Because we live in a society where many people have forgotten how to understand body language and some of us are just guessing because we dont understand what if flirting and what is not unless you're really bunt about it... and let's face it, most people flirting are not blunt
Because guys are supposed to be the out going ones that sweeps the girl up. I personally find it similar to flirting because this person is genuinely curious about you, they maintain eye contact, smile, laugh and are engaged in the conversation. Quite conveniently these are the same things that girls do when the are flirting with you. And guys like girls that are interested in them, so if you show interest in them it makes them feel special
First answer that finally made a bit sense. You see her how you would act yourself if you flirted. But all these are still way too miniscule to see as romantic interest. Eye contact, smile, laugh, engage in conversation? A girl should be able to do that with a guy she is not interested in
Because they want that kind of connection from girls.
Also, with the pressure on guys to do the work since the dawn of time, this means they need to look for any positive signs at all and go for it. It's reflexive. If and decent girl is being nice to you then the reflex is to explore that.
Most men take kindness as a shot at you there's some out there "me" that can actually hangout and not try to make a move.. altho in my head the thought may arise.. and that's why I prefer to let the girl make that choice
This generally happens to guys who never actually have any women flirt with them.
So β¦ friendly is the closest to a green light they've ever seen.

Because most girls don't acknowledge must less extend kindness to guys we aren't interestedin or want something from. Its easy to see why they'd get confused.
Young guys ( and sometimes not so young) will often mistaken a girls politeness / friendliness as flirting. It happens at lot due to either inexperience or desperation.
I know the difference, However a lot of guys don't understand the difference or just want to see what happens when they push it further or that they can win her over.
I'm not saying that in a bad way. Girls can be the same. It's cute and innocent as long as they don't get entitled and pissed when they find out it's not what they thought
It's wishful thinking/confirmation bias. Plus if it's a guy that doesn't normally get that kind of friendliness from girls, then he might think "hey, one that actually has interest in me!"
Because the only reason you're like this is to get attention or free stuff. Then you get mad when guys want something in return. First you play with a man's emotions and then claim to be a victim.
@Porcelaine you're nice and polite only to yourself. Anything else is to show a man how cute you are to get in his pocket or appeal to his white knight instinct.
In my own experience is bc I'm in desperate need for someone so if someone shows a little bit of interest in talking to me sometimes u get all work out.. but at the same time I know she's just being friendly..
I had my fair share of girls growing up who would be polite and friendly with me. I never took it as flirting when I young. As I got older it's rare to have that kind of attention unless your outgoing.

@Porcelaine Yes, i agree but, it is so rare these days
Its not rare at all
Great question!!! I am very polite and that's the equivalent of "Come F*** Me" lol 😂😈
Lol your playin but for a guy that's spot on lol
May be a man confuses your interest about him, but I don't consider any real man who thinks that interest=free way to fuck.

As I guy, I have the same issue, as women sometimes think I'm flirting, when in reality, I'm just friendly with everyone, both guys and girls.
Because women do stupid shit like being polite and friendly as dropping hints that they like you. So there's literally no fucking way to tell
Hopeful, inexperienced, desire, wishful thinking, naive.

You could flip this question and ask the same thing.
Because guys desperately look for girls who are actually pleasant to be around, so we see things that aren't actually there to feed that fantasy.
Nice girls = Myth
LOL
@ElvenMr well... You're not wrong...
Woop woop iron man lol

So if a girl is nice and polite she is playing with his emotions?

Because they want to be flirted with and they tell themselves she is flirting
I had my fair share of girls growing up who would be polite and friendly with me. I never took it as flirting when I young. As I got older it's rare to have that kind of attention unless your outgoing.
Because, to guys, a girl being friendly and a girl being flirty look the exact same.
But whyyyy
