Humour. Smart Arsery. Cheekiness. Comes across as far more charming and flirtatious in person but people with the matching senses of humour usually can pick up on it on line.

What works with me?

Not vague naughty. To me that sounds like pure cheese. I like *wit* and banter, not "soft and saucy".

Best way to impress me is - intellect, humour, cockiness, self deprecatory humour, able to take the piss out of me and laugh when I do it to them. And being blunt *really* helps. Not pushy, blunt. Say what you want and then while I panic, laugh, chill and make a joke and order anther drink, smoothly go into another subject and revisit the suggestion later, after I've gotten past my initial knee jerk panick reaction in my head. It will more than likely be yes.


If I look deer in headlights, fumble for a non-answer and be vague, that's a *really* good sign.
I I look perfectly calm, stare right at you and say "no thank you" in a polite voice - it's no.

The more polite I am, the less interested I am.

I'm a bit of a tease. If I like you, I'll pick on you in a playful manner...if I can work up the guts to do it.

My flirting style is attentive and complimentary, I suppose. I am fairly quiet and keep to myself, so if I am paying a good amount of attention to you, that is a hint.

I am very complimentary and humorous if I like a person. Not sure how well everything plays over, given that the telepathy tends to have a higher batting average. That's why I prefer online dating, there is only one reason I am contacting you, lol.

I have no idea :|

Does anyone have a 2x4 handy

I like people to hit me with a cricket bat. But I like a bit of flare

* laughs
That works too

Non-existent.

I'm regularly thankful for my dimples because they make up for my complete lack of flirtation ability.

Me too on that one. And my hair.... I have crazy cool hair that a lot of women love.

If anyone flirts with me I'm usually oblivious

I missed out on the flirtation gene completely, both doing and receiving!

However, I'm in "like" with you if I'm cracking bad jokes, being klutzy, or bringing up obscure topics (nuclear physics, for example).

*hand up, really high*

Miss?! Miss!! TL1 and Randrum are chatting Bullocks

LOL!!!!!
What?

Haha. We'll have to agree to disagree on that.

I don't flirt, generally. But i love interacting with people, especially joking around and giving (sincere) compliments and occasionally that gets mistaken as flirting. The only time it's been a true problem is when someone gets jealous over it. But...that's a good sign that i'm not going to be a good match with said person...so it all works out i guess.

For me it's primarily some playful banter. I enjoy flirting very much ... particularly with someone who has a quick wit. Flirting that causes her or me to smile or laugh is the best. :)

il mio cuore e stato conquistato da qualcuno...io veramente adoro.

IMO, flirting starts with eye contacts, it shows how much he or she's interested in you. Psychology Today states that your eyes are the window to your soul.

"Psychologists consider pupil dilation to be an honest cue to sexual or social interest. That’s because pupil size isn’t under your voluntary control. Let’s say you’re trying to fake interest as your coworker recounts every play in his weekend golf game. You can force a smile. You might even remember to crinkle the corners of your eyes, to make that smile look real. But your tiny pupils will reveal your lack of interest."

Once I'm interested in the person, I find myself curling my hair playfully or make subtle touch on hand or shoulder.

If you're close enough to note pupil dilation, you've passed flirting. ;)

flirting is very seductive ~
