Some NYTimes article I stumbled across:
There were two ways to engage with Iran on its nuclear program, engagement or confrontation, the Iranian Foreign Minister, Ali Akbar Salehi, said in a statement to the Conference on Disarmament here in Geneva.

Think to yourself “If I didn’t like this person, would I be creeped out?”
If the answer is yes, then they are flirting with you.
