I found some very useful information in the following article. I will cite what are, to me, the highlights:

Quote:

According to Dr. O'Connor, there are several examples of male flirting behavior.

- Clears his throat - A guy might clear his throat or make some other loud noise just to get women to look at him. From there, he will try to read the looks he gets from the women in the room to see if anyone casts an interested glance his way.

- Talks loudly - Men in a group might be having a good time, but underlying a lot of this loud talk could be a tactic to get women to look their way. Then they gauge the reactions they get to see if anyone is interested.

- Doing something odd - He'll either bend down and pull up his socks, smooth his hair back, shake out his jacket, hold his beer up in the air, anything that will make him stand out.

There’s something extremely erotic about a man pulling up his socks. Not only does it catch my attention, but it fills me with longing, especially if the socks are mismatched and/or brightly colored.

Attention Is the Ultimate Male Flirting Signal

All in all, it might seem like knowing if a guy is flirting with you is hard to figure out. Dr. O'Connor's advice is to keep in mind that if a man is showing you attention, it's the ultimate signal he's interested. Then you can flirt back with him to show your interest and help you move to the next stage.

I think paying attention in small ways to a woman can make women notice a man. Women are pretty intuitive and often know when a man likes them romantically, in my experience, even just from hints such as the duration of attention and how attentive a person is to them in particular. This works especially in addition to some of the other 'signs' as mentioned in the article.

I always do that at parties or when visiting a bar and my socks are usually mismatched. I never knew that women find that so attractive. Turns out a life, until now mysteriously, blessed with good luck with women comes from pure luck, then!

I thought TP was being facetious with that comment you quoted, BillyTree? I could be wrong?

I usually only recognise a person by their socks flirting or not

I was being facetious overall although I really do have a soft spot for mismatched or otherwise ridiculous socks.

I think reading a man's mind isn't too hard. It's the intention part that's a little more tricky.

I gurgle like a baby at women I'm attracted to. Then, when I have their attention, and never breaking eye contact, I pull a bratwurst out of my pocket and run it under my nose as if I were smelling a fine cigar.

^ :lol:

^^ It’s just so confusing. What if the feathers are only halfway up? Or what if he puts on that sexy display for all the ladies? Or what if he just likes a good stretch now and then?

Halfway up, he's flirting but only halfheartedly.

Flirts with everyone, he's a slut, but we don't judge.

Who doesn't enjoy a good stretch, but it's still flirting if anyone sees.

And how not to flirt... unless you want a police record perhaps?
