Flirting is leaving crumbs – it’s a no brainer when the chemistry is there. Like you said, don’t try and force your desperation, that feeling of wrong is all yours not chemistry. 😀 Shouldn’t be work.

flirting does not work, in 2025. And even if you were good person, people will see you as worthless, or unlovable because you are authentic, and you deserve to be loved but people are too selfish with high standards and so those who are good or authentic and actually are trying are always thrown aside, like an item. flirting ain’t going to change anything, unless you have a medal, of worth to selfish people. Love doesn’t exist, its all status and degrading. and it is absolutely transactional.
@AuraSpring101

So if you want, real love, don’t expect it from anyone, just love yourself and know, you are powerful. Because you are you.;

Flirting witjhout good purposeful true intent is deceit. It is a form of manipulation. Deceiving, and manipulating people is a super power weilded by narcisstics, psychopaths, and generallly evil people. Just because some person makes a speech about it, flowering it to justify evil action, doesn’t mean its right, nor should it resonate with everyone.

My parents always tell me I’m natural in flirting, apparently I was doing it already with three years old😅
The thing is, I don’t flirt intentionally. It’s just my way of making communication fun. And I’m just always curious and interested and excited about other people, so guess that helps.

Definitely going to add her to my list of people grow from? Thanks a million for bringing her to light!

I’ve always thought that I’m clueless when it comes to flirting…well, with her definition of flirting (making the other person feel seen, special, acknowledged), I realize I’ve been a great flirt all my life! Lol I naturally make ppl feel all these things when I’m talking to them, esp strangers and new ppl I’m meeting, AND with a sweet smile and eye contact! I actually don’t like the spotlight on me very much, so I always turn the lens towards them, just out of genuine curiosity mostly, but also to be friendly and kind, have a listening ear, giving them my time of day…hope to flirt with you one day! 😅
