I am curious what method most of you employ when flirting. There is a method to the madness. I know when I am flirting with a guy it may be subtle, with the exception of the huge smile on my face. I seem to use the "buddy" tactic which isn't real fast paced. I talk to him about his interests etc... So how do you go about flirting with the opposite sex? I may be in need of changing my method. How do you guys like to be flirted with? I know everyone is different, but please give me your comments. I may need to change my ways.

The best flirts i've ever had are where we've been volleying jokes back and forth like we were on center court at Wimbledon, i'm a jokey comment kind of person and like nothing better than meeting my female counterpart.
On the downside casual observers do tend to think we must have just escaped from an asylum or stolen a tanker load of recreational chemicals.

I can only do it on the Advice boards. Sad but true.

Flirting really is an art. Engage in coversation, making eye contact, mirror their tone, wording and so forth, and yes jokes are wonderful ice breakers. If you can make him laugh and vice a versa----thats a good starting point. Humor is something i can't live without!!!!!!!!

There's lots of stuff involved with flirting. Sexual attraction, humor, physical touch, eye contact, and so forth. You gotta have it all to be effective.

I think that the way that I flirt with a woman depends a lot on her type of personality. I'll flirt much differently with a more shy and timid woman than I will with a brash and outgoing one. I like to do a lot of teasing (could you guess?, lol)...but how much depends on the woman.

Also, sometimes what I'll do will be sort of antiflirting. Like indirectly saying I am not trying to come on to her or make her like me.

Were you affected by a tanker load of creational or recreationl chimicals during mental composition of this method? Or are you innocently practicing the methodology of volleying, serving and receiving for the purposes of fooling the guards, so that you can finally escape the asylum?

What is the buddy method? You flirt with your buddies?

I don't think I have a method... smile... perhaps slight touches, humor... she must laugh... My mama always told me... go out and have fun and the rest will take care of itself.
