What He Says When He Flirts With You, According To His Zodiac Sign
Aww, he says the sweetest things!
I don't know about you but I can be completely unaware when someone is flirting with me. I don't naturally assume that someone is flirting with me, so most of the time a friend will have to point it out to me later.
However, as a Libra I'm a pretty natural flirter, and I sometimes can be quite unintentionally charming. Yes, it's a burden I must bear.
We all have our own styles of flirting, which includes never flirting, and just like any kind of language, it can be difficult to decipher each person's intention.
When you're in grade school and most of the boys are obnoxious, you may not get that Mark throwing the volleyball right at your head was his way of saying he liked you, or that when your coworker brings everybody treats from that great Cuban bakery but always remembers that you like Guava strudel, that's his way of warming up to ask you out.
There are those who flirt by using compliments and flowery words, while others can be direct and straightforward with their flirting. There's no definitive way to flirt.
Not only is flirting specific to the person and their style, but it can also be used for different purposes. People flirt for regular attention, to get someone to have sex with them, to manipulate people, and sometimes because that's just what they do.
Flirting can get you into trouble if your intentions are misunderstood. No one likes it when their partner flirts excessively with someone in the service industry, especially if it's a flight attendant or cocktail server.
If you're flirtatiously challenged, astrology can help you out. You don't want to misunderstand when a Taurus or a Sagittarius is totally coming on to you. So, here's what he says when he's flirting with you, according to his zodiac sign.
