Unintentional flirting?

    I'm in a long distance relationship since January, everything seems to be going well. I went out with my friends last weekend and met a guy there who seemed really nice and friendly. We got on well and I was chatting to him a lot. I guess there was a level of attraction there as well, a sort of 'click' but as I have a bf I thought nothing of it. I heard from a mutual friend today that he really fancies me and thought I was flirting with him, as did our friend. I was a bit shocked as I thought I was just being friendly. I feel really bad now. How should I have acted? If I WAS a bit flirty, does that mean subconsciously that my bf isn;t the one for me? Help!!

    This is one of my favourite bugbears.... Why on earth is flirting something you associate with negativity and not being in to your boyfriend ?
    Flirting with men and women is one of the most delightful and enjoyable and human experiences in life and I believe it is a sad sad day when people feel they have to stop, for the sake of their partner.
    When we fall in love and/or get get married it should not be the end of our interaction with other people. How tragic is that ! It should be the beginning of a new life where we put one person at the top of our agenda, but not to the complete exclusion of all of the human race.
    I have always enjoyed meeting ladies who have been single, attached or married, but who still enjoy flirting. I have always flirt with ladies of all adult ages. Flirting is not an invitation to sex, it is a little piece of enjoyable electricity between a man and a women who find that they like each other, to an extent usually limited to that moment in time. Nothing more, nothing less.

    You should enjoy the fact that a man likes you and take it for what it is, one of the great pleasures in life. It has absolutely nothing to do with how you feel for your bf, and has absolutely nothing to do with him, period. It is about you and your life as a woman.

    All the best.
