seriousdad Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 Hi All, Mid-40’s guy, divorced and have been dating for a while now. My issue is that the women I date do not flirt or show any signs of interest even though I do. This drives me crazy as I don’t know if they’re in to me and if I’m wasting my time. I’ve had 2 short term relationships and they were the same. If I didn’t initiate, it doesn’t happen. If I do, then in some cases it moves forward. But the lack of flirting in the beginning has been pretty consistent, even with the 2 short term relationships. My current interest is also doing this. No outward signs of interest but she will text me a few times a day and we’ve been out twice. Both times have been nice and I kissed her on the second date and she didn’t turn away but the lack of flirting confuses me. Am I over thinking this or is this the norm for most women my age? Tia!
hippychick3 Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 I am a terrible flirt with guys I don't know, even when I'm really into a guy. I usually did not flirt on first dates and preferred to observe my date and size him up before "opening up" to that extent. I'm sure there were guys who couldn't tell if I was interested or not because of this. But with the guys I was most interested in, I was very friendly but not flirty. Now once I know the guy I like is all into me and I feel "safe" enough around him, I'm super affectionate and flirty.
