Flirting, like many forms of communication, is a lost art.
I have been a flirt since I was a kid. I am in sales, so that helps.
I find that the older I get, the more I am turned on by a man who really understands the power of intellectual flirting, banter, and the power to figure out what buttons to push, etc. Sometimes the most turned on I have ever been was from the power of words that someone used in flirting.
Flirting to me is a seduction; and these days, so many men approach with a bluntness that bores me. In our highly technological world , people are more interested in the immediate gratification than the flirting which is more of a build up. There really is a difference to me between someone saying/writing, wow you are hot instead of making a comment on something I wrote.
The other day, I was in a supermarket. This really attractive guy let me go ahead of him at a counter and I just smiled and said thank you. He then proceeded to follow me around the store, like just appear in every aisle I was in.
He just never SAID anything. Finally, I stopped and said, can I help you with anything? He started flirting which was really fun for a few minutes and then he said, I would love to keep this conversation going. I said, that sounds great.
Waiting...waiting...waiting....for a card exchange, cell number exchange, something proactive.
Instead he says, great! Tells me his name and say do you have Facebook, look me up.
I just sighed and said, wow, that was just the in person equivalent of "you have yahoo? here is my IM." He was like, Uh.uh..
I instantly lost interest and he lost an opportunity started by good flirting and ruined by being an idiot.
