Last night on another forum I started flirting with a girl on it, but then I realised that Scottish flirting is little more than taking the piss out of each other, and I just wondered what flirting is like in other cultures...

No pissing on eachother jokes!!!

In Finland, it is more of a test of strength, usually involving lifting each other other and then guessing the comparitive weights involved.

In France they sniff each other bottoms (or is that dogs ?)

What?

Flirting techniques???
1)Sudden Nudity - Everyone likes an awkward flash
2)Nose picking - Definately pick the dangles from their nose
3)Alcohol - Lots and Lots of Alcohol

First, you go in a bar and start looking for some groups of people. When you have spotted a group where there might be singles, you buy a drink, walk there and say:"The first single here gets a free drink!". I'll leave the rest for you to make up.

What?

Other cultures? Where are you from? (not Scotland, I assume?)

Look at his location. Unless Glasgow has suddenly moved... :p

Incidentally, I wasn't aware that our flirting was ripping the piss out of each other. Maybe that's where I'm going wrong!

But that's what threw me, surely he's used to Scottish flirting if he's from Glasgow?

I'm confused :(

*goes for a lie down*

Actually the ability to piss over a great distance is how the australian aboriginies choose a partner.whoever can piss the greatest distance(away not up) get the first choice of the ladies.[/lies]

See... young people... Ie-me never really have to use flirting because most young girls in Scotland are slags... but last night I was flirting with someone older

Only in Glesga, pal. ;)

If you can only do Scottish flirting, why don't you find someone Scottish to flirt with? Besides, flirting over the internet just devolves into cybersex. Face to face flirting is much more subtle.

Well if you have that kind of opinion then I'd say you'd need some very good flirting techniques *rolls eyes*

thats what I ment... people from the rest of Scotland are quite happy with their sheep

Women generally have a worse circulation than men. This results in their hands being cold in situations that men's hands are warm in. Warm her hands.
Also: Footmassages. Women LOVE footmassages. :D
Tickling is also sometimes (depending on the girl) a good way to get closer.
And women love dancing.

Everything always goes everywhere.

Look at me. Just now, I'm going to go buy a few kiwis at the greengrocery.
I love kiwis.

Does the word kiwi exists in Englsish?

The real way to a womans heart?

CHOCOLATE

lots and lots of it.women all love chocolate.and dont be afraid to spike the chocolate.alcohol makes everyone sexier

I thought Scottish flirting involved Iron Bru, Heavy and headbutts and then round the evening off with a nice deep fried pizza and mars bar.

Oh God, what I wouldn't give for a bit of chocolate right now.

I like this guy's ideas

you're right warming hands is nice. this coming from a girl, if you really want to impress your potential date being nice and polite is the best way. ask what she wants.

Thats the welsh. Silly. :rolleyes:

yeah... but do New Lealanders shag their sheep like Aberdonions (People from Aberdeen) do

yeah... but do New Lealanders shag their sheep like Aberdonions (People from Aberdeen) doNo they don't. Why do you think there's so few NZs compared to scots?

Answer (Don't look if you're easily offended or Scottish or from New Zealand):
Because sheep run away at the sound of a zipper!

I do not have a flirting technique Maybe that is why I had so little flirts...
All the girls I ever danced with/ kissed / had sex with took the initiative. Except for my ex-girlfriend. There it just developed. It was just like we both KNEW first we liked each other (looked at each other to find that out) and then hold hands, and then... and then...

All very well, but one thing the scots have over everyone else is that girls seem incredibly vulnerable to their accent, HOW CAN i COMPETE WITH THAT?!?

Though not a user of chat-up lines myself, they are quite funny, and sad at the same time...
e.g. Sorry, I lost my virginity recently, can I have yours?
... Come dance with me, or I'll sh*t in your handbag. :eek:
... You'll do.

etc. etc. ;)

All very well, but one thing the scots have over everyone else is that girls seem incredibly vulnerable to their accent, HOW CAN i COMPETE WITH THAT?!? I've managed to drive my ex-girlfriend crazy with by faking one. Same goes for an Irish one. Whenever I started it was: "Shut up and kiss me!" :fluffle:

I like to puff out my chest, flap my wings (arms, actually) rapidly and squawk loudly. Got the technique from a grouse! :fluffle:

Have you considered the possibility that you are doing your face to face flirting wrong, and this is why it hasn't "devolved" into face to face sex?

:eek: Does that mean since I have an accent thats a mix of both i'm super irresistable?

:eek: Does that mean since I have an accent thats a mix of both i'm super irresistable?Don't ask me, silly! :p
REASON1: I can't hear your accent.
REASON2: I'm a straight guy. I wouldn't find you attractive if you spoke with an Aussie accent (that's a hard one to fake...)

:eek: Does that mean since I have an accent thats a mix of both i'm super irresistable?
YAY... Us Scots are irresistible... whooooo

LOL! Well, there are almost as many ways to flirt as there are people, but my personal preference is to figure out what she finds amusing and then use that to make her laugh. Laughter is, after all, about the closest thing to orgasm as anything else in the human repitoir. :D

The only real problem with that strategy is that when she no longer finds you funny, she could well dump you... :(

Sometimes, if I'm too tired or lazy- I just take it out.

Ah! But this thread is about flirting, yes? Once you get beyond flirting, different "skills" kick in. :D

ROFLMAO! Well, one thing's for certain ... you know right away if there's any interest! LOL!

Well-when they are speechless, its important to get them talking right away-I suggest:

"Ever see one of these-outside of a circus tent?"

or:

"What are we gonna do about this?"

I prefer: "Well, it's your fault! What do you intend to do to make the swelling go down?" Hehehe!

Are you female?
Its possible.

treat it like a snake bite....

Full Metal Jacket:
"What we have here is a fine specimen of Alabama Black Snake."
I'm too modest and white to use that though... :p

treat it like a snake bite....Careful. I've seen a movie where a guy butted in and said "I know how that works, let me try!"

NNNOoooooo!!

Well, personally I favour the "stand well away in a corner and try not to be noticed while checking her out" method. So far, no luck.

How about not flirting? Damn sexually/romantically crazed fools...Love is evil, dammit! Sex is evil! <Shakes fist, sighs, realizes "The Cause" is a hopeless one>

Well, you can always do like in one specific deodorant-commercial: run naked to the bar and slap some guy's ass with a wet towel. Then you'll get ladies more than you can carry.

I have no idea, but I've been told I'm very flirty at times :confused:
