    I'd be mad if I saw my bf doing it...therefore I don't with men.

    There's a difference in being nice/playing personality & flirting...I stay away from the latter.

    Flirting is alright I suppose, as long as it doesn't keep going

    Great question. I say, innocent flirting with no strings attached is okay.

    I flirt once in a while. It's nice to have some positive attention from a female once in a while. Being told "rub my feet" and everything you did wrong that day can wear on a person.

    I don't get this. If you look that's one thing, but if you actively flirt I assume you're interested and single (that or you're cheating scum). Beh. Don't waste my time if you're taken. I hate that!

    I don't know if your significant other thinks you're disrespecting her when you do that, but for sure you're disrespecting me!

    I think you're confusing "flirting" and "hitting on". There's a difference.

    Exactly this. The hotter you are the less weird it is.

    Depends on how you define flirting.
    AT the beginning of my relationship I would get upset with my bf because he would be flirting with girls who were approaching him. I learned that he legitimately had NO IDEA they were flirting with him and he's just a nice guy. He's one of those cheeseballs that's always telling lame jokes and whatnot. It's just how he is, so I'm fine with it because even though lots of people consider it "flirty" it's just him being him.

    General rule of thumb is, if you would be bothered by your partner doing something then you shouldn't be doing it.


    I don't flirt. I wouldn't want my fiance to flirt.

    I don't judge people in relationships who do though, to each their own.

    If you're single please do. If you aren't, please don't!

    Hmmm..I'm married. I love looking at the opposite sex, smiling or a grin..no harm done. And if I'm with my hubby and see a nice looking guy I would say "bae did you see the arms on him" we both laugh and then.I say .."he doesn't come close to you daddy" and we both laugh.

    Well... I'm single, so BRING IT ON! lol... But I'd say... what is being said in the flirting? If it is just harmless banter, then that is usually pretty safe... If it will filled with blatant sexual undertones... then that can be out of hand sometimes.

    There is a huge difference between flirting and hitting on someone with the intention of doing more than flattering.

    I don't have issues with joking, complimenting, or in some cases harmless innuendo. If there's no intent, then it isn't an issue.

    I don't want to live my life thinking I am only ever allowed to compliment one person. I also don't think I need to dictate that the one person I am with has to give up all harmless interaction with the opposite sex.

    nothing wrong with that, you both are obviously secure in your relationship and can be open, which is great!! i envy that. Ive dated some super insecure psychos who would probably have stabbed me if i said anything remotely close to that lol.

    no i dont think married or people in a couple should "flirt". it opens a door. i would not like to watch my husband flirt with some other girl. i would never flirt with some guy in turn.

    now joking around with a good friend is different. everyone knows its harmless. its different if you know the person. but even then. a door can be opened. i would never joke around with out my husband being there.

    I think you'll find most women think this way too.

    Depends on the situation. When I bartended I flirted to get bigger tips (hubby would be sitting right there on the end of the bar), but to flirt just out in general public....disrespectful.

    It's such a slippery slope, which is why I avoid it altogether.
