It comes naturally...it seems like a flirt with guys and girls even though 99.9% of the time I am not attracted or interested in them.
I don't really flirt...but when someone walks by...I make sure I notice them...Glance head to toe at thier outfit... or uglyness or sexyness...or ew lol
*And if they look at me I smile...(Because it makes things less creepy more friendly)
*When they talk to me I stare into deep eyecontact...and play with my hair...(because its always in my face but I don't want to cut bangs)
*When they talk...I laugh...(to make thing less tense)
*I always joke around and somehow tease them (only if nice enough) and touch them (only if clean)
*I give out my cell # like crazy because I enjoy texting when I am bored... (to guys or girls...you never know when you get extremly bored and need someone new to talk to)
*I compliment everyone on thier alluring qualities. (For Ex. If you are fat and have pretty eyes..I say "You have really pretty eyes")
*I am always interested in meeting new people. (The ones that are cool enough become my friends...the lame ones end up never being talked to after 1 convo.)
*If you are freaky minded and we have a freaky convo...I definitely will throw some (funny)
punch lines on you...(jokingly) some people take it serious...but some who are cool don't care.
Honestly if I think you are my "Type" I would be the not only nice but sexy too ;D
I am a natural flirt...I don't even notice how f*ck up I seem...

Supposedly sometimes friends unconsciously show flirting signals to their friends or people they're close to. If someone mirrors your body language, it means you and the other person have a strong connection/rapport or they feel comfortable with you. Also, if you're talking to someone, and they turn their whole body to face you and lean in closer, they're really listening to what you're saying-not necessarily flirting with you.
I once read in some magazine "if you're really nervous about flirting with someone you like a lot, flirt with someone you don't like to get practice" basically. (Which I find odd. Pretend to like someone, just for your own benefit?! Seriously?! What about that other person? What about the other person's feelings?)
Personally, I don't know why people do that. I don't think I've ever/or rarely flirted with someone consciously. I think it's a bit strange to purposely show flirting signals to someone you like-I'd think that would feel fake in a way-to act like someone you aren't just for the sake of flirting. Or if you show too many signals, that person would not be attracted if you come on too strongly.
No. It's never harmless. One person in the interaction nearly always wants more than the other, even if it's just sex.
However, I'm one of those over-friendly girls who gets taken for flirting ALL THE TIME, and "just sex" is a dude's response more often than not. Wonder why sweet, friendly, genuinely nice girls hide? This.
Yes, there's nothing wrong with human interaction. You never know, you could make someone's day.
As for the related question of people who only flirt with people they're not interested in. Maybe they feel they have nothing to lose? Or they're just too shy around people they're actually interested in.
Not at all, I only flirt with somebody if I do like them, not for a relationship necessarily but I can be for other things like sex. But I do flirt with girls that I like. I am shocked to see how many gamer girls there are here and then they say women don't like games. Biggest load of crap right here.

Omg this is sad... I see girls on this site asking "is he into me or just leading me on?", who always complain about being confused and fooled... and yet looking at these answers they have no problem playing guys like a fiddle!
If you want honesty you have to set the example, is what I say.I flirt with my guy friends, and they flirt back. But we both know it's harmless and just for fun/make time go by faster, especially at work! :D There's a mutual.. dis-interest.
Now, if it's a guy I rarely know, and I get the sense that he might be into me, but I am not, I will not flirt as this would be just leading him on. It really depends on who you're with :) But I voted A because I hang out quite a bit with my guy friends.I don't think I do, and I don't try to, but others think I do. I think it's more that, as I get to know a guy, I become more open and I guess friendlier so, to them, it comes off as flirting. I don't intentionally do it, nor do I intend for it to send the message that I'm into them, but it has caused some problems in the past.
No never, but I'm not a natural flirt. I'm pretty serious and just like to smile and laugh when I like somebody.
And I totally understand people who flirt with those they're not interested in! It's easier for me to act flirty, when I don't like a guy but I know that he likes me. Less pressure in case you screw up, cause you know that whatever you do, you'll get positive feedback from the guy.Yes I do. -With the guys I like as friends, with the guys I find incredibly funny and with the guys I like as more than just friends. If I hate a guy I won't flirt...I'll barely speak to them, much less flirt with them.
And answering your other question;
It's because those people don't feel comfortable around the person they truly like. They feel self-conscious, and perhaps not good enough. They also fear of what the other person might say in return or if they'd think they're not a good or smooth enough of a flirt.They flirt with people they don't actually like because of all the opposite reasons.I usually flirt with guys I'm not interested in. It's because it's easier for me to just say whatever I want, do whatever I want, etc. I can laugh and joke around freely because I care very little about what they think. And the attention of a cute guy can drive you forward, you know?
I know, it doesn't seem sane to do it, but... I just do it. I actually get totally freaked when I really like a guy. I act very inconsistently--I flirt, laugh, etc. and then I run away from him because it feels too real. I stress over what I just said to him, did, etc. It's too much to deal with. That's why flirting with strangers can be stupid and easy.It depends on how you define your terms. I flirt only with people I like. Or are attracted to. But not necessarily those that I want a relationship with. y'know what I'm saying?
And flirt as in banter friendly insults. Touching shoulders compliments. Well then I flirt with every one of my friends that happen to be girls. (Which is I guess all but 3 people so make of that what you will)
So I guess I can say I flirt with all girls that I like even only as friends. But if you mean flirt with purpose? I don't even recall doing that with my girl.
Flirting is often like arguing it's a sport. There's really no way to win. And people sometimes get the wrong messageI don't and in my opinion, people shouldn't do it. Because then if the guy/girl takes it seriously, then the person who flirted starts complaining that the guy/girl won't leave them alone. Its like if you are playing with rats and one of them bites you and then you complain when you get rabies, its just stupid, but then again, that's just my opinion.
No, I don't like misunderstandings and I don't want to be responsible for someone's feelings. Natural flirt my ass >>
Of course! Life would be so boring if no one did!
I will never lie and say I love that person, or that I'm interested in a relationship. But I will have fun if they find me attractive and I feel the same!
Of course, if I'm in a serious relationship (aka I think I might be in love), I automatically tone it down. To be honest, I don't really feel like flirting if I'm in love. And even if I wasn't in a actual relationship... I don't do it in front of boys that will be hurt.
There are rules to being good at it, and ways to make it fun for both people... If you do it wrong they could be lead to believe your flirting is actually interest. And the repercussions are many.Yes. In certain situations, you really can't take flirting seriously. For example, you know you're never going to see the person again, or you're at work and flirting a little with a customer. In all other situations, I try not to do that because I might have to fend him off at another point.
Nope, If I don't find you interesting to talk to or attractive then no I won't flirt back. I don't want to send out signals that I don't truly mean.
Lol at the update. For some reason I'm just more comfortable talking/flirting with guys I'm not attracted to. I guess it's because I get really shy and unsure of myself when I'm around a crush and end up talking to his friend (who I hold zero attraction for) more--with the hope of getting some info on my crush...you know, when I'm not too busy getting flustered thinking about him.
I don't mind flirting with some girls I'm not interested in, but I will back off if they show some indicators of interest.
Other girls I am into - I might flirt with them for a bit, then get nervous and go shy. I'll be HOT for them one day, then cold another. Just depends on how I'm feeling.I think people should separate light, one time flirting, with heavy and repeated flirting.
Light, polite and short flirting is OK and make both people feel good. Leading someone on with heavy and repeated flirting while you have no interest in that person is inappropriate and hurtful.even before I voted, I already knew that girls are very more likely to flirt with people, reciprocate, engage in conversation and flirting, those results do not surprise me, which is what I really hate about girls, and what I hate even more is that taken girls are more likely to do that than single girls
I'm interested in everyone, but I don't flirt with them.
What am I doing wrong!?No. I just don't feel like it. I can't bring myself to flirt unless I'm interested. If I do I'd feel sort of stupid and uncomfortable.
Though I was being nice to one guy and I'm afraid he had mistaken it for flirting. When I realized this, I quickly backed away to make sure he doesn't get the wrong idea. So I might have done it once... in a way...? =/erm... not all the guys... If I REALLY don't like him I won't flirt AT ALL...
But if he's a close friend or something and we're just kidding around sureee why not ;P
I will 'shy-flirt' with a guy I really do like usually.. so there's a difference in the types of flirting.never heavy flirting where it definitely showing I am interested...just innocent flirting like if to help me do something I'll bat my eyelashes , hug them, ask please with the innocent look and cute face...but I always tel;l them what I good friend they are, and how I would never wanna change that
