Is it not then wrong for someone to flirt with a person. Have that person become infatuated with the flirter then flirt with other people and break said person's heart?"


I don't think any man, and certainly no gentleman, has the "right" to force a woman to do anything. His opinions count for exactly zero. Also, I really don't think that anyone's heart can be broken just by flirting. Men (me included) are quite capable of falling head over heels over a woman on no encouragement at all, I and I do not feel that the woman has any guilt in the matter, unless she had clearly led him on. So, Eternity, I have seen some of your posts and do feel that you are flirtatious, but I have not seen anything you need to feel guilty about. Certainly not to allow any man to 'force"you to do anything that you dont want to do.
You understood me perfectly hun. Thank you. Galadria is v. lucky [img]smile.gif[/img] And I lurve ur sig! Give my love to Galadria. I miss her! [img]graemlins/kiss.gif[/img] As for me [img]graemlins/lovestory.gif[/img] I am not feeling forced or anything but I do wonder about how my behavious may be taken and would like to do my best to prevent myself from hurting anyone.

What is defined as clearly leading on though? Usually on a night out most guys judgements are clouded by alcohol.

How much do you think people can excuse their behaviour with the excuse of alcohol?
