Flirting 101
| Tue, 07-20-2004 - 10:27am |
This was brought up before, but am still interested in more input anyway.
I'm no boy scout (I use to be a member of troop #50 though, LOL!), but I'm very curious about these different viewpoints I've read regarding flirting. All kinds of discussions across the internet about this, and I'm quite stunned by many of the views too...LOL...whoooa Nelly!
So...what is your own personal difinition of flirting when it involves someone you don't have a relationship with, whether you're in one or not? How would YOU describe it? What are your limits of acceptance and how far would you go? If you DID receive unwanted attention in this matter, how would you deal with it?
Remember:
Many points of views, only opinionated, so there's no right or wrong.

Good question Para.

I must honestly admit that we're both the insanely jealous type. What a match, huh? LOL!!
Here's what triggers Mrs. Para off:
If a lady talks with me and even so much as flatters me, flirts and all, then Mrs. P doesn't even raise an eyebrow at it...she just knows it won't matter, LOL!! Ahem...NOW...as soon as ANY lady starts talking about her own life and dreams and goals and whatever else about herself, then Mrs. Para lights up like a comet! Ooooh MY the look she had when that last lady made the mistake of unprovokingly telling me her age! ....sssssssssss......!!!.....
I think I'm the same way except I react quicker. If its joking, then whatever, even if its flirtatious. As soon as the talk gets personal however, the dude gets me rude! LOL!!
I suppose for us that the flirt line would be when it starts to involve personal info. Others on the internet, believe this or not, have admitted that its okay until "no" can't be taken as an answer, GASP!, and they were mostly the 'married' ones at that! I'm not saying its wrong or right cause to each their own, but I'm so surprised at how ignorant I was all along about how much the world has changed these days. Time for me to wake up I guess...lol!

Ahhh.
I flirt with the grocery bagger guy at our local market - he's a cutie, very young, but always looking at me so one day I started up a little conversation with him. Now we joke around all the time on my way out about how he'd give up his girlfriend anyday for me - it's completely harmless.
I DO NOT like when other women flirt with my husband AT ALL. Most of them ARE NOT harmless and are fairly serious. My hubby won't flirt back at most of them, but on occasion, he has (if we're at a party or something light) and I can feel fire about to flame out of my nostrils!
I gotta tell you, everyone, that I'm seeing the same pattern in this string so far that I've seen across other boards too. In parts of this string, the flirt to some is way serious with others. THEN, add on to that the ingredient of WHO is doing the flirting as well.
So many different little things that make up what we individually consider an actual flirt or more. Even I have to admit being use to hearing "compliments" from the ladies at wifey's work and then hearing those from associates outside of her work. She always "mocks" the differences, LOL!!
