    Flirting isn't cheating.
    It can be the lead up to it, but if that's the case there's nothing usually can do.
    Policing hoes is not recommended.
    However the suggestion that men don't care when their gf/wife flirts with another man is malarkey.:bigsmile:

    I only consider it cheating if he's giving her the D while he's talking to her.

    If we're defining flirting as being a wee bit friendly to the opposite sex or whichever sex you're attracted to, I'm alright with that. But I've found in many of my relationships, that the other person hasn't been quite on the same page as me as to what flirting actually entails.
    If you're talking to someone like you want to have sex with them and you're in a monogamous relationship, male or female, you've crossed the line.
    Perhaps if you're so angry at the reactions of women in your life, you should have a mature conversation with them about what the definition of flirting is to you, and what it is to them.
    A quick example, my boyfriend used to think that asking for nudes wasn't crossing the line, so long as he didn't think the person would actually say yes. I'm less than cool with considering that flirting because people don't always do what you expect them to, and if the woman was to send him nudes, I'd be putting that in the category of cheating.
    Now that we have boundaries, I don't care that he's flirty, I am too. I just don't lead people on or cross the lines that we've set.

    I guess sexting is out.

    This is the correct answer.

    You could always take the Ray Rice approach on things... womp womp.

    They're married now. Black and blue is the color of love apparently. Also, good thing he didn't use a racial slur. He'd of been banned from the NFL instead of getting a two game suspension.
    Don't even get me started.

    B*tches be crazy...

    Like redheads, hairdressers and girls named Tiffany? :laugh: :drinker:

    That's not funny... I once dated a red-headed hairdresser named Tiffany.

    I lost count of how many times my car got keyed and tires got slashed...

    That's what I get for straying into the forbidden zone! :laugh:

    I agree flirting is different for everyone and that's where things get iffy... flirting with others is disrespectful when you're in a relationship but it's def not cheating.
