    Because it's funny watching dopey blokes pant like dogs.

    This is the typical Irish male ''flirting'' I take it?

    Just because we say hi and have a chat about xyz while we wait in line at the bar / other random situations does not mean we want to jump your bones.

    I used to tone down my friendliness in social situations with people I didnt know, because I was accused of this a few times. Then i decided that was too hard for me to do cuz Im naturally fairly chatty so now, I let people know off the bat that Ive a fella (paticularly if Im in a club or something) purely so I cant get in trouble/get a reputation for flirting. But I do think that prob makes me look up my own ass (as if Im assuming every guy who talks to me is flirting with me)
    Its lose-lose for us gals I tells ya!!

    Because some girls are naturally flirty i guess, same goes for blokes. I'm useless at flirting :(

    Nah just being friendly. It seems there are a lot of Irish lads out there who can't tell the difference.

    Personally, I am disappointed that it took 3 pages to get the obligatory "They're not flirting, they are just being nice!" :P

    Some girls like to feel like they still have it

    You know what, I don't blame chicks for this **** - it's just the way they're hardwired.
    It's like blaming a snake cause it's a slimey ****. I mean, no sense it making it feel bad cause of it.

    I blame guys who aren't tuned in enough to know what's going on.
    Chicks claim to not even know what they want themselves - it's more a case of their unwillingness to admit it.

    The least a guy should be able to do is figure out that much.

    So this is what I've learned so far from After Hours about how women are perceived in Ireland :eek:


    Women who take care of themselves eg make up, tan, hair, clothes are vacuous oompa loompas and are fair game for personal comments re their appearance
    Women who don't take care of their appearance eg make up, tan, hair etc are fair game for personal comments and are probably frigid/hairy/fat etc (see numerous Mary Harney threads)

    Women who accept drinks are sluts.
    Women who don't accept drinks are either frigid and/or lesbians.

    Women who don't talk to you/or don't reward you for talking to them are frigid and/or lesbians.

    Women who have a boyfriend and talk to other men are sluts.
    Women who have a boyfriend and don't talk to other men are frigid and/or lesbians (girl's boyfriend is just a devious cover)

    Women who say no don't know their own minds
    Women who say yes are sluts

    All I can say after typing all that is :(

    And a slut is a terms a guy labels a girl with if
    1) She is genuinely throwing it about to much/throwing it about for the wrong reasons.

    2) She goes off with another bloke ahead of the guy in question, or the guy in question can't get with her cause he has no game - he calls her a slut, but more as a means to relieve his own sense of inadequacy.

    But girls have labels for guys in this regard also, so it works both ways.

    3) And also, chicks who fail to conduct themselves with the necessary degree of integrity when hooking up.

    Yeh it works both ways...guys are slightly more confusing than girls though:confused:

    That sounds like American PUA stuff, tbh.

    Yep, people who like huge generalisations like that stuff.

    Its partially because our boyfriends do the same thing with other girls :):p

    Actually, that comment has gotten under my skin quite significantly.

    If there was ever a case of "you can take the horse to water...", this is it.

    Continue in your un-blissful ignorance bro. The sadist thing is that your the same as most.
    As far as your concerned, you just chance your arm with chicks and hope for the best.

    You know what, I pity Irish chicks.
    Some of them are so hot - you deserve better.

    No wonder they're flirting with randomer's while their boyfriends are stood two feet away.
    It's probably a subconscious effort to get their man to wake up to the fact that they're hot and to pay them some attention (sexual attention), and stop acting like such a jack-the-lad d**k in an effort to impress them.

    Irish mentality is backward and focked, and so long as we have people who maintain the attitude of the above poster, it will continue to be so.

    That's why America is the greatest country on earth. Cause they're open minded enough to take on board some things that the likes of the Irish instantly label as "Pick up artist" material and associate it with other negative connotations.
    And if there was any country that could benefit from taking a leaf out of their book, it's Ireland.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,134 ✭✭✭Lux23


    Because their boyfriends are boring, sexually inadequate losers and they want to meet someone else.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,134 ✭✭✭Lux23

    Men who call women chicks are idiots.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,884 ✭✭✭Eve_Dublin


    If I´ve ever flirted with another guy in the past it was because I was bored of my current one. Very simple.

    And Irish guys really do have a problem with mixing up friendliness and flirting.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37 tmax


    Good for attention-seeking, nice for the other guys :) All round fun except for the bf although she's probably hot so he shouldnt complain. Maybe if he flirted with her a little more himself it wouldnt happen


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,148 ✭✭✭✭KnifeWRENCH


    I read the title of this thread wrong; I thought it said "Why do some girls have boyfriends that flirt strongly with other guys?"

    That would have been a more interesting discussion, methinks. Oh well....

    Haha, only the hot ones deserve better, take that fatties!!!

    You can smell the misogyny off that post

    Most snakes are actually quite dry.
