God, I wish I was more of a flirt on short notice
Edited on Wed Jul-19-06 05:56 PM by HEyHEY
I was at the produce store and saw a gorgeous Mediterranean looking woman (I AM A SUCKER FOR THIS LOOK.) So, she sees me checking her out and I quickly look away, and as I'm doing that, she smiles, then walks past me.
Now, I am not some poor slob who thinks "Oh, jeez that girl at the grocery store could have been the one." - That'd be sad.
I just wish I was more instinctively flirty because I think it'd be much more fun on a daily basis. Hey, flirting IS fun... so when your first instinct is to bug out... you miss out on alot of fun.
Stupid shyness.
I can be a great flirt if there's a waitress involved or something - and it's fun. But when I have no time to adjust, I suck.
Flirting really is an art-form. I shall work harder to master it.

1. I hear you. The only time I can flirt is when I don't want to.
People tell me I'm pretty good at it. Of course, when I want to, I stumble and bumble and make an ass of myself OR I just don't even bother.

Pain in the ass.

:shrug:

4. I get told I'm flirting all the time when I'm just being friendly
My female friends are always saying "You're flirting with that waitress." And I had no idea I was.

6. Yep, same thing I do.
It sucks. I wish i could study the me that can do it, so that the other me that wants to do it can learn.

2. I'm more of a nonverbal flirt in person.
Eye contact goes a long way. So does a nice smile. :) When you get the opportunity again (and you will!), you might try that. :D

3. Or, alternatively,
...drop your trousers and scream, "MEEEAAAARRRRRGHH!!!"

You'd be surprised the number of dates I got that way. Actually, I'll bet the number wouldn't surprise you at all. :D

7. I can't flirt worth a damn
I always just end up being friends with the person I like...dammit.
