This was our first home that we were buying and it was a real eye opener. I am surprised by how some women who are salespeople act towards married men bottom line. I was taken aback by how flirtatious in nature she was. I'm not kidding you all when I say that she was laughing so loudy and eagerly with my DH that I could hear her from the back bedroom (where my preschooler ran off too) when she was chatting with my DH in the kitchen. And equally appalled that my DH was happily chatting back and perking up to her flirtatious nature. I have NEVER seen that before in our whole marriage! lol

I'm not saying that my DH caused her divorce, nothing like that at all. I'm simply stating that on her end, it proves to me that she was "going through" something in her own marriage and either innocently or trying to meet a need for (family, closeness, support, proving she still "has it", insert whatever) that she did indeed act that way. And it was inappropriate.

All in all, I'm over it now. It raises some interesting issues and conversations. For example, DH now knows if a salesperson or a coworker acts overly flirty towards him that it's NOT APPROPRIATE to engage back when you are married with children!! To a women's ear you have to say something indirectly to give them a clue that you are married with kids instead of engaging back so they understand. "Oh, my wife will kill me if I'm late picking up my children from the daycare" or " My wife would love that couch". etc... Women understand that kind of talk and I'm had to tell him what he needs to say basically to show a measure of respect.

I’m not sure which post was the initial one but why are you giving so much life to the flirty realtor? Your DH took your concerns into account and stopped flirting back and is now aware. You should look into a sitter or see if one of your parents can help out one weekend so you can go house hunting together. We did a house remodel when the kids were young and it was easier and more of a bonding experience for us not bringing the kids with us when we had to visit the granite shop, cabinet shop etc. If we had to bring them with us, it was either that we switched off so one would look, other had kids, then switch or we each took one. It has to be team you and DH.

So fire her. Realtors suck in general, but realtors who break their own family are an absolute dealbreaker.

I've often wondered if realtors use houses that are "staged" (with nobody living in them, so owner unlikely to return, but they have furniture) for a mid-day illicit rendezvous.

Yes. Curb Your Enthusiasm says so.

Wouldn't being flirty be beneficial to realtor? I've had male realtors being flirty with me, thought it was in the job description.

Maybe if she's trying to get a single man to buy a house, but if it's a married couple her flirting will just irritate the wife.

Get over it ladies, flirting is in a woman's DNA though most of us try to hide it once we get past high school. My DH and I are both in our 60's and I'm amazed how many women 50+ flirt with him even in front of me. Most of them are divorced but some are not. He's very good looking and pretty fit and he was very successful. That plus he's quite friendly and a good conversationalist. I find it a bit annoying but we have a great relationship and our conversations about it are always very funny. He usually concludes the discussion by saying that "the woman needs a good screw" and I say "I agree, but not by you!".

The realtor doesn't seem very bright.
