    I can’t flirt to save my life, so anything that comes out of my mouth around people I find attractive typically sounds dumb.

    I lure them to Kik with a false sense of camaraderie and understanding. Then I ghost.

    Well that's just good technique right? Always leave them wanting more lol

    *sad sigh* same here. Its why I'm OK with flirting with my male friends. No pressure to sound suave. Just jokes.

    Likewise. I can joke around with friends and coworkers but put me in the company of someone I'm attracted to and I get super formal. Or just mute.

    Ohhh. Yeah. The formal thing. I guess I do that too

    One time I got a message from what I’m pretty sure was a robot on Instagram, but I decided to have a conversation and see how long it would go and she quit talking to me without even trying to get me to a website

    Flirting with strangers is a fascinating way to observe and experience different human interactions/behaviours

    I was sitting in the car at the convenience store when my husband walked in to get us drinks. Out walks a hawt guy. I couldn't help but notice that he was hawt so our eyes kind of met. Then his little girl walked out behind him. IT WAS MY DAUGHTER'S BEST FRIEND. Who lives in our neighborhood. The kid practically lives at my house. Awkwardness ensues. Luckily they just moved.

    great post !

    Not flirting, but an attempt at a compliment? from a client to me

    "You look beautiful today...no, wait, I, I mean everyday...you do look kinda tired tho...I think of you every day, when I wake up"

    And that got awkward quick


    great post !

    All of my flirting failures are painful and sad and I’ve managed to shove most of them into the deep dark recesses of forgetfulness. The next time one of them bobs to the surface I’ll try to turn it into a story for you. 🙂

    I remember back when I was a teenager (damn that's depressing to say) I had a friend whose mom would dress really snazzy and I dug her style.

    One day I'm over at his house sitting at the kitchen table waiting for him to get ready and his mom comes home from work decked out in a snappy ensemble, as per usual. I said to her, "Dang, Mrs. G., those pants are tight!" (tight meaning cool, awesome, radiant... that was the slang back then)
    And as she's putting the groceries away she just casually responds back, "Oh thanks, I don't like them baggy."

    I just sat there frozen. It wasn't even intended to be flirtatious, just wanted to see if a young buck could make a grown woman blush is all.

    great post !


    ...... what are y....

    oh.

    wait.

    never mind.

    I'm on a losing streak..... I damn sure am.

    Even my artificial house plants died because I didn't pretend to wear them.

    Like everything else in life, Practice, Practice, Practice.....

    For me, it's a numbers game; eventually some girl will be either nearsighted, desperate or really, really stupid.

    ( it usually takes all three. ) *shrug

    I think that's actually a good philosophy. I just wish I knew what flirting was, to know how to flirt. Then I could practice too.

    That's essentially the same thing I told you in the selfie thread the other day, although I was kinda bein a smart *kitten*.

    Not that I'm any kind of an expert, but it starts with just being yourself and comfortable with it. Humans can sense tension in one another. Be it man or woman, nothing is more attractive than confidence in yourself.

    Now that's out of the way, what are you wearing, Jake from state farm?

    I just lose the ability to speak properly. Everything comes out a jumbled mess and I use the wrong words or just forget the words completely

    Don't know how. If I tried, it would come out awkward.

    Calling a girl the wrong name repeatedly, even after she corrected me a couple times. Total fail!
