There's one post about 'flirty men' but nothing about flirting back.

Are we reading the same thread?

To be fair when men flirt with a woman, they have normally first picked up on signals that she has sent out. I think that out of respect for a partner, people should think about the way they project themselves whilst socialising, and consider the likely responses they will receive. Then avoid doing anything that could be construed as disrespectful.

To be fair, that was the only post I found (admittedly I only looked through the first 5 pages as vestanpance said "earlier on in this thread") that mentioned flirting.

Funnily enough I don't think the ladies earlier on in this thread claiming nights out flirting with strangers before returning home to their loved one would have been glossed over so much had the sexes been reversed. I'm pretty sure that behavior of seeking compliments from the opposite sex coming from a man would be seen as very disrespectful/psychological abuse, not harmless fun.

You seriously think that a bit of innocent flirting that goes no further, equates to someone being very disrespectful and inflicting psychological abuse on their partner. Wow, I have never heard such nonsense.

I think if you are in a relationship with someone, there isn't such a thing as innocent flirting, is there? a person shouldn't be flirting in the first place if they have a partner/spouse, well not in my book.

Disrespectful yes, but psychological abuse no.

The purpose of flirting is to attract another person and make them pay attention to your attractiveness. As Paul Newman said "Why go out for hamburger when you've got steak at home".
