Is sending memes flirting?

Do you think that when she starts sending memes while texting, does it mean we're flirting?

[Investigator]

Is it? Certain emojis or memes tend to denote certain emotional states, but is the simple act of sending memes now considered a form of flirtation?

This definitely comes across as mind reading. You are assuming that A) the person you are corresponding with has the same sense of humor and understands the connotation of certain memes and B) that the other person is also "pathologically online", i. e. both parties are immersed in internet culture to such an unhealthy degree that it's just "obvious" that memes are the modern form of sexual invitation. Certain demographics might spend copious amounts of time on social media platforms, but that does not automatically equate such communications with flirty banter.

"Flirting with memes" also comes with the unintended problem of "proxy talking", where you can only deliver messages through the ironic exaggerations of other people's messaging; it's not possible to be authentic when using memes, because you have to find something that communicates the message you desire to send and can only be interpreted in the way you intend it to. That is not how memes works.

I assume everything is being sociable. Unless you get a "This is me flirting: Send memes" meme in which case it could be...

It depends on the type of content you're sharing. This guy used to send me naughty memes all the time and ended up being a huge turn off for me.

[Avicenna]

I wouldn't assume that

What’s your intention? Why are you sending meme’s?

[NZGirl07]

It depends on the content. If it is cute or flirty yes. If it is just funny jokes then no.

[ZXCwWRQWz]

Anything online doesn't really count in my opinion. It's "virtual" and fake.

[TheSpaceGnome]

No, memes are something people send to anyone, unless its a meme intended specifically for flirting, but those are obvious.

[Wise4myage]

I guess that would depend on the content of the meme's.

It’s possible, maybe not, but one thing I’d think for sure is that she wants to keep the conversation going.

[Anonymous]

Lol no. It means she sees you as a friend. Don't you send memes to your guy friends? Are they flirting?

[BJP21]

It can be. Its a glimpse into ones sense of humor too.

[OddBeMe]

Doing anything can be flirting if you’re interested.

[Anonymous]

Texting is not real communication, so you are failing already.

[Desconhecida]

Lol that's a new one.

[bubblegunnn]

Nahh.. maybe she just want to share it w u

[fembotnpc777]

[sassy_receptor]

depends on the memes being sent

[Nomina]

No idea. For me, it's just fun but not flirting.

[WhitneySnow]

Maybe. Depends on the memes I guess.

[Ms_Facesitter]

Maybe if it's about love about you two together.

[LilyByte]

[Rapport]

It could be, depending on the meme.
