what about if you're going out with someone. Why is it bad if the other person is taken? Because you might be tempting the other person? or because u might get into trouble?

Wouldn't the guys just assume that you want everyone to know u like him and that he's "your property" ?

Aviendha.
ahh.. but so many are not married, what would they do? [img]graemlins/confused2.gif[/img]

Charean I think you may be right. At this age most seem to be hopeful and brash more than anything else.

Sir_Tainly! control yourself young man! [img]graemlins/whip.gif[/img]

Flirting is all relative. I mean if u do more than most girls the guy has experienced do then experience tells him you are flirting. I trust you darling so have fun!
Darling! ~poutz~ [img]graemlins/kiss.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/kiss.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/lovestory.gif[/img] I don't see why u are! [img]graemlins/docheart.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/someoddthing.gif[/img]

Have fun?! I've got exams and the head just rang to get me into school to tell me off for looking at IW in school. On the other hand... are you coming down now then?

Well this topic started out as what did we think constituted flirting.

There are a couple girls at the local grocery story who have a habit of squeesing their breasts together emphasizing their cleavage and smiling alot more than they do at the other customers whenever I get in line. Batting the eyelashes. Asking what im doing tonight. Thats definitely flirting. [img]smile.gif[/img] Flattering but they are more than just a little too young for me even if I werent married. :

Hmmm... you know, you may just be right, too After all, every person is entitled to his or her opinion [img]smile.gif[/img] In my case, everyone has already been gossiping about the male colleague going out with another female colleague, so once or twice I have caught others staring at me (in that "why are you talking to him?" or "don't you know he's taken?" way) while I talked to the guy. To which, I inwardly thought, let the rumour mongers be [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Ultimately, it doesn't matter what others think. As long as you've a clear conscience and engage in wholesome fun, who are others to judge?

Cloudy, I have had the (mis)fortune of being present at several of those men-bashing conversations, and when I protested that I didn't do any of "those things" (the one about asking directions particularly irritates me - I always stop and ask for directions), only to be patted and told, "not you, sweetie," or words to that effect. But, Lord knows, they do exist, Galadria's ex being a notable example, I am told.
Attalus you're just being paranoid now Larry just happens to be an articulate guy [img]smile.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] my dad's another of those machos I'm sure most of my dad's generation in China are. They're brought up with the whole man=macho male idea, i.e. woman should cook clean and do washing etc for them.

It's ok, Attalus I caught him with Spree sometime ago [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Never mind, that just gives me more reason to have warm up my other relationship over at Hazardous Times [img]graemlins/evilhaha.gif[/img]
