Flirty and fun V seriose and opinionated

Basically my question is:
Do guys like some one who is flirty, smiling, nice person, laughs at their jokes, but not opinionated, with a completely passive role in a relationship over someone who doesnt flirt as much, maybe more seriouse, nice person with an opinion and who holds some power in a relationship.
It just that i am a nice person, i am not ugly or anything, but i freak guys out so much, like boys talk to me and like me at first, but when we really start talking i am aware that i cant flirt like other girls, and i do take some stuff more seriosly than others, Its ;not like i have no sense of humour , its just that i get shy and cant laugh and joke around guys like others can, and it sort of puts guys off.
Any advice/ comments ?
Thanx everyone :biggrin:

Dont worry, just try abit of flirting.

I think a girl has to have two sides to her, cause otherwise she would be extemely boring.

Granted; however, if we're conversing, and she isn't laughing, then I feel it only natural to enquire as to which of her relatives recently passed away.

Just the funny stuff. So, basically, yes.

No, I mean if the girl just sits there at laughs at you all the time, she is just putting on a show. She is probably thinking "stfu you r*ed b*rd)

yea i laugh at funny stuff! i am not a robot. I just mean flirty laughter, like some girls do, when its not about anything funny- for example in Big Brother right now, chantel- she is constantly laughing in a flirty way- even if no one is saying anything funny- thats just an example

Nothing wrong with being serious, im serious on the surface but my gf sees a different funny side to me that no one else sees. Maybe its because your not totaly comftable with a particular person, like you said you do have a sense on humour but maybe someone would need to get to know you more before they see it.
It is interesting that so many personal ads have GSOH as a requirement.

That would depend on whether or not you possess a sense of humour. Or eyes.

I laugh when something is funny. But i mean i cant do the flirty laughing that i know some girls do. You know like the laughing at nothing just to make a guy think your cute. Example - is Big Brothers Chantell, (if anyone is watching that) she laughes even when know one is saying anything!

That's not flirtatious; that's just being inane.

i like people like yourself anon however it can get slightly off putting if you are with a girl who doesnt respond to my jokes and stuff. I am opinionated as well and it doesnt do me many favours because you can end up with a name for yourself that you are stuck up or something worse.

I think the best idea is to kinda lighten up and relax more.

depends on what day it is whom I like, Flirting is just being over friendly, flutter your eyelids or something, or play with your hair.

shy can be cute too, so that might work for you.

Precisely what I mean....

You must also think that your ginger beard is pretty funny as well.

at risk of sounding like my scottish roots. Drink Drink Drink

Meet people in atmospheres you are relaxed in and been there quite regularrly before. Seems to work for me
