Flirting is one of the great pleasures of being human! Focusing in on another person and throwing a little energy at them, causing sparks, it makes everyone's life richer and more connected... more fun. Of course, it's one thing to flirt and another to embarrass people with o.t.t. sexuality, or to mislead people by making promises you won't keep. Flirting is magical in that it never crosses any lines. It just flirts with crossing them.
Because it's a real ego boost...When I get a positive response, it lets me know that people still find me attractive and desirable...and that I've still "got what it takes".
I flirt because it shows off my fun side. It shows the other person a little more of who I am. Flirting does not have to be a bad thing. You can flirt with someone in a friendly way, without any intentions.
I feel like in this day and age, flirting is in one's social nature. I do it because it shows a sense of confidence, can express interest in an individual and just simply because it is fun.
Flirting with the opposite sex creates a feel good feeling to me. If you flirt with somebody and I know they are flirting back then it makes me feel good about myself. It will rid me of my bad mood if I am in one. It also reminds me that I should have better self confidence about myself.
Because I am extremely playful and flirtatious in my communications with other in general. I find it to be something fun and entertaining because if people are game to flirt back it can offer some serious entertainment and ego boosting.
Flirting is such fun. It's a great way to meet and to get to know new and old people. Its sorta like a high in its own right. What I mean is that it can make you feel really great but sadly that feeling doesnt last forever.
I don't always mean to, and sometimes a friend or one of my sisters will pull me aside and tell me that I'm flirting. I get excited easily so sometimes it comes off the wrong way, especially when I have no genuine interest in the guy.
I enjoy flirting. It makes conversation enjoyable and it is also nice to make other people happy. It's a good ego boost to others when you flirt with them so I do not see anything bad with making other people feel good about themselves.
I usually only flirt when someone has initiated flirting first. I do it back because it is fun to watch people be interested in you and attracted to you.

fun way to start a conversation
To see if they respond with the same gestures. If so then they like me.
It feels good when you flirt and somebody is enjoying it. Good morale boost.
If I think a guy is cute, I do it to see if he starts flirting back which obviously means he's showing interest in me. Sometimes it's just fun.
