When you enter into a marriage relationship, you agree to make your spouse your one and only. Even though flirting may seem harmless to you at the time, you're being unfaithful to that commitment; it cuts so much deeper than you know into your wife. It can damage relationships more than you would think, plus you will be permanently labeled as a flirt.
God designed marriage relationships to be a man and woman who choose to love each other even when they don't fully feel like it; when you feel the urge to merge with other women, just remember the vows you made on your wedding day to love and cherish your wife "til death do you part!"
God bless you!
P.S. If you were just asking a general question and did not mean yourself, please don't be offended by my answer. I mean "you" in a general way, to all husbands, not just you specifically.

Flirting is probably not the best bet...it can lead someone on, and give them a false idea as to what is really going on.
Now...as for just looking, I think that's ok for the most part. As I like to say, "Just because you're on a diet, doesn't mean you can't look at the buffet." Look, but don't touch. And NEVER tell who you're with that "so and so" is more attractive. Bad move.

No it's not okay, not only are you disrespecting your marriage but you're creating a very uncomfortable workplace environment, especially if someone decides to get a burr up their you know what and file a lawsuit. Better to have plausible deniability than a witness in a harrassment lawsuit.
Why not be an individual and not participate.

There are ALOT of different opinions about this question....
Personally,I dont think it is ok,but I have been with some women who thought it was just fine,of course they also thought it was ok to go to "just lunch",then of course it was ok for text mssgs and emails,,oh yeah and what is a harmless dinner between friends,,oh as long as we're out we should have a drink or two,,hmm,now we're too drunk to drive,so we should spend the night together,,,omg,there's only one bed...but its ok,cause we're just friends........then when she gets home,you wonder why she smells like her man friends cologne........lol
One thing leads to another,,but some think it is ok
I think the best thing to do is to let whomever you atre dating know right up front,if you are ok with "flirting"while in a relationship.....
LOL..sorry if I sound bitter..
I'm a trucker,so losing women while I'm on the road seems to be a job hazard...
thank god I found one who wants to go with me.

Well are you happily married? If so than you should back off, its not good to cheat on other ppl. If your wife finds out You're a goner!!! So I wouldn't take that risk.

I don't think there is a problem with flirting, but it depends on how far the people usually take it.
It's human nature to flirt, whether married people want to admit it or not.
As long as they can keep it at an minimal, there's no harm done.

Honestly, it's not respectful towards your spouse to flirt with others. It's a divorce waiting to happen.

Im not married, but I think that a certain level of flirtiness is okay. Not blatent grabbing or touching type of stuff, more joking around and laughing talking kind of way. If that makes any kind of sense.....Just because you got married does not mean that women or men became unattractive all of a sudden, it just means that you cant sleep with them.

No, not okay. It's as if you aren't committed enough to your marriage and you're still looking. Stay away from that.

Nash, the standard protocol these days is test your new bed while your spouse is away with a fellow co-worker. Being faithful is not the "in" thing any more. :(
