends that it happens, especially with the weight I've lost, but I just don't see it. I am one of those guys that needs to be smacked in the head with a huge bright glowing sign "I AM FLIRTING WITH YOU" and even then, it's possible I'd still miss it.

    That would work for me!

    To my knowledge no-one has ever flirted with me.
