The easiest way is to ask if they're flirting with you. If they are, they'll say yes! If they're not, they'll say no!

@Ananke that is a dangerous game that i am not willing to play馃槀
Ananke26-30, F
@littlelia oh? But you're willing to just try to guess and put yourself and potentially another person through unnecessary stress when you come onto them when that's not what they wanted? And then you embarass yourself too?

Flirting, the romance game, it doesn't have to be this secret anxiety invoking dance between people. Communicate.

@Ananke well for one no. You just took what i said completely out of context a put words in my mouth which i do not appreciate at all.

I would NEVER ever make a move on someone unless i was 1000% sure they were also into me. Specifically because i don鈥檛 want to risk making them uncomfortable. And the fact that you assumed i would is honestly really weird and rude. That鈥檚 just not the kind of person I am.

@Ananke and the reason why i don鈥檛 ask people if they鈥檙e flirting with me is because someone might get offended at the question. Thats why i said that it is a dangerous game.
Ananke26-30, F
@littlelia If they are offended at the question then that is on them, not on you. You are just asking a question and trying to clarify to be polite.

Personally I have never been offended by someone asking if I am flirting. In fact no one ever asks me. I'd love this instead of people just assuming.
littlelia18-21, F
@Ananke yes but not everyone uses that kind of logic, regardless the post wasn鈥檛 meant to be taken seriously. I said it to make people laugh not so I could debate with people.
Ananke26-30, F
@littlelia I am not meaning to be rude. You said you would prefer not to ask if people are flirting. I then asked you if this meant you would then prefer to misinterpret and unintentionally create an uncomfortable situation for you both. As you said, clearly this is not what you want. So in that case, your choices are to a) not flirt at all and just give up on romance entirely or b) just ask people if they are flirting.

@littlelia Then that can be communicated as well, that you were being silly and making a joke, not asking for advice. You directly asked for help in your post. Work on communication girl. Peace.
littlelia18-21, F
@Ananke most people used common sense and realized it was a joke and I wasn鈥檛 actually asking for help it was more added for dramatic effect. You telling me to work on my communication is crazy, cause you came at me with hostile accusations earlier after I responded to your original comment. Practice what you preach. Peace.
Ananke26-30, F
@littlelia Ah. So I should have automatically understood your intentions with this post. Or perhaps this whole unpleasant situation could have been avoided if I had directly asked what your intentions were with the post. Interesting.

Ok. I'm being so mean. I'll stop 馃槀
littlelia18-21, F
@Ananke no its not even mean its just annoying to have to continuously explain yourself to someone over a joke and then have them throw around random accusations at you.
