[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t know about you, but if I am speaking to someone of the opposite sex & they mention that they have a spouse or significant other, I usually take that as a direct sign they are not flirting w/me.

Does anyone else??[/quote]

Are you single? I never take any man talking to me as flirting because I'm married and therefore I'm not interested. As a result, I don't take anything as "a sign."

I talked to a man last night for an hour on the phone. We had been talking on large group calls on a work project (we work for different firms on different sides of a transaction) and he emailed me asking if I had a minute for a follow-up question. I called him and we discussed the issue and then we discussed our jobs, our spouses, the current administration, etc. It would have been a pleasant date discussion I suppose but there was no "flirting," it was just a nice conversation with a person of the opposite sex. We have a lot in common and enjoyed sharing those things, that's it.

I wonder about the human interactions many of you have on a regular basis if you take every conversation with someone as them flirting with you. [/quote]

I’m married too, but I can tell if someone is flirting with me vs talking.  
Like, I will talk with my co-workers about work, but if we all go out to a happy hour or something, there might be a little flirting.  No one thinks it’s going to go anywhere, but it’s different.  [/quote]

I'm the PP - maybe it depends on how flirting is defined. To me, it's a way of talking with an end game in mind. In that respect, I'm not flirting with anyone except my husband because I'm not trying to sleep with anyone except my husband. I am silly and funny and affectionate and sarcastic with my male friends and if we were single, I could see how one could describe it as flirty, but I'm not and they're not so I don't see it that way.
