Compulsive Flirting

This question is from a Group Therapy post in our TrèsSugar Community. Add your advice in the comments! All right, I am a compulsive flirt. I juggle around 10 or so guys a day via text/Facebook.

Athens Most Flirtatious City

Love may be among the ruins, but flirting is alive and well in the streets of Athens.

Flirting Quiz

I just stumbled upon an academic inquiry into the age-old subject of flirting by the University of Kansas. I love taking surveys, so naturally I clicked away. It's based on the five types of flirts we already know: physical, traditional, polite, sincere, and playful. But the results — while probably correct — don't really sugarcoat things.

Women Respond Best to Compliments About Lips

Women are famous for not being able to take a compliment, but some compliments are better received than others. I'd say genuine ones work best, which is probably true, but a new study by dating site Badoo found women from different countries are more susceptible to certain compliments.

Guys Who Don't Ask Girls Out

A woman's work is never done, is it? Now we can add asking men out to the list of things we're "expected" to do. A trend piece in Minneapolis Star-Tribune seems archaic at first, introducing the topic as if it were outlandish. "Not long ago, the idea that women might be the ones to make the moves would have been considered improper." But women aren't just starting to ask men out, they are Read more
