The Flirt Academy: Summer Session

oh yeah!

I get that “aaw shucks” thing too…
and the:

guy: “hey, how you doing?”

me: “who me?”

guy: “yes, you…how are you?”

me: “um, i’m okay…” (whilst backing away)

AND!

my crush: “you looked really nice last night”

me: “oh wow…thanks…really?” (while furiously blushing like an idiot)

mc: “yeah, you looked really cute”

me: “oh my god!” (giggling profusely)

and, for the record…i’m 22, so it’s not like i’m a blushing schoolgirl! (or maybe I am, actually!)

Hey, Tapioca Dextrin, for all comments concerning shaving, waxing, plucking, dipillatorating (is that a word?) please go here http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=78287
I can’t read that thread anymore without crossing my legs.

But seriously. I think katiekilldare could help you with your problem…

Please report to my office for your private lessons.

True Pisces

We’re going to need a lot of help with Crunchy. Why do I have the feeling he’s going to spending a lot of time in the corner? Alone? Talking about the glories of his testicles?
[sub]Like I said before, the sig line of his proves I have ESP. I say it, he posts about 'em[/sub]

How come nobody has come to Butt-Head yet? I’m feeling rather irked about this development.

How could I especially help dear Tapioca Dextrin with his/her leg-shaving? Dare I ask what makes me good for this?

And TP, are you passing me off on Ty to serve as tutor to HIM or for him to tutor ME?

All you need is a razor and some cream. And don’t woory, in this G rated thread, you only need to get as far as mid thigh

<Homer>
Mid Thigh mmmmmmmmm…
</Homer>

I was out to lunch with some coworkers. I needed the bathroom. We were in a dinky restaurant, so there was no bathroom inside. So I walked out side and wandered around a neighbourhood that I was not familiar with.

Will looking for the bathroom a pretty woman approached me to ask for directions. She was holding a map so I pointed her in the right direction. When I was walking back to the restaurant I realised that she had been flirting with me. I also noticed that she was still lost. So I went with her and found the place she was looking for.

She gave me her phone number (50% of it was me, 50% of it was help from you guys). But my question is …… Now what do I do? Please help!

::Strolling in unnoticed. Sits down in the back row, apart from others. Taking out a pad of paper and a pencil. Puts hair in a ponytail.::

What can I say? I want to learn!

::Drops pencil, watching it roll…::

Hej!
We clueless non-flirters may want to take a look at this: the “I like my women” thread. Somehow it feels relevant.

My own problems, TruePisces? I don’t see the signals coming, if they in fact are coming, until long after they’ve gone… :frowning:

::wishes he could start a conversation easily with the others::

Oh, a natural flirt, sure. I was just referencing what, ah, ELSE about you might be natural [sub](blonde, brunteet, redhead…)[/sub], and implying how that might be verified.

Okay, students? What I have just performed is a flirt that is TOO damn oblique. What we are attempting to instill here is a sense of balance, a way to locate the ideal middle-ground between what I just did and “Can I touch yer boobies?”. The lesson is, if the object of your flirt has a big “whooshhh” expression on his/her face, you’re being a tad too subtle.

[sub]BTW, Instructor Pisces? My saying that to Miss Mermaid was actually a test to see if she was one of those female types I referrenced in my first post. With your permission, I’ll offer to take any female students who appear to be that, ah, zealous and provide them with personal instruction.[/sub]

:: returns his attention to Miss killdare ::

Now then… It appears TP has viewed your work in the field and has a high opinion of it. I’ve already shown that I can still make the occasional mis-step, so perhaps we might hone our skills mutually. You know, I’ll hone yours if you hone mine. :wink:

I forgot my weaknesses. Hmmm…I don’t know. Maybe I don’t pick up on signals that men throw out. Maybe there are no signals. I usually am an observant person, but where flirting is concerned I have no clue. Oh, and then if someone talks to me I have a way of making the conversation turn useful. “Oh, yeah, that lecture made me bored. What did you think of blah, blah, blah.” I am way too serious. And I don’t talk much. Making conversation doesn’t come natural. But when I get to know someone I can be very laid back. To get to the point, I need major help!

It looks like I have killed another one. Not a good start, huh?:frowning:

Ahaaa! I see. A “natural”. I get it.
::Looking around to be sure no one else saw the “whoosh” expression on her face just moments earlier::

Yeah, TP and I spent a lovely evening entertaining a couple of male dopers a few months ago. Frankly, I thought I needed work. But if True Pisces thinks I’m not embarrassing myself, then perhaps I’m better than I thought I was.

So, Tygr, what’s this about you being the sexiest man on the planet? Cite please.

Well, I’m completely inexperienced so any rudimentary pointers would be appreciated :wink:

Oh, and I haven’t officially said Hi yet so… Hi.

Ok, Miss Cleo. You mention this every other thread I see you in. Time to set the record straight.

You said that line as a joke during a conversation where I was joking about starting a goofy thread about my testicles. It is no great leap of logic then (or mystical powers) that I would actually start a goofy thread about my testicles.

BTW - these posts you’re making talking about how brilliant your powers of ESP are will look pretty silly when I change my sig line. :stuck_out_tongue:

Now then. Anyone else need tutoring? For some reason, TP and the Psychic Friend over there think I’m here as a student. I am here as a guest instructor and offer my services. :smiley:

Crunchy’s offering his services?
Good lord, help us all :slight_smile:

You know you want some.

::drops pants and starts spinning his penis like a propellor::

You know, if I get enough speed going, you can hear a whistling sound…

DL, let me assure you you have ** NOT** killed this thread. The Professor asked me to post that she is feeling poorly tonight, and may not be around. Apparently something she caught from an apple she was given. I won’t name names, but it ALSO gave her a WART…

That’s the wind thru your ears, dude…:smiley:

Sure lurker, take my comeback :slight_smile:

Maybe lurker’s psychic and just wanted to use the line before you did.
