There are women who have this entire persona that emerges only around men-their voices go up high, their eyes widen, they give over-the-shoulder looks, they use words normally reserved for really bad romance novels and they change their walk. UGH!! I've seen it in my sister, my best friend, girls at school....pathetic really. Then, just as the person they're doing this all to gets within their zone, they're pushed away by someone who has taken over that flirtatious persona and replaced it with a territorial female gorilla.
I flirt-a LOT. But I also am upfront about what's going on-it's flirting, interaction, nothing more. Games? Maybe, but the rules should be there for all to read-not made up as you go along.
Most of my friends are male-maybe because they understand the rules better. Maybe because no game-playing is involved. And, most importantly, maybe it's because there's no 'competition' that would force me to go into the high-pitched, hip-swinging phony persona in order to gain attention.
