Some people do it without even noticing. Its just how they interact with people. The flirting is harmless as long as the other person is on the same page. Don't lead them on to believe there could be something more when you know there can't be.

it just pings off all the right hormones, it's (supposed to be) clever and funny conversation, that anyone can get into with anyone else because you chat about common things, and express common sentimentl. it's about paying people compliments and getting them back, enjoying someone's company and showing that you do! \n\nYou excercise your powers of observation, everything doesn't have to be true, flirting isn't supposed to make people feel bad, just happy, attractive and appreciated...\n\nanybody would love that! I just wish more people would go there.

Sometimes and that's ok.  Some people just have flirtatious personalities, as long as it doesn't go past that I'm ok with it.

For some people flirting is just in their personality. Now if it's flirting with the intent to cheat, or they are being very suggestive, then I don't think it's acceptable. Still, while it may be innapprorpriate, I wouldn't call it cheating.

lmbo - great question!  Flirting is very subtle - there is definitely an art to it & some folks just never get it, no matter what. Gushing is over the top & tends to come across as cheezy, a lot insincere. Flirting will draw you in, make you wanna go down that path, fill your senses with the possibilites of what if & make you quite certain you are the only person in the universe who fills the bill. Gushing tends to run all over the place, making too much noise & will repel someone you wish to draw closer. I prefer to flirt but knowing when the time is right is important, too!

Umm...well...Eden has perhaps missed the question's point...flirting as in initial content or introducing yourself...not getting to the "I love you" portion of a relationship yet...what holds my attention is eye contact...hold me with your eyes...hold my attention with your stare as we are introduced...or your saying "hi..."....

From my limited experience, there are several "levels" of flirting.  From actions as seemingly insignificant as the accidental brush of an elbow, to the obvious pick-up line.  It's all a matter of intention.  Men and women tend to percieve matters of communication differently, therefor the wink in question could be just a simple acknowledgement of attraction, or an invitation to something more...

Flirting is a game. It is better when two people play it who know the rules and who are good at it.\n\nThe rules are different between every two people who flirt, you either understand what is going on or you don't. You are trying to make the person more interested in you than you are in them; this can turn into a bit of a competition. Or you are trying to flatter the person by flirting with them i.e. when much older ladies flirt with much younger men just for laughs.\n\nFlirting is not to be confused with 'getting someone to like you' which is much more serious.
