The Flirting Line

[Treacle]

Where in your opinion would the flirting line be

 

 

That being the point you would cross where it stops being friendly flirting, to the more heavy i want more flirting

 

 

What would you do differently when you've stepped over the line in your opinion.

 

This applies to singletons and marrieds alike

You step over the line if someone's married and you take it seriously.

There are 2 types of flirting, the first is the type you do with friends of the same sex & opposite sex - the type that makes people feel good about themselves and illustrates your interest in what they have to say, showing that they are the only person that you are interested in during that conversation.

 

The second is sexual and in no way appropriate if either party has an SO. there isnt a line for me, sexual flirting isnt acceptable.

Come on now, how many more post are you gonna make reguarding this whole flirting thing going on with your married boss? I really think you're trying hard to justify his flirting actions. You ask lots of questions on the matter (which is fine) but I don't think in your other posts you have heard anything anyone has said.

 

I will go out on a limb here, and say that you like what he is doing. Its already been explained that he has crossed the line from just the pure fact he is married. Not to mention when/if you do not respond, you have said he will up the flirting to get your attention. I'm not sure what else can be said about it, other than, you ignore him, who cares if it makes him flirt more. Or you flirt back, and risk this going to a whole new level, in which if it does, you will have even wose problems going on.

I have never said he was my boss

 

He isn't my boss

 

We don't even work together which i have mentioned before

 

 

This was just a general question and not pointing to anything in particular

Just my curious nature

Ahhh sorry treacle, was thinking it was your boss and he was married. Theres so many post on here thats similar I get confused.

 

 

However I did read in some of your other posts that this man is married. My question to you is, Is this something you enjoy? If you feel you are benefitting in some way from this, then he probably can sense it, will keep doing it, as long as you allow it. He has the power to flirt, you have the power over how you handle that.

 

I think you have several options here. Either ignore him totally. Wheather he ups the flirting or not, still ignore him. Or flirt back,and continue to beat your head against the wall and try to figure out why he is. It matters not why he is, what matters is he is married, and is disrepecting his wife and you by doing it.

There are actually THREE differenttypes if you insist on catergorising thing s like this.

The first type which you describe isnt flirting at all but socialising.

The second type is sexual attraction. It's guys admiring the passing parade or girls throwing thier underwear onto the stage at a rock concert.

The third type is sexual involvement and thats everything form full blown affairs to a couple of strangers engaging in mutual masturbation on the dance floor.

 

And the one thing that the whole issue is absoloutely riddled with is double standards.
