Is it true? Guys sometimes don't get it when girls get flirty?

Question

I'm a girl with crushes. And since I'm a girl, it's really awkward for me to say that I like that guy. So what is the best way to get the guy's attention? I've always been myself.

I've tried throwing hints though but I don't know if they got it. So, do guys sometimes don't get it when girls get flirty?

Answer 1

What you have to remember is there are a lot of blokes out there who are quite shy and put on a bit of a front at times (me included) It may be that your advances and flirty behaviours has got them scared in the past.

I think there is a definite cross in communications between Men and Women. We need to try to get on the same wavelength before we start then there might be half a chance.

For me personally you just need to be honest and come up and tell me or write it in a letter if you can. I've always been much better at writing my feelings down than actually saying them. That could well be the answer.

Girls getting flirty can sometime be scary for blokes especially if they are a bit shy. They could run away and hide.

I wish you luck

Hey.. Girls HATE IT when guys play games. These are all games (at least the part I read), so no, this is not true. Some things that you said are true, but they are pretty stereotypical. Girls want guys who are honest, not playing games. If in high school or younger, these games go on and on. The stuff you wrote about guys has more accuracies. Good luck with the answers you will get from this question. You'll have 300 different opinions because nothing is a fact because it cannot relate to every person on the planet. Have fun.

Answer 3

Yes, what you consider as throwing hints he may just see as you being you or acting silly. The best way to flirt with a guy is to use something I all direct examples. It goes something like this.
" Hey, Craig. You know I was thinking the other day if you asked me out what would I say. So I went through the list of pros and cons and decided yes I would. "
You see it gives him an example with an answer to a question that maybe in his mind. From there I would say leave it up to him. If he doesn't act it's probably because he is not interested or got someone else in mind.

Good Luck

You can get guys attention without throwing yourself all over them. Try to have a decent conversation with that man. Some men looks for intelligence believe it or not. Not just the buttie!!!! I feel if all a man looks at is sleepin with me, that is a flag that he is not worth being with. I feel like he would be a STD spreadin from woman to woman. Honey take your time in this cruel world b/c half of the time, you don't know if men are straight or not. Talk enough to get to know a person and then move on to other things. Good luck and be safe.

Answer 5

It is true that sometimes it does indeed go right over their heads, and you'd have to perhaps saunter past them naked with a placard saying 'I'd like to roger you something chronic' for them to even contemplate the notion you find them attractive ... If you really like someone, and they're really not picking up on the lingering glances and the like, just take a deep breath and ask if they want to go out for a drink some time ... or you could always go in for the lunge, and knock him off his feet ... there's nothing like kissing a man when he's least expecting it!

Good luck, my lovely!

Answer 6

I think so because some guys take it as just being nice b/c I witness girls flirting with my boyfriend all the time and he is so nice that he just thinks that they are being nice. But I don't know about that saying but I suggest you to do something really obvious like making a comment. Something that would give him no choice but to get the hint that you like him.

Answer 7

Why not try the direct approach? Just tell the guy that maybe it would be nice to get together some time for a movie or something. Lots of guys are scared to ask girls out, because they are afraid of being rejected. They think that maybe you would never go out with them, so they never ask.

Answer 8

Sorry, guys usually don't get the hints.
Too many times, a girl will flirt. Then, when a guy make his feelings known, she freaks out because to her it was just a flirt and doesn't talk to him again.
So, as a result, guys don't say anything until ALL doubt is removed.
Actually, you can run up and kiss a guy and he will still ask "What was that for?"

Answer 9

I have been a guy for my whole life, and most of the time I didn't get it. Women literally had to say, "lets go to bed" before I would even recognize their interest.

I think modern males have too much political correctness, and too much fear of sexual harassment potential, so we get gun shy.

I have approached women who weren't interested and they said a polite no, and we moved on with life - no big deal...

But I have also seen women, who are not interested, instead of saying no, that have to put the guy down in a very public, embarassing and overdone way...Like WHO ARE YOU to think I would have any interest in YOU!!!!!...or some such nonsence.

The lack of respect from women, and this reaction makes many men reluctant to approach women, so it is a society thing...

Plus- combine our constant obsession with Beer, Pizza, Sports and Porn...so it is hard to get our attention, unless you have a DVD of yourself naked...

Just be upfront, and in a private moment, tell him your feelings.

Answer 10

Yes it is true. Keep it simple, be your self and the guy will be interested. Flatter his ego, it eases any tension and it will relax the both of you.
Throwing hints is ok, but you need to be more clearer.
I think some guys may not get it, as i have been guilty of being ignorant. It could be nerves!
