Is There a Flirtation Freedom in Being Married?

[sunstruck]

I've been married now for six months, and I've noticed, I flirt a lot more freely than I used to. Harmless flirting of course, but still. It's like flashing that ring on my finger says "Hey, I'm obviously just joking around, but isn't it fun?"

I mentioned this to my husband and he laughed it off, telling me I have always been a shameless flirt, so maybe I'm just noticing it more now.

A friend of mine, 26, single, gorgeous works in an office with dozens of marrried women, some old enough to be his mother, and the things they say to him are often enough to make a porn star blush!

Does anyone else notice this?

I don't know about "Freedom", but I can relate to what you're saying in a slightly different fashion:

It seemed that during the time that I was married, that I was flirted *with more than any other point in my life. I am not sure if that is because I was "taken" or what the reasoning was.

In turn, I have discussed this with friends of mine in different situations...(both men and women) and have determined that this is not unusual for them as well.

Nonetheless, what's wrong with flirting? As long as your husband isn't green with jealousy....have at it. <g>

Best,

I agree with you on the flirtation freedom. Having the ring on my finger did seem to set me a little bit free. However, I do know where to draw the line. I'm never afraid to say, "I'm sorry if you thought there was more here than flirting." You do have to be careful not to cross the line from flirting to leading a poor fella on.

Flirting is ALWAYS fun, and as long as your hubby doesn't mind have at it!!!! He probably even likes it a bit.....

I've been married for over 14 years and I still flirt. Also my husband flirts. But that's all it is.... flirting.... having fun

Well then it seems that my threatening to spank one of our show hosts if he's late again is perfectly harmless! Excellent!
Wait....I can't actually spank him can I? Darn.

I agree flirtation is a normal thing. My husband I and I both flirt freely with others. I see nothing wrong with it. In my case it is a turn on.

My wife and I would have to agree with you ... we both love to flirt with others
