Does your DH flirt with other women?

109 replies

Really want to know wives opinions of their DH flirting with others and whether they mind it or not

I have some friends who say they know their DHs are flirty but just accept that as their personality.

AIBU to not want my husband to do that or is it normal to a certain extent?

No but he struggled to flirt with me 17 years ago. Some people are naturally flirty. I've been known to flirt a little in a club but I'd never kiss anyone and dh is the one for me.

headinhands · 07/09/2018 22:29

The problem with your op is that not everyone has the same definition of flirting. You'll need to be specific with examples.

RoboticSealpup · 07/09/2018 22:30

No.

Haisuli · 07/09/2018 22:36

No he doesn't. Not in front of me anyway. I can't think of a single example in the 16 years we have been together.

PAlm5 · 07/09/2018 22:41

Ha ha ha ha! Oh my - the idea of my DH flirting

Seconding this. That's a funny thought!!

bingbongnoise · 07/09/2018 23:03

The only 'FUNNY' thought on here is that some women actually genuinely believe their husband/partner NEVER flirts, and say 'don't be silly, he doesn't even know how to flirt.... ha ha LOL, guffaw guffaw....' and 'I think it's hilarious - the thought of my husband even ATTEMPTING to flirt!'

Trust me, your husband DOES flirt with other women.

When you are not there.

How naive some people are. Or in denial. (Or both!)

bing yes because you know everyone's husbands, and all men flirt, and there isn't a man out there who doesn't flirt with other women behind their wives backs Hmm I swear you are are the most goady poster on mn!

bingbongnoise · 07/09/2018 23:14

Goady? Moi? Nahhhhh

Realistic more like.

It just makes me laugh, how many women are insistent that their husbands don't even KNOW how to flirt!

COME ON! They are either very naive, or horribly in denial.

Anyone who says different, is in denial too.

bingbongnoise · 07/09/2018 23:16

What's more @PAlm5 I literally have no fucking clue who you are.

I have never conversed with you on here.

Or if I have, I don't remember you.

Speaks volumes really LOL.

Nice that you remember ME though. I must be doing something right!

Nubbled · 07/09/2018 23:20

My husband is nearly 70, young women rush to help him constantly. There’s nothing wrong with him, but they do 😂

maddjess · 07/09/2018 23:21

Does he eck, I'd find that disrespectful

ShatnersBassoon · 07/09/2018 23:21

Egads, no! He is incapable of it.

Singletomingle · 07/09/2018 23:23

I've met many men who have few social skills and are unable to flirt

bing I expect you are always fighting off those flirting partnered men aren't you ?

It must be such a trial, living your life

bingbongnoise · 07/09/2018 23:26

Bless you AF, thanks for your concern. But yeah I DO get a lot of men coming onto me, and they are always married.

What can I do? I am fucking gorgeous, and sexy as FUCK!

bingbongnoise · 07/09/2018 23:27

I do feel sorry for their wives though, having flirty husbands, and I am happily married, so never act on it.

I also feel sorry for them kidding themselves their men just DON'T KNOW how to flirt, PMS:!!

bingbongnoise · 07/09/2018 23:28

Ooooops, I mean PMSL!

I've met many men who have few social skills and are able to flirt.

I don't think the inability to flirt should be classed as a defect Grin

Sarahandduck18 · 07/09/2018 23:28

No!

Of course not.

He’s a decent human being.

explodingkitten · 07/09/2018 23:30

Mine can't flirt. Not even with me after marriage. Good thing I like men that are a bit shy.

AnyFucker · 07/09/2018 23:31

I think what you are short of bing is some good female friends

Or are you more of a man's woman ?

Somerville · 07/09/2018 23:32

Bless bing, she thinks everyone’s husband is as much of a creep as her own.
