How do you flirt with a marine?

[hanbaux]

They are such gentlemen that I don’t even know how to. I met one around town and I see him like once a week. I just wanna figure out how to initiate a conversation with him and how to give it a more flirty turn even if we are still talking about his military stuff. HOW DO I FLIRT? (It’s at the gym)

[damoM]

1. Remark on how buff he is
2. Make it obvious in conversation that you like a man in uniform
3. Tell him his girlfriend is lucky to land such a hunk and a gentleman
4. When he says he doesn't have a girlfriend, smile and make sure your face lights up happily

[hanbaux]

I just can’t be tooooooo forward. He knows I’m a student where he recruits and I don’t know if he’d be okay with that. I just don’t want him to get in trouble even though I am 18

[sexyasianboi26]

They are gentlemens and tigers at the same time. Be bold, be quick, dont give hints, be straightforward.

Give him a greenlight first, ask him what days is he off duty, what he does, where is originally from, etc..

If you were a recruiter at a highschool would you shy away from an 18 year old student?

[My-Shangri-La]

Once a marine, always a marine.

[hanbaux]

But would you shy away from themmmmm

[sexyasianboi26]

You being a student complicates things.

[sexyasianboi26]

Actually when he is wearing his uniform, why dont u go up to him and ask for a selfie.

[candycanehearts]

aaah thats so cute! you should get him to recruit u!!! or you could ask him if he wants to go somewhere with your friends as a group or if its too embarrassing u could get a guy friend to invite him/ make friends with him for you

[NightOwl8801]

Get him a pack of crayons , I served in the army and I know it's military humor related but be honest and upfront with him.
Just say I got a snack for you and hand him a pack of crayons wrapped up in a towel or something.
He'll find it funny and might just like you

[hanbaux]

Wait I don’t get it

[NightOwl8801]

It's military humor , people in one branch of service say marines are dumb and eat crayons.
It's complicated but the military picks on each other's branch of service and still consider them friends and brothers/sisters in arms

[hanbaux]

I think he’d be pissed

[NightOwl8801]

If he is a good sport about it he shouldn't be.

[JackalOfNar]

you think crayons is bad. I'm fairly certain I've eaten gems.

[Swolebusser]

You flirt by asking him how big his gun is. And when he starts talking about his issued weapon. Say “I wasn’t talking about that gun” and give him the doe eyes.

Go out for drinks military guys are legendary drinkers.

[Cali_Marine]

Marines are just people too guarentee if he's talk about his job you may not know a lot and some terms might shock you but it's because we are used to talking to other marines so normal flirt but get to know terms and his job

[Dinnye]

It's never a good idea to date a marine. Or an air force officer. The two most deployment/transfer prone population in every military...

[Anonymous]

This is quite possibly one of the worst things you could do. But, I've seen some of your questions, so, it's kind of old news with you

[hanbaux]

Wdym

[Opinion Owner]

Just sayin'

[hanbaux]

But like what do you mean

[Opinion Owner]

I'm just sayin'

[jdrrichmond]

Me, I'd do it very carefully. For you it would probably be easier.

[Slim57]

The same way you do with any other guy, sure he's a well respected man but he's also still a human

[hanbaux]

I don’t even know how to flirt lol. I just feel like I’d make a fool out of myself

[Slim57]

Tell him you like a man in uniform while you have a sly look in your eyes, you're a good looking girl you got this

[hanbaux]

Okay but here is the dealio. He is a highschool marine recruiter. He knows I’m in highschool. I am 18, but I’m worried he’d be turned off by that. And thanks btw!!<3

[hanbaux]

I have no idea how old he is but he is HOT

[Bluemax]

The same way you'd flirt with anyone else.

[Anonymous]

What about your bank boyfriend?

[hanbaux]

I haven’t gone in for a while so I don't know if it’s gonna happen. I’m seeking other options

[Opinion Owner]

You should go in and make your move. You seemed like you really liked him. Don't give up so easily.

[hanbaux]

I feel like I like anyone who gives me the slightest bit of attention at this point. That’s why I’m moving on

[Opinion Owner]

Why do you feel like that?

[hanbaux]

Because I like it more when a guy likes me. I like when someone finds me attractive or special or something. I’ve just been single way too long that I feel like I’d go for anyone at this point

[Opinion Owner]

Well I'm sorry. I know being single for awhile can make you feel lonely and you question your worth but being single for a long time doesn't mean anything is wrong with you. And feeling like you are beautiful should come from you not some stranger. You know your worth more than they do. It feels good to be desired by people but that shouldn't be where your foundation of self-esteem comes from. Recognize your beauty from how you view yourself not how guys do. And it's okay if you don't always do that. Feeling confident about yourself is not easy at all and it's normal to not feel like that sometimes.

[hanbaux]

It’s not that I’m not confident I just like when a guy is attracted to me

[Opinion Owner]

But to the point of where you become interested in any guy who thinks you're cute?

[hanbaux]

Yeah I guess that’s kinda bad

[Opinion Owner]

But why do you feel that way then? Sorry if I assumed too much

[hanbaux]

Cuz I haven’t dated anyone for years so I want affection

[Opinion Owner]

okay I understand that.

Just remember anyone can show some amount of affection for a short period of time. If you want that long term you have to find someone who values you as the person that you are and has respect for you. Because that's really the only type of guy who can supply specifically you with lasting affection.

[hanbaux]

Yeah for sure, I’m just having a hard time finding that person. I know it takes time but still

[Opinion Owner]

yeah, it's normal. It really does take time. That's why most people have relationships that don't last. They got fed up with waiting and went with someone who didn't jive with who they were.

[hanbaux]

I dunno I still gotta try out different people to see who I Fit well with. I don just like them immediately by the way it’s only if they have characteristics I like

[Anonymous]

"Hey sexy, wanna get me wetter than the oceans?"

[NerdInDenial]

Smile

[NerdInDenial]

[sidvt]

Just flirt directly
