If you flirt with a person on the forum, are you genuinely interested in them?

Do you like being flirted with even if someone isn't interested in you?

If someone is naturally flirty with everyone, does that put you off them a little bit? Or make it harder to tell when it's intentional?

I never notice when people are flirty I just assume their being nice so I don't think I'd take much notice on here to be honest.

If it was blatantly obvious flirting with everyone then it maybe off-putting a little, I like to feel somewhat special I guess not that I'm just one of many who bit the bait, it can also come across as any holes a goal & if everyone can have it I dont want it.

I'm terrible at flirting online

In real life you need to hit me in the face with a sledge hammer that says I fancy you to make me aware

So to answer the question. I have no idea if anyone is flirting with me and thus am unable to answer properly

I don't think I flirt with anyone, I lost the knack years ago.

I feel a little uncomfortable if someone flirts with me on the forum because I'm never sure if it's genuine (especially if they're a lot younger or very popular).

If someone is flirty with everyone I feel much more comfortable with it because I know exactly where I stand.

I enjoy flirting. When I still had a sex drive I did take it more seriously with some men on here. Now I just enjoy the fun of it. I mainly flirt with those I already consider friends as I would hate to lead anyone on.

A lot of the flirting on here is

Yeah I know people will say it's just a bit of fun and it's nice to be nice blah blah blah, but on certain threads it is just so blatantly fake it is off putting. The ones that gush over anyone that pays them a slight compliment and declare love for about 20 different women before 9am. Yeah it's definitely put me off a few people.

Call me miserable, I don't care but I can't flirt with someone I don't like in some way, I'd have to slap myself.

Though I do sometimes do it to take the piss. Not sorry.

I think there is a grey area online of friendly banter and actual flirting.

If someone is a massive flirt, then I do not take them seriously. I can come across as ungenuine and a bit patronising. But those feelings maybe due to my own insecurities who knows.

I don't flirt with my platonic friends. Blurred lines are messy.

If people are openly flirty with everyone socially, I'll just assume that's how they are & pay no attention to it. If they actually were openly trying with everyone at the same time, I'd find that too thirsty for my taste so that would put me off.

Generally, I don't notice flirting, just assume people are sociable. Crap at first moves but definitely would flirt with a crush/ partner, or tease a fwb. That's fun when comfortable in that connection.

Ah I'd not thought about it like that! That makes sense - if it's how someone is you don't think much of it, it's them.

I like being flirted with, and I enjoy flirting back but it doesn’t mean I’m interested in them or that they’re interested in me. It’s just a nice feeling and a bit of fun isn’t it? It’s a playful way of interacting with others. It’s nice to log on and just talk nonsense and flirt.

I don’t mind if they are being flirty with others. I take it all with a pinch of salt anyway.

I think if someone was genuinely interested in me, they would have to be direct. I don’t find flirting to be an indicator of interest when it’s on a forum

If it's flirting because it's a jokey, flirty kind of thread I try to make it obvious. I'm not very good at flirting anyway. I have to use the eyelash emoji liberally!

There was someone I was chatting to, trying to sort a date for a social which in all likelihood would've led to more. But I was put off by them publicly flirting with everyone else but never me. Like I was some kind of shameful secret. Fuck that.

What's blurring the lines if it's clearly platonic though? Is it not just... to use that word that appeared before... banter?

Oh flirting and teasing someone when there's that connection is so much fun! If that doesn't exist the connection doesn't in my mind. Maybe that's needy of me.

True story. .. I can’t remember the exact words. But if actually talking to people and having a laugh makes me look thirsty…wtf? Or desperate. Then you can shove your oppinions up your ass.

There are those that mistake flirting for come on .... but the problem generally lies with them and what they wanted to see rather than the other way around.

When someone flirts with me on here , I take it in jest ..... unless they are relentless - then I have to let them know that they have more chance of doing the impossible than arousing my interest in them or their fantasies.... BUT flirting is fantastic - it makes the world go around.

You're very flirty J! Yeah, okay, sometimes in a jokey dorky way but I wouldn't say you're not good at it.

Publicly flirting with everyone else but you is kind of crap. Sod that. I went through a phase of very much being a shameful secret. It's so... refreshing? No, it's really lovely to feel like someone desires me and they don't have to hide it in case it puts others off. Someone flirted with me recently and I grinned as soon as I saw it because I'm ridiculous and have a crush.

A gentle flirt. I like that. Yes, I flirt with my platonic friends. There's one in particular where we're firmly platonic but we do love each other. Flirting is a form of communicating. Of being silly, because we know each other well.

Do you think on the forums it can ever be overdone?

I like a bit flirty nonsense. In real life I am quite flirty but it doesn't mean anything more than I enjoy your company and I am comfortable.

Flirting is just fun to me and it never bothers me seeing others flirt. It makes me smile more often than not seeing the interactions.

My flirting skills with those I actually like completely suck. I'm more likely to send a message about something that makes me happy and want to share that, than flirt. I am not sure if that makes sense - more like "here is a piece of my thinking, I hope you like it as I wanted to share with you because I like you"

I may need to work on that and become a bit more forward

"I flirt with people I don't necessarily want to jump around with

I know people flirt with me who would never shag me in a million years

A gentle flirt, to me, is an extension of banter, a genuine liking and warmth for one another

It doesn't need to be a prelude to sex

A gentle flirt. I like that. Yes, I flirt with my platonic friends. There's one in particular where we're firmly platonic but we do love each other. Flirting is a form of communicating. Of being silly, because we know each other well.

Do you think on the forums it can ever be overdone?"

There is a nuance to flirting that makes all the difference

Done properly, it dances the line of amusement and feeling good

Done wrongly, or with unfaltering reglarity, it can appear too full on, to the degree of being almost aggressive

Probably if it moves to messages, either on here or elsewhere.

Actually yes this, I will often move conversations with people of genuine interest to messages. "

And not everyone is privileged to know who everyone is talking to. Could be a few could be just the one. Could been none.

I take private messages seriously to find out out actual intentions. Posting on public forums are for entertainment for them/me/everyone else.

I don’t mind if they are being flirty with others. I take it all with a pinch of salt anyway.

I think if someone was genuinely interested in me, they would have to be direct. I don’t find flirting to be an indicator of interest when it’s on a forum "

Have you ever found yourself doing this face when someone you genuinely likes flirts with you on the forum?

If it's someone you're not interested in and they flirt with you, would you still it as being harmless fun and respond in the same way as to someone you do like?

I find it cringey seeing it on the forums, as you know Meli.

The banter flirting is fine and compliments are too but the gushing over someone, then it’s someone else mins, hours, days later is

I have a good memory but it’s like some people seem to forget they’ve flirted with about 10 people in different threads.

Flirting, for me, is done in messages and if I’m saying something complimentary on the forums, it’s because there’s intent behind it.

Oh Meli, I have no idea when it comes to flirting *big sigh* Blatant flirting littered with sexual innuendos makes me uncomfortable after a few people taking it too seriously over the years if I responded in kind.

So, I thought I didn't flirt, but 2 people in the last year have said that I do, in my own "special" way. I'm yet to totally figure out what that looks like, but I suspect it means being playful in a non-sexual way. Yesterday I tried out the fluttery eyelash emoji, just to see what it would be like, and it didn't feel right. Hey ho.

If someone flirts with me I don't take it too seriously, especially if they're the sort to do so publicly with many many others. That does kind of put me off.

"I like flirty people. I enjoy their company. They are gregarious and love being with others ..... it does NOT mean that they fancy that person sexually. That gets a totally different kind of flirt/attention from the flirter, more focused , more clear intentionally.

There are those that mistake flirting for come on .... but the problem generally lies with them and what they wanted to see rather than the other way around.

When someone flirts with me on here , I take it in jest ..... unless they are relentless - then I have to let them know that they have more chance of doing the impossible than arousing my interest in them or their fantasies.... BUT flirting is fantastic - it makes the world go around. "

It makes the world go around is such a lovely way of looking at it, I like that.

I quite like flirty people as well. Those who like others, who love being around people and making others smile. It's a nice energy. Yes, sure, I'll tease them but I like people who like people.

I think... that as much as I've said otherwise previously, I may be quite a flirty person. I don't think anyone has misconstrued it so far and I don't think they will. I like flirting and the little thrill of someone reciprocating. My style of flirting isn't... Carry Onesque but it's probably noticeable.

I think there’s different levels to flirting and you can tell when someone is being playful or flirting with intent. If it comes across like they’re trying it on with anyone, it is a little off putting. "

What happens if they're genuinely interested in lots of people though? Would that put you off?

I don't think you do need to work on being forward. At all. There's not one true way of flirting is there? You can express interest in another in a myriad of ways, it doesn't mean your flirting sucks. It's how you communicate with another and if they're open to that style of flirting? Crack on.

I get the appeal and I want to feel the fun and enjoy it but often I end up feeling a bit awkward and just "meh". I guess it's because it leads no where.

If there is someone I genuinely like then it's different. I want flirty banter but equally I want blatant "I really want to feel your cock in my mouth".

However that's only great if I know they are actually into me and it's actually going to happen.

So, in short, I'm not a great flirt, I don't pick up when people are trying to flirt with me all that easily. And too much non genuine nonsense does put me off.

Yep, you are one of those two people. I'm so clueless that it took you to point that out for me to realise that there are different degrees of flirting, various nuances. I blame the autism.

I never notice when people are flirting with me, and I'm rubbish at flirting myself - partly because I find it hard to work out if it would be welcomed and how it would be taken. I have some platonic friends who I talk to in a slightly flirty way but that's because that's how they are, and we've known each other long enough to know there's nothing there that isn't platonic.

Apart from that, my attempts at flirting are like my attempts at dancing - awkward and rare.

Right everything I said above is null and void. Flirting even if it makes me feel awkward, is better than messages saying let me fuck those big tits.

I had no idea women thought about this and genuinely makes me re-think my approach to the forums... When I meet someone off the forums, I tend to flirt them less after because we would be flirting privately in conversations and I almost don't want to draw attention to the fact we've met, not because I'm ashamed, but because I find it cringey when two forum people have met and follow each other on every thread, flirting and making sure everyone knows they've fucked.

I probably have some soul-searching to do as I hate to think I've made any women I've met feel that way while flirting with others

Do you like being flirted with even if someone isn't interested in you?

If someone is naturally flirty with everyone, does that put you off them a little bit? Or make it harder to tell when it's intentional?"

Simply do it in private conversations are for privacy. So is flirting well for me.

Yes,it should feel natural. All be it in messages in private

I also find that cringey Joe and I think it's probably different *after* you've met. I'm not asking for LPP or more flirtiness but an acknowledgement of existence would be nice. The social hadn't even taken place and I felt completely ignored. So the social hasn't taken place.

Maybe you're unaware when you're flirting with someone but I've seen you flirt numerous times before Cede! I wouldn't say you need lessons. x

Maybe lessons in confidence. Less listening to the brain goblins because that seems to be a motif with your posts.

I think when we're feeling a bit unsure of ourselves, our insecurities have come to the forefront, we're less able to read positive interactions from others because we are focused on ourselves, our own inner voices rather than what another is saying.

It's a couple of things really. Firstly, it takes a lot to convince me that someone is or might be interested in me. Secondly I struggle to read interest even if I suspect it. And then I'm not always sure how to pitch flirting back even if I am sure people are flirting in the first place!

Once I get to the point of being completely comfortable with people I can get flirty and sexual but I have to be 100% sure it will be welcome. So if someone is flirting with me, and I'm confortable with them, then I can enjoy it a lot.
