  • PLEASE do NOT flirt with someone else, even with your friend's blessing. Her husband, if not 'in on it' will wonder what the h..l is going on, you will certainly lose his respect and other guys he may tell, and if he is 'in on it' your husband may quite likely find out about it in the future.

    You are doing great, you dont play games, good on you.

    Men will alwayts flirt when given the opportunity. Its just that 99/100 you dont hear it. Often men find domesticity extremely boring and like to prove they still have it. I think if you interviewed 100 men and offered them a one night fling with a woman half their age with a cast iron guarantee they wouldnt get caught or feel guilt afterwards then the majority would take it. I know the majority of my friends would!

    But in the real world , Lets face it how many 25 year old girls would find a 51 year old man attractive? She was probably repulsed but kind enough to listen to the banter as he has a senior position to her.

    I have been on lads "golfing holidays" where the lads on the phones to thier OH saying they are having a quiet drink in the hotel bar before an early night when really they are waiting for a taxi to take them to the local club! You will however be pleased to know that very few have any success!

    Men still think we are all 21 and in our prime where the reality is most are overweight and osing their hair! Not an ideal prospect for a 25 year old girl in her prime!

    I wouldnt worry about it to be honest
  • I know I was thinking that just because I think OH is attractive a girl of that age may just think 'old grey haired man'! but then again he does look similar to George Clooney he does get a lot of attention, it just never bothered me before, but hearing him say things just struck a nerve! All I can say is swiss69 you are probably spot on with your observations!
