The flirting thread.

[Park]

In context with this thread (http://forums.intpcentral.com/showthread.php?t=15513), I thought it would be a good idea to start up a flirting thread where all, more or less socially handicapped INTPs, can practice their flirting skills safely in each others company. Without running the risk of being hurt or ridiculed by potential objects of desire IRL. It would be nice if our relatively better socially skilled E and F members would participate and perhaps evaluate our attempts to appear attractive to the opposite sex (or own, depending on our personal preferences) as we go along.

We have allready received excellent input from what seems to be an experienced performer in the art of flirting:

:joft:

i have deduced the (evolutionarily inspired) purpose of the activity known as flirting, and i think it may prove helpful in your situation. i'll leave the specifics of learning exactly what flirting is and how to do it up to you

the point is, you drop gestures/comments/actions which can be interpreted as romantic/sexual interest, but are, to a degree, ambiguous. this allows you to deny that any such thing was intended in case the interest isn't mutual. this allows you to not lose face (maybe even in front of other potential mates) if your advances are rejected, because, oh! you thought they were advances! oh i'm sorry, i didn't meant it that way, but now i see how that must have sounded! ho ho

I understand why me being the first poster, may create a problem for the next poster if he/she don't find me the least bit attractive. However, someone has to post after me to get this thread going so here is a random image from the sexiest women thread (http://forums.intpcentral.com/showthread.php?t=7368)which you can project on to me.

Now flirt!!!

[Jasz]

hi park, i was thinking about you the other day

[Park]

hi park, i was thinking about you the other day

Turning my head smiling:

"What were you thinking?".

[bergenski]

Turning my head smiling:

"What were you thinking?".
Ah, nothing...nothing.

*runs away*

[Park]

Ah, nothing...nothing.

*runs away*

I'm not an E or F but sofar, this thread isn't really going too well......can we try again?

[Park]

Bergenski, I read your essay in the atelier and thought it was very interesting.

[bergenski]

I'm not an E or F but sofar, this thread isn't really going too well......can we try again?
Oh, Park. *giggles, blushes*

[Park]

Oh, Park. *giggles, blushes*

Yes Bergenski, what's on your mind?

[bergenski]

Yes Bergenski, what's on your mind?
Maybe a book, some video games, probably a hot pocket, and then bed.

[Hustler]

Yes Bergenski, what's on your mind?

I heard he likes Danish girls.

[Park]

Maybe a book, some video games, probably a hot pocket, and then bed.

....still, not an E or F but even with my limited developed social skills - that would probably be coming on a bit too strong....


Hustler Quote: I heard he likes Danish girls.

Now if he hadn't mentioned the hot pocket/bed, that would have been a nice piece of gossip from a friend. You would take the temperature for him and return to him with my reaction. Which is:

Smiling again:
"Does he really, Americans have allways fashinated me".

[NoahFence]

I heard he likes Danish girls.

Nono, he just likes Danishes.

And let me just add that I've been mightily aware of the ambiguous nature of flirtation that was mentioned for many years, but that doesn't help me implement such a policy. Often during my youth, I would have the best success when I didn't even realize I was engaged in flirtation. If I actively tried it, I got nowhere, oft with a handprint on my face.

My only advice to a guy who is in a similar situation to me: Get slapped. It's not that bad, and you'll find someone sooner or later who will smile instead.

[bergenski]

You can just tell me yourself...we're on the Internet.

Was that supposed to be a come on? This is a flirting thread, instead of analyzing your past failed experiences with flirting, here's an actual chance of developing your skills with out ending up with a handprint on your face.

[Park]

Americans have allways fashinated me where about in the US did you say you came from?

[Hustler]

He developed his skills and ended up with a wife. An "SJ" wife who posts on an INTP messageboard, no less. All things considered, it's a little disconcerting.

[bergenski]

Nono, he just likes Danishes.

Baked in the shape of a girl.

[NoahFence]

Ya, sorry...got to stay on the sidelines for this one, but I can at least offer overbearing and useless advice.

[bergenski]

Americans have allways fashinated me where about in the US did you say you came from?
Uh, Manchester. You have a great chest.

[Park]

He developed his skills and ended up with a wife. An "SJ" wife who posts on an INTP messageboard, no less. All things considered, it's a little disconcerting.

I understand, now can we get back to flirting.....

Hustler, I've been meaning to ask you, why did you choose a knight as your avatar?

[Hustler]

Hustler, I've been meaning to ask you, why did you choose a knight as your avatar?

Maybe you can use your powerful N and figure my avatar out.

[Park]

Uh, Manchester.

Ohh, the US is sooooo big where about geographically is that?

[Hustler]

Where is Eileen the dead-sexy INFJ? I would like to do some flirting.

[Ivy]

Ya, sorry...got to stay on the sidelines for this one, but I can at least offer overbearing and useless advice.
I see what you did there. Very coy, pretending you're not even in the game. How did you get to be so skillful? That must have taken years of practice. (said with a lilting purr)

[Hustler]

I see what you did there. Very coy, pretending you're not even in the game. How did you get to be so skillful? That must have taken years of practice. (said with a lilting purr)

You two get a room.

[Ivy]

Where is Eileen the dead-sexy INFJ? I would like to do some flirting.

Another skillful tack-- feigning disinterest in the current participants. I'm so impressed. That is just brilliant.

[bergenski]

Ohh, the US is sooooo big where about geographically is that?
My real home is right next to your heart.

[Hustler]

Another skillful tack-- feigning disinterest in the current participants. I'm so impressed. That is just brilliant.

Do not make light of my desire to relentlessly hit on Eileen by putting it in that sort of context. I mean, don't get me wrong, I think it's a big plus that you consider me brilliant, but there is a time and place for pointing out my genius, and now is not the time, because the aforementioned party isn't even around to see you doing so.

Try to be a team player.

[Park]

Maybe you can use your powerful N and figure my avatar out.

Flirting is just taking the temperature to find out where two people stand. I'll give a shot at analyzing you apart sometime later.

[Ivy]

That's a really neat metaphor, Park. You have a real gift for that sort of thing.

[Park]

My real home is right next to your heart.

Perhaps a bit to cheesy.....I dunno?

[Park]

That's a really neat metaphor, Park. You have a real gift for that sort of thing.

While thank you so much Ivy, that's what makes you so special, you notish the little things in life.

[bergenski]

Perhaps a bit to cheesy.....I dunno?
You're being a bit "S"...or else I am. Do you really think I am going to practice flirting with you? Strippers are way easy.

[NoahFence]

While thank you so much Ivy, that's what makes you so special, you notish the little things in life.

Which of course is how we wound up together.

:huh: Wait did I say that out loud...

[meshou]

From middle school on, I kept befriending (sometimes very) attractive young men who weren't at all my type, and then finding out they thought I had a crush on them because I was a "major flirt." No, I was just myself (prone to being weird and not shying away from suggestion if it's interesting or fun) and liked them and found them and wasn't intimidated at all.

When I actually like someone, here is my natural response: o_o

So now I just act like I'm trying to befriend them, and it works. Hooray!!!

[bergenski]

Flirting is just taking the temperature to find out where two people stand. I'll give a shot at analyzing you apart sometime later.
Avatar talk is great Internet flirting. The girl in yours is so adorable.

[Ivy]

Which of course is how we wound up together.

:huh: Wait did I say that out loud...

Self-effacement-- another good tactic. It truly is what won my heart. I will settle for no less than the best, when it comes to humility.

[Park]

You're being a bit "S"...or else I am. Do you really think I am going to practice flirting with you? Strippers are way easy.

Argh.......no wonder INTPs seem to get laid so rarely. Try again.....

[meshou]

You're being a bit "S"...or else I am. Do you really think I am going to practice flirting with you? Strippers are way easy.That's because you wave money in their face. If they're anything like waitresses, they actually hate you.

:D

[file cabinet]

So now I just act like I'm trying to befriend them, and it works. Hooray!!!

it is so much easier for females..

[Park]

Avatar talk is great Internet flirting. The girl in yours is so adorable.

Thank you so much, I havn't told this to *anyone else* but it is actually a picture of myself when I was a child.

[Hustler]

So, Park. What are you wearing?

[Park]

So, Park. What are you wearing?

Which kind of womens fashion do you prefer?

[Ivy]

So, Park. What are you wearing?

Speaking of avatars, I've always thought yours were well-chosen. Especially this one. Now that you're a mod, and we're all your unwitting pawns, and you can weave your way unfettered across the board in an L-shaped fashion.

[Hustler]

Which kind of womens fashion do you prefer?
Those tight shirts that say "Hustler" in glitter writing on the chest.

It says more than that, but it's good to see you've given it some thought. You must know all the tricks to making an INTP feel special.

[Park]

Those tight shirts that say "Hustler" in glitter writing on the chest.

Funny you should mention that because that is exactly the kind of shirt I'm wearing. Do you believe in destiny?

[NoahFence]

Yes...yes she does.

[Hustler]

I believed in destiny ever since I first met you.

[Park]

I believed in destiny ever since I first met you.

Looking down *blushing*.

So what do you do when you don't sweet talk women on INTP boards?

[bergenski]

[Ivy]

:offtopic: Flirt or get out of my thread!!!

I really admire how assertive you are. Confidence is so attractive.

[NoahFence]

*pictures Park in Denmark wearing Hustler shirt. Chuckles*

It would be hard to notice, because it would say "ENERGIEK IEMAND"

(This post assumes that women love it when guys speak foreign languages, particularly if that foreign language is their primary)

[Hustler]

So what do you do when you don't sweet talk women on INTP boards?

Honestly, Park, and you have to believe it's not like me to be so revealing, but before I signed on and started posting, I was driving home thinking about how great you are. And wondering what you were wearing, of course.

[Park]

I really admire how assertive you are. Confidence is so attractive.

I find women who can bake extremely attractive as well. I've allways admired women who were good at house work.

[Park]

Honestly, Park, and you have to believe it's not like me to be so revealing, but before I signed on and started posting, I was driving home thinking about how great you are. And wondering what you were wearing, of course.

OK - from now on I'm gonna assume that every post in this thread is a come on *so I'll respond as if it was*.

ENERGIEK IEMAND what does that meen? I so much like the sound of that.

[Park]

ALERT!!! DON'T AGREE!!!!

Last warning FLIRT or get out of my thread :laser:

[bergenski]

And wondering what you were wearing, of course.
I would have thought you would have assumed she had the Hustler shirt on.

[NoahFence]

Well my Dutch is not stellar but I'm pretty sure it means "One who Hustles in a manner most seedy".

But I'm sure most non-Dutch officionados would think it meant "Most Beautiful Girl On The Planet."

(Oh shit...I'm not supposed to be flirting damnit!)

[Park]

ARGH you guys are hopeless.

[Ivy]

I would have thought you would have assumed she had the Hustler shirt on.

You're not too bright, are you? I like that in a man.

[Park]

You're not too bright, are you? I like that in a man.

Do you like women as well?

[NoahFence]

You're not too bright, are you? I like that in a man.

:sadbanana:

[Hustler]

ARGH you guys are hopeless.
Hopelessly falling for you, Park.

[bergenski]

I think kudos must go to Hustler for getting Park's knickers in a bunch.

[Ivy]

Do you like women as well?

I like everyone. But I don't like to cook, so I'm afraid it may never work out between us. :cry:

[Park]

Hopelessly falling for you, Park.

Well as I said.....I'm not really doing anything this evening......I'll probably just hang around at home being bored and all alone...........

[Ivy]

:sadbanana:

Let's see if we can turn that :sadbanana: into a :banana:

[Hustler]

Let's see if we can turn that :sadbanana: into a :banana:

I'll just bet you know how.

[Park]

I like everyone. But I don't like to cook, so I'm afraid it may never work out between us. :cry:

:sadbanana: but but........it was supposed to be an excercise in flirting online so INTPs with limited social skills wouldn't get hurt.....now, I feel so empty inside.....

[Park]

I think kudos must go to Hustler for getting Park's knickers in a bunch.

I've got two pair of knickers.......

[Park]

Where is Imperiator?

[Ivy]

Where is Imperiator?

Off hugging co-eds, I assume.

[bergenski]

I've got two pair of knickers.......
The second pair can be for tonight.

[booyalab]

you guys aren't flirting, you're just small talking

[Park]

Off hugging co-eds, I assume.

Oh yes, I saw the thread below. Again Ivy, your ability to spot the little things in life is amazing.......

(just taking the temps again, in case you were merely playing hard to get the first time)

[Park]

The second pair can be for tonight.

What do you have in mind?

[Park]

you guys aren't flirting, you're just small talking

Some of us are actually trying to flirt but when people keep interrupting the thread with the Ti and analyze things into pieces, it is rather difficult to focus.

[Hustler]

Well as I said.....I'm not really doing anything this evening......I'll probably just hang around at home being bored and all alone...........

I won't be bored and alone this evening, for despite the vast, cold sea which divides us, I will have you all to myself in my dreams, Park. Such sweet bliss that my heart tugs at my weary mind, compelling it to drift into that enchanted realm to join you.

[bergenski]

you guys aren't flirting, you're just small talking
I really like whips.

[Tayshaun]

:offtopic: Flirt or get out of my thread!!!

With you Park, different alternatives

To begin conversation/catch attention
1) Hej, jag har studerat i Sverige, f?rst?r du svenska? (hoped answer: "ja, en lite",... and then where did you study? etc.)

Then:
2)Denmark lives up to its reputation of having the funnest Scandinavians. I would love to spend time with you, your enthusiasm is contagious. There's a salsa evening at Andersen's tonight, would you like to come?

3)I've heard that a person speaking Danish is like an angry Swede. (win or lose)

4)Oh drat, my sweater is inside out. Oops, it's my sister's.

[bergenski]

would you like to come?

Too much.

[Lee]

I'm just going to recycle my favourite INTP chat up line:

INTP - 'Hi, I couldn't help but notice you from across the room... and I just had to ask, do you know what one plus one equals?'
Victim - 'erm... two'
INTP - 'No, it equals less than three'

This chat up line works best over Instant Messenger, the INTPs natural flirting ground, where you can write:

INTP - I just had to ask you, what is 1 + 1?
Victim - erm... 2
INTP - No, 1 + 1 = <3

[Deckard]

INTP - I just had to ask you, what is 1 + 1?
Victim - erm... 2
INTP - No, 1 + 1 = <3

[Hustler]

Hey, Rajah. Come here often?

[Ivy]

*playfully winks at EnglshIvy across the room*

Hey, sailor. Come here often? What's your sign? Ha ha, aren't those old pickup lines so out of date? People like us, young and hip, would never use them except ironically. Or not-- I'm leaving it ambiguous like joft said.

Ahoy lass! I come as often as the wind takes me here, and my sign be the jolly roger. And if i'm not mistaken ye looks like ye could use a jolly rogering yerself! Aha! Arrr! Grog me, barkeep!

(how was that??)

See, and then the only way to respond to "Come here often?" is to say something like "I can't help myself when I'm around you," somewhat subtly twisting the original meaning of "come." But that's kind of tacky.

[Hustler]

That's embarrassing.

For me, her or both of us?

[Carebear]

It would be hard to notice, because it would say "ENERGIEK IEMAND"

Oh my, you're so bawdy. But, I don't think you're tacky, baby. I was just hoping you'd say you do come here often, so I could look forward to you brightening my day again in the future.

Oh my, you're so bawdy. But, I don't think you're tacky, baby. I was just hoping you'd say you do come here often, so I could look forward to you brightening my day again in the future.3.13 posts per day, darlin'.

You're not very good at this! &lt;_&lt;

Some responses could have been "Avast! So...would a strapping pirate like ye be having a wench to swab his decks?" *wink, lean forward to show cleavage*

Or maybe

*SLAP*

Or even

*Throw drink in deckard's face and storm off in disgust*

You're not even trying, Ivy.

[Hustler]

3.13 posts per day, darlin'.

3.13 more reasons to love life everyday. Thanks for that. So, what are you wearing?

I'm sorry, it's just that.. I'm just so intimidated by your handsomeness, it's hard not to retreat into the comfort of smart remarks. *sigh*

[Rajah]

3.13 more reasons to love life everyday. Thanks for that. So, what are you wearing?A visage of regret.

[bergenski]

Wow, I just realized so many people have been flirting with me by insulting me. I'm such a foolish INTP.

[Ivy]

A visage of regret.

Rajah, your sock is very well-coiffed today. Who is its stylist?

[Hustler]

A visage of regret.

How about under that?

[Hustler]

Wow, I just realized so many people have been flirting with me by insulting me. I'm such a foolish INTP.

Just for the record, I wasn't flirting with you. I was pretty much just being insulting. Don't want you to get the wrong idea, guy.

[Deckard]

I'm sorry, it's just that.. I'm just so intimidated by your handsomeness, it's hard not to retreat into the comfort of smart remarks. *sigh*

That's ok, I think your intelligence is quite sexy actually! In fact, I-

*notices the ring*

Oh shi--

[Rajah]

How about under that?Moisturizer.

[Rajah]

Rajah, your sock is very well-coiffed today. Who is its stylist?Oribe.

But his talent is no match for yours.

[Ivy]

That's ok, I think your intelligence is quite sexy actually! In fact, I-

Oh shi--

Hey, just because I already ordered doesn't mean I have to give back the menu!

[Hustler]

Moisturizer.

Did you come to The flirting thread with the express purpose of turning me on? Because it's working, and no matter how regretful you're feeling about it, I don't have any regrets.

[NoahFence]

Good Evening, Monsieur Deckard, your table is ready. May I recommend the Asswhipping in Mango Sauce? Also the Lark's Tongue saute'ed in Dislocated Shoulder is exquisite today.

Oh wait...this is flirting, not jealous husband responses. My bad.

Does "flirting with disaster" count? :)

[Rajah]

Hustler, dear, Ivy drew me here. You're a pleasant bonus.

[Deckard]

Hey, just because I already ordered doesn't mean I have to give back the menu!

You've only ordered hors douvres. I'm the main course AND dessert, baby.

[Hustler]

Hustler, dear, Ivy drew me here. You're a pleasant bonus.

Are you suggesting the three of us arrange a little something, and maybe take it to the Mature Audience Only forum? Because, I'd be all for that except...I just don't know if I'd want to share you. I kind of want to keep you all to myself, babe.

[Deckard]

I think i'm in over my head here. Park! Help!

[mancroft]

<shy> :blush:

[Ghost-Girl]

This thread makes me laugh.

[Lee]

This thread makes me laugh.Did you just flirt with the entire thread?

[Hustler]

This thread makes me laugh.

You're pretty when you laugh.

[Ghost-Girl]

Did you just flirt with the entire thread?

Would you like that?
Or perhaps I was just hoping you would respond.

[NoahFence]

Sorry Ghost girl, if you want me to flirt with you, you'll have to change your avatar. Rose is far to hot, I'd never even try. If you want a demo, I'll have to simulate foot-in-mouth and say entirely inappropriate things.

[Ivy]

Problem is, the real Ghost-Girl is even more lovely than Rose.

[Ghost-Girl]

Sorry Ghost girl, if you want me to flirt with you, you'll have to change your avatar. Rose is far to hot, I'd never even try. If you want a demo, I'll have to simulate foot-in-mouth and say entirely inappropriate things.
Really, I had no idea. perhaps I can help you get over your phobia of hot women.

[Ghost-Girl]

But not lovelier than EnglishIvy. :wub:

[Birdsnest]

Most often, I go into silent shell shocked mode, unable to say a thing for quite some time if someone flirts, speaks or posts something for me. It really shocks me, unless its someone I'm really used to like my cubby neighbors, which I talk to often. So, if I don't respond to someones personal response thread, its not intended to be rude, just that stupid shock thing going on.

If I wanted to flirt, I'd write someone a private message and ask them something outright, that required action of some sort, with a direct statement, or give an honest felt compliment about something they did, but it wouldn't necessarily mean a response was required, just that I really thought something was cool or interesting.

The minute I find myself smitten with someone, and tell them, is the minute I know I'd better not say anything, so I can't just outright flirt.

[bergenski]

Just for the record, I wasn't flirting with you. I was pretty much just being insulting. Don't want you to get the wrong idea, guy.
Hard to get. Oh, you are a coy one.

[Rhu]

Well then, I shall eagerly await my private message!

You... don't mind if I watch you while you type it out, do you?

[NoahFence]

You... don't mind if I watch you while you type it out, do you?

Depends...are your eyes as creepy as your avatar's?

[Birdsnest]

Well then, I shall eagerly await my private message!

Done!

[Rhu]

Depends are your eyes
as creepy as your avatar's?

My avatar only wears diapers because I tend to crap myself when thinking of you, Noah. His depends aren't really creepy at all!

The poem was lovely, though. I'm actually blushing. Thank you. My eye-diapers are filling with tears.

[Jennywocky]

If this is what passes for "INTP love," I think I'm going to go look for the ENFP board for my temporary thrills.

[Ghost-Girl]

my temporary thrills.
As long as you come back here for your long-term thrills.;)

I knew there was a reason I got up this morning!
*waggles eyebrows*

You mean eyebrow, right?

There's nothing I find more attractive than a bug-eyed guy in a bolo tie, with a unibrow.

Would it be even more attractive if I told you your husband's poem convinced me to take off my pants?

[Ivy]

Infinitely moreso.

Better change your title.

Interesting. I'm always looking for ways to become even more attractive still. Any suggestive advice would be appreciated.

I don't know if I've told you this lately, raincrow007, but the only thing in the world more beautiful than your art is your smile. I'm so glad you decided to drop by the flirting thread.

I cannot ever hope to understand the workings of your mysterious and beautiful mind, raincrow007. I can only be eternally gladdened that you have given me the kindness of your attention. So, what are you wearing?

I've always thought you looked drop-dead gorgeous in that, my dear.

[Park]

When I want to flirt, I typically just give this look:

I've experienced strange chest pains lately, would the doctor care to have a look?

[Park]

With you Park, different alternatives

To begin conversation/catch attention
1) Hej, jag har studerat i Sverige, f?rst?r du svenska? (hoped answer: "ja, en lite",... and then where did you study? etc.)

Hejsa, jeg kan sagtens f?lge med i en Svensk dialog p? et overordnet plan - der er dog nogle enkle ord som kan smutte.

How intimate, to be able to communicate on a foreign launguage on a public board....

[Park]

I won't be bored and alone this evening, for despite the vast, cold sea which divides us, I will have you all to myself in my dreams, Park. Such sweet bliss that my heart tugs at my weary mind, compelling it to drift into that enchanted realm to join you.

Ok that's it.....you make the rest of us look like a bunch of loosers. I bet you are really an ENTP, you could at least pretend to be socially handicapped to make the rest of us feel better.

Okay, I must say that Park, English Ivy and Hustler are doing quite well.

You asked me to come help out on this with my feeling side, on the Halloween pic thread Park, but wouldn't that be cheating?

Just advertise your qualifications.

Well, okay. It's not a long presentation, is it? I sometimes give really long presentations, and the audience falls asleep.

The presentation is as long as it takes. Perhaps your presentations are not as stimulating and explosive as they need to be.

Hey, nice boobs Ivy!






....what?

Too subtle. Too jokey. She might have just thought the t-shirt was funny. (Never crack jokes on a resume!) Naw, dude--gotta go for unequivocally HO. Leave no room for debate.

You have to start out slow and steady to engage the audience. Good slide transitions are necessary and maybe even a little bit of animation. Then you have to end with a bang that will leave your audience breathless.

*sigh* I'm here to flirt, not to teach.

Oh my adorable Hustler. To sweep into your warm embrace would be not just a dream but heaven. Your very words have crossed that vast abyss and conveyed such tepid longing that my very soul has been deeply stirred.

tepid, lukewarm (http://wordnet.princeton.edu/perl/webwn?o2=&o0=1&o7=&o5=&o1=1&o6=&o4=&o3=&s=lukewarm) (feeling or showing little interest or enthusiasm) "a halfhearted effort"; "gave only lukewarm support to the candidate"

[thenightwasglory]

this thread makes my heart smile. i am amused.

i think Rhu's got the idea. whether obvious or not, feigning naivete is a good way to feel out whether it's friendliness or flirting. the downside (especially for guys) is that if you go to far with it, your subject will give up, deciding you're stupid. which, of course, is ironic.

your other option would be to simply befriend them, and see where it goes. of course, that requires patience (damnit).

oh, and i think "flirt harder / i'm an intp" would make an awesome shirt. in fact, i may just make one for myself. heh heh heh...

i think it's funny though, i can see the flaws in what all of you are saying, yet i know i could do no better myself.

[Shimpei]
