      Flirting - when they're reciprocating or open to it

      Creepy - when they're not; if you know way too much about them, follow them around, or keep trying it on with them despite getting the feeling that they're probably not that keen then you're being creepy.

      So by that analysis, yes, looks will probably come into it a little bit, but a stellar personality and sense of humour could redeem you.

      My husband is a total creeper. In a flirty kind of way. He sneaks up behind me in the store and smells me.

      AW! So sweet!

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

      It probably makes me a total geek to say this but everytime I see your parrot pic and read your posts I think of the episode of full metal alchemist where the "sun god" tried to bring a human back to life with a bunch of bird souls. You're right, it's creepy haha. Please tell me someone else knows what I'm talking about =)

      Making unsolicited sexual comments about you affecting the way they "feel"....Especially, if you are not even in a relationship with that person it gets creepy.

      Flirting - I heard a song the other day that reminded me of you...

      Creeping - that song is Closer by NIN

      The whole MFP, "hey, want me to send you pics of my ****" Thing is just so old - more power to ya if you enjoy it!! But to me, I really don't want to see 47 different angles of your ****... ENOUGH ALREADY!!!! And if you receive NO COMMENT back on your pic... take that as a hint that WE'RE NOT IMPRESSED...
      Ok, thank you... end of rant :laugh:

      IF a pr!ckPic was sent to me (which hasn't happened.....yet).......just remember - a person can copy that pic and POST IT ON FACEBOOK.................yah................

      As for the difference? If it's FUN and you're enjoying it, and it feels right.....then it's flirting.
      If your skin crawls and you just want to back away.......it's creepy.

      Flirt- I like what you have on.

      Creepy-I liked what you had on last night when I looked in your window.

      Flirting:Seeing a girl and going to talk to her

      Creepy: Seeing a girl and just staring at her all night.

      OOOR depending on age, I love little girls by Oingo Boingo, it's only funny if pedobear is dancing in the background.
      Yes it's my ringtone,
      But I'm a chick so it's ok to be creepy.

      Flirting is when someone looks you in the eye and smiles or says something complimentary.

      Creepy is having your boss who is 30 years older than you tell you he's going to hit on you when his wife goes out of town because you're hot.

      If it makes you throw up in your mouth, it's creepy.

      Ummm and in this case completely and utterly illegal.

      Nice shirt but have to disagree....shoot 47/2 +7 =30.5....yup I'm creepy cause you are to young to flirt with...damn.

      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.

      This is so true. I flirt will all the men (all married -boo) I work with hardcore. We had a new guy come into our department and I keep my mouth shut with him. I don't know him yet. All the others I have worked with for 7+ years.

      Youre creepy if you're not comfortable flirting and have no confidence to back up what you're doing.

      ALso if you're doing this and you are older than my dad AND dont know me.

      Or if you are wearing jean cutoffs, plastic glasses and a wife beater.

      Mostly, if Im not attracted to you, and Im not putting off any signals that im attracted to you and want to flirt back and forth, and you still keep doing it anyway, then your flirting becomes creepy.
