How can you tell if you are flirting with people?
Taking a cue from Nova Magna Germania's thread...
In the past, it has been suggested that I tend to flirt with my colleagues/staff. However, anything of the sort has been entirely without motive or intent on my part, so how can I tell what I'm doing that's giving people this impression? At the very least I want to understand the source of the complaints.

If they're complaining about your flirting, you're doing it wrong. :p

I don't flirt, atleast not consciously.
I've been told I flirt with many girls I speak too including ones I've known for years. I've only rarely noticed this but whatever gets me a phone number at the end of the night is fine by me.

There's this boy that I like, and I flirt alot around him, so I'm a total pathetic give away. I wish I knew when I was..... :(

Why are you asking us, who don't know you and have never seen you in real life, let alone in one of the situations where you've been accused of flirting?
If people in your real life have already suggested to you that you are flirty in inappropriate settings why not ask them what makes them think you are?
Is that too logical?

What, you're not flirting with me? :eek: :(

I liked the symmetry.

Because I was too taken aback at the time (and I'm cripplingly bad with people).

See if their eyes are dilated, that means they're excited.
I've been told I flirt with many girls I speak too including ones I've known for years. I've only rarely noticed this but whatever gets me a phone number at the end of the night is fine by me.
I would settle for more than a phone number if I were you!
I REALLY don't know.

Look in his eyes.
Is it large?
Is he going to say no?
I'm cripplingly bad with people.
And yet you're a big flirt?

I didn't say when the night ended ;)

Do you laugh a lot for no apparent reason? Do you touch people at the slightest provocation? Do you give 'the look' a lot? If so, congrats! You're flirting with people.

:cool:

Well, not on purpose.
Do you laugh a lot for no apparent reason?
That would make me crazy, not flirty.
Do you touch people at the slightest provocation?
This I do. I find people respond better when I provide some small physical contact.
Do you give 'the look' a lot?
I have no idea what that means.

That would make me crazy, not flirty.Well, I suppose I should've specified that the giggling occurs after the "flirtee" says something.
This I do. I find people respond better when I provide some small physical contact.That's probably it, then.
I have no idea what that means.It's hard to explain what it is, but there's a look that a person has sometimes when they're attracted to you.

There really should be a book to teach people this non-verbal communication crap.

Thanks.
There really should be a book to teach people this non-verbal communication crap.You're welcome. :) There's also things like smiling in a certain way, or smiling a lot, that could indicate that you're flirting.
Your particular problem seems to be the touching, though.

Hello everyone, i'm with Interpol's anti-pedophile and just general sick faggot division, i'm looking for someone under the alias "Similization". Hes wanted for lewd conduct on internet forums and indecent exposure at a 7 year old's birthday party.

The only way I've been able to flirt with women for a long while is by simply looking at them a lot. I'm too nervous to go up and talk to them. I'm too much of a defeatist also.

Same things happens to me occasionally. Just trying to be friendly, put smiles on faces etc. Luckily, I’m far too ugly for anything I do to ever be taken seriously by any of the people I deal with in the course of my day.

Don't flirt too much with too many people, you end up in my position....having a crap load of not so attractive or personable girls that think you love them. :headbang: If only one of them could be like adriana lima, and think that, then i'd be fricking happy.

Or, just as well, a dimly-lit corner of a tiled room with hot water jets, handcuffs, and sympathetic onlookers.
Never mind how do you know if you're flirting with someone, how do you go about it in the first place?
Or, rather, how do you pick up the courage to even consider it?
I haven't been out with anyone at all, so I have no idea what it REALLY entails or what's expected of you or anything...
If only you could declare your undying love for someone and then either have it accepted or have it nicely rejected without everyone finding out...
I can't even summon up the courage to buy a Valentine's rose for the one for whom I feel...

What? What a strange question. Umm if you mean to flirt then you are and if you do not mean to flirt then you are not.
I guess I mean it's all in the intent.

Ahhhh I wonder if that has anything to do with living in Grimsby?
The best thing to do to get a woman is..... well two things really, just bloody talk to them like you would talk to anybody else, hehe and develop a thick skin.

The way I talk to people is usually as a physicist/historian/mathematician/philosopher.
I don't do normality.
