i remember one time i was just hanging out with my friends.. and i was talking with one of my guy friends (we'll just say his name is brian)....then when most of the people left and it was just me and one of my girl pals were still there, she was like were you flirting with Brian? I was like no i was just only talkin to him. She looked at me like "i know u were flirting" kind of look. I was just talking to the guy and had no intention of flirting with him.


does that happen to u .. like ur friends were like ur flirting and u have to tell them it was just nothing... and how can someone tell the difference between flirting and just talking.

well it depends on the person..if you're normally shy and you talk a lot then maybe it's flirting? i don't know..it really depends on you.

haha i can totally agree .. i bet the people that say "your flirting" just are jealous or something. they can get lost in a trashcan or something
EmmalieV
yeah i can i always flirt on purpose.
Shattered_Hope
Not really...I'm talking to this guy and later on my friend says I'm flirting...I can't really tell the difference... sad.gif

well when you talk to a guy, you want him to know that you like him (as a friend of course) and not dislike him for no reason. i know i don`t wanna sound bored of someone! tongue.gif

Happens to me all the time. I'm NOT a flirt. But I have all these guy friends and I joke around with them.. they hug me sometimes, and it just gets taken wrong.. uck.


Just don't be as touchy?? Erdon'tknow.

Well, it's kind of hard to tell sometimes when a girl talks to a guy non-romantically. You were probably acting very friendly, but that's how some girls flirt. Most girls "joke around" with their guy friends, but to someone watching, who doesn't know that they're just friends, it can look pretty flirty...

yeah thats happened...but its hard to tell since girls all flirt differently so yeh.

i cant really tell the difference. i've had people come up to me and ask if i was flirting. i think when i get in a really good mood im just happy around everyone cuz im not a flirt. me and my friends are a pretty close group and we all hug but it never goes past that trust me! i guess theres a fine line between flirting and being friendly but i sometimes have a hard time finding it!

my friends cant tellthe difference if their lives were depended on it.
to them, talking to a guy = flirting with major love connection

I can't tell what I do either. o_O I remember going to this theme park with my friend, and at the end she as like, "Oh, were you flirting with my cousin??" I'm like, "What?! No.".. I guess it's just how I act? >_<

sexii_dessert
i think it's really annoying. they keep saying "your flirting" when im asking him a question? and then they make up rumors...makes me want to tear they're head off shifty.gif

Well what I think is that if you laugh in a cute way or give that look of showing your cute side toward him or your sexy look. That's what I call flirtatious. Maybe your friend didn't really know what flirting means?
toodlepops.
but you didn't intend to flirt. so i guess its not?
runforfun529
That happens all the time. Maybe its because I used to be really shy, but now I talk a lot and people think that means that if I all of a sudden talk to a guy I'm in love with him or something. I actually find it kind of funny.
misoshiru
no i cant tell at all.
DanielleMaria05
Well, i have 2 friends that flirt all the time, they dont' actually realize they're doing it, but they do. and When i bring it to their attention, they were like, I wasn't. I dont even like him/her... and im like u so were!
njgurl412
i think its odd that my friends know when im flirting but they don't know when they themselves are flirting.
MiLKDUD_DOKiE
well yeah there's a big difference when your flirting your like moving alot and smiling and nudging them with your elbow and when your talking your just talking xP

Flirting = You laugh a lot, and if the guy says something like, "Yeah, I like soccer." And your response is something along the lines of, "OMG! I like TOTALLY LOVE soccer! It's like the only sport I watch and PLAY! OMG, you're like so totally AWESOME!" And you really don't like soccer THAT much, then . . . yeah.

Talking = You're just talking. Once again the guy says, "Yeah, I like The Offspring." And you're like, "Yeah, The Offspring's pretty cool. I never knew you liked them . . ." Or responding similar to that, then that's not being flirty.

dont listen to your friends, dont let that get to you..you know you werent so why should you belive them?
lilJdawg
Yeah, there's a big difference between flirting & talking to a guy.

Flirting:
when your touching him, like making obvious signs that you like him

Talk:
when your just talking regularly.

some people just don't understand that. For me, like when i ask people if they know a guy, like will be like, "ohh do you like him?" it gets annoying.

OMFG i HATE it when that happenS!!! like i'm really touchy with all my friends >> i get about ten hugs a day.. and thats girls only its about 15 or 20 after guys biggrin.gif and when i talk to a guy i really CONCENTRATE on him. like i focus on what he's saying and i dont divert my attention. then my friends come along and they're all like GASP you were FLIRTING!!! and all I (and my guy friend) was doing was poking each other. pinch.gif

but my two personal favorites:
when i was talking to my brother. and my friends thought i was hitting on him.. and i was like HELLO WHAT KIND OF FREAKS ARE YOU THATS MY EFFING BROTHER!! oh man that was hilarious.

and i was wrestling with a guy cuz he stole my lunch. =X whats wrong with that? all i wanted was my breadsticks back. its HIS fault that he wouldnt give them to meh. wacko.gif

ROFL

hmm, some people say i flirt cause i talk alot with them ermm.gif
it depends, cause if i know them longer, i get more comfortable around them and therefore talk to them.
if i don't know them really much, i don't.
Secrecy831x2
Ahhh yeah that's happened to me..They don't believe you till you do somethin like jump off a cliff to make em believe the truth _dry.gif
Yrpsyuna
if you're talking, u shouldn't be flirting, I guess it depends on what you're talking about..and how long o.o
TYPiKALFEMME
omg that happens to me; like i talk to guys and my friends assume that im flirting or that i like him--its so dumb that they think that
suddenly she
people say i flirt a lot. people also say i'm a tomboy.

wow, i hate that word. but it works, since i believe i am. i can't tell when i'm flirting at all.
aicilah999
i think laughing... and teasing...
but then again, ppl have different ways of flirting
blah122986
people just assume things sometimes...like muh friends alwayz say im flirting with EVERYONE but im just really talkin to them....
No1_2_NoBody13
i think flirting is when your playfully hitting him and just look like your really into him but just sitting and talking is not flirting....do you like this guy or somthing blink.gif
pingpang_0811
um... i think talking to a guy is just a normal talk, like asking sth.... or some serious matter.
but flirting a guy is talking to someone u r interested in.
i think that's the different... but i'm not sure

Well i was talking to this boy about football/soccer and hes in sixth form and my friends said i was flirting and said i was too young to go out with him anyway, i was a like wtf! we were only talking because he supported the same team as me. My friends always do it and its really annoying, the girls i see flirting usually touch the person on the arm or something lol. My friends always jump to conclusions, they always flirt all the time, yesterday my friends were on a bus just making out with people lol.
rOckThISshYt
I think that happens to everyone every once in a while. Always happens to me cuz I'm a natural flirt. happy.gif
goofipinay
aha
well i love hugs and i always give/get them and my friends always say that..but then my best friend told me that sometimes she wishes i would move so she can have my guy friends o.O thats a little mean...i think
but..yea, i get a lil flirty at times
