Is It Etiquette For A Taken Man To Flirt Back With A Random Woman

Is it ok to flirt with a married woman?

It really all depends, nothing is black and white. I went out last night for a lovely meal. One of the staff members was very friendly. At first I thought to myself its just how people in hospitality need to be for their job but after a while she became flirtatious and I noticed it wasn't aimed at anyone else other than me. She kept calling me honey and would playfully say how she cooked my meal personally and how she'd maxed out my credit card as I had left it for the tab. Anyway when I got home I just had to call the restaurant and ask her if she was flirting because I found her personality very appealing and to me she was quite attractive. Upon asking her she replied she was married. Even though it was a little awkward we both saw the funny side to it and had a laugh. She still called me honey before hanging up the phone. She had a playful, bubbly, flirtatious personality which I am attracted to so it would have been totally against my nature not to at least ask. Will I flirt with her again now I know she's married? If she was to flirt with me again absolutely I would. Should I be worried about her husband? Absolutely not, I'm sure he knows what his wife is like and if he didn't like her personality he wouldn't accept her for who she is. I think it's wrong how marriage is held higher than our internal instincts. Marriage is something humans created either through religion or a legal bond. Our internal instincts are ingrained in us all, married or not, one is to reproduce therefore being attracted to the opposite sex is normal. So I believe that our instincts are a lot more powerful than a religious or legal bond and flirting weather you're married or not is totally normal, its not something we should try and switch off.

Why would a woman find it safer to flirt with a married man than one that is single?

So here's the thing about flirting: Flirting by itself doesn't mean anything. It doesn't mean the person doing it is interested in you. It doesn't mean the person doing it wants to have sex with you.Flirting is fun. It's an entertaining, playful social interaction. It doesn't have to mean anything more. Sometimes you might flirt with someone you find desirable...but not necessarily. Flirting by itself doesn't mean a thing.But single guys often don't know that--especially socially clueless single guys. Flirting with a single guy can sometimes be a bit like strapping a steak onto yourself, dousing yourself in Worcestershire sauce, and stepping into a cage full of hungry Dobermans. Next thing you know, they've constructed this elaborate fantasy about True Love and The One and something something, and they just won't let go of that bone. Flirting with people who aren't likely to make that mistake is safer. People who are already partnered are less likely to make that mistake.

Is it appropriate for married women to go out to packed bars and dance clubs without their husbands?

Its not really about trusting her or not it's about being in a relationship and respecting each other completely.  Of every couple that has tied the knot 50% fail to stay married. The most loving time for a man and woman is getting married right?  Now then something happens over time.  Boundaries get crossed and it goes south.. Now if both members on a relationship respect and understand boundaries there will never be a problem with infidelity.  See, people sometimes put themselves in a position where there is a chance something could happen.  A woman could go out with her girlfriends dancing. A nice young man approaches her and asks her to dance. She'll turn him down but, men are predators and he will be relentless and she will eventually cave. Not always but most of the time. He may be very charming and sweep her off her feet.  Good dancing, a few drinks and what most people do not realize is the ferramones that men and women expell when they exercise, and dancing is exercise. They become attracted, for some reason they kiss......this is the beginning of the end. Please don't be narrow minded to think, "it'll never happen to me" because it absolutely does happen. Did she mean to go out and hook up? No absolutely not.. How many times have you heard, "I don't know why I did it, but it just happened". Men and women who are in a relationship need to understand situations for what they are. Don't put yourself in a situation where you could become vulnerable.  Recognize that her going out to a club is a very, very dangerous and destructive activity.  This is all hypothetical but it happens every day. Sometimes the first night out, sometimes the persuer takes a few days and he will ask her," may we dance next time we see each other" and she will be thinking about this guy, he gave her attention, flattered her and was interesting.  She becomes his prey. Now if a husband sees this, the new guy kisses his wife and she accepts the kiss well it's a nail in the coffin.

Should you continue to flirt with a girl when she has a boyfriend?

Assuming by "girl", you mean an young adult woman(because flirting with a woman who isn't adult yet is skeevy  and I will give you the benefit of doubt and assume that is not what you are doing)  If she is willing to flirt then you should continue to flirt, whether she has a boyfriend or not. Some people flirt because they have fun doing it. She is old enough to make her own decision whether she should flirt with you. You should respect her adult choiceIf she is not willing to flirt, then you should stop flirting. Generally, unwanted flirting is called harrasment, and you might find that harrassing other people is highly injurious to your own health.
