Married but Flirting...no physical contact allowed

I'll pass on that one. Kind of gross! I like being married, wanna stay that way.

I don't think it's appropriate either... and I'm single. Flirting is not innocent.

Why would you feel the need to click on this thread and then proceed to comment? Just curious why people don't just ignore the threads they find inappropriate.

EXACTLY! So annoying. What is the saying? If you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything

Nothing wrong with harmless flirting.. breaks up the monotony of all the logging, counting, obsessing we do. I don't think there's anything wrong with this. The great people and different personalities and the touch of flirting around here is one of the reasons Iove this site! Keeps things interesting and me motivated!

gross

What? I like cream cheese.

Attn: The was no intentional or unintentional flirting contained in this post.

btw - how YOU doin'?

flirting can be fun and harmless... but it can also be easily misconstrued on a forum. a large part of flirting is the banter and intonation and physical clues (facial expression, etc) which means that something said in person while flirting can come across completely different when read on a screen without any of the other clues.

if you want to flirt, flirt... just don't be surprised if one or two people read more into your comments than were intended.

Hopefully enough people have a sense of humour about stuff and just laugh about it though.

It's not? You mean to tell me shooting a smile and hanging on every word of an 80-year-old in a rest home isn't innocent? C'mon, it's fun, and for some people can really brigthen their day. Not every flirty comment is an open invite into someone's bed.

Innocent flirting - making jokes back and forth, etc - is no big deal.

If some people can't stop themselves from taking it further into private, not-so-innocent things then that's their fault and something that would've happened eventually.

To those who don't find it innocent, then don't post. However, I do apply this thought when I see things like that: "Me thinks the lady doth protest too much." In other words, is it because of your own insecurities?

As someone whose spouse took flirting too far by falling in love and having a relationship with that person, HE took it to the extreme. It wasn't the joking around. It was him looking for a relationship.

So, folks, lighten up, have some fun. Life is serious enough as it is and I personally don't feel like being lectured on right vs wrong on a weight loss site where there's a board for FUN AND GAMES that don't HAVE to involve weight loss.

That is all.

OK, i understand that it was just meant to be harmless fun, and I had a little laugh at some of the posts.
What does upset me, is that I feel like I'm being attacked because I stated my opinion. I have seen people torn apart by 'innocent flirting' so of course my first reaction was to be completely offended.

Peace out, Happy flirting :blushing:

flirting is a natural part of life - it actually boost my ego when I see my hubby getting hit on (and flirting right back) and then have him come home and attack me. who cares if he's picturing someone else, cause I do that too sometimes! :devil:

Please dont flirt with us wearing that Little kid profile pic

I love MFP. LOL

While I agree there are fine lines between harmless flirting and other not-so-harmless acts....I don't think anyone on here is trying to bust up all of our relationships. :noway:

I think they are just looking to have some coffee-house type chat and light-hearted fun. :bigsmile: I don't know about anyone else but sometimes, I just need to laugh and joke around....a bit of a break.

Enjoy everyone!! :flowerforyou:

...and much thanks to all the ladies who flirt...to help my fragile male ego.

I've been with my husband since I was a teenager. I doubt I would recognize flirting from others if it hit me in the face while it wore a nametag....
