Not a man but I will tell you one of my observations.

It depends on the man.

If he is a manipulator/playa type, yes he definitely will.

If he is a normal man chances are no.


I am so offended by this! I will often flirt with a woman I have no interest in simply to be friendly. It's often a very old woman and if I can make her feel like a giddy school girl again, make her blush, I know she'll have a great day. She'll have a sort of buzz for a few hours and she'll smile whenever she remembers me. But, she'll also keep things in perspective.

I have a friend who's mom has been visiting for the past month. She's in her mid 70s. Every time I see her, I hug her and put my arm around her. She can't remember my name, so she calls me "the tall, good looking guy." LOL She LOVES it! She revels in the attention. And I like making her feel good.


Would you do the same with women closer to your age and younger, though?

I only flirt with people I find unattractive to get what I want from them. Most men are easy to manipulate if you have boobs. Yeah, whatever, I know I'm a horrible evil person. I already have my one way ticket to hell.

depends on if he thinks he's flirting or not...a lot of woman tend to think I'm flirting just because I was being friendly....maybe they are not flirting at all but you are reading something into it

Sure! I'll also do it with gay men. It's just part of being friendly and social. It doesn't mean anything.

flirt all the time (playfully) even with friends

try to convey that most of the time it IS just play and hope I'm not misunderstood AND at times "understood"


a slippery slope I guess

I should add that the TERM,,Flirt,,,has a different MEANING to some here..
When I flirt,,its NEVER from my HEART,,its like a laugh, a giggle,,a light harded means of expressing a bit MORE into whatever I am saying to them..
I do NOT consider touching a women as a flirt,,,thats a TOUCH,lol

my flirting is something I only do with laughs, smiles, and a great sense of respect,,,for ADDING to their self-confidence.
Not to do THIS,,as a means for me to go out with them, or go to bed with them,,,,

A touch,,is a pass,,,which to me is MORE,,than any words could express,,and if I AM TOUCHING,,,lol I am LIKING this woman,,for romantic thoughts...in the ways of making a pass towards them..

THAT,,lol,does NOT include hugs,,,or a acting silly arm around..

Thats at dinner,,and my hand lays over hers for something said,,or
to hold her hand..or to slide her hair back,off her cheek,,,
THOSE,,would be in romantic ways,,,not a flirt as to kid...joke.


WOW,,,that was tough,,,laugh laugh laugh laugh laugh

Some people (men and women), are habitual flirts.

Some people (like myself) flirt, just to be friendly...not meaning to send the wrong message.

I think you're right.

I'm relationship oriented, but I have a personality that you would probably classify as "playa type". I never thought about it, but I probably lead a lot of women on not even knowing it.

I'm the exception to the rule though. Most guys who merely go out of their way to talk to you, probably want to bone you.

I personally don't think there is anything wrong with flirting, and I don't believe you have to be attracted to someone to flirt with them. It's simply a nice way to make someone feel good about themselves and or to get to know someone. But I also believe there are different types of flirting....theres friendly and then theres I want to take you home and people should understand the difference. Some people just have flirty personalities and it shouldn't be taken out of context.

Okay.... here is my opinion in regards to online flirting...

If it's done in the forums (public)... it could or could not mean that someone is interested in you.

If it's done by email (private)... there could be interest... but if it's repeatedly by email... at some point... you just have to ask out right if there is more interest or what type of interest.

Usually if I'm flirting it's more out of playfulness than romance.

Same here, but I have a flirty personality... my friends will comment on me flirting with someone even when I don't realize it.
