Do you like direct flirting or subtle flirting, and why?

[ElenaLena]

Personally, I’m definitely into direct flirting.. I like when someone has the confidence to make their interest obvious instead of making me play detective…😏😄

[HawkPerception]

I don't think there are many guys who will say they prefer subtle flirting. Girls subtle flirting isn't even recognizable by most guys, including myself. Just tell me straight... are you interested in me? If so, great. Let's talk and see where it goes. If we don't click no hard feelings and we go our own ways. It should really be that simple. Girls complicate everything.

[ElenaLena]

I understand your point of view.. but some girls are reserved and I’ve seen that because they are more emotional.. I think.. I don't know

[HawkPerception]

Studies have indicated men and women have the same levels of emotion, but societal norms have men it so that men normally have to regulate their emotions more than women. We get just as scared to approach and just as fearful as rejection, but if that's the only way to find a partner, then wouldn't you do it? If that was the only way to not be called a bitch, wouldn't you do it?

[ElenaLena]

Yeah.. I agree with you nobody likes to be in a vulnerable position..

[ohsheeT]

I think there is a time and place for both. And sometimes they work hand in hand

Or builds up to direct flirting
And at the same time direct flirting to me is more like when your in bed and things get really hot and like naughty talk starts

So maybe I dont know how to flirt lol

I'm a guy and we guys don't usually recognize hints If you want to flirt with me, be bold and direct. I'll get it then and I might flirt in return, playfully of course... I'm married.

The go to move for most women, subtle flirting, I'd call it cryptic flirting, or delusional "obvious hints", is annoying as hell.

If you want to flirt, just flirt. Flirt with me directly. Let's get playful and have some fun seeing if both of us can keep up.

I'll probably just ignore your attempts at eye contact, walking past me 3 times, moving closer to me, standing in my line of sight, "accidentally" bumping into me, or asking me to pass you a napkin. If you're THAT shy and risk averse, you're probably not my type.

I totally abhor flirting. Any kind of flirting whether direct, indirect or subtle. The definition of flirting is:

""a sexual behavior involving spoken or written communication, as well as body language, by one person to another, to suggest interest in a deeper relationship with the other person".

Now, we all know what "a deeper relationship" entails and means. That simply signifies that the person flirting is interested in getting into the victim's pants and usually discards the victim after use.

I am not interested in fornicating and that is the reason I do react very negatively to anyone attempting to flirt. I do not tolerate that kind of nonsense.

Within the talking phase, I'm thrown off by direct flirting, I take it as overkill, unless it's clear that we're joking, so there's that lol.

Whenever feelings are established on both sides, I guess my ways become a mix of direct and subtle flirting.

It's hard to be sure because whatever I call flirting isn't necessarily what the other calls flirting as well, up until we know each other enough to understand how we both work with this

[Zack-Bann]

I like to keep my intentions very direct.
But the things I might say won’t always be direct declarations of affection, simply because they get old quick.


Have you cracked the case yet detective? 😏

[ElenaLena]

[MrChinaski]

If you are still wearing clothes then it is too subtle.

[ElenaLena]

Ok 😄

[Still-alive]

Oh yeaahh i like direct big time. huge ego boost too lol

[ElenaLena]

Absolutely..

[Still-alive]

on the inside im cheering like 'heh still got it' ;)

[ElenaLena]

Yeah 😄

[RavVid]

Somewhere between the two. I don't like crassness. It is true that men have been shut down in work environments. Merely telling a girl she is looking beautiful can land you into trouble.

Indirect flirting is safer.

[AngryCarl3]

I'm always subtle. Direct flirting make me nervous.

[Anonymous]

I need direct. I'm a moron when it comes to flirting.

[AgentG111]

Mix of both direct is nicer but mix is fun!

[Nikki1989]

I am a natural flirt, or so people tell me.

[DryGermanGuy]

Both are fun, if it’s sincere! 🙂🙃

[ElenaLena]

Of course 😊

[Anonymous]

Anything other than her saying flat out, "hey, i really like you". I'm either going to miss or deliberately ignore. Because if you can't be bothered to make your feelings be known i can't be bothered with you.👍

[Pohjolan]

I don't really like either per se. When it happens I'm not at that moment aware if its actual flirting or just another cocktease.

Subtle Flirting @ElenaLena

[TonyMetal___1986]

Sadly i don't flirt...

[FrodoSkywalker007]

I'll be direct with you 😉

[Mountein]

Direct flirting more good every time

[canamlusciouslad73]

The latter.
