Misleading.

In fair Verona.

Do you think you might intentionally mislead people in here with your intentions?

How do you interact without giving the wrong impression?

My question is about ownership of ‘I’m sorry, you misread my flirting’.

Some people feel misled by a simple thank you to a compliment.

I don't really flirt too much so can't see that happening.

Someone would have to be rather overtly flirting for me to take it seriously - it's a website full of people with multiple offers.

I'm pretty chill about it all.

I don't think anyone is going to admit intentionally misleading people.

Who is going to admit that?

Apparently I flirt too much with everyone in the forum threads. I see the threads, especially the games as lighthearted fun that are not to be taken seriously.

If I was intentionally flirting with someone it would be in private and you’d know about it.

Or maybe I’m doing this wrong 🤷🏻‍♀️

Always.


"How do you interact without giving the wrong impression?"

I maintain the subterfuge without compunction.


"My question is about ownership of ‘I’m sorry, you misread my flirting’."

I'm never sorry about my flirting. I didn't come here to play Tiddlywinks.

Thats how I do it too, forums are a bit of fun to pass the time, real flirting goes on in private.

Youre doing it just right. In the nebula of public discussions nothing should be read into too much. Perhaps those who say you flirt too much dont flirt enough.

It's a minefield. With some people flirting doesn't work, and you actually have to spell it out, so with those there's no possibility of misunderstanding.

But generally I prefer the approach of just not flirting with anyone these days.

The only misleading I do is intentional and blatant on my profile. Plus it's pretty obvious I am not a woman. I don't use filters on pics except mono Monday and I don't lead anyone down the garden path to expect anything. If I fab I like, if I want to chat I will message, forum is for fun but useful to see profiles I may not directly search for or otherwise interact with.

If someone flirts with me I don't have a problem with that...they may or may not be interested. I have flirted with people and I wouldn't have a clue if I'd want to take it further unless I met them. And I flirt with people who flirt with me even if I'm unlikely to meet them. I don't see how flirting could be taken as anything more than it is. I have no expectations from it. And if someone assumes otherwise I would never make misleading arrangements that would encourage that.

Can't see how I could mislead anyone because I don't flirt at all and especially not with people I've never met.

There's nothing really to misinterpret but a complete stranger flirting with me online would never be reciprocated so they might be disappointed.

No I wouldn't intentionally lead someone on.

I don't take flirting on here to be particularly meaningful unless it's backed up with something said explicitly. Especially, before meeting socially.

That apology isn't worth the paper it's not written on. 😂. If I apologise it would be because I am acknowledging that I appreciate my part in the miscommunication. Not on the other person's behalf for misunderstanding me.

Hmmm… all about perception, nobody knows intent but the person.

I think harmless flirting is simply that, surely grown adults can differentiate between flirting and serious intention to persue?

I think it's more a case of people reading too much into the playful flirting on the forums.

If someone isn't flirting with you in your DMs, don't start planning the wedding just yet

I don't think I know how to flirt when I actually like someone, it's easier when it's just for fun 🤣

I think most people - including myself - are trepidatious when it comes to flirting. Yes we can be cheeky and lighthearted but I don't think most of us are intentionally misleading people.

I suspect most people are testing the water to see if the other person who is being flirted with is receptive to those incoming 'flirts', a ruffling of plumage so to speak. Perhaps they like them but are too coy or reserved to do anything other than engage in tentative flirts. Maybe it's the lack of mutual flirtatious response or the possibility they will reject their coquettish behaviour.

I think flirting is a litmus test to evaluate if the other person is also interested, or not. The forums are awash with flirting. It's the perfect place for it because it's benign and without malice.

It's something I've always tended to keep in mind, especially when flirting in the forums. I know some people do it in a playful way, but it's not something I tend to do in case they take it the wrong way that I would be interested in something more and if they did, I'd feel pretty bad about it 🙈
