Ladies and gentlemen, we've all experienced a professional filterer at one point in the past four years. They flash the half grin, giggle, and maybe even throw in a wink. When encountering these creatures, my advice is to proceed with caution; and be wary of becoming one. Let me address the ladies first.
Ladies, I know how easy it is to fall for the little compliments and charming good looks but before you go planning your wedding, assess what their intentions really are. Are they just having fun or are they really looking for a relationship? Always make sure you're on the same page with someone before getting involved and falling head over heels. Are you the only one he flirts with? If you're not, this could give you an indication of his true intentions and what he may be like as a boyfriend. Try not to become a master flirt yourself. Remember that kindness can always be perceived differently.
Gentlemen, I don't think it's any secret that women are complicated beings. We, ourselves, have a hard time figuring it out. I can let you in on a big secret about the female mind. We fall for flirts. It's like we're hardwired. I don't now if it's our natural born tendency to be drawn to attention or if it's just a want for reciprocating feelings, but either way, it happens. So, my biggest advice is to watch what you say and how many times you flash those pearly whites. A little flirting goes a long way in the mind of a teenage girl.
Flirting is a completely natural and fun way to show that you're interested in someone and to get to know them. But above all else, it is to be used sparingly and wisely. Good luck in your flirting endeavors.
Love unconditionally.
I've witnessed flirts ruin perfect relationships. It's sad to see one person destroy something so simple. If you're going to compliment someone and make them feel good then you shouldn't "lead" them on. If you're going to flirt then follow through with it. If you don't have legit feelings for this person then you should just talk as friends. Point blank.
ReplyDeleteI just love reading your blog each week. It's so insightful and wonderfully written. I myself have sadly fallen for a flirt. It's really hard not to and I catch myself doing it from time to time. I've just started to stay back and when a guy is turely interested they'll let me know.
