If you are in commited relationship...flirting anywhich way is a no-no.

 

(call me old fashioned)

 

I am "old fashioned" as well and I agree with Mutley. If you are married/committed you should not be blatantly flirting. Especially with a "chat buddy" - that is just as recipe for disaster.

It really is a recipe for disaster. These "innocent flirtations" often turn into something much more. You might develop feelings for her, and this could turn into a full blown affair that breaks up your marriage. Would you want your wife to have an innocent flirtation with a man online? What are you not getting from your wife that is causing you to want this?

Even if its a simple conversation between adults that will never go anywhere, just fantasy play is the word Im looking for.

 

It's disrespectful to your husband. If you run it past him and he is totally ok with it - well that is between you and him. I know it is something I would not be comfortable with my partner doing, even if it is just fantasy play.

Im the wife and I know all the moves by heart now, have tried just about everything we can think of. I love him with everything I just want my heart to pick up some speed. I would never cheat!! Looking for some excitement I guess.

 

ok...my mistake.

 

I'll let the women take it from here.

I don't know Mutley, man or woman the situation is still the same. Personally, I feel there are other ways to get your heart racing again that don't involve forms of emotional infidelity. But that is just me. Have you talked with your husband about how you are feeling? As I said, perhaps he wouldn't mind you having an online chat buddy.

Ok...that's true.

 

If I was experiencing that....I'd really concentrate on my SO. And see if I could make things better.

 

Guys can be numbskulls and not pick up what's going on though. I'm talking from experience.

yeah, this wouldn't lead to anywhere good. Emotional attachment can happen pretty quickly if you spend signifcant time chatting with someone else. Before you know it, you're making plans to just "have lunch" or "say hi."

 

Even if that's not the case, there's an emotional investment and a reliance on someone else that in and of itself is a form of cheating.

 

Set up a date with your husband. Go to a bar, and have him come in, act like he's never met you, and attempt to pick you up. Or any number of other scenarios.

I think online flirting is a very selfish thing to do. I have experienced this myself in the past and I was devastated to find out that my partner was engaging in this sort of thing behind my back. Think of it this way, if its something you wouldnt do in front of your partner then it is probably something you shouldnt be doing period.

 

I think you need to be honest with your partner about your feelings and try to make some changes together to revive your relationship. Sometimes what starts out as online flirting can quickly progress into something that will destroy other people's lives. Dont play with fire just to get your heart beating a bit faster...put the time and the effort into your current relationship or get out of it if its making unhappy enough to consider finding a so-called "online buddy". You will save yourself and other people a lot of heartache.

Thanks guys and girls, I would never do this behind his back and no cheating would never be worth losing him. I love him

 

That I am glad to hear. It sucks when things seem commonplace. I think it is time to put a little extra effort into your relationship with your husband. Go on a date, buy some lingerie, light some candles, try something new - whatever may work for you. Find something that is going to be exciting for you that involves him. You have a wonderful husband - look at this site, people search far and wide to find what you have. I am glad you wouldn't risk it.

That's what they all say when they start "innocently" flirting with someone online...it is a slippery slope. Flirting, becomes sexual innuendos, becomes exchanging photos, becomes exchanging naked photos, becomes internet sex, becomes an arrangement to discreetly meet up for dinner, becomes having sex with each other, becomes having regular meetups for sex. Sometimes it is just about sex, other times a full blown emotional affair takes place even if sex is not happening. So the bottom line is fix your marriage and spice it up...do not start flirting with someone online.

WHOA! That doesn't happen to every person who ever flirted online CAD! That is quite a leap! Sure that can happen, but not to everyone. God I have a ton of male internet friends and it didn't get to that escalation! Maybe it depends on the level of flirting. I flirt with my female online friends as much or more than the males - which is proof of its innocence.
