What is the difference between someone that is really liking you and someone that is just flirting with you?

Someone who puts your interests and desires first, above their own.

I would say flirting is when someone don´t know you very well, but is infatuated by you. Liking is the second step, where someone has gotten to know you better. Love is the third step, where you know a person very well, and you compromize and put your loved one first.

Flirting is like fishing. You cast your bait out to see if you can get a bite. You may cast your line out hundreds of times in hope of a nibble or even hook a big one. You never know what you've landed until it in the boat.

Someone who is really liking you has already done the preliminary stuff and knows that one fish they want to hook.

Flirting is evil. It has always made me sick to my stomach.

Well then how did you get married?

 

[now faith]

Single people who are mutually attracted to each other flirt.
Somthing as simple as body language is the test.
If your married it is sick, if your young it's God's law of attraction.

If someone is kind, and they have a pure heart they like you.
It is not a romantic advance.
I like many people and have a love for everyone, yet God's love is in my heart.
My wife lol I still flirt with her.

Long story. God spoke to each of us separately.

It did not contain flirting on either of our parts. I proposed a few minutes (5-10) into our first date.

We have been married now 41 years.

What does that have to do with flirting??

Why?

???

Why?

A proposition for marriage in the first minutes of the first date is not common at all, friend. Much less 41 years of marriage.

Historically in many cultures with arranged marriages, a couple did not even meet until the wedding.

If you work at the relationship, it can work and it can last. There should be no reason that any marriage between people who are committed to the Lord and to building a life together should not last a lifetime.

I agree with you.

WOW, that is a surprise. I would think it would be hard to strike up a friendship/relationship without it. It is a way to show interest.
Flirting can be a precursor to a mutual romance or not. It is pretty hard to make a connection without it.

I did ok.

In highschool I saw a lot of girls flirting with the foot ball and basket ball guys, getting all syrupy sickey sweet in their demeanor, and some guys doing the same thing back to the cute girls.

UGH!!!!! (and no - I was not being jealous)

I openly rejected the ones that overtly tried to flirt with me; at least the ones I recognized. Apparently there were a few that I totally missed. They just got ignored.

To answer the question before it comes up - I did have normal crushes, a couple of HUGE ones in highschool. And no, I did not let on how I felt to them. (although the 2nd one found out I think, my friends talked to one of her friends)
