But anything you read say that simple flirting is harmless. Now I'm not talking about going out and batting your eyelashes at another guy and putting your hands all over him, but even being friendly and smiling and laughing at someone elses jokes can be considered flirting. The important thing in any relationship is know who you are going home with or to each night. This trade show I just went to with hubby a few weeks ago, what I was doing with his companies suppliers could have been considered flirting, simply because I was being friendly and smiling and wasnt stiff if one of them hugged me or gave me a kiss on the cheek. But that was all it was. I need to look up this article I was reading a few months ago where it was talking about flirting and marriage. But the basic overlook of the article was light simple flirting can be vital to a relationship b/c it keeps things fresh. It said never take flirting to the point of making your spouse jealous. It also stated that flirting is just a simple part of human nature and some people do it without realizing it. Not putting anyone down, but most of the casual banter in here between the men and the women can be considered flirting. And in anyone I've ever asked, a strictly online relationship is just as damaging to a relationship and can be considered cheating as much as any physical relationship. So if you feel flirting is wrong, then when you are online you should watch your comments (not directed at you AJ, just a generalization). A couple weeks ago when Tim told David and I to get a room, we were flirting with each other, but not in a way that either of our spouses would probably think was wrong. Therefore it is harmless.

In my opinion YES...
how is flirting harmless?  I guess it depends on your hubby.  If he does not mind then I guess it is okay but personally I would not do it and it would hurt my feeling if my SO did it.
 
If I feel the need to flirt I flirt with Jen, that is the truth.  If I feel the need for a change in our routine, we will go somewhere different and have a date.

So when I'm out with friends or even hubby, and I'm just harmlessly flirting, then I'm doing wrong and showing I'm not cherishing my husband, even though he's the one I go home with/to at night and the only one I ever want to be with sexually.

My personal thoughts:  I just don't think it is even okay to go out and "flirt" and carry on.  That is putting attention that I feel is appropriate to another woman other then your spouse.  Can you do that and still show you are cherishing?

No, not smart but honest!  When my wife and I split, it was hard for both of us.  We tried to fix things, but it just wasn't there for us anymore.  We just both got lost in our careers.  Don't know exactly when it happened, but it happened.  We are still very close and great friends.  We even go out to dinner every now and then and have a great time, of course we have a daughter that drives us both crazy.  LOL  I know and go out with a lot of guys whose wives want them to go out and play and give them the space to do those things.  Not one of them in that kind of marriage has ever cheated as far as I know.  It's all trust!  Oh, they flirt and carry on, but go home to their wives with open arms.
