It seems the art of flirting may be going the way of land lines and hand written letters. There is now an app designed to express interest, make introductions and offer first lines of conversation. Users can choose from a menu of lines telling someone they have noticed them, bring these up on their little screen and show them to their new interest in a bar, at a singles event or anywhere a compatible person may be found. Imagine having a screen shoved in front of you on the metro or at church- this could get interesting….. If interested look up “iFlirt4u” to read all about it.
Then there is an app “Flirt-wikiHow” that contains tips and step by step instructions for flirting as well as warnings about what to look out for. Volunteers contribute to this, so it is filled with their experiences and related best tips. Humm, could put folks like me out of business…not.
Then there’s AXE Auto Romeo that lets guys talk to many women at the same time. So reassuring to know how special we are. It sends personalized messages to women on the user’s behalf. He doesn’t need to do much but select and program to send. You can get these through Apple or Android.
Back before we had this technology, women often made fun of guys they had just met using lines on them. Do you remember the jokes about “What’s your sign,” or “I know I’ve never met you because if I had, I would not have forgotten you.” It seems we haven’t progressed very far in our understanding of what really turns someone on and how the personal/genuine/sincere connection is what really matters. Now, we can really limit ourselves to a few canned lines, sent out to many people at once- just to make sure we are maximizing the numbers game. Ah, wherefore art thou Romeo?
