Men,

How do you like women to flirt with you?

I'm asking for preferences as well as favorite memories.

I'm also asking, because sometimes I think I'm not so good at it. At times, I've been told I was cold or intimidating (often because I was unaware the person had feelings for me). This can work the other way too, if you are just genuinely friendly with a person and they mistake that for flirting. Other times, I was told I came on too strong.

Most of my successful flirting has been accidental, but I'm getting to the age where I think I have to try just a little bit. I'm trying to get the hang of it and today I was pretty proud of myself after I I approached a guy in my building who's been making eyes at me for a while. He looked a excited and a little scared that I was talking to him. I kept it brief and just asked him about his work. I think it made him feel good, and I know it made me feel good. Sometimes I think flirting and the prelude is the most fun part of the relationship.

Men, please share you preferences and stories?

No Im sure there are other men who are prepared to add some more answers- this questions was pretty easy to answer I thought ;) - Yes it's a very rare thing (in my case) to have someone flirt with me- I guess in the environment in which i work everyone is taken and they dont want to send the wrong signals, and sadly Im not the most sociable person in the world so dont get to be exposed to other environments where you are likely to see flirting, such as a pub for example. On a rare occasion I was at a resturant/bar recently and did notice that women liked to touch a lot (and I didnt know them) - i think i was just blocking their route to the bar itself- it was pretty crowded :)

Thanks for the lone answer.

I guess this question was uninteresting to men or they are keeping their trade secrets to themselves.

I definitely think flirting can give other people confidence too to engage and chat with you.

More often, would be the short answer - (no one ever flirts with me (sniff sniff)). I know what you mean about the guy who felt scared at you talking to him. Something similar happened to me a while ago at work, where a lady and I had up until that point only exchange lots of eye contact with and the odd hello, nothing else. One day while i was working she walked right up to me and started talking to me. To say I felt uncomfortable was an understatement, although we had a short chat, and it really made my day . Since then we have conversed many times, but no more than that as she is married, unfortunatly for me.

Sorry didnt really answer your question, but i guess if anything sometimes the guy really appreciates being approached by a woman for a change. Good luck!
