Yesterday I had a conversation about limits of flirting. What is the individual perception of flirting and she told me :
"As long as you INVOLVE feelings, then you are FLIRTING."
I start smiling and said :
" My god, that means i've been flirting since I was in school. What I thought was pure sociallising turn out to be flirting. Haha "
She gives that 'digusted' look , I was so sure I could have buried my face into my little Nescafe cup. In her defence, she said she was thinking of something else. I won't know the truth even if she was telling it. Flirting is a skill. You just can't take a MAT JOE and put him in front of a gurl and ask him to talk. This is what he might come up with :
1. Lame pick -up lines
2. Sing a song before introducing himself
3. Show a magic trick to impress the opposite sex
4. Start talking and talking non-stop
5. Pee's in his pants
This is from my comment box from the previous entry:

- The very thing I need to stress is people don't stop other from flirting. They just flirt extra. How would you know my flirting cases tak jadi ? Do you go for flirting classes ? I'm sure your better than someone I know. After confessing, she said she was playing truth or dare. I wanted to fall and laugh but then being a nice person , I decided that if that person did not have the gut to stand by what they say or do, all you can do is pity them and think if they will ever get far in life. Everyone tells me I've got long more time to go and they try to make me 'happy' but then who know what's in store for me ? For all you know this post would never make it to screen if I drop dead on my keyboard. Nothing is certain in life and another reason is why wait when u can start early? Putting off things is something my mother told me NOT to do.
*Stupendous - realise how it almost rhymes with Stupid? When I came across the word, I was thinking extreme stupidity. Thanks to Dictionary.com, I'm improving myself. Hehe. In the comic strip Calvin and Hobbes, Calvin has a split personality known as Stupendous Man. (I think that's the complete name) . Now don't get your mind wondering , in my case Wonderboy and Stupendous Man are different. Way different. Calvin has a split personality. Mine is just a secret identity. See how big the difference is ? Huge. No comparison is possible.
" The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards. They are the ones that care. "

hahaha...trot is funny..wat eva! ^o)...now, let's discuss things like grown ups,...
i remember hearing from someone, a 24 yr old man saying, 'if u don't flirt, u will not be able to get to know a person',... may have to agree wid dat, flirting is part of socialising...but then it all depends on ur intentions and limits too, u must stop to think over, 'why is it dat u flirt wid only a certain category of ppl, n wen socialising wid other categories, it does not require flirting at all?...to ponder over...if flirting is part of socialising, do u actually flirt wid d same gender?'... hmmm...dis may take some time to digest, let's skip dis first..
now, speaking of this person who confessed n den said he/she was juz playing truth or dare...
hmmm, since u said 'she', i assume she's a girl and may i also assume she confessed to u.. rite?
so, she confessed, n den later she said she was juz playing d fool..
now, did u ever think over, why would she have done that?
-could it be your reaction towards her confession?
-could it be her own feelings after confessing?
-may be, she has never confessed to ne1 b4?
so, wat was ur reaction after she confessed?
-did u start avoiding her?
-did u reject her?
-did u say 'yes'?
-or did u juz laugh within urself thinking how stupid she could be?
why? may be she could hv thinking how stupid she was..
let's put ourselves in her shoes now...hmmm
wat do u think her feelings would have been like?
-would she have felt embarassed?
-would she have felt rejected?
-would she have juz been plain hurt?
-would she have been thinking that she was too young for all this?
-or was she even thinking if she actually made the right move confessing to u?
-or was she thinking that she never actually liked u but rushed into confessing?
many things could have been running in her mind, right?
hmmmm, so as we can see, she may have had a reason to take back d confession? right?
she could have even been drunk or too sleepy wen she confessed?
or she simply could have been touched by smthing sweet u did for her n juz confessed widout thinking...
or like u said, she could even be a plain loser who does not want to accept the fact
may be she's juz too shy n embarrased or feels she's not good enough for u?
then again, i take my hat off, she dared to tell u
then again, she's an idiot to take her words back...
neway, now..hmmm
let's put ourselves in ur shoes..
-how would u have felt about d whole thing?
speaking of all this like like business, or let's juz say love..
we cannot blame ne1 for loving ne1..
ne body has d rite to love ne1..
why? even u may b loving sm1 rite now?
can ne1 stop u?
the thing u should think about is, this girl who confessed to u, never actually asked u to like her back... did she?
may be she said she was playing truth or dare, thinking or knowing dat u might not like her bk, wanting to wash u off her mind, so she could move on....
think about this...
juz a simple question...
if dis girl actually still likes u, would u prefer her to stick to playing truth or dare, or would u want her to confess n tell u d truth... but mind u, she saying dat she likes u or loves, n she simply caring for u, does not mean she's trying... caring does not mean trying...
something to ponder over.. go ahead!
