When it comes to seduction the Germans have a bit of a reputation, or is it that they have no reputation? Women don't like to be treated as an easy catch and often find it awkward being invited for a drink. Men are not known for their gentlemanly behaviour.
It would seem that flirtation and seduction are not what Germans are most skilled at. Either they get straight to the point or they talk about serious topics and professional aspirations. However, real friendship can blossom between men and women even if the flirting leads to no success.
These are the words to watch out for.

(* = familiar, ** = very familiar, *** = vulgar, s = slang, Lit. = Literally)
