How do you receive flirting?

I like subtle sorts of flirting involving word play and double entendres, coyness and humor. In other words, I like seduction. You have to stimulate me intellectually, psychologically as well as carnally or I'm not interested. I prefer it from women, but from certain guys, it's fine. Most aren't very good at it, I find.

It usually goes right over my head. Social cues are not my forte.Hey guys, how's it going?
So, how do you receive flirting?
Let's say you're a man/woman getting, for example, "hey sugar/baby/beautiful/handsome" from another man/woman, or the other way around. How would you feel about it?
As for me, I'd accept it at any weight from women even if it gets too heavy, but from another man it depends on my relationship with him and their nature, but in much less weight that from women.
How about it, lovely RF members
This whole post is just "wtf" and

If I'm attracted to them, then I'm more likely to pursue them than the other way around. If I can feel a good connection going and they make me feel comfortable, then physical things like looking me in the eyes and touching me are encouraged. I respond well to a good sense of humour, high confidence with their own sexuality, willingness to share personal details about themselves, etc. It helps if they're clearly attracted to me and intending to seduce me. Gender doesn't matter.
This is basically what I often do as well; I'm a terrible flirt.
How you doin'?

I'm doing just fine, milady. Why do you ask?How you doin'?
Good to know. Don't call me 'Buddy' and I won't call you 'Babe', Buddy.
Lmao I don't know anyone who says 'buddy'.
Really? You must be special. He only ever tells me to shut up and like it.
I mighta said it once or twice, although I'm kinda old school Australian, so 'mate' gets a good run, along with 'knackers' or 'chief'. Err...to be clear, I don't commonly say that to women (chief occasionally gets a run at work). I tend to more commonly use their name. This seems to be generally preferred. I'm a little flirty with some women I know, I guess, strictly in a fun/corny way, and am happy enough to receive the same treatment. But I'm pretty careful who, and any serious pick up attempts just make me feel uncomfortable.

Same.
I just can't play the "game". I don't know how to speak to people in code. If people like me I would prefer they just say it and be able to take it gracefully when I politely decline their offer to buy me a drink. How do I take flirtation? I don't. At least not very well. My BS meter is too high for that stuff.

I don't receive flirting well most of the time. Most people don't know how to do it and it comes off too strong too quickly and it makes me want to punch them. For instance, saying, "Hey, beautiful" when you don't know me well is too forward and is a complete turn off. To me, that's more along the lines of sexual harassment than flirting. I would prefer to have someone just take an interest in me a an individual, ask me about my hobbies, find out what I'm passionate about, maybe compliment something about my appearance eventually, or something more subtle like "I love your necklace!" Something where it's barely distinguishable from them wanting to be friends.
All too often I've had a guy I don't even know, like at all (especially online) come across way too strong when he's trying to be charming. It's disgusting. I've had people message me on writing websites, where I barely even have anything about myself on my profile, and within about two exchanges of messages they are wanting to sex-roleplay or asking for photos of me. It's just creepy and gross.
As for who I would be more receptive of flirting with me (male vs. female) I would probably be more comfortable with a woman doing it, mostly because women don't seem much like they have some agenda or ulterior motive. They seem like they actually do want to be my friend instead of many men who seem more like "I will say what she wants to hear until I get sex." (I know not all men are like this, of course, but in my experience, more men than women have been this way toward me.) In the right circumstance, I would be flattered if either a man or woman flirted with me, assuming they do so in a similar way. Either way though, I don't date, so I wouldn't be interested in an actual relationship with either person.

Just receiving a text message '' You know I love you '' at midnight right before sleeping is gorgeous.
My last flirt fooled me so hard,one of the reasons of my recent depression; he flirted with me for my money and my effectiveness in obtaining his visa to Canada.After his arrival to Canada you know the text message I received : '' CIAO ''
I was his ''white toy'' to show off his friends,my company SUV car which he was crazy for.
Never believe a gay man,never. They lie and use you.

Oh my God, is that the person you wanted to see goodbye in the airport but couldn't?
I'm so sorry. Please don't be hard on yourself. I met many people I loved so dearly (yeah, romantically) and couldn't even express my feelings to them. Some of them I know I'd never get the chance to be with, yet here I am managing. Don't give up and keep looking. You don't know what the future is holding for you.
