Princessbelle, that's exactly what I meant. That statement came from someone I've known for a while. So I guess knowing it means more just has to come with time I guess.
Oneofakind, yes text flirting can be a game of wits and very clever. |

The approach depends on the individual I guess... I'll volunteer two texts I've used with positive results in the past...
============================== Subtle: Sitting alone at the bar of my favorite restaurant I snapped a pic of a tall glass of chardonnay and texted it to her. No words. Direct: "Dinner. I'm buying. You're drinking )" ============================== |

UofMean really hates it when people type her name wrong.

I like that someone described it as a game of wits and clever. I recently shared this experience with someone, and it was a beautiful thing. I have 3300 saved text messages from this exchange (it went on for months), and I am too sentimental to delete them. It is a rather modern log of an ongoing conversation that never got tired or boring for me.
I'm a writer by trade, and I sometimes find text messages a little claustrophobic, and opt for the "larger canvas" of an email. However, texting is handy, convenient and can be done almost anywhere. And I appreciate the instant outbreak of wordplay that texting can accommodate. Jake |

Perhaps "U" should not have created a name where it was so easy to transpose.

Speaking of flirting...
I personally see it like this.. It is individualized. Everyone does it his or her own way. No one is right or wrong when it comes to everyone's personal style. To each his/her own. Just go with the flow. Not only do people flirt differently but they may flirt differently with different people. The question was about texting and IMO it's easy to read too much or not enough in what may seem to be a flirty text. Whether you text something out of the blue or plan it for just the right time, just like most things in life, if your interested, give it a shot. Last i looked, there are no rules for such things. It's pretty easy to figure out if it's working or not.....eventually.

Nope. Not from me. I didn't start it. Leave me out of this. I'm just an innocent bystander. Unless of course money is involved.

Besides the fact that my name is not UFO, and I find that to be a little dismissive, I have three things that stick out from your post. 1. Boys and bois, perhaps there lies the difference. 2. If I ever have to Google a flirt I would officially ask Bete to shoot me first. 3. I am too much of a gentleman to engage in childless competitions. Ms. Belle is a dear friend of mine and I would not disrespect our friendship by saying anything more than that. These are all personal preferences and opinions and we are all entitled to express them respectfully. I will respect yours and kindly ask you to respect mine. |

I like the direct approach. I just texted my gf "I need to get my freeeek on."
Sweeping her off her feet again!

Off the top of my head flirting:
I have never rehearsed or even thought of rehearsing to flirt with a beautiful woman. It just happens. We either feel each other's energy or we don't. I'm just not one to rehearse flirting. It flows or it doesn't.
So, go ahead and be yourself and take a chance. The world is at your fingertips and you might just get the girl or guy of your dreams. I realize some may want to rehearse and go over all their moves before hand and that is perfectly okay. Do what you like. Do what feels good and right. Believe me the person on the other end of the text will either reciprocate or not. It's not the end of the world if they don't respond the way you want. The point is to at least try. Lighten up and flirt a little. It may just be the best thing you've ever done. Let the flirting continue.. rehearsed or off the cuff...

I think my best flirt went like this...
*I know you took my keys, I don't know what kind of game you are playing, but I need my keys back... I can't afford to replace the keys to my apt and the building... I'm NOT even kidding!!!!* followed up with... *I found my keys... I'm the psycho not you... you want to go out again?* Worked like a charm.. *Cheesey Grin*

I'm a much better flirt "in the moment" than any other time, but text flirts are fun! I'm not sure if I have a favorite to share. Although I will say that comedy and flirting go really well together. You could send a text that says "Wow! You look really hot today!" which I think is really funny. But then they might think you're a stalker. Ummmm use your own humor, not mine. Please!
