I don't think its a sin, but i would imagine that some people see it as such depending on their beliefs. To me, it is a text-based conversation and as such people can read into it whatever they choose. An innocuous comment could be read either way. I can chat to people online without being serious, heck i usually chat to people in real life without being serious. I'm a generally light-hearted person.

If nothing happen just you chat or talking in the net i think is not a sin, but it will be called cheating to your partner if you make any relationship to the person you meet in the net.

If by flirting you mean teasing a bit a friend and you don't mean any harm or more extras intended what's wrong in it? Some people are natural flirts. They are flirtatious with anyone and anybody because it is in their nature. If you don't cross the limit I don't see that it is a sin and no it is not cheating.

H[i]i bombshell, hmmm...for me when your purpose of flirting is to attract the person, YES, it is a sin to your partner since you are committed! But, there are flirting where the person just want to be friend and get the attention and nothing else, then it will be fine when we only want to draw friendship! Just my personal view![/i]

Hi Bombshell, if the person is upfront right from the beginning that they are married and it is just friendly banter but if not I feel it is wrong. Huggles. Ellie :D

It is if it is done in secret in my opinion. If you are open about it and your partner is fully aware that this is what is happening then each to their own! But if someone is doing it behind their partner's back and saying things that they would not wish for their partner to see then I would consider this a definitely bad thing to be doing. I wouldn't go as far as saying that it would be cheating but it's close!

Yes. I would consider flirting online with others cheating. There is no need to flirt with others if you are already in a relationship, whether it is online or not.

Yes, for me it is. I take my vows very seriously and I would not want my husband doing it behind my back also. Once you are committed, you should stick to it. Temptation is very bad so you must be able to avoid it at any rate.

flirting in itself i snot a problem as long as you keep it light and fun. it is a great way to meet people and everyone likes to hear nice things and feel flattered. However you must not cross the line of innocent flirting otherwise you are cheating even if it is only in the mind then it is still cheating because the mind plays out what you wish to do in real.

Yes, I do consider flirting with online friends to be cheating. Why? because if it is easy to flirt with someone you have never met online. It would just be as easy to start flirting with someone in some dive. Such as a bar. When you marry or get engaged to someone, you swear your life to that one person. And only to that one person. When you stray, even to flirt. It turns in to one big game to see what else you get can a way with. Why take that chance?

I do considered it as cheating to a partner if they will be online and flirting with friends around the net without my knowledge but if I am sitting with my partner for joking then that would be fine.....

sometimes it is also our culture that would tend to do things because here in my country Kuwait it is already considered as cheating he he he and I am also aware of it but still I do.

Hi, I don't think that flirting with online friends must be considered as sin or cheating.. I think that it's only a way to have fun with the other person.. I do flirt a lot and I don't believe that I'm cheating.

I don't think so. the people you meet here are the same people you meet in real life and consider them friends. Now if you get involved with someone here, it's you personal choice. Only you can tell whether it is cheating or not. With all the limitations, it's pretty hard to move on and become something more than flirting. But sometimes you need to get out of the box and prove yourself to someone here that you may be "it".

I don't think it is. It's when you act on it (for example, meeting someplace later or getting his/her cell phone number) that it becomes a sin. BTW, can I get your email address? You look pretty sexy in your avatar. (See what I mean?)
