I'm with the whole loves-to-flirt crowd, and it's definitely about engaging with somebody at the level "Hey, you're sparkly and cool!" and not about intent.
I was going to say I don't really have crushes, but I certainly have a few Buffista crushes so that's not accurate.
But I don't pine. Well, I pined after JZ but I solved that by asking her to marry me.
Great solution, Hec.
I flirt in the "you are a mighty attractive* person and I sure am enjoying our badinage and I want you to know it" kind of way.
* And by attractive I mean, sexy, smart, funny, sweet, or any combination thereof.
I'm pretty sure no one's pining after me right now, which is just how I like it.

I think the flirting experts need to give seminars.
I'm pretty sure that "crushing" doesn't involve, you know, actual crushing....

If you have no intention of getting together with the guy you're flirting with...be unafraid. Smile like he's the only one that can see you doing it. Laugh for him alone, unless you're laughing to show everyone how delighted he's making you. Touch him, and lightly, unless you're copping a feel, which you do with a wink and a smile. Tell him things so grandiose he knows they are lies, but so seductive that he wishes they weren't. Lean. Speak low. And touch him again.
Now, if you actually want him to sleep with you, I have no suggestions.

We talked about this for the first F2F. I think it was going to be led by meara, Erin and me. Scrappy and Smonster and Cybervixen are all good flirters too.

You mean you have to
talk
to them!?!
ita's pretty much got it nailed. I like the bicep stroke, totally and hilariously overt eyelash-batting, and outrageously raunchy single-entrendres, too.
