I have a general answer for this, its wrong cause flirting can give the false signals, and can make the other person think you like them. I agree to the you can look, everyone looks, where all human. But hands on flirting like some people do, no.
It's natural to flirt. As long as you don't act on it or do anything that your partner finds uncomfortable.
My fiancee understands and even appreciates that I am a red-blooded man who's going to find women sexy. I've made it completely clear that I'm never going to cheat on her, so she has no reason to be jealous.
As I say to her:
"I may be on a diet, but I can still read the menu."
to pass off emotional responses to someone who you have no vested interest in is a lie to yourself as well as your "so-called" loved one. bet you wouldn't like it if they did the same behind your back??
I checked no it's wrong but it really depend on the people involved. I know I wouldn't have liked my wife flirting when we were dating or up until she was 60. However I am 78 and she is 74 so I don't think either one of us would notice if it happened now . LOL
Everyone flirts in some way or another. Its human nature. There is a definite line that can be crossed though...I always turn the table when I flirt or am flirted with. If I were to get mad at my girlfriend in the same situation then I will stop it short, and respectfully let them know that I have a girlfriend that I am more than happy with. If they continue to flirt, then they do not respect my relationship, nor my girlfriend, and I avoid their contact....
