I start conversations all the time. Sometimes with creepy old women and ugly dudes. AM I FLIRTING WITH THEM!???? Egads!! O_o<br /><br />(^ sarcasm intended above)<br /><br />But seriously, that's such a vague definition of flirting. Can no one just be friendly? I'm a chatterbox and I get lonely, thus I start conversation everywhere I go.

And then I'm not really even sure if I want to date people.

While I think a lot of aces probably don't flirt much, there are some who do, and obviously there are people of other orientations who aren't into random flirting.Ilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12795337226989102549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5223027726680052006.post-24448607460062906952010-04-26T18:08:11.471-07:002010-04-26T18:08:11.471-07:00Heck, I'm sexual, and I'm usually very unc...Heck, I'm sexual, and I'm usually very uncomfortable with flirting.

For it to be successful, you have to gauge the other person's interest. Maybe that only awkward people flirt with me is more than my perception-- because people who are better at it can tell I'm not interested.Ilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12795337226989102549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5223027726680052006.post-81803155244091407592010-04-26T12:41:27.795-07:002010-04-26T12:41:27.795-07:00Reading this was actually pretty comforting to me....Reading this was actually pretty comforting to me. I'm kind of floating about in this miasma of thoughts on the subject: wondering whether I know 'how' to flirt, if I liked it, or if I cared about it all! I have no problem talking to people, but like you, I think when other people try to actively 'flirt' with me I get scheezoid vibes. I feel like I have the same problem with compliments; half the time I don't understand why they're saying anything to me at all and if not that, they're still creepy and I would just like them to go away. In general, the more and more I read thoughts from people who identify as asexual the much less weird I feel. <br /><br />--DWAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
