    I'm married, but I still playfully flirt with my girl friends (we always have). I am bi, but none of them are bi or gay except one. I don't flirt with exes (that just seems like a bad idea for everyone). I don't really flirt with someone unless I know them well. If a stranger tried flirting with me there'd probably be much eye rolling. Mr. Pineapple isn't really social or flirty in general. I feel like a PM for flirting purposes only is shady. If it's in the middle of another conversation and doesn't really go anywhere, then I'd take it as harmless.

    Flirting is fun but you have to be good at it....wit and charm and bit of sass is required....not just some tired old "hey baby, you're hot" or "what are you wearing today?" If you're going to make the effort then, make the darn effort....ya know?

    I know what he meant ,agreed with Islander. Know your boundaries! If you are not "committed" then i guess there aren't any ;)

    Be warned of one thing...I dont know how much weight each of you has to lose but significant weight loss can be a curse as well as a blessing...When someone loses weight and starts getting attention from the opposite sex that they havent had before, it can go to one's head and lead to issues... I speak from experience. ;)

    I get lots of Attention and my wife knows it ,but i don't allow it to get to my head!!!
    Self-control

    If you find yourself hiding or deleting things you've done or said, ask yourself why... it's that simple :)

    flirting is harmless, its a way of having a laugh and getting/giving some compliments and ego boosting. However you have to find the line!

    True!

    All true. This was never about seeing how far I could push anything. I'm in love with my Beautiful wife. There not another woman in here worth risking her. I'm sorry if I didn't make that clear.

    I prefer women to where folly covering clothes and not speak unless asked to. Keep us men from having to deal with flirty interactions and forbidden desires.

    Many times I have been called a flirt. I am not a flirt, but I am very friendly........... I draw the line at sexual innuendos as as far as I am concerned that, is indeed flirting. If someone flirts with a taken person, it is just as much the said 'taken' persons responsibility to say something like "that is inappropriate, and I don't feel good about it as I am committed to someone" ahhh JMO :o

    If you have to delete/hide messages, you're crossing the line. If you wouldn't respond in the same way if your SO was in the room, you're crossing the line.

    I get a lot of pervy messages which is mostly the reason I've been staying away from the forums. I'm single and don't have anyone to answer to, however some guys are just straight up creeps.

    I joke around too. But I'm new to MFP and I see people all over the forums talking in ways that would make me uncomfortable if it was geared towards me or my SO

    Perhaps those people you see flirting are single (as I am). In any event, what others do is up to them. You do you and I will do me.

    I think there should be a new thread titled "married people firting with married people". Just so everyone knows who is who

    if you and your significant other are ok with it, then have at it. If you feel the need to hide it from them, then seems there might be something wrong.

    The way some flirt here would be a awesomely funny and tragic thing to watch in real life.

    I would say the majority of the threads in this specific forum lead to quite a bit of flirting. Most is innocent, but when it moves to private messages that's when it could potentially move to something more.

    If both are single, then who cares? But like people have said before, if you have to delete the messages to "hide" them, then you're doing something wrong.

    I said this before, this site seems sometimes no different than an online dating site. As long as both people "flirting" are 18+ and single, then no harm, no foul.

    This is a touchy topic to me. I'm single, I'm 40 and I have a flirty personality...men seem to gravitate to me...specifically married men...it happens all the time. I don't know if I'm too nice or what....some light flirting is fine but don't tell me you're going to leave your wife for me, or that you could fall for me, or whatever else I've heard. I'm not going to save you from your miserable marriage...btw if you're that miserable get out!

    I guess I do it for validation... that doesn't make it right, we're only human. I know who I share my bed with. I compare it to crushing on a celebrity that has no intention on making me her exclusive partner.

    My rule of thumb is if my husband did the same thing would I be upset? If the answer is yes then I don't do it.
