Shouldn’t flirting get easier as you get older? Why doesn’t practice make perfect? Is he just a nice, touchy guy or is he actually interested?
Flirting can be confusing for everyone, but for bisexuals, flirting can be even more baffling. Of course we know every man and woman isn’t going to be attracted to us, but sometimes, we can’t help but want it to be true so badly that we mistake some awkward situations as flirting.
Here are some of those times:
1. When you get a late night call from him, and he asks if he can come over because he's bored.
Duh, but like, what do you want to do?
2. When he asks if you want to hang out after work.
Hang out? Okay, but what does that mean?
3. When he says he could totally see himself dating you.
Wait, then why aren’t we dating? Are you attracted to men too?
4. When he checks you out at the gym.
And you can’t tell if he’s sizing you up or actually interested.
5. When he asks for your number to chill sometime.
So does chill mean play Super Smash Bros and go home, or does chill mean play Super Smash Bros and make out?
6. When he pays for your dinner.
Friends can pay for your dinner too, but what’s the occasion?
7. When you share the same bed after going out because he’s too tired to drive home.
Why did he hop in bed with you when there’s a perfectly good couch in the living room?
And finally when someone actually is flirting with you, and you learn that he or she is also bisexual.
