that flirted incessantly with other people? I have dated a couple of guys like that and it was always something that hurt very much in spite of my trying to convince myself that it was no big deal.

No I wouldn't.. I think some people think it's harmless and in some cases it may be but when someone is really flirting and not doing the friendly nice that could be misconstrued as flirting, I think it's inconsiderate to their significant other and shows that they'll never really be stable in a relationship...

nope

Jon and I flirt on here all the time but in real life we don't.

I think that's an innocent flirting with an understanding for both of you..

I guess if two people have an understanding and don't take it seriously then it's ok..

The only problem I see is if the ones on the other end take it the wrong way and think the flirting is for real...

Friendly is one thing but flirting is totally another.

Like I say, its OK if I window shop for women. When I am window shopping for boys there is something wrong!

As long as I am looking but not touching there is nothing wrong.

Now acting on another person's attention....

Scandalous. I don't' do it and won't have it done to me.

And, I bet that if you asked Jon to stop or told him it upset you, he would stop.

Yes he would, and so would I if he asked me too. We joke and flirt with people but we make sure the others understand that it is all in fun.

My ex wouldn't stop even though he knew it upset me. But, he was an azz in general.

I hate those guys who have no respect

nope wouldn't happen if they they did that all the time an not pay attention to you at all then its not good

I'm not really sure. I guess it would be alright as long as she went home with me.........

Often, flirting is used to make the other person jealous, which to me, is just playing games..Jealousy has no place in a loving relationship. Neither does dangerous game playing. I would rather you came to me and speak your heart, if there were a problem.

As Joy said if it is the friendly kind of talk that is understandable but out right flirting or getting dirty while they are talking to them. Cause if that is the case then "Houston we have a problem".....

I'm not a jealous type person for I love to talk to people and don't believe in putting a lease on anyone. If they get out of hand I will tell them hey that is a bit much and beyond the call.

Trust is a big thing with me and if I can't trust them to keep it to the friendly talk then I can't trust them to keep their pants zipped...

I don't believe in watching someone 24/7 for I do like my space but I do believe in trusting them to do the right thing and know where their priority's are. If I can't then see ya....

but we was only flirting lol

I really never flirt,,,as for when I am IN a relationship.
And having gone through this,,it is HARD to have your lady spending much time on the puter flirting,,when your NOT and they find themselves innorcent of any harm through THAT..as for ME...
I show THEM..my RESPECT FOR THEM,,,by NOT even caring much at all about the Net,,,or being on it....
Now as to in-person flirting,,,if THEY do MUCH of the touching huging with the same one in my presents then ,,,it would be showing ME a lack of respect for my thoughts of them,,,wink..
I wouldn't be in a relationship long,,if I always felt THEM looking around or BUSY when it came to OUR time together,,
I have never been a real flirty type dude,,,lol
SURE,,on here,,I PLAY A ""LOT"",,but any who know me KNOW,,thats what it is and NOT a REAL HIT-ON THEM,,,
Some guys and gals,,do THIS as the only WAY THEY KNOW,,and thats just sad really,,,for their never have a real true love,,,INSIDE of their hearts to embrace and experience for them selves,,,

If Eileen asked me to stop flirting with anyone at all, there would be a reason for it other than simple jealosy. There have been a couple of times when its happened and I later found out that there was a lot more going on than I first knew about. So I just trust her judgement.
