Another thread has me questioning how other people view "flirting". I tend to be friendly and joke around with people sometimes, and it doesn't matter what gender or age they are so I've ever even thought to consider that flirting. Men, women, elderly, children... I just like to smile and interact with people I come across when I am in a playful or happy mood. Now I'm wondering if that is seen as inappropriate by some people, if the recipient happens to be the opposite sex. Why flirting? Why not just genuinely enjoying one another's company for a short time?
Is this a regional thing? Perhaps people in the south are simply more open and outgoing than in some other areas? It's very common to make small talk, laugh and smile with total strangers you see while running errands in Small Town Texas.
