talk about them sad girls. 
My way of talking tends to sound a bit flirty by nature, just because I find it easy to have a lighthearted chat with most people. Especially after a few drinks!
But when there's a guy I like I tend to go quiet as a mouse and turn bright red when I talk with him. Usually I end up avoiding him because of it.
Shyness is nice
But shyness can stop you
From doing all the things in life you'd like to

I've got exactly the same problem...
I wonder how many people in this world thought someone that they liked didn't like them because the person they liked got quiet and avoided them? Probably a lot...

Probably most of us...
And how many people did we make suffer by telling them we did not feel the same about them ?
when i was in high school if i fancied someone i wouldn't speak to them. ever. i was scared shitless of rejection or sounding stupid.
when i went to my five-year high school reunion i saw christian lentz, the fire of my loins for 3 long years. i went up and talked to him, asked him how his sister was (we were friends--but i still never spoke to her brother in school) and such. then i realized how shy he was and that he was not in fact zeus on mount olympus, but just a kid from westerly, RI. i was terrified of him! those three years wasted....
I guess I'm still a bit too shy to just go up to a girl and start yabbering on. I usually try for a bit of eye contact first. Being a bit short sighted it just looks like I'm staring at them, so that doesn't really work either. Every now and again a girl will just come up to me however. Unfortunately most of those are bushpigs.

Yeah, I figured out a while back that "the staring method" is not a great way to make contact. And nevermind all the "Unsolved Mysteries" and "Sightings"-type shows that made a living on psychic powers, I have yet to be able to flirt via telecommunication or ESP with a girl. The bad thing is getting started. Then it can get good if you hit it off
Rian wrote: I'm not allowed to flirt anymore, am I?
Anyway. I was really good at flirting when I was younger. Or I might got all the girls thanks to my look, I don't know.
I like to flirt a bit. It's nice to see if girls are still intrested in you, even when you are 38.
I would never cheat on my wife, but I love the feeling of knowing, that a girl/female so much wants me to follow her home.
Does this mean I'm bad?
Nothing bad, just as long as you keep your zipper zipped!
My big problem is knowing when to just flirt around and when to go ahead and "make a move". Usually I wait too long, trying to get into position as a "friend", and end up being such a good friend that they can't possibly consider dating me. 
But I do have countless hot friends...I got that going for me
Women put men in the "friend box" or the "boyfriend box" at the very beginning of getting to know them. If you go for being a friend first, guess which box they're going to put you in? And once you're in that box, you ain't going in the other box.
Now, about those hot friends of yours...

So, you're saying I should drop my trousers on the second meeting, in order to avoid "friend" status

I'd like to think I'm "Barry White Smooth"
, but fear I'm more "Corey Haim Bad"
when I try too hard. I do better when I'm not even aware that I'm "making my moves", I guess. It's really fun to flirt with someone who flirts back, I've noticed.
Anyway, what's your personal rating? Any advice for those who might not be so successful? Got any free food? I'm hungry...:p:
Cory Haim > Cory Feldman
My flirting ability has significantly improved for a few years. I was a complete loser when I was young(er) (I'm 33), but now I've found self-confidence and I like to play the flirting game. Recently, a girl I really like told me that she had thought of inviting me in her bed but that she didn't cos I'm a married man. I must admit that this is also the reason that makes me stay at flirt level: I don't feel like cheating.
Roguish eye contact is a cool way of flirting while having an apparently trivial conversation with someone. I tested it again not later than this morning. 
I can't go anywhere in this city without some woman making rogueish eye contact. Even when they're with some guy. Especially when they're with some guy.
Now, actually going out on a date, that's another story.

why don't you drive your stake through me, big boy?
there you go, much easier online. and when the intended party is too far away to approach you from behind, put a bag over your head and hustle you into the back of a van as you're walking down the street late at night.
That would be Trev. Right after he sharpened a wooden stake to drive through you, just as you requested. Flirting. It can be so confusing sometimes. Eh Trev?

So you wait until you've got her talkin' dirt, then you slip in a little magic, like:
Sure you kinky nightstalker, I've got a whole vessel of holy water to spray around.
