Greetings Infomaniacs,

It is as old as sex. People flirt to bond or to express sexual interest. Flirting is a universal and essential form of human interaction.

Flirting is governed by a complex set of unwritten laws of etiquette that determine when, how, with whom, and where we flirt. We usually become aware of these laws only when someone breaks them.

Enjoy!

The most common mistake people make while flirting according to the Social Issues Research Centre is maintaining too much eye contact. A nonromantic glance lasts only 1.18 seconds and a flirtatious gaze lasts 23 seconds. Anything longer is uncomfortable.
