I mean not cheating, but only innocent flirting. It can be fun and doesn't mean that you plan being unfaithful to your partner.

It is disrespectful to flirt with a woman when you are with another.

I dont mind my boyfriend flirting with other girls, cuz I flirt with guys right in front of him too! Nothing excessive (i.e. touching, flirting ALL night long, etc) of course, but it's definitely a thrill! If I need a bf who doesnt mind me flirting than I cant get mad if he does the same! I actually get sort of turned on by seeing another girl wanting my guy (but knowing she'll never get him lol)!
There is only one exception in my experience where flirting in front of each other can go sour. And that is when one partner does not instill enough love, respect and security into their other partner. If the mood of the relationship is not a balanced, harmonious one where both trust and security are shown and applied, then one or both parties in the relationship will be insecure. In which case, when insecurities are involved a little harmless flirtation can turn into a huge mess!

Not really- I trust my husband (who started out as a boyfriend!) and we both know that our individual personalities are friendly, outgoing, and "flirty". We also are devoted to each other and have no worries about being unfaithful.
However, I think that there is a line that can be crossed- when "fun and flirty" becomes something that makes the partner feel uncomfortable or unsure, then it needs to be looked at and re-evaluated. As always, open communication is the key to keeping these kinds of things fun for everyone and not a problem in the relationship...

Well I am married now and NO if my husband flirted with some chick I would be shooting darts of fire at his head and on the way to scratching the girls eyes out...same goes for when we were dating. And he does not want me flirting either with a guy, talking fine but when it crosses into flirting that's crossing that invisible line and makes things a little blurry about what is ok and what is not. He would probably punch the guy out, regardless of if I started it or not.

I think a good relationship has to do with trust and in that trust men can have a good relationship with a woman and be just friends and vice-versa and sometimes that has to deal with conversation hugging and maybe a kiss occasionally(my husband managed a bar and restaurant where a good portion of the staff were woman and sometimes he needed to be there friends too so there were a few times where there were hugs/kissing I adapted to it because what the girls would tell me about my husband like I was so lucky to have a caring person like him and he was such a great person to work for all people a passionate they just need to know when they have crossed the line, and in the end he loves me,I love him and we have a very trusting relationship-we have been married for 26 years!

I know that I would certainly NOT appreciate my boyfriend flirting with other girls, even if I wasn't around.
No, I wouldn't break up with him over just that, but it's a bit disturbing to watch someone you love dearly acting like you're not the only one, and if he's doing it when I'm not around, well then...how would he like it if I were flirting with other guys when he was not around?
Besides that, if a guy that I knew had a girlfriend (especially if his girlfriend was right there) started flirting with me, I would be disgusted. How rude and thoughtless is that? And if the girl was flirting, too...they shouldn't be together.
Ouch!

Well as you see i'm a girl. And if my man was flirting wit some other girl i'd dump him. When you have a girlfriend you need to put her first and she should be the only one you'd flirt with. Nawmsayinn?

wow, that would be very disrespectful even if it was "innocent". flirting, even if it is intentional or not, innocent or malicious, is still qualified as flirting. we all wouldn't term in that way if that's not what it's supposed to be, right? and if that happens to me, i guess he wouldn't mind if i "innocently" flirt with the guys, too. seriously, if he can do it, i can too-only better!;) besides, that wouldn't be too fair for me and it only shows that he isn't contented with me yet so might as wel get a move on with life and start looking for another guy who'd be willing to keep his eyes fixed on me and me only.

I hated it when my last boyfriend did this. But he was never honest with me and I didn't trust him. The guy I'm with now...I think it's cute to a certain extent. I love it that other women find him attractive. Makes me proud! He knows where the lines are and he's not going to cross them. And I trust him. So, it all depends on the mindset of the woman you're with. If she's ok with it, great. If she's not, don't do it. It's that simple.

I personally would not mind if my boyfriend did some flirting (because like you said, at least they are not cheating), but be as respectful as you can to your girlfriend, and do not do it in front of her. Flirting with other women in front of her will most definetly lead to problems.

Well obviously it doesn't make me happy, but I guess it's just part of a relationship. I mean, if a person is flirting but they don't mean anything by it, then it doesn't really matter. I'm a flirty person and so is my boyfriend. It's not something that makes me happy, but it's no big deal.
