text: what are some ways guys flirt? hey so um i'm pretty retarted when it comes to recognizing flirting... like ive been known to accidently flirt and not know when a guy is flirting at all. so what are some differences between flirting and just being friendly and fun? i would mostly like to hear from the guys? i think being fun and playful is very similiar to flirting, but dont take it the wrong way. if your flirting you will seem to be making more gestures while playing or talking......thats all i know
