Well, “the move” is very subjective in timing and approach. When it seems that the party you’re flirting with is going to be responsive, try a little test flirt. Not anything too overt, especially if it’s not someone that you know. You don’t want to compliment someone you just met on their long beautiful hair, then jump right into something like “I’d love to see how it looks spread across my pillow.” _bzzzzz_ Thanks for playing! Might work on some, but most, uh-uh. So try something a little more subtly, a little funnier (and, of course, right now I can’t think of anything that will work. Maybe one of the other professors…?) Try to be as natural as possible, and let your interest show in your manner, tone and inflection. Let your intuition guide you. If you feel that the other party is interested as well, just turn the charm on a little more.

Remember, since flirting is more an art than a science, what might be considered flirting to you may not be to the person that you’re talking to. As a general rule, sexual inuendo is pretty much a universal flirt, but it won’t work on everyone. “Regular” conversation can be a flirt, but it’s much harder to tell what is and what isn’t because of different people’s perceptions. Your flirt may not work with everyone. But that certainly doesn’t mean give up. Go out there and try again. As with everything, practice makes you better. It’s easier to read the signs and win that guy/girl/whateveryourpleasure over every time!

Hey, I’m good, but I’m not _that_ good. There are still a few who have yet to succumb to my charm.

(Of course, you know all about my charm, don’t you?)

That would be your warm, moist, shaven charm, I presume?

Yes. This can be dangerous for amateurs. I, on the other hand, am a licensed flirt.

No, that’s _ChiefScott_ flirting with **TP**. He seems to run by slightly different rules than every other man I know.

**You** , on the other hand, have been doing just fine. Now before you bolt, let’s get back to that discussion on positions we were having in my office…

**Chief** , where’s that license issued? Are you sure it’s good here? I think I need to inspect it a little further.

**Falcon** - Good point! Of course, results may vary, but…

Results may vary, but as long as they “come” at least 9, 10 times a session, who cares?

You think you **can** manage 9 or 10 times a session? I’ll believe it when I see it.

I left fairly soon after you did! Um…don’t ask when I went to SLEEP, though. 😉

And besides, Chiefy only has eyes for you, so… 😃

Oh, I’ve got more that eyes for the both of you. _A lot_ more than just eyes!

Oh, I believe _I’ll_ feel 9 or 10… that’s a low number for me. I just don’t believe that _you_ can manage 9 or 10. When I make you hit number 9, I’ll be sufficently impressed. As I said earlier, I’m good, but I’m not _that_ good.

Then again, how long are you defining a session? That might change my mind, too.

::Tygr’s confidence is somewhat restored by the instructor’s kind words. He’s still slightly shaken, though.  
He wills himself to focus completely on her gentle ministrations.::

Where were we? I seem to have lost my place…

Whoop, hold that. (Nevermind, you already are.)

You seem to have found my place. My place is glad you did…

Right. Positions. Okay, I put my hand _there_. And then…

My foot? Put my foot over there?  
.  
.  
.  
Oh, my OTHER foot? Why in the world…

oh.

I, ah (aHHH!)… I seem to be getting the …idea. I’m beginning to understand how much I don’t know. For heaven’s sake, PLEASE continue with your fascinating lessons.
