Flirting With Disaster?

So...

As all of y'all know (or not), Fridays are my meetings with OZ.

In these meetings, we discuss issues with accounts and it's always Glynda, OZ and I.

My meeting with him yesterday got me thinking, I know, dangerous thing to do on an empty stomach and on a Friday.

You see, my name is Bee and I'm a flirting addict.

Don't worry, Andy knows all about it and I told him about my post for today and he seemed as supportive as he always is [as in "uh-huh, okay, yeah... FRAG OUT!" frag out is from his shooting game, he was taking a break from the Orcs]

Anyway...

I noticed something yesterday, when OZ and I were going back and forth joking around, I looked at Glynda and she was looking at her notebook flippin' pages but I could see her eyebrows were raised. Yup! I raised her eyebrows! Not unusual for me of course since I am blessed with that power.

I realized what her beef was, she was upset cuz we were flirting.

Don't get me wrong, I don't do it maliciously or to try to gain anything. It's just a part of who I am.

But I tried to tone it down a notch anyway, cuz I really don't want rumours to start. (I would go on a beating spree the likes you've never even heard of. My rage would be such that I would just need to think about them and they'd be hospitalized...!!!! Okay I digress.)

Here is a sample of our convo: [this one is pretty mild]

OZ:

Do you know what's going on with this account? It's about 7 years old.

Bee:

Oh you mean it's BBC? (Before Bee C)

[OZ laughed]

OZ:

What did we do before you?

Bee:

I really don't know!

OZ:

What was the world like before you?

Bee:

It was a very sad place!

OZ:
They're was no sunshine only clouds!

Bee:

I believe it!

[We were laughing the whole time]

That's when I turned to look at Glynda.

Hey! I stand by what I said! The place was a tangled mess of dog crap and grass when I first started there so I was only speaking the truth.

AND!

Well, not to toot my own horn but I am pretty sunshiney in a "wear some dark shades so that the UV rays don't give your eyeballs cancer" kinda way! ;op

Again I've rambled!!

Look, if it's taking too long to read this, save your place, go do what you gotta do then come back and finish it cuz I'm thinking it'll be a while before I'm done with my little rantings.

Just sayin'.

This situation concerned me enough that I decided to ask the people who would know best, Andy, Nancy and one person which whom I've innocently flirted with.

First Andy.

Bee:

Babe, does it bother you that I flirt with people? I mean you know it doesn't mean anything right?

[I recognize that if it were the other way around, I would be blind with jealousy you do not need to point that out, thanks!]

Andy:

As long as you don't do it in front of me... no, it doesn't bother me but there is a line not to cross.

Bee:

Yeah, I know but sometimes I think people misinterpret my actions and take me too seriously.

Andy:

Like who?

Bee:

The people around listening or watching me.

Andy:

Whatever, you know what you're doin'.

Bee:

Well you might get pissed once I tell you this but, remember the cat sticker I had on my face Halloween? [I continue after he nods] well OZ asked me today where it was since he almost didn't recognize me without it. I laughed and said it turned into a pumpkin. He then asked me what the name of my cat was and before I could answer he leaned in and asked 'is his name cheeky?'.

Andy:

What the fuck is that shit? If I would've been there it would have been within my rights to punch that asshole!

Bee:

Yeah, that did give me the heebie jeebies but I didn't take it seriously and plus Glynda was there, it would have worried me if it was just us two.

[I changed the subject slightly cuz I could tell he was a little pissed]

Bee:

Do you remember me flirting with you?

Andy:

Not really. [leers] I just remember you being all over me!

Then he said something that I cannot share cuz his momma would blush. He actually asked me if I would post it and I told him he was nuts, he laughed manically!

::sigh:: that was the end of that seriousness!

Now Nancy.

Bee:

Do you think it's horrible of me to be so flirty all the time? It's not like I really mean to, it just happens.

Nancy:

No, we're all like that.

[true, every single one of us took after the Father Dude in that respect]

Bee:

I just don't want people thinking I'm doing it intentionally...

Nancy:

You wouldn't be you otherwise. Besides, why do you care?

[Good question! Why do I care? I'll have to ponder...]

Now Person who I've innocently flirted with.

[Andy was a little angry at this but he can't control me, he can only hope to contain me! J/K!] We will call this person "Secret Person" But I'm going to be copying and pasting answers exactly as given to me so I think you'll figure it out! ;op

Bee:

How would you rate my flirting 1-being not so much, 10-being excessive.

SP:

0-not enough you should do more of it! No really about an 8 but not saying excessive just you do it so well.

Bee:

When I do flirt, you know I'm not serious right?

SP:

Yeah I know! You just have an answer for everything so its not a bad thing to have a come back when somebody flirts with you.

Bee:

Has it made you uncomfortable at times?

SP:

No I can't say it has. I think it's cuz you're funny when you do it. Like when I asked you what it would take to run off with me and you said you'd do it in a heart beat but what would happen to your shoes? Every time I remember that it makes me laugh.

[AWWWWW!]

Bee:

Anything you'd like to add?

SP:

I flirt all the time, at restaurants, school, ball games, everywhere I can. I don't see why that would bother you to do the same. I know why you're asking but if they know the commitment you have to Andy it shouldn't matter. If they have something bad to say that's on their perverted mind not yours. I have spoken!

[Ha! Very well said SP!]

::sigh::

I think I'm blaming the whole me caring what people think on this subject to my old age... I never used to care!

I was and that's it! I tried not to deliberately hurt someones feelings but if I did, I never really cared and just chalked it up to them being weak (nice, right?).

I never succumbed to peer pressure since I really didn't care if they taunted me for not drinking or smokin' up. They never did taunt me but I'm saying if they would have it wouldn't have mattered. So what's changed now?

And over something as stupid!

I'm trying not to get too serious here but I guess you're on for the ride in my growing pains.

As I'm typing this however, I've got to tell you I don't see how I can change! SP and Nancy are right, I would have to completely change who I am.

So, I'm asking now. What things would bother you witnessing? Or do you flirt and think it's harmless?

P.S.
Haters, I love the new look of my blog.
I am not roses and rainbows. I am moody and broody!
You know who you are but shall remain nameless! Especially you, starts with Es and ends with meralda! Yeah uh-huh I'm talking to you! Did you like your tree picture on the side bar?
