I’m really interested to hear some opinions and ideas on how you deal with romance between NPCs and PCs.

I have barely any issues with RPing most anything, but approaching the more intimate bits like flirting runs into some mental blocks of mine.

Any input would be appreciated!

Note: Yes, talking to players and establishing expectations, etc. is always the answer. However, I am mainly looking to hear some ideas on how I might change my approach to it, because I’d very much like to be comfortable with all that.

    Yeah, I know, I don’t have to. I see that part of RPing more of a skill-sub-set in acting/improv. I’d like to be able to step outside of my hang up ans do engage with it in a sensible, fun way.

    Like I am working on getting better with voices and recalling them in later sessions. That’s a skill to me. Being able to flirt or throw an angry fit or be compassionate as the situation requires for the NPC are all equal skills in my mind. Some of them I’m decent with, others, like flirting, I can’t quite wrap my head around to get there.
