I know that "yaritai" means "I want to do" which can be used for various situations, including "I want to do (him/her)".
For example maybe if I'm looking at a woman flirtatiously on the train and she is giggling with her girlfriends and says "yaritai" it can't always mean "I want to do him" from their point of view.
Maybe they are putting themselves in my shoes and saying it to mean the opposite...that I want to do them?
My Japanese is improving everyday, but sometimes I will hear a full conversation and understand the general meaning but I won't be exactly sure of the context such at this type of situation.
Yes, I know people will say "yaritai" means they could have been talking about walking to do anything such as go to Disneyland or the mall, etc, but I'm saying in obvious moments where you are flirting with women and making eye contact with them and then they say this while checking you out.
