Whether the man is attractive or unattractive.

Whether it’s wanted or not, basically.

If someone is married nothing like that is innocent fun.

Oops, I was only going off the title. There's no such thing as "innocent flirting" if someone is in a relationship, be it:
- Physical cheating of any kind (sex, kissing, sexual touching, repeated touching of a person you're attracted to, etc.)
- Visual cheating (sexting, posting revealing/sexualized pics on IG, using cam sites, porn, etc.)
- Emotional cheating (flirting, sexual teasing, hiring escorts, leading on opposite-sex "friends" for attention/validation, seeking out validation from the opposite sex on social media, etc.)

Bound to piss off men and women alike with this comment, but I'm telling it like it is. The fact some of the above behaviors are normalized to you does not make them OK.

Would you do it in front of your spouse? If texting or emails, how would you feel if your spouse saw what you sent?

Also, are you giving your best to your spouse or the other person? Who do you dress up for more? Who do you go to for advice or comfort?

This is the correct answer.

Intimate touching.

That’s the line.

The line is where there’s no question about whether something is inappropriate. If you’re worrying about getting too close to a line, you’ve already crossed it.

Yes, this completely. If you would say it or do it in front of your spouse, you’re golden. If you wouldn’t, you’ve crossed the line. (If there’s a question, you’ve also crossed it.)

So if your spouse was sexting with someone that would be ok with you?
