Is there any such thing as harmless flirting when you are married.

Depends on different couples. There are many couples out there who share stories and everything under the sun and moon. They might be interacting like in Facebook or in a forum program like myLot and their spouses know about it ..because the trust is there. I'd say that flirting is subjective. Unless it's purely physical talk and towards a non-healthy one way street towards an extra marital affair , it's not flirting. Different people would have different take on this one I'm sure. It's all in the mind. Some spouses are pretty much comfortable with their partners and they know that their husbands or wives won't steer away no matter what. So that helps. If you are not happy , it's best to communicate with your partner why or what. Feelings should be pretty transparent and a good spouse won't meddle in the affairs of the other because they know what their own spouse is doing and all that. Again , the word trust. Good topic here....keeps my creative thoughts flowing.

I don't think there's harmless flirting. Regardless what you say as long as you keep on playing with fire, you will be burned. I have always wondered why people try to flirt when they're already married or attached to someone. I mean, why don't they just flirt with that someone they love? why the need for attention from someone else? In my line of work, I get to meet a lot of married men. It's actually dangerous because there are those men who are obviously dissatisfied with their married life and seem to think that whatever their wives don't see won't hurt the marriage. It's difficult because I cannot be rude with them because they are my clients. Though I always make sure that I let them meet my partner and know my partner so that they would know that though I'm not yet married - I am attached. I just wish that some girls would be stronger. There are a lot of those women who for some reason can't get the point that these men are already attached. They say it's nothing, it's just fun then after a few months or years they'd claim they're in love with this man and that he's ready to leave his wife - I mean, you already know this guy is married, I do you need to flirt in the first place? I wouldn't be happy if my partner flirts with other women. Just the thought of him doing such makes my heart break. I hope that girls understand the limitations they should practice when handling men who are attached. Regardless what they say, I would always blame the girl more than the men. Nobody would cheat if nobody would allow it in the first place. Have a great MyLot experience!

No there is not such a thing. I don't think there is such a thing as 'harmless flirting' even when you are single.

hi, flirting is everywhere and they scattered many of them,what ever married or single or committed they can flirt it,of course if someone flirt my boyfriend i will feel angry and jealous.

Flirting is flirting. Harmless flirting will only turn into a major problem over time. If your partner flirts that tells me they are not that into you. They are more interested in the other person. Danger is what it is. If your partner flirts, put an end to it right away, otherwise there will be big problems on the rise.

Were all human and have te tendancy to flirt weather married or not, it's human nature.. I think flirting is harmless as long as it don't go any further than flirting. If I had a mate and caught him flirting yes I would get jelous but I see it as he is coming home with me. If a person is going to flrt they shouldn't do it in front of their mate since it will hurt their feelings. Flirting online is a whole different all game and could get out of line.

Personally, flirting is flirting. I don't really believe that there is such a thing as harmless flirting. No matter the reason for it, whether it was intentional or not, harmless or not, it's still flirting.

I am a bit old fashioned and I feel that 'harmless flirting' is a oxymoron. They don't go hand in hand. I think it is disrespectful for someone who is in a committed relationship to flirt at all. Maybe now days it doesn't matter but to this girl it certainly does. Why be in a committed relationship and be looking fondly elsewhere?

I learned a lesson on this stuff joystick. I used to "flirt" online hahaha i thought it was harmless, well for me it was harmless.. it was like a jolt of confidence plus he was such a nice guy, i would date him for real if i was single..and he was so good looking ( stop! i am remembering him again haha) but yes he was that tempting. But my hubby found out and he got mad - freakin mad.. but it was all friendship thingie..just that it got a little flirting in it..so he got mad..and well i stopped and have not talk to that guy for months now. so sad i lost a friend, he was so nice he listened to me and we have same interests but hten i had to choose. So there, there is not such thing as harmless flirting ok? But yes i am a very jealous person, hahaha i used to remember my husband having this "bestfriend" and she female and i would often get mad too whenever they would communicate. So it worked both ways for us, he stopped and i stopped so things are better for us now.

when you are married you are supposed to be loyal and true to your spouse. flirting of any kind is usually not harmless. it is disrepectful to you, your spouse and the one that you are flirting with.

Okay, before I start I just want to emphasize here that I am from the "old school'. On this note, for me flirting for whatever purpose or reason is still flirting.A married person should be faithful to her partner on all accounts..and this goes on how to be faithful in the mind too. I wouldn't do flirting unless at the back of my mind, I really want to catch some attention.But if I'm married I do not need to catch some attention..for I would surely get a bunch of it from my partner,isn't it? And I expect the same from my partner. A flirty husband is simply called, a womanizer. A flirty wife, is simply called..( i don't want to say it,not proper hehe) (^_^)

To even think about doing it is already harmful, I believe. It's never right to play around with someone's feelings. If my boyfriend did that to a friend of his, it would surely create a lot of awkwardness in the future, especially when I'm around and if I find out that my boyfriend flirted with another girl, that would surely be harmful, because I'm gonna beat him to a pulp!

There is not such a thing as harmless flirting. If your husband, wife flirts with someone else it's obvious that that person does not love anymore his half. If you have another opinion than me, think: first is an harmless flirting.. then.. what next? harmless dating, harmless touching and kissing? If you decide to marry someone you do it if you are sure that you will love and respect your half forever.. My opinion! :)

I don't think there's something called harmless flirting.Relationship needs loyalty and trust to be successful. Once one party is flirting whether it's online or offline, it's still considered cheating. When someone cheats you;it always hurt no matter how you deny it.It will be the start of losing trust.Once trust is lost,it will lead to a relationship turmoil.

Hi joy, I would not be happy either. However, in these times of uncertain relationship it is easy to fall for another in spite of the commitments we made. Just look at the rate of separations and divorces all over the place. That, my friend, is just the tip of the iceberg of the larger phenomena and one of them is the casual flirting that leads to more serious consequences. I, may not be immune to it, being a married father of two kids, I still get the attention of some girls around and I really like the interaction. For the moment though, what is holding me back of those two children being pictured without their father, so sad and alone. It is really a dangerous thing, and if one plays with it without caution, could explode in one's face without a moment's warning.
