I think flirting is great if its not overdone. It's the way to let someone know you are interested. I've read a lot that a guy won't ask a girl out if he's not sure if she is interested or not. The only problem there is sometimes us girls think we are being obviouse enough and apparently we aren't lol. The one thing I hate is when someone has a "flirty" personality. I know some people say "I can't help it" and they are lying, but there are some people who trully don't realize they are doing it. I know because I have a friend like that (ok so he's actually my crush). But seriously, he told me once how his teacher said he was a lady's man and he said he couldn't understand why he gave that impression. When I bashfully admited that he does come across flirty he seemed really upset and confused. He also wouldn't lay off the topic until I told him how he was acting that way. I ended up not telling him cause that would mean telling him all the things he does around me that make me think he is flirting with me.

There are precious few cases where I believe a woman who says she either doesn't know how to flirt, or that she just doesn't flirt, period.

There's a couple of those precious few cases here.

...just to interrupt, and whatnot.
May I ask why? I would tend to agree with you (even though I said I'm not sure if I know how to flirt, I probably do, I just don't, because I've never had a guy I felt reasonably comfortable flirting with in my life that often), but is it because you think it's something that comes naturally?

a ton of people mistake my friendly affectionate nature for flirting when i most often don't mean it as such.
since guys tend to read these signals from my behavior anyway...no matter what my intentions are...i don't really put much stake in monitoring myself that closely. flirty. not flirty. it's not like they can tell the difference. lol.

i tend to wear my heart on my face so 8 times out of 10 i accidentally have 'flirty face' on when i see a cute guy. lol. but it's not like an intentional 'oh i think i'll flirt with a stranger' thing. it's just my nature.

and i usually only intentionally flirt with someone i'm crushing on. and even then. i am the most awkward flirt you will probably ever meet. but i am not one to hide my emotions. so if i feel it? i say it.

Flirting is harmless in my opinion. As long as a person is not flirting with someone in a harmful way or if they are in a relationship.

Someone who flirts can be faithful to one person
Votes for this option: 34%. I seriously hope they thought this was talking about flirting with the one you're in a relationship with. Otherwise I've just lost respect for 34% of CC's members.

I think it depends on a lot of factors, such as if the flirting is too racy, or relationship status, but I will be the first to admit I absolutely LOVE flirting! People have also mistaken politeness from me as flirtatious when it was not my intent though. Honestly, I flirt in a comical way. If I'm trying to be serious about it, it gets too awkward, but comical flirting is a ton of fun and I always try it out on my friends. I'm worse than all of you in that department I guess. You guys are missing out. :p

I don't mind flirting. Just not with someone else when I already have a girlfriend. :p That said, if my girlfriend comically flirted with another guy I'd let that guy take her home.

Married people should not flirt with single people especially Christians

I can relate to your post. Me and most of my friends are single. I do a lot of comical flirting. I would never flirt with someone to lead them on. I also would never flirt with anyone in a relationship or if I was in a relationship myself.

I know what you mean about comical flirting,but I've never heard it put like that. I had a word picture of you on a comedy club stage doing knock-knock jokes just now. LOL

I just think, from watching a good number of girls/women over the whopping 27 years of my life (I'm so OLD!!), that the majority of women who say they don't/can't flirt are usually saying it AS a way to flirt. Playing "innocent" or "coy". It's usually said to a guy in such a way as to make that guy start flirting with her, to "teach" her, I guess. I don't know.

But! Like I said, there's a few ladies here who have said they just really don't know how to flirt, and I believe it...from a couple of those few (you're one of them, Rachel- I can't see you trying to be coy or cutesy or pretend to be anything you're not).

Oh! And yeah, I do feel that women are, in general, born with a natural ability to flirt. I think, though, it takes a certain amount of attraction to bring it out in some women.

THAT ^^^ is a little bit of Cristen Theory for you.
