I've recently read an FDS post about how when a man is jealous of a male-friend of you is "because he knows his intentions" and the comments made me remember the so-called "innocent flirting" and I wanted to share why I don't like it.

It's disrespectful. Forget for a moment the woman who stars flirting with a man within a committed relationship, he has no need to engage. He should ignore her. 0 attention.

Some people think that is just joking around, it's "innocent", nothing would ever happen, etc. But that's not the point. It doesn't matter if they have the intention of doing something or not, it doesn't matter if they don't sleep together, kiss, hug or even put a finger on him: It's disrespectful towards the woman he decides to have a committed relationship.

What do you think about this & have you ever had this experience?

For example; I read in a comment about a woman that said that this happened to her and they decided to mock her. Whenever she started getting flirty with her husband he starts talking about how beautiful her wife is and how much he loves her. Since all she wanted was attention, that crushed her ego. Problem solved.
