How Do You Handle Your Partner's Flirting Activities?

Aha! I don't wanna put anyone on the spot, and I do not point to anyone here. But this is a general topic that is applicable to anyone, MAN or WOMAN, here, there, and everywhere....

Let's face it! For once in our lives, (and who knows more) we've been linked to and with someone who just loves to "flirt" ..And it doesn't matter if the person is your sweetheart or a suitor. Sometimes, out of nowhere, the same person can be seen flirting with other wo/men and seem to enjoy every attention s/he is getting from the opposite gender...Tsk!tsk!tsk!...I've witnessed in real life how some men are obviously staring at other sexy women and even hug and are very touchy with them right in front of their respective dates..They even generously "praise" them expressing all their admiration for them. Some married men would even joke "If only I am not married, I'd like to be with you."....

On the other hand, women can be as equally guilty for being flirtatious, themselves. They do the same thing men do. To some, they may consider flirting as part of their daily lives and may appear tolerant to it, but in most cases, it brings the GREEN MONSTER out of those who abhor the idea of having their partners engage in that insensitive activity. Worse, it puts a strain on the relationship, specially when the ego gets affected. Of course, we know about the "double standard(s)" right? Mostly, it's okay for men to do that, but for women? naaaaaaaahhhhh!

Let's not go very far...Flirting is openly observed here on this website. It's in the chatrooms, groups (before), and bloglandia. I guess, this is the reason why most of the couples who've met and eventually got hooked here, chose to leave, and opted to continue their romance off screen. It's understandable. It takes off pressure and paranoia from both sides. Believe me, when the Green Monster Strikes, one can have as many enemies all at the same time. FFF becomes a small world, and everyone is after other people's business. The bigger your network, the higher the risk of destroying your relationship. After all, NOT everybody can keep a secret..

Ouchhhhhhh! I'm a flirt, I'm a flirt. I'm a flirt. And everybody knows it. Sometimes I don't know how she can handle it. She already said that it's up to me to change, she won't pressure me to change. Guess she's just too understanding.

In the same token I know lots of guys flirt with her. I feel it's ok if she flirts back if it's just in the website, well on second thought maybe even during an EB. I am secure in knowing she and I won't jeopardize our relationship because of this. When the monster comes up, we'll give it a good whack and we'll learn something we did not experience before.

I think the malice in flirting is in the observer, not on the flirt. Of course there those who take advantage of the flirtation. It's up to us to hold them at bay,

bwahahahahha...i have to leave chat so i can comment here...the photo is absolutely fab!

now, about online flirting ...i would be a total hypocrite if i would say i don't really mind my man flirting online...but i won't stop him or make a big deal out of it...i reckoned it's good "exercise" and "test" for both of us...we have enough trust and respect for each other that we both know how and when to draw the line

i'd probably raise hell tho' if i catch him being rude or obscene to other women

now, what am i talking about ...i've no man ...and i'm so withered and old

This is ME...I don't need your approval...
