Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

Heh. I knew it was a mistake to list people, because one always leaves somebody out. But I am prepared to make a sworn affidavit that juliana can flirt like a motherfucker.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The above works for that, as well.

In all honesty, I don't try. Because getting into flirt mode is a decision of sorts, and I just plain forget to do that around guys I like. I get so deep into the moment I'd need to have someone flashing signals at me from across the room to do anything that even vaguely hinted at artifice.

And that's not to slag on the seducers. I've seen it done nobly and well. I just never remember to even try.

I wave my bloody foot in your direction.

(that's not flirting.)

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

how exactly does a mother....

Nah. I don't wanna know.

how 'bout the sardonically raised eyebrow and low laugh?

Ya gotta read your audience.

That'd work better. It's not so much the audience as the expectations I've laid ground for.

At krav it might be.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

But I am prepared to make a sworn affidavit that juliana can flirt like a motherfucker.

Yay!!

(Why else do you think I was so popular in North Beach after only 3 weeks?)

My biggest issue wrt flirting vs. hitting on, was the receiver thinking the former was the later.

What was described up above by both ita and erin was almost always interpreted as having intent. No way you do that and not have many men I know not think you wanna hook-up.

And for me anyway, flirting loses all fun when a guy I don't wanna sleep with starts acting like the hook-up is ON.

Hmm. That can be a problem. I usually make it so eye-rollingly OBVIOUS that most guys pick up on it.

And I usually can pick up with the first few flirty pitches if a guy (or gal -- I'm an equal-op flirter) will Get It, or start slavering and whinging.

Sometimes I'm wrong, but at this point in my life, not often. And I save hard-core full-on-filth flirting to old pals.
