By flirting I mean do you use your womanly charms to get what you want from men?

I've been married for 9 years and flirt like a bugger , dh knows and is not fazed by it at all, it's usually with his mates and they are the same back

Northerner · 27/09/2006 17:34

I don't flirt outragesly but am aware as a woman it is easy to get men to do things for you if they fancy you.

Would never flirt with dh's amtes though!

They know it's all fun though and alot of his mates, I we knew them before we got together.

I've always flirted with man, woman or child. My bf says I flirt with everything that breathes.... I say that I'm merely being interested in people!

Gobbledigook · 27/09/2006 18:35

Doesn't everyone flirt?

Radley · 27/09/2006 18:36

To be honest, i think it is healthy to flirt, unfortunately dh does not know how to flirt and has NEVER done it. Men eh?

Gobbledigook · 27/09/2006 18:37

OMG, my dh is a world champion at it!

Greensleeves · 27/09/2006 18:40

Yes, married, and no, I don't think I flirt. I am too crabbed and grumpy to flirt.

Piffle · 27/09/2006 18:40

I would if I ever bloody went anywhere

Greensleeves · 27/09/2006 18:41

lol Piffle. Me too

Gobbledigook · 27/09/2006 18:42

Oh come on, you're not trying hard enough! You can flirt with anyone and everyone!

Greensleeves · 27/09/2006 18:42

What for?

FillyjonktheBananaEater · 27/09/2006 18:42

um...

no, i really don't. Not proper flirting.

I would feel it disrespectful to dh, tbh.

I mean, being nice to people, great, but...no.

am old fashioned and square, yes, I know.

Gobbledigook · 27/09/2006 18:42

Fun!

TambaTheDragonSlayer · 27/09/2006 18:43

Yes. It gets me what I want.

Piffle · 27/09/2006 18:43

Yeah tell me where
Tescos
Farmers Market (old farmers or handsome young Slovenians who don't meet your gaze)

dd's nursery - severe lack of men
Everywhere else I am usually accompanied by the man I last charmed with my stunning flirting ability 7 years ago...

Greensleeves · 27/09/2006 18:54

Quite. Most of the men I meet are too dim/slack-jawed/witless/gobby/meatheaded to be worth flirting with. Even if I could remember how.

I doubt they would notice the likes of me giving them "come-hither" glances, they would probably think I was having a stroke or something.

DW tops the lot, she flirted outrageously with the BT engineer over the phone at the weekend, it got our broadband fixed double quick, though.

I was sitting next to her, laughing my head off at her "you're very clever, aren't you?", "i'm taking the cable out now, oooh it's bit hard".

WelshBoris · 28/09/2006 11:29

God yes I flirt

Im not married, just in a realtionship but I dont think marriage would stop me!!

It's never ever going to lead to anything else so I dont see the harm

My boyfriend cant flirt to save his life!

HappyDaddy · 28/09/2006 12:05

Are you lot flirting with me, by asking this question?

Women are awful, they flirt with you then look at you like you're a piece of shit. Or is that just me?

FluffyOHaraOfSnugglesville · 28/09/2006 12:07

I flirt outragously with anybody who I think will let me get away with it.. dp doesn't mind.

I don't do it to get what I want from men, I do it because I like it

Dp likes me doing it because it keeps my mojo working

and means he doesn't have to bother giving me compliments
