For the record, one more time. I am not a doormat. I'm tired of just about every woman I get interested in treating me like one. Do not call me up after most people eat dinner, tell me you're sick, tell me that all your other plans fell through but if I'd like to drive to see you, that would be 'nice'. Why not just tell me, 'everyone I like is gone but you can spend money on me if you want'? Also, women, learn to differentiate between flirting and manners. If you're using decent 'civilized human being' behaviors, I don't read that as flirting. I also don't read 'i'm bored, entertain me' as flirting, but again, as either a 'just friends' haha, or as another 'last resort doormat' comment. Finally, do not send me mixed messages in sharp staccato. Finding every chance to be in my line of sight, and giving me that great smile is good. Finding every single excuse to not actually talk to me, is not good. do not smile like you do, and I know you think it's flirting because I've seen you finding excuse after excuse to linger till we're closer, then smile, then run away. I think you're nuts, not flirting now. I will not be asking you to coffee, movies, or even my tetanus shot.
