[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I consider it disrespectful and downright angering to experience when you are the spouse that has to deal with it. I think those who engage are being disrespectful. However, I’ve noticed DCUM doesn’t care in general with flirtation. Me, It’s not cheating but it’s inappropriate. Yes, you are married and not dead  but you are married to 1 woman and need to focus your attention on her and making her feel comfortable. But this is just my humble opinion.[/quote]

I don’t think we’re talking about flirting with someone else in front of your spouse, are we?[/quote]

That is actually what the OP was talking about, so I'd say we are talking about both situations. [/quote]

This is OP- the woman with the boyfriend wasn't me. My question was just about flirting with strangers in bars/clubs, away from your spouse. [/quote]

NP here. I guess my question is why?
Most people go to bars and flirt to pick up someone to sleep with or maybe even date

So why as a committed person are you giving the impression you're available to do these things?

In my view you're doing it because you're a jerk who is actually open to cheating.
Or your a selfish attention seeking person playing on someone else's feelings to get an ego boost [/quote]
I don’t see anything in the OP saying he or she goes to bars to intentionally flirt?

I’ve been married a really long time. If I’m in a bar or restaurant without my spouse and someone flirts or banters with me I may banter back a little bit. Im usually with a friend or friends and I wear a wedding ring so it’s kind of obvious I’m not in the market for sex. This is not a threat to my spouse or marriage. If the shoe is on the other foot, that’s okay too. If one of us has a lighthearted or flirtatious interaction and it carries over into feeling confident about our looks or attractiveness, that in turn carries over into our sex life. This is a good thing.

I’ve noticed that some women in particular take light flirting very seriously, and they sometimes think it means more than it does. If you’re secure in your partnership, it doesn’t mean anything, IME. [/quote]
