Walking the dog is a magnet for women to try and chat you up.

i'm no looker -- i'd like to think i'm not bad -- and i get hit on about once a week, between school events, sport events and work... i think there are a lot of unhappily married women. half the time, i don't realize it until later, sometimes it's blatant. The most flagrant was at an elementary school basketball game which I took off work to attend and a mother of a teammate of DD put her hand on my knee and told me I had beautiful eyes... in front of three or four other team moms, none of whom batted an eyelash. Apparently some wild shit goes on when the rest of us are working.
I am unsure whether the hand on the knee compliment counts as getting hit on. The fact that she did it in front of some other team moms makes me think that she did think your eyes were beautiful while not giving you a sign that she was interested in something more intimate. I would be more inclined to believe she wanted more if she had done this privately.
Most men (and women) mistake someone making a kind gesture toward them as getting hit on. Most of the time, it is just a kind gesture.
Likewise, a snarky gesture may be a come-on. For example, I was at Whole Foods once, trying to figure out how to find the right ingredients for a recipe. A woman watching me struggle said, "Let me help you find the stuff on your list. You are too clueless to do it on your own." And help me she did. First, she helped in the store, and later she provided a lot more help at her place and mine.
a woman putting her hands on a married man's knee and complimenting his physical appearance is... not a hard signal to read. There's no ambiguity there.

At a minimum it was inappropriately flirtatious, though perhaps not a literal invitation to have sex immediately. Certainly inappropriate.

Not DC. Once a month. Ranges from the harmless to the brazen.
My wife recently laughed off an incident and turned to our daughter “the ladies always love your dad.”

He gets hit on while with you? I think women hit on men more than women get hit on
Woman flirt with him while he is with me. Plenty of times at the same event or when we are adjacent (not blatantly a couple) woman will hit on him. Frequently when we are vacation it will happen.
Oh wow I don't think I'd be comfortable with that. Do you get hit on as much and how's his reaction?
I get hit on because I have an hour glass figure with huge boobs. DH doesn’t get jealous. He is confident and knows he does not have anything to worry about.
I love you and you’re huge b00bs. How huge are they…?

Nearly 40, I can't say it's ever happened. I've gotten a compliment on the color of my pull over once. Won't forget that one but it likely doesn't count!

Did you mean Miami? I never noticed women being forward there, except for on woman who seemed to be "a professional" sitting next to me at a bar.
