It's sometimes just fun to flirt with others. It can be entertaining, to laugh a bit, maintain eye-contact and pass a few compliments. However, if the person is awkward in social situations, they might not recognize the social cues that define the limited range of some flirting. It wouldn't be the first or last time someone reads too much into a casual smile, a wink or a laugh, as sometimes inner hopes can cloud judgement. |
Ooops - sorry for the delay. It's summer on the southern hemisphere, you see, and I was chilling in the beach for a while.
Casual smile, winks or laughs would be too far on the scale of wishful thinking. But that's not quite what I would consider flirting. I think, if you are into blatant sexual innuendo with someone for fun, then you probably are past attraction and deep in the friend zone already haha.
It could be a cultural thing too. People from the English world have more problems interpreting meaninful flirting and signs of attraction than those from Latin America and Continental Europe, or that's what I get from personal experience, at least.
