Does it actually matter whether you flirt with someone or not in order for them to (potentially) develop feelings for you? A lot of people have told me it’s intrinsic, as in “If they like you, they like you.” So you should just treat the person you’re interested in like you would any other person.

So if it all comes down to connection and looks, doesn’t that make flirting a bit redundant?

Edit: To clarify, I see flirting as banter to make sexual/romantic intentions known.

    No, it isn’t. They may already like you but how will they know you care if you don’t offer an array of easy to misunderstand signals?
