Vanity II

If I knew what made me attractive to the opposite sex, I would bottle it up, have it synthesized and sell the product for enormous profit. It's something that I've been trying to figure out for the past five years to no avail, since the first time I had someone from the opposite sex approach me to inform me that they were attracted to me. Granted, I was a very different person 5 years ago, full of piss, vinegar and swagger whereas presently I believe myself to be a much more reserved person.

However the one constant has been that these girls have always been extremely aggressive in courting my attention. Which might sound like I'm greatly exaggerating my prowess as a sexually(?) attractive man but is a fact for the meager seven or eight who have done so in my lifetime.

What is it that made them attracted enough to risk being upset by rejection? I do not possess the balls to actively engage in flirtations with the intent of beginning a romantic relationship, nor am I equipped with enough sensibilities to drastically alter my behaviour in an attempt to impress upon a female whom I may be attracted to-whether false or not-qualities that I may possess.

This lack of knowledge is very troubling, and I need to get to the bottom of this soon if my future happiness(?) is to be guaranteed.

Bottle this up: Flirting without the intent of beginning a romantic relationship. Women love reckless behaviour like this, although they won't admit it.

I agree with c. Also, flirting can be for fun. For practice. So you are equipped to seal the deal when you need to.

well, flirting IS life! There's nothing serious and no commitments. Otherwise, imagine how monotonous life is going to be!
