    There is always a debate of whether innocent flirting is harmless or should still be considered cheating. What do you guys think? Is there such a thing as harmless flirting or should any kind of flirting be considered unacceptable? :confused:

    there are people who are natural flirts... just get to know you significant other more and learn about their habits, talk and figure out where to draw the line... for most people flirting is normal and fine... it's no big deal... don't get so worked up so easily heh...

    OF course there is harmless flirting. You gotta be freaking stupid to think flirting is cheating. I guess, perhaps that comes with age .. I remember seeing a colleague flirting with guys at work so I thought very lowly of her but I learned that was just the ways she socialize .. nothing serious.

    It's like when you hit a store or shop or restaurant, you call the waiter or whomever, len jai or len nui .. stuff like that .. you know .. kinda flirt with them .. tend to you better.

    Depends of the level of flirting. I flirt with girls all the time and my girlfriend knows it and she's ok with it. But there is a limit. Touchy flirting, sex talk flirting...etc Establish that limit and then have fun.

    Whether innocent flirting is harmless or not , it depends on individual's perspective. If you flirt with someone who has a partner and they are upset coz they don't like it, den it might cause harm to their relationship (although you flirt with no intention). BUT if that partner doesn't mind, it wouldn't cause any harm at all. It also depends on how flirty you are

    And whether flirting is considered as cheating, it really depends on the boundaries that you set with your partner. If your partner thinks chatting / sitting very close to a girl/guy is ALSO considered as cheating..den...it is cheating. If your partner thinks flirting such as cosy or kissing other people is acceptable, den it's not considered as cheating at all. SOO it's all depends on you and your partner. I know it's a old fashion way of saying it..but Communication is the key to find out!

    P.S Some girls are very sensitive or get jealous very easily even if you JUST talk to a girl...but some girls won't even care less about it....Not sure what type of girl your partner is.....

    Sorry it's soo long..but hope I answered your question

    Flirting by definition acting and doing something like touching, saying something to provoke sexual advancement for the sake of paving for future sexual acts. Well, if he or she doesn't have a serious relationship, then he or she can flirt all he or she wants. Even if the person has a partner, it's up to the partner to speak up...none of our businesss.

    In reality, people who flirts because he or she wants something for free...like a favorite or manipulate someone to do the work for free, bargin, get a promotion...etc. There is never free flirting for free. You bet he or she wants something in return.

    In short, flirting is always low. He or she just wants to win the popularity contest. But, we as an outsider cannot judge one's behavior. We can say whatever we thinking. That's our opinion. In essence, flirting is harmful not just to a relationship, but the act is really an unfair practice of social behavior.

    No wonder some many pretty girls get LV for free. Now you know!
