Title of the article is "12 Flirty Conversation Starters That Totally Work."

http://www.thinkcontra.com/12-flirty-co ... La-Voz-USH

Probably more accurate to call it "Conversation Starters to show interest: 6 good, 2 slightly creepy, 2 that wouldn't start a conversation with an aspie, and 2 you'd need to somewhat know the person first or would totally weird the guy or girl out" but that wouldn't get past editing.

Author is writing as a woman, but can apply either way.

I now realize I've been flirted with on more than one occasion.

I read this. I don't understand how these are flirty. Most seem like normal conversation starters to me, except for the one's where you compliment someone.

Women really don't mind it if you compliment them.

Honest.

I’m sure that depends a lot on who you are.

It’d be funny to see a list of the matching conversation stoppers.

f**k off
Screw off
Got to go
I can't be bothered to talk right now
Jog on
Go away
Can't talk right now
I want to be alone

...and ones more creatively crafted than Rudin's suggestion.

"It accelerates faster when girls are trying flirty pickup lines on me."

Very clever.

I agree mine weren't very creative, but they are very effective. When I tell people to go away, they usually go away, usually after calling me rude.

As do I. They are more effective than "sugar-coating" what you actually mean.

I have fallen victim to your trap. My soul has been stolen unfortunately. I believe that is just seeing how morbidly curious people are. So far 42 people were so morbidly curious that they clicked the link.

I think I'd be slightly irritated by the elevator one and maybe think you're trying to take me for a fool. Where's the hidden camera? ^^

Who should win that nobel prize thing? I have to admit, this wonderful question... I don't give a flying f**k about.

Smiling I don't count as flirting.
In fact all of these I don't necissarily recognize as flirting... I'd think it's just someone being nice, possibly trying to get something from me in the near future and once they have it never to talk to me again. Or just for the sake of being nice, which isn't quite as bad...
