    I don't think its nessecarily wrong to flirt with them, but to do anything else - well that depends on your own sense of right/wrong.

    Personally I wouldn't :)

    me in the shadows? If that is so, why am I the dumper? and never the dumpee?

    or maybe we should talk about my sex count? not that I am proud of that by the way.. just proving a point.

    again, don't hate the playa.. hate the game

    I didn't start the thread. I just posted what he wanted to know. therefore, take the little "god given right" card, and sit on it and rotate.. nuff said'..

    If you're partner knows that you love him/her than there should be no prob flirting with the other sex. And yes, before anyone asks I am a virgin and an idiot. Ohhh cruel world, take me out to the pasture and shot me.:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 857 ✭✭✭Corega


    I don't have any problem with flirting whatsoever and casual sex, although what I can't stand is to be completely led on :eek:

    Zaigon I have no problem whatsever with your behaviour although I think you have the wrong attitude the way you're going about it, flaunting it like a little child who's a faster runner than some other kid on the block or whatnot.

    I have a few friends that have had long term gf's, the sluts, the dark horse etc..... to each their own but there is still quite simply nothing more aggitating than a tease imho :p

    There are really different levels of flirting, ranging from an occasional glance, an innuendo-laden comment to semi-intimate contact.

    In the former case, although it might be frowned upon if one of the people involved is in a relationship, I think it's just a little (relatively) harmless fun, and two people just having a laugh really.

    The latter case, however is IMO borderline cheating. Yes I know it's not *really* doing anything per se, but it is still more intimate than just joking around and creating a little sexual tension (always helps to get you through the day :) )

    I'm insinuating that the closest he ever got to a woman was in the bushes outside her bedroom window... or whilst hiding in the shadows. ;)

    No you didn't. JOOROWNED asked about attitudes towards flirting. You just regaled us with what an incarnation of Valmont you are. And tried just a bit too hard to do so at that.

    Never been caught? Can’t have had too many in the shadows or had them there too long.

    Always the dumper, never the dumpee? Really, you have to be pretty dumb to pride yourself on the hassle (and occasional projectiles) that come from dumping someone.

    Your sex count? You still keep count? lol – there’s no challenge in simple volume.

    Don’t bother complaining about ‘the game’ until you learn how to play it boy.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,648 ✭✭✭smiles


    I'm a flirt, natural and usually I dont even notice i'm doing it, it's part of my personality, and yes it is fun :)

    But as for cheating? Out of the question, i mean whats the point?

    << Fio >>


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,633 ✭✭✭stormkeeper


    Imo, there's nothing wrong with flirting... I'm sure a good few people do it without realising and it's all a bit of fun anyway and as one of my friends say (or something along these lines): It doesn't matter whether they're single or not... Flirt! :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9 Attitude


    Ok, If your in a relationship with someone its either
    1) Long term Love-(or whatever you wanna refer to it as)
    -OR-
    2) Its for the sex....

    SOOO if its #1 then WHATS THE POINT?!?! of flirting with someone else?!?!When ur Obviously not in it JUST for the sex...
    ...and if its #2 then well...thats just low...
    Thats my opinion finished...
    :cool:

    I have to say I'm a lot like smiles here, I don't see anything wrong with a bit of verbal innuendo as long as everyone knows that's all it is, as for cheating on someone, I would loose all respect for myself if I did that, self respect is hard to get back once you loose it.

    Zaigon I can only hope you are about 12 and have to grow up yet...
    being able to pick someone up of a night is a very easy thing to do once they've had a few drinks on them, but keeping a relationship for more than 5 mins, now that's an achievement!

    Same as Fi. I don't intentionally flirt with anyone, I'm just a nice person ;)

    I'm in a long-term serious relationship, I'd never cheat though. That's just low.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,274 ✭✭✭Monty - the one and only


    Zaigon I happened to miss your ealier posts, continue posting here with that attitude, and you will find those posts disappearing

    take this as your only warning

    Are you really sure that you should be proud of that little fact Zaigon?? I mean, all it shows is:
    a) you have no respect for the opposite sex - good luck in later life so
    b) you are an idiot.

    As bsomeone else already posted, the real skill is not to see who dumps who first, but if you can make a relationship last beyond the next 5 mins, which you evidently cannot.

    or maybe we should talk about my sex count? not that I am proud of that by the way.. just proving a point.

    Well, first of all, you ARE "proud" of it since yoiu're boasting about it :rolleyes:

    And secondly, either you don't have a sex count (becayuse you're trying to show how manly you are), or else you have yet to discover what the flup those two words mean.

    here's a WILD idea for you - find someone that you fall in love with, want to spend the rest of your life with them - and try keeping count. It wont matter

    Hmm, are these the only options? What do other ppl think?

    I don't think they're the only ones myself...

    Many ppl, including myself, flirt for fun. Outrageously at that. Not to be taken seriously as it’s not sexually motivated (indeed if one was truly intended seducing the other party, flirting outrageously is the last thing one would do).

    If we dont like what we are reading.....it means we are already reading it.........so telling us not to read something after we have read it makes my head hurt!!!

    well it was something like that anyway.........you get the idea


    As for the question......I'm not a flirt, but I will do it with friends for a laugh. As for cheating on someone, I think that is way outa line.

    Flirting is fun, have to say and weather or not your in a relationship everyone likes to flirt and be flirted with, the only times you have problems is when one or both persons wants to take the flirting to another leve


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 875 ✭✭✭EvilGeorge


    So horndog2, in your experience , which country has the best women for flirting with ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,389 ✭✭✭✭Saruman


    oh here we go! No more German women with hairy armpits Horndog or you will get banned again!

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11 horndog 2


    the US the women there love it and proberly the irish charm dose wonders as well,
    But to be honest it dosent matter where you flirt as long as the women in question likes what your doing and how your going about it.
    Flirting with most if not all people is the prlude to romance unless the parties involved set and know the boundries to the limit of there flirting
    I say the US women are the best as they love to flirt and are 8 out of 10 times willing to push the flirting to the limit and more


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11 horndog 2


    hey Saraman, it wasnt the hairy arm pits that got me in trouble before it was the voting buttons that I put in.
    and for those who dont know what were on about
    The Question was posed by a person before me weather or not German women shaved under there arm pits


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 875 ✭✭✭EvilGeorge


    So tell that story about the your visit to Russia again :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9 DonkeysLad


    Im with azizil on this one, empty vessels make the most noise ! people who brag about it are usually making it up to impress someone. I say if it feels right at the time, go for it. Live for the moment if you like.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11 horndog 2


    dont think its fair on those who havent heard the story so just for you evil george
    as i said previously we were discussing weather german women shaved under there arm pits
    we then got moderated and changed the subject to russian women did or dint shave under there arm pits?
    I told Saraman of the time I was in Russia, and having drank half a bottle of vodka got the courage up and asked a russian women who could speak English well weather or not Russian women did or didnt shave under there arm pits?
    Which she informedf me that they didnt and also suffered from alot of body hair.
    At this point I was gratful Id only drank half a bottle of Vodka but asked the stupid question of how far did the body hair go to?
    Which she informed me...
    Right down to her bollox.......


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,093 ✭✭✭Static M.e.


    Flirting is all good and fun when no one feels bad and its not to
    the detriment of your gf /bf

    Supposidly I flirt alot , I dont notice it afik its just my personality
    but if the girlfriend got annoyed even slightly id quit it straight
    away because the bottem line is why do something to someone
    if you wouldnt like it done to your-self, besides im a jealous
    ****er...so i know what its like

    One nighters are easy , anyone can pick up a slapper/manhoare
    but its good relationships that seperate the men from the mice,
    thats where the work comes in

    Just my two Yoyos

    Thanks - I'm fulfilled.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9 DonkeysLad


    Thats all fine and all but what if you'd end up being better with that other person your flirting with, you would'nt know until you tried, just cos your going out with someone does'nt mean you cant explore other opportunities. saying that if you were really happy, there would'nt be a point anyway, but I don'nt think the title boyfriend or girlfriend should always make the person a p**ck for doing it. I think its mainly girls that think that way ! any other views on this ???:rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,802 ✭✭✭thegills


    You may think your happy with your g/f, but what if the girl your considering flirting with could make you equally or more happy, and on top of that she has a demon body, great looks etc. and is willing to fulfil your utmost fantasies etc.
    I'm not being childish, but if you don't flirt and explore then you might as well just stop living


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,478 ✭✭✭GoneShootin


    me in the shadows? If that is so, why am I the dumper? and never the dumpee?

    because your partners pity you too much and fear that dumping you would drive you over the edge ?

    you have serious problems. contact SHERON on the PI Forum immediately....

    I didn't flaunt nothing , sigh, if only TYPEDEF were here


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9 DonkeysLad


    indeed, ive done it myself on many occasions I have to say ive never regretted it, I don't see the point. another good thing is that I think it improves self confidence, and the absolute best thing is that most of it is done in the pub which just can never be a bad thing, haha (how wrong can i be!):p

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,400 ✭✭✭TacT


    good point the gills :D

    As long as no one takes it the wrong way then it's a ok, but if you're in a steady relationship and constantly have people in the shadows then it's just silly tbh, pure greed and no respect, I've never gone and had sex with someone else while going out with someone and I'll still stick by that, unless say you're both young and are about to spend 6 months or a year apart because say one of you is off travelling and you've agreed it would be best if you did see other people, mebbe then when you get back you may find you appreciate them that bit more.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,193 ✭✭✭[Jackass]


    Going out with a girl is always a tricky situation, because people are naturaly protective of those they "love", so my tip for the day is ,be affectionate, show how much you care, a woman is a fountain of knowledge, just waiting to be heard, so thirst for that knowledge, and lend her an ear, love is reciprecal, and what ever love you give, can only come back ten fold......

    Also never drink to much when youre out with your girlfriend, because drunk people do silly things, like this one time, i stuck my poker (if ya know what i mean ;) in my cats ass cause i was drunk, and my girlfriend dumped me, and my cat got pregnant and now i have to pay kitten support......

    Also ,never cheese up her mother, or any familly member for that matter, and before you flame anyone ,i just want you to know that ,YES, i am a 14 year old acne ridden virgin boy who spies on my nabours, and YES, i do think/wish i was black, and YES, i probably will masterb**e over some of the replys posted here, believeing them to be of women!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,184 ✭✭✭neuro-praxis


    I don't think flirting should be a big deal if both parties are secure in the relationship. However, I think that there's a point that you shouldn't cross and when in the situation, you're aware whether or not you are going to cross that line.

    I think that the real crime is not flirting but having an emotional affair with someone - ie. admitting you've got feelings for each other while one or both parties is attached, and saying that "if only things were different" you'd be together...

    That's cheating too, even if it's not physical.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 829 ✭✭✭McGinty


    hmm flirting, well personally I like a little light flirting, that is a joke, a laugh, a little inuendo. However I am not into physical contact type of flirting, although I would not call that flirting, but each to their own. I would not be proud of f****ing behind my loved ones back, I have done it but not proud, a very stupid thing to do, it hurts others but mainly you just let yourself down.
