ARghhhh!!!

I thought maybe you'd find this very interesting...maybe we can have some spicy discussion about it!



"Flirting is the way most people determine whether or not a member of the opposite sex is interested in them. Following is a quick outline on how you should go about the complex, sometimes fun, sometimes not so fun, task of flirting. It all beings with your approach.

The Approach One person approaches the other. They move into closer physical proximity. This much is clear: NO approach equals NO possibility of initiating contact. You must approach!

Example: A woman sits down next to a man in a coffee shop, or a man stands near a woman in a dance club. This is the first step. Once you approach, you begin looking for the signs.
The Signs

The person who has been approached will always signal the other's presence in some way…a sign. This signal is not like a train whistle, however, more a subtle body language which you can learn to recognize. For example, he or she simply may look up, move over to make room, nod slightly, or signal with a glancing eye contact.

A display of total obliviousness to the one who is approaching generally indicates lack of interest altogether. Don’t be discouraged. But if the one you approached shows absolutely no interest, then it's time to re-group and try again. But let's say the approach works. You have your positive acknowledgement, now what? Time to talk

The Verbal Exchange

The two people may then engage in a mild verbal exchange about impersonal, unimportant matters such as the weather or the scene around them. The key word here is MILD.

This is the classic place for the clever "line," but cleverness is not required. At this point, a verbal exchange is not for the purpose of sharing valuable insights about life or determining philosophical compatibility. It is just a vehicle to further the developing contact.

Examples: Verbal overtures might include anything from "please pass the pickles" to "your looking great tonight", to "have you seen the waitress?". Without some form of verbal response, it is highly unlikely that the next step will occur. Let's say all is going as planned. Time for body language.

Body Language

Over a period of time, a couple that has begun to talk may also begin to orient themselves physically to one another, to turn toward one another until, if all is goes well, they are fully facing one another. This is your goal.

This step can take minutes or hours . . . or weeks or months . . . to achieve. Yet, without this physical reorientation toward one another, not very much can ever happen, so give up on people who turn their back toward you for long periods of time! But if they don't…


Touching

The woman or the man (most often the woman) touches the other in a light, fleeting way. Examples: A couple might accidentally brush their hands against one another while reaching for a drink, or the woman might pat the man on the arm in the middle of a shared joke. The exchange of very subtle, almost glancing touches may continue for some while, and if all goes well, can escalate into the casual affections shown by couples who are dating. If you've reached this point, then flirting has now become the beginning of a relationship. The Art of Flirting should always end with the beginning of a relationship. Now get out there and flirt.

The Art of Flirting is really the Art of making first contact. You only have one shot at making a great first impression. By following some of the guidelines we’ve established in this article, you should now be equipped to locate, approach, and ascertain whether or not your subtle flirting has opened the doors to a new and exciting relationship."



I just got this in my mail...so what do you think?

*in a nerdy voice* I think my flirter is broken. Seriously though; I've never been much for flirting, I'm not a talkative person and I'm not much for physical contact, so women apparently will always find me disinterested. Well, at least now I know why.

Flirting can't be  expressed in talking alone.  Flirting can be in a form of body language.  He heh e..omg!  I'm I starting to act like some expert teacher in flirting? he heh e...No really, flirting is not typically negative.  I mean we need flirting sometimes not just to get some hot guy or gal's attention.  Flirting can be used in any form...Don't get me wrong but we used to flirt with our parents before when we want something from them...right?

" I think my flirter is broken"...,nah!  hush!  No such thing...It's within you...We are all gifted with such skills the only problem is on how to use it as a tool....Flirting is an art!  It is something that we should flaunt not in a exaggerated manner but flaunt it ...if needed...

The 'flirter is broken' was just a joke really. I can and occasionally do flirt.....I'm just not trully interested 99% of the time. 'hot girls' don't really attract me in a way I'll be likely to act on. Unfortunately the things that would attract me only become apparent after knowing a person for a long time and by then neither side generally wants to risk their friendship by entering into a deeper relationship. Que sera, sera.

looks are only part of the package, if a girl's hot but dumb as a sack of doorknobs, she isn't worth my time.

Looks don't even matter to me anymore........they help, a little, but I'd rather just have a woman at my side who loves me and is loyal than one I can't trust.

That's quite touchy.  And ladies who sleep with the guy during the first date is not trust-worthy at all? 
Should we judge a lady who sleeps with the guy during the first date as one woman that needed to be avoided?
I mean really, should we just base our judgement of one's character over some honest mistake perhaps?
Or should we at least widen our understanding about human or most especially women's behavior.

They are potentially lethal to a man's health, since people who often engage in casual sexual relationships are prone to picking up dangerous dieases like Aids and Hepatitis B.  Hence, such a woman might unwittingly serve as a carrier for a plague of the above-mentioned kind.

Not a woman to be trusted indeed!  bat

We must each of us base our decisions on who our bedfellows are both on the advice of others we trust, and on ourr own experiences. Both of which in my case say that a woman who will sleep with a man on the first date is not worth being with. A man needs to appreciate a woman, the hunt is part of the mating ritual and gives us both a sense of our woman's worth and a sense of our own worth. If she lies down and does not run; if she makes herself 'easy prey'; then she is not a worthy 'catch'. The struggle to catch and hold a woman's attentions long enough to mate, and yes bare children and live together for a lifetime; those things are what make a man feel good about himself. For a real man, it is not the number of notches on his belt; but the quality of the women for whom those notches were etched. A good man will only have a few at most.....not for lack of libido, but for lack of immaturity. Only boys play games and try to win as often as possible. Men only want to win that one time that will end the necessity for future conquests.

The art of flirting is that there is no art..... looks are definately first, and after that its up in the air...... the only thing i dont understand is, Why can men go out and sleep with 100 women on the first date, and they are a stud.  But when a girl does the same thing (sleeping with 100 men, on the first date) why are they whores.   AS FAR AS IM CONCERNED WE ARE ALL ANIMALS AND HAVE THE SAME THE SAME ANIMAL INSTINCS, WHICH IS TO DO WHAT FEELS GOOD.

Actually, flirting is quite an art.  At least effective flirting.  I don't care about how hot a person is, I care about how much I enjoy their company, how respectful they are, and how interesting they are.  All of that is communicated by the words they choose, their posture, and their eye contact.  Looks don't hurt, but they have no sway over who I want to sleep with.

Honestly, men who sleep with women on the first date are looked down upon just as much as women who do.  They get the same kind of negative reputation and are avoided.  Women gossip to other women about which men try too hard to get too close too fast so that similar experiences are avoided.  I know quite a few men and women that are avoided because they are seen as "easy", and therefore non-commital and not worth the little effort it takes to have them.  Animal instincts are not something to base a lasting relationship off of.  Doing simply what feels good without respect, standards, and common sense is a very dangerous and unfulfilling way to live your life, in my opinion.

Flirt is all about communication, I don't know anything about flirting being an art but it's defininitly a way of language: physical or not. Clueless people like any other feels attracted to someone, they would wish to iniciate a relationship, but automatically do it by flirting. Marriage is after having them as a boy/girlfriend, before  this you need to date, flirting is a innocent way into getting to know each other and choosing the right person to have standing by your side for the rest of your life; luckly it isn't like the old times where the marriage is the *rich* choice of the parents and there was no divorce neither.

About girls sleeping with men at the very first date; it is equal to both, but the men take advantage because they're nearly never victims of rape or blamed for pregnancy AND it's more likely comun for a easy lady to be mistaken for prostitute (which must be a very bad reputation for woman).

I find it dumb, in other distant countries, men can have more than one wife. angry

I'm afraid you're allowing ill-suited Western notions of romantic love to cloud your thinking. A men who takes more than one wive, can always rest assured, that should his first spouse come to an untimely end, there will always be another woman in the home to manage the children in the house-hold.  In more liberal nations, taking a second wife  may even free up the first wife to pursue interests that were previously out of reach, due to her pressing domestic commitments. In some parts of the East, it is not uncommon for certain enlightened women to urge their husbands to marry a second wive should his next prospective bride be a destitute widow in dire need of a man to support her. Personally, I find nothing wrong with a man taking a second wife as long as the existing spouse is agreeable and content, and the man in question, can provide amply for his extended family. Do understand that marriage does not neccessarily have to be based completely on something as flimsy and short-lived as romantic love.

Depends on the situation... really, a woman has her choice of living. Other cases where it's just normally a couple, divorce usually occurs if the wife is cheated on, but what if it was two wives there is no betrayal anymore.... I may agree with you but how would YOU feel if your wife had a second husband? A third? A fourth? (Even if you're not married..) Yes, but SOME marriages are not based on romantic love, doesn't mean ALL are, we are all human afterall but that is just my opinion. I was looking into history of sorts, in time to time there are various stories of kings in Egypt and so on who was the husband of what, 6, 7 wives?

This brings up another traditional marriage, in old times where womans' freedom to work and vote were rare, poor families had the hopes for the boys to get a good job, while the girls were to arrange a rich man for marriage so it won't be based on love neither. Well, here's my two cents.
