Do you find it harder to flirt in modern times?

[es20490446e]

Yes

No

It’s easier then ever to flirt and get laid if you really want to. Building a genuine connection with someone is another story. But there is plenty of people who just want to have sex for fun and sport… Even if you’re conventionally unattractive you can find someone else whose desperate to get laid so it just doesn’t really matter.

With being online and many people wanting casuals it’s by far easier to get laid them it was decades ago when more people had standards. Not saying things were perfect then either but I’m saying it’s easy now. People who say it isn’t are either unattractive inside and/or out…. Or just never try.

Maybe the problem is that I don't want to get laid, and definitely get laid with someone not worth it.

They easily want more than that later on, and I get a walking problem. It's a trap 😅

[hahahmm]

@es20490446e I dunno about today but you used to be able to ask a woman out with zero flirting. Guys who flirted with total strangers tended to want to get laid sooner OR if you knew a woman from multiple interactions and you flirt it could go either way. I don't think any woman is going to sleep with you if you're unsure about what you want. Unless they have turned into zombies who force men into sex while I've been out of the market.

[es20490446e]

@hahahmm I'm starting to think that these days it doesn't work like that!

Otherwise I can't understand why a decent guy like me, when he asks someone out, has so high chance of going nowhere!

[hahahmm]

@es20490446e It's not a problem IF you know you want serious potential.. if women who aren't looking for that get scare off. In fact, the less time you spend on them the better. I pass up on A LOT of a+ looking women in my life because they didn't have what I wanted. No regrets here. Eventually I found a woman who had the personality I wanted. I tell you what tho..

[hahahmm]

Not saying my wife wasn't A+ looking. She was. Just that this was NOT the real reason I picked her at all.

That's a loaded question. I've NEVER liked flirting. So I don't think it has anything to do with "modern times". But when you realize what you're up against. And lack of sincerely that is out there. I think you have to just make the decision to stay detached from emotion when you do it. Faked the emotion of course. But be completely numb to the results. So if it works, cool. If it doesn't work, cool. Moving on.

[es20490446e]

I don't see myself as capable of being detached of such emotions.

I may appear stoic, but after a while it starts getting tiresome.

Most GOOD people can't. It goes against thier nature. It has to be a skill that is learned. It's still not easy for me either. And it is this insincerity that has turned the dating world into what it is. But being honest and straightforward with you feelings isn't going to make the opposite gender be honest a straight forward in thiers I'm afraid.

[es20490446e]

Interesting point.

[MemeSupreme]

bro i would've struggled flirting in medieval times lol

got nothing to do with the time period

[es20490446e]

[Nikki1989]

Why would I intentionally flirt?

I am a grown woman.

[es20490446e]

Lets say the definition of "flirting" is flexible.

[HighValue]

I find it harder to be interested in someone in modern times because so many people are such low quality, and for many it is obvious just from their appearance.

[es20490446e]

[NathanDavis]

[es20490446e]

[7Phoenix7]

@IslaTheWitch lmaoo urban dictionary definitions always make me laugh 🤣

[TheSpaceGnome]

I've never had to flirt, I get hit on by most single women I get along with well enough to spend at least a month talking to. And I'm not ready to flirt until I've known her for 3 years.

[es20490446e]

Maybe I know too little women worth flirting with.

[es20490446e]

I know many nice women, but all taken.

[TheSpaceGnome]

I dont know many single women either, but fir the ones I come across that I don't avoid or argue with, thats usually my result.

[serious]

I never flirt and I am incapable of doing that also. I see this as cheap also.

[es20490446e]

Why would you say it is cheap?

[serious]

@es20490446e

Simple that is because it is a type of show off. It is always done with an ulterior motive in mind. To try and manipulate the final outcome.

[Jamie05rhs]

Well, yes. Because everything I say could be deemed offensive.

So I just choose to keep my mouth shut and mind my own business. If I see a pretty lady, I just walk on by.

[es20490446e]

I was thinking... maybe what is offensive is the intent on itself.

[Jerre]

I think it is much easier to flirt in todays world

[es20490446e]

Somehow I don't doubt you have found the formula 😁

[exitseven]

Yes, because I am married

[es20490446e]

That's cheating the game 🤪

[Anonymous]

[es20490446e]

I haven't found the manual on Amazon.

[Opinion Owner]

[Anonymous]
