well this is a common question... ok well maybe its not... but i know all of u guys are thinkin about it and tgo scared to ask

well girls like to be paid attention to, as most people do. but treat them nicely , smile at them , look in to their eyes a little bit longer... its makes girls go... oh they are so sweet! OR it could freak them out ... but most girls i would think are like me and like the extra attention from guys they are attracted to.

not sure if this answered ur question mate , but it was fun writing it!

most importantly tho .. be urself and smile!

To me, flirting is all about special attention. And by "special," I don't just mean extra attention. I mean different attention. If you want your flirting to be obvious to the other person (which is usually the idea, right?) then you can't be treating them the same way you treat everyone else. They have to know they are special somehow. So, it could be opening a door, or a giving a compliment, or a touch on the shoulder or whatever - doesn't matter as long as it's special or different or preferential - you get the idea.

Those are my thoughts on flirting.

well 2 of my potentials are out... i do that to everyone lol

I agree with Rachael. I have been told I come off as flirtacious (is that even a word?) ...and I don't even try to flirt really, it's just my outgoing personality. Okay...certain girls of course

But it really comes down to a "different" attention as Rachael said. I'm a big fan of eye contact myself, but that's me. Whether just putting an arm around her shoulders and walking down the hall, that can end well, or

. Almost all flirting can go that way I guess. I'd stay away from those "pick-up lines"...if you actually used them as flirting...

i believe like that.....

(and because most of you think i'm a guy, i'll explain right now, i'm an almost 16 year old girl, not a 36 year old man....)
i know i personally like the eye contact. i've got a journal, and when i talk about guys, and stuff, it's the eye contact. usaully all about that.

I don't understand flirting.
Why do people like to flirt or be flirted with?

People always think I flirt with people, but I'm just friendly. Today I was blatantly told to stop flirting with a classmate. All I did was call, "Hola Greg!" down the hall at him. Indeed, he blushed--but he's one of those really quiet types, you know. I was just being friendly. It's not because I "like" him or anything. Why do people tend to see friendliness as flirtatiousness?

I guess I'd just rather be treated with respect than anything. I love it when men appreciate my femininity in a way that is masculine, but not flirtatious (or rather, the way I view flirting). Does that even make sense?

I'm the same way, but for me the problem is when i'm really nice to my friends girlfriends and then the tend to start to like me and causes problems, i lost about a dozen friends because of that. so i just stick to being nice when i see them but i dont talk to them as much as i use to. And its weird cause i'm usually the nice guy anyways and yet they still think i flirt. I mean i open the door and pay for things and make girls laugh. but most of the time i'm trying to be a friend and thats it.

I'm an absolute old-fashioned guy, it's something I got from my dad... I'll open doors, pay for stuff, wait for the ladies to be seated before I sit, I'll even walk on the street side of the sidewalk. Nothing remotely flirtatious about that, though. It's just my personal etiquette.
