This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Good question! It made me challenge some of my assumptions.

Merriam Webster defines flirting as "to behave amorously without serious intent". Flirting, at its core, is a less direct, less intense way of letting someone know you're interested in them romantically and/or sexually.One can flirt with another person without it being reciprocal.

I made my previous comment as I used to dance and my ex is a dance instructor. Men attending dance lessons or going out to dance with solely amorous intent are the bane of many dance scenes.

Are they big guys?
