That's flirting. It's designed to protect the person's ego if they guess that their affections are not returned. This case would have been a good example if the op wasn't interested. She could have played it off as trying to win.

    And the human experience as well as range of personalities are incredibly broad. We know someone has a delightfully magical story about their now-spouse playing coy when they first met.

    So, “yes and“ even a wildly cocky person might flirt just because that’s them being them.

    Well said and great point!
