How do you gauge interest of a flirtatious girl?

Question - (3 November 2010) 2 Answers - (Newest, 3 November 2010)
A male Canada age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Hello everyone,

There are these two girls (roommates) who live on my floor who are both really flirtatious with guys. Hard to explain but they give out hugs to everyone, if you watch a movie with them they will both snuggle with you to some extent, even give out kisses on the cheek. They are pretty touchy feely, but are both pretty reserved and don't hook up with just anybody. Obviously it is all innocent but that is just them.

I noticed earlier in the year was I sometimes caught one of them looking at me and smiling when we meet eyes when we were at parties in the same room. At first I thought she may be interested but once I saw how flirtatious she was I just brushed it off as being that. However one night she came in to my room following a small amount to drink and she talked to me about how she wanted a BF really badly, and how hard it was to meet guys, then fell asleep in my bed. Didn't stay the whole night and we didn't do anything just after that night I started developing feelings as I thought that could be a potential hint.

So acting on what I thought/think was a hint I am trying to hang out with her more, and as she told me before she is usually not the one to make the first move, I am trying to show her I am interested. When we watch movies we always sit really close together, shoulders and legs touching, she sometimes puts her legs over mine, or head on my shoulder/lap but remember both the girls leaned on me or put head on shoulder or lap before I knew them as well as I do now so I don't really know if any of those are real signs.

Tonight after leaving she gave me a hug, and when I left her room I saw my friend down the hall and he came to say goodnight too. He knows her almost as well as me but hasn't spent as much time alone with her. Both her and the other girl came out, and the one I like gave him a kiss on the cheek and went back to bed. She also hugged him for no reason the other day, while she rarely gives me hugs while sober (usually does when drinking) and never kisses me on the cheek while sober (again does sometimes when drinking).

Am I foolish for even thinking that something could happen? I am worried to make a move as I am really good friends with both of them and do not want to ruin the friendship or make it awkward. Like I said before she talked to me about her feelings on relationship earlier in the year (not same night as when she said she wanted BF), and she seems really sensitive and cautious when it comes to relationships and IMO her flirtatiousness is a cover for how shy she really is, however I could just be saying that to give myself false hope.

Any signs I should look out for?

Any ideas on what to do?

Thanks for any responses!

Sounds weird. For most girls I would say you've got plenty of signs that she is interested. But you say she does this with "everyone" so it's hard to know what to make of it.

IMO the leg action while she is cuddling with you says a lot. Even the biggest cuddly type girls usually don't start wiggling their legs into yours on purpose without it being kind of sexual.

Hi, well she could be giving the other guy hugs/kisses when shes's sober because she isn't as shy around him because she's not interested. I knwo for a fact that I get really shy around guys that I like so it could be the case here - if your spending lots of time together and sitting really close ect then more than likly I recon she's interested. But if your worried about the friendship thing then your going to have to go slow - perhaps chat to her other girl friend to see what she has said ect. Or just go for it and give her a kiss on the lips - see what happens

Good Luck!!!!!
