How do you react to flirting?

When someone is flirting with you, do you feel repulsed, flattered, amused, cautious or what? Or it depends on who is doing it (then what are the factors that affect your reaction)?

Depending on whose doing it, I can feel amused or flattered. My coworkers flirt with me a lot, so that's when I feel amused.

Uhm, I guess I would feel flattered if it was just some random person. I get easily embarrassed.

Probably bounces back and forth between flattered and amused, unless I dislike the person, then I am simply irritated and act in such a way that they get the point and leave me alone.

To be honest I have a hard time reading people when they are flirting with or just being nice to me.

I usually realize it weeks later.

In one case years later.

I wonder which is worse. Thinking someone is flirting with you when they're just being nice. Or thinking someone is just being nice when they're flirting with you (and you're not responding!).

I get extremely nervous. I tend to do a little flirting back all the while trying to get out the situation. I might make the excuse that I'm going to get something to drink and I'll be right back, but never come back or some other lie. Trying to protect their feelings while trying to do a disappearing act is tough.

I hear ya Swift, I'm the same way. For whatever reason I've always taken flirting is people just having fun and being out-going. I usually never notice. I dont know if I'm just not paying attention to the signs or if I'm just a moron...probably both haha.

I'm the same way as Millz and Swift. I have a kind of low confidence level for whatever reason, and usually assume that girls aren't flirting with me. Sometimes I'm way too late on catching onto something haha.

When I do realize it, I'm always flattered. Regardless of if I'm attracted to the girl or hate her guts, it's always flattering. Hell, even if a gay guy flirted with me I'd be glad to know that somebody finds me attractive!

I have a hard time figuring out whether someone is flirting with me just for fun, or if they're actually interested.
