I made a rule with my wife before we hitched that when I wasn't around, she should simply ask herself.."If Iowanian were watching or listening right now, would he be pissed off?" If the answer is yes, don't do it.
I do my best to follow the same rule.
I think my limit would be the following.
1. Would she care if I were reading it(or would I care if she read my posts)
2. Is it in the public forum?
If it were in Email or PM form....Heads would roll for sure.
I trust my bride and she has no reason not to trust me, so its not a problem.
But I'm an asshole.
So why are you always flirting with Chiefs4me then? [Reply]
I think I would be angry about that. The question to me isn't, "is there anything wrong with it", it's "why do you feel the need to do that...?" [Reply]
I think at some point it goes over the line, but I'd have a hard time defining where that is any better than Iowanian's if-my-SO-reads-it-will-he/she-care rule, so I'll go with that. The specific answer to the question you really want to ask is "hell yes it's wrong and you should give R&F a severe spanking when she gets home tonight." :-) [Reply]

I think the answer to that question is, "because you're not getting it done." And I'm not talking about you specifically... I'm talking in general terms.
In studying communication, there is a principle that has always stuck with me with regards to relationships... It stands true for any relationship, whether it be co-workers, boss-employee, husband-wife... You name it... It simply stated as this: in any relationship where one side perceives a deficit in the relational exchange, that side will (conciously or unconciously) endeavor to achieve balance. [Reply]

Yeah and with my luck this will be the night the mrs checks on my on-line activities and I'll get to hear about how I'm spending too much time on the planet. [Reply]

What makes flirting fun, at least to guys, is the fact that EVERY ONE OF THEM has a little part of their brain that's telling them "they just might get some someday".
Don't deny it; to say otherwise is pure BS. [Reply]

But, yeah... I don't so much flirt with ugly girls.
You can't bullsh!t me.
The fact that you found a cute little angle doesn't change what's going on between your ears. [Reply]
