I was recently at a friend’s summer BBQ and I met a new woman. We chit chatted for awhile and then I asked if she was the girlfriend of the man she walked in with. Her answer was, “Yes? I think so?

It’s an awful spot that I think anyone who’s dated a bunch will recognize. Read more
The key to flirting is to have an inquisitive mind. Having an inquisitive mind is having a flirtatious mind.
Flirting is really all about curiosity.
It's amazing that how many people don't know how to flirt, or choose not to.
