LOL, I would have a very difficult time flicking my hair, holding eye contact and licking my lips. I'm a bit old fashioned and that type of behavior just seems too aggressive for my taste.
Also, i've never really been a fan of online dating. I just feel like it's unnatural to a certain extent.
I am the same way.
I have never actually done the flicking hair and eye contact thing because I never had to do that to get a guy (read black guy), growing up in Africa and considered it very forward.
However, in the U.S., it is different and I found that many white guys want some sort of signal from girls (black, white and inbetween). I have heard this from white guys, white girls, even a good friend from Africa who regularly dated white guys. She learned to flirt with them using those methods and was very successful.
I was also not a big fan of online dating, in fact one of my earliest posts on CD was trying to find places in the U.S. where the guys were more forward, however, I live in a socially dead place and many people here utilize online dating and so I decided to try it.
I went from never having been hit on by white guys to being bombarded by them. Apparently, a lot of people are emboldened online. At any rate, it destroyed any thoughts I had that I was not attractive to white guys or needed to do anything special to get them. I was still my self, just now online.
I don't use dating websites but my sister has and she has gotten a lot of responses from white men more than any other race. Just go out and mingle where different races of men are if you are attractive men will approach you.

I just relocated to this area and I do not have any female friends or associates to venture out with. Perhaps this explains why I'm a bit hesitant. There's nothing worst than being alone in a social atmosphere...

Althought you already expressed you do not like online dating, I find it a very good way to send the signal that you are open for an interracial relashionship. I am Latina (but I have dark skin and an accent which lead many to believe that I am from Jamaica, go figure) and when I'm out the only men who approach me are Hispanics and blacks. White men look but they never come forward... Until I signed up for online dating. I think many white men want to be 100% sure that you will not discriminate them based on their race/color before they approach you and online dating lets them know that. Online dating might not be "natural" to many people but it's becoming more and more normal nowadays.

That's true, it is becoming more common place. I'd just prefer to deal with people face to face. I don't want to provide detailed personal information to strangers, without even knowing who I'm communicating with.
I'm in Tucson, AZ. I relocated here due to a job transfer...
Never been. There is a Tucson CD forum however, where you could prolly easily find out which areas are more diverse, which IMO is what could help you out a little. Best of Luck!
Good thing you're opening up about the possibilities to date other men, cause I don't think that there is an abundance of black dudes in Tucson.
Sierra may chime in soon and possibliy set me straight if I'm wrong.
Blacks account for less than 3% of the Tucson population, but on a positive note, I love my career.
