science flirting

Flirting is tied to the limbic system, those ancient parts of the human brain that control survival-based drives, such as sexuality and all the emotions that come with it. Here, flirtation is less a social skill and more an impulsive behavior that takes our intellect hostage. A flirt-or-flight response.

But flirting isn't entirely instinctual either. It's also governed by cultural rules and social etiquette. Breaking these rules, an embarrassing rejection, or pursuing affection at an inappropriate time can lead to a loss of social capital that can be hard to recover.

Stuck between the instinctual and social, it's no wonder that people feel at odds with themselves when it comes to the art of the flirt.

flirting with a cop

Being pulled over; interrogation by a cop; unexpected rear view flashing lights; irrational ticket violation.

•If you are driving and a cop pulls you over for nothing out of the ordinary.

•If a cop gives an irrational reason for pulling you over; such as:
- "I didn't see your seatbelt."
- "You didn't use your blinker before turning."
- "You were just about 5mph over the speed limit."
- "I noticed you turned a little too fast around that corner."

• I was on my way home before I was pulled over to flirt with a cop.
• Just flirted with a cop trying to drive to work.
• I didn't expect to be flirting with a cop for not fully stopping at a stop sign.
• Just flirted with a cop for not using my blinker! But he thankfully gave me a warning for such a minor mistake.

flirting 101

A course that contains basic complementing and conversational skills. Research designs have been used to meet those who take flirting as humorous and playful rather than assaultive.

Example 1: “Wow that pickup line was really smooth”

“Thanks, I took Flirting 101 last semester.”

“Wow you’re really good at flirting”
“Thanks, I took Flirting 101 as a sophomore”

Flirting with ~anxiety~

Snapchatting or texting someone you want to hook up with that you are under your weighted blanket so they respond with “I’ve never used one before” and you can tell them to come over.

Me: My weighted blanket is my only method of flirtation...
Anyone: What do you mean???
Me: I’m only used to flirting with ~anxiety~
