The only time I like a girlfriend to be angry is when another guy is hitting on her. That is the only time I find that attractive but it actually is quite attractive.
Your issue sounds like you don't know how to be firm with people which is something you can learn to develop. It's normal to be horrible about it. It would be quite an unappealing trait in a girlfriend because it seems like you may not be faithful and I would hate the idea of my girlfriend being friendly to a guy flirting with her and her taking his number. That's really disrespectful.

Of course it's bad. If you caught your boyfriend doing the same thing you'd be pissed off wouldn't you? And whether or not he was actually up to something wouldn't matter, you'd automatically become very suspicious of him. At the very least you'd feel like he didn't respect you and the relationship.
The big thing you have to ask yourself here is why you seem to care more about avoiding hurting the feelings of guys you don't even know and shouldn't really care about more than you do your relationship with your boyfriend.
Yes, you are being irrational. I don't understand. Just say you have a boyfriend and walked away. Why must you waste your time entertaining them only to still reject them in the end? Makes no sense. The moment you text them saying you have a boyfriend, you are already embarrassing them and also hurting their feelings more.
Yes, I believe flirting with other people while you're in a relationship is wrong. It's not difficult to tell someone "thank you but I'm not interested." That's not being mean and while it always hurts to be rejected, it's still the best thing to do in this situation out of basic respect for your partner.

I think it's perfectly normal. Dating is very competitive and the fact that you rejected them in theory means that you were not convinced they were a better choice. For any that should be a reasonable confidence booster, assuming that's the case. Flirting helps you recognize flirting as well though, which can be invaluable even outside of romantic pursuits.
Honestly its pretty bad i see a lot of dudes that go through this when they see they're girl letting other guys flirt with them, and they get either pissed off or heartbroken when they see that she's not tellin them to back off, and the being friendly part can be misunderstood as u flirting back in some guys eyes
Sounds like you knew where to stop. but just so you know even though you thought you was being nice and not hurting there feeling. it still hurts. Darlin. And flirting in my book is alright as long as that's all that is done. sometimes everyone needs to flirt. so they know they still have what it takes.
You just need to develop a tougher skin and be more assertive and just politely but clearly tell guys "no thanks". They want something very specific with you, so your being friendly can seem to them like an "invitation".
You shouldn't flirt at all it places mistrust on you and the relationship you have with him and doesn't make it seem like you would be loyal to him if you have this sort of behavior.
Depends how you quantify bad.
Would you like it if this happened to you?Yes it’s bad that should never happen why your in a relationship I bet the messages was hidden away from partner?
Than, it's cool for him to flirt with other girls.. Done deal..
