Do you think light flirting is acceptable when in a rel?

[Stark]

I've always wondered what other peoples thoughts are on this. Do you think that when you're with someone that its okay to flirt/be flirted with so long as nothing ever happens, or do you think it's wrong?

 

For me personally I can't ever flirt or be flirted with when I'm with someone. I just don't like leading people on and consider it wrong and if someone flirts with me I end up making it very clear that it makes me uncomfortable and I don't want them to flirt.

 

Likewise, I wish the same back from someone. When I'm with someone I don't want them flirting with other people, even if I know/trust them to know that they would never do something I have the impression it gives off the wrong signals. Also I like a girl who's committed enough to tell a guy straight off that if he's flirting with her she's in a rel and does not want the attention at all and does not relish on it.

 

I've went with some girls who I know would never do nothing but when guys flirt with them they like the attention. Even if they don't flirt back they like the attention they get and because of this still keep it. It drives me mad when this happens as I get a bit insecure of these girls keeping these guys around for attention and I feel like it's a threat if we ever have a fight or something.

 

Whats other peoples limits?

With some people it's a part of their personality. They are trying to get a reaction, either for an ego boost or just to see the other person blush.

 

I have flirted while in a relationship in ways that were looking for trouble, but I have also flirted when it was all in fun. Unfortunately my bf at the time seemed to think that there was always "evil" intentions behind it. He sucked the fun outta everything!

I find it upsetting when a guy flirts with me, and then I find out he flirts with everyone. I also find it upsetting when a guy flirts with me, and then when I flirt back, he mentions that he is married. What's that about?

 

I don't flirt with other guys when I'm in a relationship. I flirt with my boyfriend.

Some people naturally flirt with everyone. Not too big of a deal unless it's heavy flirting and he's really showing interest. In that case, go for it if you're not looking for a relationship
