So, if a co-worker says to me in an e-mail this evening that I was "a sight for sore eyes today" and that I looked "great", he's flirting, right? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

Yes, but it sounds like the harmless variety (i.e. not particularly sexual). I have a male coworker who I'm close with and he compliments my outfits, I say "thanks, honey" when he does me a favor, etc. but it's a purely brotherly/friendly kind of relationshjip. [ Reply | More ]

op: Thanks. He asked whether I had a restful weekend or whether it is "just good genes." He's pretty flirty with me usually, but this seemed a step up, so I had to ask. [ Reply | More ]

op: Definitely a bit cheesy, but he's kind of dorky in a lot of ways. Hot, but dorky. I don't know that he knows how to flirt. [ Reply | More ]

no sex? thats too bad. we go through periods where we rarely have sex just because we sort of forget to (sounds crazy i know). i try to make a point of being more physical and it is so helpful. would you ever cheat on him? [ Reply | More ]

op: It doesn't sound crazy, actually. We forget all the time, as we're so exhausted and have no free time that isn't kid-related. I have no sex drive, though, and have always thought of dh as the love of my life, but not sexually. As for whether I'd cheat, I don't think so. But I'm crazy hot for this guy at work. He has a girlfriend, though, so I'm assuming he's not planning on taking this flirtation anywhere. [ Reply | More ]

a dh, here. imo, he would DEFINITELY take his flirtation somewhere if you give him the most remote indication it would be reciprocated. [ Reply | More ]

np: DW here and ITA. Why WOULDN'T he? As a single man, a married woman would be perfect - no commitment, can't spend too much time with you, and wants tons of sex. [ Reply | More ]

op: Really? I have no idea what guys are thinking. He has never mentioned his girlfriend to me, and I haven't ever mentioned my dh (though the ring makes it obvious), but I know he has a girlfriend. Why do you think he would take it further? Don't men just flirt for flirting's sake? Also, what would qualify as a "remote indication" that it would be reciprocated? [ Reply | More ]

the dh, here, again. imo, generally, men don't flirt just for flirting's sake. as previous poster noted, he likes your situation and sees how the constraints of your situation (you being colleagues and you being married) means the relationship would be totally sexual and would end with no muss and no fuss. he's in it for the sex and danger. i assume you kind of might be, too, no......?

well the fuss comes with the fact that it is cheating which then is followed by guilt. [ Reply | More ]

is that OP or a judgmental comment from the peanut gallery? [ Reply | More ]

op: someone else posted the point about the guilt, not me. But she's right, b/c I'm a guilty person by nature. [ Reply | More ]

whats judgemental? is would be cheating (fact) which is followed by a guilty feeling (i assume to be factual in most cases) [ Reply | More ]

we are the same way and i an og with our first! we just both work a ton and we are both so active we just forget to be intimate. i am sure it will be much worse when we have db. i masterbate a lot- which is silly when he is right here, but it is just quicker and easier. god...i sound so lazy!
