i flirt with someone all the time...but i never intend to make it sound sexual... i tell that person ...i like looking my best for you...but sometimes when they make it sound sexual, i avoid it by saying something like we aren't married yet ...i don't wanna tell that person flat out ...what your saying is sinful...i don't wanna judge that person or sound like i judge them..after all that person is an adult...and knows what's right from wrong...have i sinned on my part?

I cannot believe how paranoid you people are over a book that makes no sense at all.
Since there is no sin, you have not sinned.

If you tell that to me, of course I will think you're on to me for something more than just friendship. Then if you say it is not what you really mean, then I will think you're just teasing. Don't call it a sin. Sin is something actually should not be used for little mistakes.
Just try to choose proper words if you only want to flatter someone or make fun out of little flirts.

What does flirting mean to you? To me, it means signaling your sexual intentions to a person of the opposite sex. It is a precursor to other instinctive behaviors that eventually lead to sex and pair-bonding. Women who "sport-flirt" imagine that what they are doing is innocent play. This is because women naively assume their own intentions are innocent and because they instinctively enjoy receiving extra attention from appreciative males. Men who suddenly realize a women is flirting with them are flattered by the attention and immediately begin considering potential sexual outcomes. All males interpret flirting as the beginning of sex-play. Very few virile men are able to resist the temptation of apparently easy sex, and none can read your mind. I imagine you enjoy how easy men are to manipulate.
Our modern civilization allows women the option of accepting or rejecting any man's sexual advances. She's even allowed to change her mind and is not required to provide an explanation. In our culture, women have total control over the sexual experience and that is exactly why it is fundamentally evil to offer a man the possibility of sex and then take it away for the sake of stroking your own ego. One day you may repeatedly tease a man beyond his self-control and you will become a rape victim. Of course, you won't go to jail, but he surely will. ...and he'll become a registered sex-offender for the rest of his life. I'm not sure if flirting is a sin and I know it's not a crime. However, I am very sure sport-flirting is deeply evil because you're deliberately sending false signals to someone who will pay dearly if you go too far. Bottom line: don't flirt with him if you're not going to sleep with him...

Flirting can be fun but you also don't want to lead someone on if you're not really interested in dating them. That would be sinful. If they say something in the flirting process that you find offensive or impure you can be honest and say something like, "I don't like it when you say _________. It seems ________ to me." Phrasing it that way would be talking to them as an adult to an adult and not from a parental voice or position. Flirting is a fun way to relate to other singles but it requires some tactfulness for the follower of Christ.

It's not a sin (because I don't believe in any such thing)...
However you shouldn't flirt with someone who you don't have the hots for. It's called being a tease, it pisses people off and ends up hurting people's feelings when they realize you were just leading them along.
By all means, flirt as much as you like but DON'T be a tease.

Forget about "sin" in the way you know it. There is simply right action and wrong action.
You can tell the difference because wrong action feels wrong. It is clear you already have the answer to your question and should probably change your behavior around this particular person.

I had an experience like that once. I think that you are just waiting for the right moment to tell this person how you feel. The chance will come and you will see that it's all okay. Don't feel bad, but don't let yourself be persuaded by the smooth words of those around you . . .

Is your flirting a soft form of social manipulation or do you express real interest in someone you hope to know better?

You're leading someone on and that's not right. I wouldn't call it sin but I'd say it was immature.

I believe that if you are dressing purposely and causing him to have lustful thoughts then you could be sinning...
Dress modestly, neatly, cleanly.. you will get honest feelings and conversations.
