RedPenguin Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 I tend to smile at girls who I find attractive. I didn't think they really noticed that much, because I never really seemed to get a reply back. Yet, I've had a few people tell me, they could tell that I was attracted to a certain girl because of the way that I was acting. Do I just run in to girls that are not interested in me or something? I mean, how do others that I'm not flirting with, tell I'm flirting, yet I don't get a response normally from the flirtee? Are all guys this obvious when they like a girl or am I just unique?

alexia denise Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 nah u are certainly not alone. The problem is the places in which choose to flirt like the mall , people will be shopping so thereforeeee there attention is else where people who are your friend know youur flirting cause u act differently it doesn't mean people outside know . Try to approach the person whom u like and build a conversation with them and see what happeans Link to comment
toshiba Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 You said you smile at girls that you find attractive and that you don't get a "response" back. What kind of response are they supposed to give back to you in response to a smile? Where are you meeting them at? In passing? At work? At school? Do they see you? Do they smile back? If they smile back, are you expecting them to approach you? If a guy smiles at me, I may or may not smile back, but then I'll just keep going on about my business, whether or not I find him attractive. In my opinion, if he's interested in me, he'll approach me. Link to comment
Entropy Smith Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 I do the totally relaxed face humble grim reaper look and never look their way no matter how attractive they are. You get this down red peguin and you'll become red hawk. Link to comment

JeckyllNHyde Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Most guys are same. They like a girl, or think she is hot in most cases and they will smile or look their way for a little longer then necesary. Just human nature I guess. Link to comment
Haven Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Most guys are really obvious to outside observers. Usually if you're flirting with a girl, she may think you're just being friendly. However, other people (especially other girls) are likely to notice that you're paying more attention to that girl and not to them, and will interpret this as attraction/interest to that girl.

Zuzu2 Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 I met a guy a while ago that I thought was flirting with me. I wasn't 100% sure if he was or just being nice, but I definitely was interested. But I sure as hell am not going to just look him up and call him up. I wish he would have asked me out.

RedPenguin Posted December 1, 2007 Author Share Posted December 1, 2007 Yeah, I know, I do say something now when I see a girl that I'm interested in. I just meant casual flirting, like looking at each other and smiling and stuff like that. I don't seem to get girls that flirt back for some reason. Then again I run in to a lot of girls that already have boyfriends. Link to comment

Brightest Dark Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Do you think a smile from a guy definitely means he's interested? I once had a guy smile at me as I was sat on a sofa not talking to anyone and he was a few feet away. He looked over and smiled. I smiled back. That was all. I didn't take it as him being interested in me though. But now I'm wondering if that meant he was. Do guys ONLY smile at girls they like? Or do guys smile to 'be friendly' too? Maybe the girls you've smiled at didn't realise you were actually attracted to them. Or do they not even smile back at you in a friendly manner? Link to comment
RedPenguin Posted December 2, 2007 Author Share Posted December 2, 2007 Some don't smile back at all, making it kinda more nerve racking for me. Link to comment
toshiba Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 So they don't smile back.....so you have two choices.... You either move on or you keep trying with them. And try not to take it personally. I know there have been times when I've been out and about and have been upset about something going on in my life and occasionally a guy might smile at me. Ok, I'll be honest with you, almost all of the time, I don't get smiled at by a guy I'd be interested in. But my point is, sometimes I don't smile back because I'm not even interested in guys at that moment. I'm too upset about other things. People DO have problems in their lives and aren't all in the flirting mode at all times. And then there are women who don't smile back because the last several guys who flirted with them turned out to be married or in a serious relationship and so these women don't want to bother to flirt anymore. And there are the women who don't smile back because they're in a serious relationship themselves. There are women who don't smile back because the guy is making them feel uncomfortable for some reason (he stares too much, he invades her space, etc...) There are women who don't smile back because when they smile back the guy never bothers to ask them out so they figure what's the point of smiling? It could be any of these reasons. In my opinion you're concentrating too much on it and you should be more natural. And if you do smile at a woman and she smiles back and want it to go somewhere, follow it up by asking her out.

stranded247 Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Sometimes when a guy smiles at me I am flattered but a little taken aback that by the time I have taken it all in I've forgotten to be polite and smile back at him. And then when I do smile I'm smiling at no one because he's already looking away out of embarrassment. Link to comment
