Do you flirt on the forum? If you do, do you flirt even with people you wouldn't necessarily play with? Or do you feel that it's kind of like teasing if you do that? Have you flirted with someone then met them and not played, but continued to flirt on forum?
I like to flirt but think I flirt in two ways, differently depending on whether or not I'd play with a person. I don't think I could flirt with someone after I'd met them and decided not to take things further, because it would feel like me teasing them a bit. And I'm not sure about flirting when someone's made it plain they are looking elsewhere and I'm off the radar!
I've never been very good at spotting flirting as apposed to innocent banter. I'm not good at it here and I'm not good at it in the real world.
Maybe I'm naive I don't know. I'm not even sure when I'm flirting with someone.
If you are aware you're flirting doesn't that make it a bit cold and calculating?
Forum flirting... love it!
I have been known to have a lil flirt with folk from here... for me, I probably find it easier to flirt in here than in the chat room, cos I am generally attracted to people's wit, humour etc and those that I find interesting and/or intriguing - don't have to actually 'see' them to be able to have a flirt. In the chatroom I find sometimes I am distracted by either the speed of the banter in the room or by stuff that is happening on cam. I tend to find the rooms more conducive to banter generally rather than flirting...
So hey, anyone want to flirt... go right ahead :inlove:
<<stands up>>
my name is Mar and I flirt... :P
I'm not as bad as I used to be but if I think someone is mentally or physically attractive I really cannot help myself.
On the other hand, some people take my personality as flirting when really I'm just a chatty open person.
I'm having a situation in the vanilla sense at the moment where a wife of a friend of mine seems to think she's got something to worry about! It annoys me incredibly because I love this guy as a mate, we get really well and have similar interests but I abs do not fancy him and would never ever come between him and his wife. It makes me wary of enjoying our friendship. :cry:
I enjoy flirting on here as its something that I wouldn't normally do. It gives me a buzz to think that some one else likes me for being me. Does that sound daft?
You lot brings out the devil in me :giggle:
I'm a shocking flirt, online in the forums Im not so good at it, but face to face in my vanilla world, anyone is fair game!!
I do it to (mostly guys) that i dont find attractive but I just like to have a laugh and make them smile (there ya go thats me again...love to make people smile in here too)
If I can bring a smile to their faces and send them away happy, then I am happy....only the other day I walked into the staff room at work, where 3 of the maintenance workers were looking at some electrics (they were all 50-60 years old, portly, guys, just so -not-my-type) and all I said was..."god its like a totty fest in here"
They were so thrilled at being called totty, and laughed about how they were going to tell everyone they worked with they had been called totty!
I used to do the same when I worked in the theatres, flirted with the surgeons all the time, even the most miserable, shouty, grumpy ones, just so I could make em crack a smile. I never once had anyone not enjoy it or not appreciate it, or think I had overstepped the mark.
Here in the forums, I cant seem to do it so well, because of lack of visual clues (body language and so on) and also because with some there is that element of flirting cos I fancy them, and I guess Im just scared of rejection (does that make sense?? I cant seem to grasp for the right words to explain how I feel!) And I totall can NOT see indirect signals that someone is interested!
And as for the direct approach....hopeless at doing it!!! But prefer someone to do that cos then Im in no doubt LOL
I flirt as a way of having fun and enjoying someone's company. It is meaningless most of the time and I get terrified if someone wants to follow it up with some sex. :shock:
The people I flirt with the most I will probably never have any sort of sexual relationship with.
I never ever mix work and flirting and it is purely a social event for me.
Can't do it, can't recognise it
