The winker holds the power.....look at the sway it has over you!

When they wink at you, send them a "two-can-play-at-that-game" wink back. Up their silly ONE wink with TWO winks back!

Wink away!

(and then please report back.....I have no idea what the ramifications of a 'double-wink back' may be )

Guess your a babe magnet! It must suck to be you! Attractive women winking at you all the time. Yeah...I wouldn't want to be in your shoes!
Good luck with that!

I think riveree has hit on it. If I wink at a guy (and it is rare to do so!) it means I am comfortable, really like him as a person, and is innocent flirting only. If I thought he wouldn't take it that way, would not do it!

Thank god you are not in NC, it could be worse. It would go way beyond winking, there would be "Darlin, Sweety, Honey, Nice butt baby and more. I have never been anywhere where there are so many sexual undertones. But really they are just being friendly and flirty!!

Thats rather negative, Flirting is a common social thing. Usually harmless social interaction.
Sorry about that. I was just trying to be amusing but it did sound a little negative.

Hey I think u should be polite and smile. Although I am female and I don't wink even if I think a guy is cute. I have spent a lot of time in Texas over the years and I can't think of any female friends who wink either...but maybe u got it like that

If someone winks at me, I usually smile and wink back.

If I wink at someone, it's usually because I'm flirting

I think lilypad got it right. I'm a Texan and I'd take a purposeful wink (as opposed to a twitch), especially from an older person, as a sign of friendliness, or encouragement, or acknowledging a little joke. At most it's harmless flirting.
