Anyway on with the real post.
For those of you who know me, it will come as no suprise when i say
that i, domestic goddess, cannot flirt. I am just not capable of
doing it. I think that i must have missed that day in school when
they taught all girls how to flirt, of i just got a big fat F in it
because i didn't feel like it applied to me. I have concluded that
the main reason i will not flit is that i find it demeaning. I think
that it will make me look stupid and that is not something that i
enjoy. upon learning this some wonderful women that i work with have
taken it upon themselves to teach me how to flirt. One of them in
particular, has decided tat she will be my personal tutor. I have
even been given homework already, which i am sure to put off until the
very last minute when i can endure the pestering no longer. I have
decided that i need to share these ittle "pearls of wisdom" withthe
rest of the world so that if there happen to be more pathetic souls
like myself out there, this will either make hem laugh or help them
out. So here are the first to days of lessons:
1. Men are like dogs, too much eye contact is seen as an act of
aggresion, Smile and briefly make eye contact, then look away
demurely. Is demurely even a real word? oh well, that is how i choose
to phrase it. deal with it.
(apparently i have been going at this all wrong by treatingmen like
human beings, silly me)
2. Competition between the two of you is a form of research to see how
he will take winning. Let him win the first game, if he is a cocky
jerk about it beat him soundly next time, if he is cute and
apologetic, let him win again, just not by as much this time.
(again, i have been going at this wrong. I am not someone who
likes to get beat. I will try to win, not let him win. I must do
better at this.)
3. Touch him on the elbow. this is the magic spot. (the Elbow?! O.K.
right. got it.)
4. Men like to appear needed. Make sure he knows you are the "weaker"
sex. (hey i need men to kill spiders, change my oil, tires and open
jars. I think that is a sufficient display of weakness thank you very
much!)
So there you have it. My first two days of lessons. WooHoo.

I can flirt....some. I know those things already, however I have found that I just can't play the game. I cheat at games because I just don't like them. Therefore, I flirt and then I just put all of my cards out on the table. I must not have a very good set of cards or they can't handle the fact that I just put them all out there, but I am not about to be hide who I am in order to trick someone into liking me.
There is my two cents, of course you may want to listen to people that have actually had success in the dating world....cuz honey we all know that isn't me!
What does it say about me that I laughed all the way through this post???
I laughed all the way through as well. :) I'm with you though JRA, lay it all out there once you get flirting out of the way, the games can only go so far...
I agree with JRA & Holly - maybe the fact that we don't like to "play the game" says something. ;o}
