I just message whoever I like the look of myself. They can then directly tell me whether they are just playing or are genuinely flirting. |

"I find it very hard to tell the difference and have been told recently I hard to read when it comes to stuff like that. In person it's easy lol"
I don't know if I'm even worse in person. My shyness turns into awkward sarcasm.

over the years ive seen people get butt hurt as theyve misread banter for attraction. Just take everything on the forums with a pinch of salt. If someone wants you to know they are interested they will let you know

I generally think that flirting is the grease that lubricates the forum wheels, everyone flirts with everyone else, or many do at any rate.
I find that if its by PM that shows a greater intent, if its not direct though I just see it as good natured idling. I never know if someone likes me though, not unless they're direct and blunt. |

Another thing is you can’t pass the same criteria to a potential fb on here, that you would a date in real life. This place is soo far from everyday its unreal. Don’t kid yourself it’s not.
Those 100 guys messaging you a day might not take a second glance if you were the girl in the corner of the office.. |

If a guy is chatting to you on a regular basis daily then yea he’s definitely interested especially if he always messages you first and he’s quick to respond to messages you send him 100% but it’s different with women you have more control so it’s harder for us guys to pick up on that....I do shit on this site wether it’s my looks my size personality or just the pure fact I’m a single guy it’s hard lol but I’m still here and I do enjoy myself |

I struggle to differentiate between flurty banter, banter and genuine interest.
I often have to resort to asking people outright if they would be interested in meeting, even then I wouldn't know if it is purely social or if something more would be an option.
Despite my persona, I am no way near as confident as I portray and find myself questioning why anyone would have any interest in me sexually or otherwise. Fab probably isn't the best place for me but I enjoy the forums  |

And there's the rub. I have several friends on here that I believe want to get carnal with me. There are others that I believe want to meet me as a friend. And then there are others I want to meet but I don't know if they are just being polite because I am too far away.
My low self esteem is part of the equation and I manage that as best I can. There is a long story behind that but I'm too many gins away from a coherent explanation |

It’s much better for me to assume anything said is either flirtation or flattery or just being nice. At least then I’m less likely to embarrass myself. It’s a bit like testing a scientific hypothesis. I need overwhelming evidence disconfirming my null hypothesis, that there is no genuine interest’ for me to consider the alternative. |

Really maybe for you it is. I'm the same on here as real life if I wouldn't meet you in real life then I'm sure not meeting you here for whatever reason.
I also treat people the same dont get that back very often though. I've had to learn what the hard way and that's why someone would have to be something extreme for me to meet again.
Those 100 guys messaging you a day might not take a second glance if you were the girl in the corner of the office.."
That's why its important to keep it real and let most of this go straight over your head. So yes maybe you're right. |

I'm not too sure, I was getting flirty with two older women and said i'd be willing to travel, I don't expect people to literally sit there replying to one another for months on end till we meet but I figured I wouldn't get left on read after both parties are interested.
Not too fussed, nobody owes me anything O am just a tad confused  |

There and to the left a bit |
Unless someone comes right out and tells me I'm not great at spotting signals of any kind - the only time I get an indication, and even then I'm not sure, is if messaging gets to a point where it flows effortlessly and without holding back on any topic |

Not sure what more real is. I think the vast majority of my messages are just people being nice. On the whole I don’t attract any real sexual interest. |

From a quick scan of your profile I'd say any nice and admiring comments were genuine as you're a very sexy looking woman. As all women are. X |

Like as in attracted to? I need to be face to face to tell unless someone actually says outright. I assume everything on line is banter
Like as in personality I usually have no idea and frequently believe I'm not someone's cup of tea until they say something that makes me realise I am. |

I’m not great at reading the signs, what makes it worse is that most of the people I’ve messaged are so far away that the chances of meeting up and seeing if there’s an attraction are zero.
But it’s still nice to be told that someone thinks you’re awesome. We should all tell that person today  |

"How do you know if someone is keen on here? Can you tell the difference between "banter" and genuine attraction? "
It's think it's easier for men to determine that partly because of the sheer discrepancy in numbers of men to women.
I'm good at noticing when there's genuine interest and act on it if it's mutual on my part |

like you to chat to you or want to rip your clothes off? There are plenty who like me enough to chat to, very few or less really want to rip my clothes off.

To be fair when I first met you and we were kissing for 10 minutes I still went home thinking “I wonder if she likes me”

I find the direct approach works best, I haven’t the time or inclination to fanny around trying to suss out signals on here.
If you like me tell me and vice versa... |

I like the direct approach, as mentioned if you like me tell me, as for forums I think it’s banter until someone messages me directly then I think they’re interested whether it’s just something I’ve put, but always best to just be open and tell if you like the person |

Can I tell if it's just given out to everyone flirting or genuine? Yeah, it's normally quite obvious.
