Can you tell when someone is flirting with you? Yes/no? How do you react if they are?

[Pinay_ako]

[Joshydavid25]

Yeah, especially since when they do it's not super subtle.. But even the more subtle flirts, I can see it based on maybe their body language and gestures.. Like if they look for a bit after they've verbally interacted with me..

[Joshydavid25]

Thanks for MHO!

[Pinay_ako]

You’re welcome 😇

[Starrrboy]

Yeah.. I swear all girls look the same while doing it lol.. the same stare and " I'm just going to pretend your personal space doesn't exist " is usually a dead giveaway lol..

[ohsheeT]

Most of the time I can.

I'm. A friendly guy so. Depending on who they are and just a bunch of other things I would probably be a smart-ass or I would flirt back. But there's a few ways I'd go about it that would probably be pretty funny

[AviatorTom]

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. If they flirt with me, sometimes I'll flirt back.

[GuyAnswersGirls123]

Generally but what I do is I reciprocated when I was a bachelor. So if a woman gave me a touch on the arm, I don't know if it's friendly or flirty. So I would place my hand on her knee and if she's comfortable and still laughing and smiling, I figure it was flirty. If she pulls away, then I figure it was friendly and I end up apologizing for making her uncomfortable.

I made educated guesses this way and combined them with gentle reciprocating actions to resolve any possible ambiguities.

[GuyAnswersGirls123]

I've actually never had a woman pull away from me so I figure I always read it correctly. There was only one time I messed up where I was kissed a girl and she kissed me back and we were making out for almost 15 minutes until she stopped me and said I was going too fast.

So I apologized, but after that I was a complete gentleman and didn't even try to make any sexual moves on her for a whole month until she ended up kissing me.

[Whitey_Johnson]

I've become much better at discerning flirts now, but when I was younger (up to my mid-thirties) I was clueless. But it's somewhat irrelevant, because I always pursued the women I wanted, whether they flirted with me or not, and I ignored the women in whom I had no interest, even if they were flirting with me.

[Mr_twoface]

When I used to be single, I enjoyed socialising too much that when someone flirted, most of the times I missed it. A couple of individuals told me this later.

Now, being married, I feel my radar is better when people flirt. I smile back but hey what else can I do.

[el_Te_de_la_Rosa]

No. Because I then observe in silence to see if they do the same to others or not. It's very difficult for me. Esp. when I'm aware of my intuition, aka imagining things. That's why I have be more sensing and collect concrete evidence, rather than just assuming. (Words sometimes are just a lie. Words together with long term actions speak the best.)

[Red-Blaze]

I normally say be obvious... I can be somewhat dense on this stuff

I can sometimes tell, and some times it will completely miss me, I can tell normally if it's very much 1 on 1 and in person.. on the text I will almost for sure miss it.. and get distracted if there are more people around in the same time

[JacobJordan]

No I have the flirt radar of a brick. Short of a woman basically dry humping me or telling me "I like you romantically" I default to "oh wow she's so friendly... and a bit handsy" I have come to find out that evidently I am, and I will quote, "a complete idiot" and that she was very openly flirting with me.

[BoopBoopBeep]

Nope. Always sucked at that. Sometimes it has been a problem. I don't really pick up on the "flirting" aspect of it until she's unzipping my fly.

[DryGermanGuy]

Sure. For most people there is usually a certain amount of clumsiness involved. 😬

[sean1234]

As for myself being flirty, I think I've always done it without ever realizing it. For that reason I don't think I've ever been good at realizing it either with the opposite sex.

[jamesgoldman]

Not at all
With my second girlfriend she spent a couple of months flirting with me and everyone I worked with picked it up, told me and I didn't believe them
Eventually opportunity knocked for her to make an irrefutable move on me

[mandyfire98]

Yeah I can definitely tell. I'm just naturally flirty just in my personality alone so I'm probably flirting already lol.

[rosemilk]

sometimes. if i can tell, i become standoff-ish, i don't want to give someone false hope.

[IslaTheWitch]

you never know... you have to try to flirt back and check :D

[ShadezMcgee]

Nope. I am dense as fuck. Usually and compliments unless it is blatant go over my head.

[Sevenpointfive]

i guess, but i don't want people i don't want flirting with me too. it makes me uncomfortable

[Pohjolan]

To a extent. However its difficult to say if someone is flirting because they are interested or because they are a tease.

[MrPickles13]

I have absolutely no idea how you can tell frankly. I either have never noticed or just as likely no one has ever flirted with me.

[Nifrayu]

I've been told I am oblivious to it. I usually just think it's a friendly conversation.

[Avicenna]

I usually can, yes

[dragoblack]

Nope, I always assume they are being friendly or sarcastic.

[standardguy]

Sometimes i can't differentiate it. In any case I stay friendly and funny without sexual interest.

[sing_in_the_shower]

I am basically clueless. A coworker was working with me for almost 6 months before I realized she had bene flirting with me

[DatBrooklynGuy]

Usually a good 9/10 I just assume she's being friendly. I'm Ray Charles when it comes to signals

[Bklynbadboy12]

Yes I can tell and how I react depends on who's flirting and if I'm in a relationship or not

[dolemite58]

Usually, some girls are really awkward though.

[NathanDavis]

nowadays I can... lol

[Xia1994]

i smile if i like him back 😊

[spartan55]

Of course I can, can you?

[RavVid]

Yes. Flirt back

[laly520]

I can tell most of time

[sheikalana]

Most of the times I can tell.

[Jennz6]

Yes, just about always

[Androktasia]

I'm completely oblivious

[DiegoO]

No, I am really dumb noticing it.

[Amur8711]

I probably do know 🤣😅

[Amur8711]

Don't* I mean

[grega239]

No. Totally clueless

[Jerre]

Yes. I try to get to know them better

[Jerre]

@Pinay_ako Thank you for the Like

[Ziza7]

It's easy to tell

[JayBones]

If you can't tell you might be autistic. How do I deal? I flirt back. Who cares. It's just flirting.

[Pinay_ako]

Not everyone is as smooth as you.

[JayBones]

You could be. A you have to do is let go.

[sirderpsalot123]

No lol

[RMSTitanic]

Only I can flirt with you, no?

[Fuentes]

Yes lol

[Triarii]

Nope

[justabuddy]

I kinda suck at it.

[eagle1951]

nope
