hmmm... the art of flirting... thin line between just chatting and wanting to "bed" someone... Flirting is a basic instinct, part of human nature. This is not surprising: if we did not initiate contact and express interest in members of the opposite sex, we would not progress to reproduction, and the human species would become extinct.
both sexes flirt... but we each have our own views on flirting... some women would find it ok if their men flirt... some don't want their men to even look at a woman... it is natural to all mammals... it is innate... the question is, how far would the words go?
Flirting is a common form of social interaction whereby one person obliquely indicates a romantic and/or sexual interest towards another. It can consist of conversation, body language, or brief physical contact.
But others would define flirting as simply knowing the rules of conversation.
