most people who flirt with me are more or less straightforward (some to the point of stupidity), so i don't exactly need to guess.

Like the chicken guy?

Oh forget it, she'd be better off hitting me over the head with a beer bottle before I realize it.

At the Musicology tour show here in Tampa, I was online to buy drinks and started talking with this incredibly adorable girl, her name was Renee (notice I fucking remember that shit with the quickness). Well, whatever, we had a wonderfully funny talk and she says at the end that if the concert stinks, she's going to want to yell at me. I say, you so totally can. She then asks if I have a business card or something so she can do that. I swear to god I didn't even think she was asking for my number or anything, and I didn't HAVE any with me, so I say no, buy my drinks and say bye.


What a fucking tool, she was so damn pretty.

I never know unless the flirtation is explicitly, exceedingly blatant!

Conversely, my attempts at flirtation are clumsy and usually are not perceived in the way I'd intended.

exactly. i rarely get any good flirtation aimed at me, it seems like...

wait...who are you to talk, dan?

applekisses said:

I have NO IDEA most of the time. A girl has to write it on a chalkboard in big letter before I have a clue.

applekisses said:

yup. besides, some people are just naturally flirtier than others

I'm pretty clueless when it comes to noticing this.

I think I probably only really notice if I am interested and flirting back.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one

me too ...

Japanese women are not exactly as subtle as I thought they would be. At the school where I was working one of the girls in the administrative office insisted that we go for a drive in my car, right after she had asked me if I had a girlfriend and I had answered that I didn't. And one of the teachers gave me little presents every week and let her hand rest on my shoulder or neck every time she explained what it was (it was usually some weird Japanese thing that did require an explanation).

But basically that's how obvious it has to be for me to notice it. Otherwise I just assume that they're being friendly and nothing else.

.

I think that when people aren't flirting w/ me I think they are & when they really are I can't pick up on it unless it's blatant

No - I'm absolutely crap. Like everyone else has said, unless it's written in lights, I never pick up on it.

Anyone I've ever pulled has been because I made the move.

my first boyfriend had to kiss me before I realised my second brushed my hair for me (!!!) and the one I married called me up and formally asked me out.

I didn't really notice any flirting

ZombieKitten said:

Love the hair brushing move! I bet he was thinking "What can I do? What can I do? I know! Brush her hair!". And it worked!



This is the first, and only time, I'll ever compare myself to spats but no-one ever makes the move on me. So it's hard for me to gauge when people are flirting or not. It's only afterwards, when I'm destined never to meet them again, that the light bulb goes off. But I think I may have something to do with that.


The only time I ever pick it up is when it's women! This woman in the sandwich shop I go to practically barged her colleague out of the way the other day. I've noticed she's started making a point of serving me. Typical.
