I am very very bad at flirting. When a guy starts flirting with me, I can only give a smile and yes/no answers. And when a guy compliments my necklace/ hair/ dress is that flirting? What should I do to be a better flirt? Thanks from a shy college girl

Aw. I am almost positive you are doing just fine. So long as you don't drool, or cackle maniacally, or, I don't know, moo, you're doing just fine. Obviously, you're approachable. There are alot of women out there who are human icebergs. They act like they grew up on the Ice Planet of Hoth. I bet you are a very warm, genuine women with a pretty smile.

Otherwise, the dudes wouldn't be coming up to you. College guys are clueless gorillas who drink beer and play with action figures. And most are just as shy as you. Remember that next time. It probably was a small act of courage to lumber up to you and compliment your necklace or just say "hi." Return the favor by being a little bit brave, and compliment him on something.

Flirting is like ping-pong. Just keep the ball bouncing back and forth. Compliment him, talk about the weather, ask him about his favorite television show. Talk about a crazy thing you saw online, crack a joke, or just ask him questions about him. It's really easy. Pretend he's like one of your female friends, up until the part where, maybe later, he leans in for a sloppy kiss that you don't even see and the next thing you know: his lips are wrapped around your nose.

I'm pretty sure I do cackle, but I'm a whole different story. ^^;

This seems like good advice to me. I never expect guys to flirt with me and when they do I look at them like they have two heads or something. I don't mean to seem cold, but I guess I figured if I shut down the guy right off the bat I won't get the chance to giggle like a schoolgirl and potentially make a fool of myself. Needless to say, I'm still single.

I just want to say that often times, women act indifferent to hide their true feelings. Especially attractive women.....more so if they are insecure. Indifference and acting like icebergs actually is a way of hiding their sensitivity. Im an attractive young woman and I once IGNORED, refused to look at, talk to, unacknowledged a particular man because I was head over heals crazy about him. I knew we had something going on and ultimately I was too afraid to let him get close. Furthermore, his fustration and sincerity made it worst for me because I went home everyday exhausted from breaking his and my heart. Needless to say,several months later he married his fiance, and today Im single and missed an opportunity to enjoy what I would have imagined as a great relationship. Overall, if I was strong enough, I would have allowed myself to react differently! Therefore, I think attractive women have it harder. Icebergs really are just hiding extreme sensitivity!

Story of my life, B. Story of my life.

I do this myself. If I am crazy nuts for someone, I pretend he doesn't exist, even if he flirts with me first. It's scary to put your heart out there when you don't really even know if the guy really likes you, is being polite, or just looking for a laugh. The last one is a real soul-destroyer: he pretends to like you, then when you respond, he walks away laughing his ass off.
Ugh. I need a drink.

John, I'm not sure that "pretending that you're with one of your female friends" works. My own female friends, who are popular, say that I don't make any distinctions, which is why I'm terribly unpopular. I don't even know when someone flirts really. And then when I attempt to, I manage to freak out almost every time, and usually end up backtracking and apologising profusely. The guys characterise this as "funny" but I think they mean more "funny in the head" -- or maybe I'm like an episode of something that should be showed on Comedy Central. And of course, needless to say, I'm still single.

Either way I empathise with the poor person who asked this question. I'm just not sure John's advice works -- but then no one ever comes up to me to give me compliments anyway *shrugs*

Sounds like me.... Single, bumbling, overly-apologetic, acne-ridden, practically friendless (et cetera) college girl. I have forgotten how to socialize, and I am not sure if I can now tell flirting from a friendly conversation. Good luck your way, though! If I knew how to flirt, I would give you some advice. The last time I found a guy I was sincerely interested in, I tried talking with him...and he moved across the country without asking for my contact info. FAIL.

Moo? Hahaha.

Wait. Are there really girls who moo when a guy flirts with them?

I am afraid that, that will be the scenario that ends up playing out for the Chicago Cubs. Although, I still insist that it is going to take a better pitching prospect than Coleman to get a deal done. Boston almost had a deal done with him, so I would not be surprised to see them get him. But, they have been more cautious of late to give up on their top prospects.

Just right issues?I'd note that as any person who really doesn't write on blogs a lot (if truth be told, this can be my first submit), I don't think the term 'lurker' may be very turning into to a non-posting reader. It's no longer your fault in the least , but perhaps the blogosphere may just come up with a better, non-creepy title for the 90% people that revel in reading the content material .
