No Flirt
I’m a flirt
Pretty good at it
Has it time and place though
I’m learning to hold back
Just be a friend
Have it not be about me
Real talk
Back and forth
Listening
Asking questions
Being interested in the answers
People love to talk about themselves
Lord knows I know
This really isn’t about flirting
Or me
It’s about you
Our friendship
Our discourse
Thank you for talking
Answering my questions
Letting me in

i'm the same way. i flirt way too much.
i get this. sometimes it's hard to let people in. sometimes it's hard to let people be let in. if that makes sense.
i hope today is a good day, cowboy.

I'll bet you are a flirt
I can only imagine
Yes, people are complicated. The complication is sometimes the best part .....

Tell me some Jennifer stuff
That's an order !!

It's all in the sharing without expectation. That's where the connections are fused

I think it was Dale Carnegie who wrote that to be interesting you have to be interesting. Genuine interest in others show sympathy and care for others, we all just have different ways of approach.
Excellent write sir.
