Do you agree that it is your responsibility to let someone know you're married if they're interested in you?

[Anonymous]

Suppose you're flirting with someone and they're reciprocating and are clearly showing interest in wanting something more with you isn't it your responsibility to let me them know you're taken? Things shouldn't have gone this far in the first place.

Yes

I don't endorse flirting while being married to me that's absolutely wrong and cheating. Some people do and the question is based on that.

[ShellyB]

I do not think someone should deliberately flirt w someone else if they are married or in any type of committed relationship. However there are times when someone is flirting with you and you have to decide whether to be nice, which could be taken as flirting a little. I usually decide to be nice and that is one thing that I think I need to get better at, being polite wo seeming like I am flirting. That said, any time I feel like this is happening, I go out of my way to mention my fiance. Like if he is drinking whiskey I might say "my fiance also likes bourbon" or whatever. JMO!

I’d say it’s more a responsibility not to be flirting with anyone if already in any committed relationship…

[Asker]

Yes true but some people do flirt while married so the question is based on that

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

You really think If someone has that little of respect for their partner to be flirting with other people behind their back that they’re going to have enough respect to be honest about being married..

[TonyMetal___86]

@Brainsbeforebeauty i prefer to flirt only with my wife if i was married and snatch her spongy forehead 😈

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

@TonyMetal___86 you’re going to marry a sponge? 🧽 🤣🤣🤣

[TonyMetal___86]

A alien with a spongy forehead but i'm sad till the headache goes away so i can bite viciously 💆🏼‍♀️😬

I don't think people should be flirting when they are married period. I know a lot of women do it, and seem to think it's fine as long as nothing actually happens. But I tend to disagree.

If you wouldn't do it in front of your husband, then it's probably something that you shouldn't be doing. And the other way around with men.

[OlderAndWiser]

No. It is your responsibility to not flirt! If you are married, you are disrespecting your spouse by flirting. And you are also misleading the person with whom you are flirting. SO wrong!

[Quackthulu2]

I think it’s more accurate to say that it is your responsibility to let somebody know you are unavailable if you are unavailable. Not all marriages are closed, and marriage isn’t the only reason that a person is unavailable to date. But yes, the general sentiment is accurate. Not telling them is just pretty shitty.

[Justmeagain1]

This is a question of integrity. When married and in a relationship as well you should not act available and you should not be available on that level for anyone other then you significant other.

I was in Toronto at this club & met a girl who as you said was very flirty, touching and hugging me as we danced. I went for a kiss she pulled away and commented she wanted to but couldn’t. I was like 🤷‍♂️ Wtf?

She admitted being married so I asked what the hell was she doing? I walked away but then she went full in started saying she didn’t care and wanted me. I told her off.

[Jersey2]

Did she wear a ring?

[red324]

I can sometimes talk to a girl for 5 or 10 minutes before asking ask for their number and then having them say they have a boyfriend. Rarely ever do I recall being cutoff as soon as I told them why I came up to them, and I usually say that in the beginning. I don't know, I think they're just being polite.

[desidoll]

Yes. Leading people is totally selfish. I am very honest with my status whenever I feel like the guy is showing interest in me.

[lightbulb27]

don't flirt

yes, inform them you are married

and say no to advances

anything else, person needs some emotional counsel.

[mommymommymommy]

That's usually implied with a wedding ring anyway, however, it's always good to just clarify that you are indeed, married, so that the other person can just move on, and leave you alone. Yes, I said LEAVE YOU ALONE

[Finchie40]

Nowadays no one really cares if you are in a relationship/ marriage , people just do what is best for them , why this world is fucked up

[Rockstarrrrr]

I don't know that would sound a little arrogant or corny lol... I think it's better to tell them when they make a big gesture... While keeping your boundaries of course...

[tfan1]

Yes it is your responsibility and if they don’t believe it, show them your hand with your wedding ring 💍

[exitseven]

Yes, I always tell people that I am very married.

[kellytheman]

Yeah if a girl tells me she is taken I back off and if I was married I tell her sorry I'm taken but thank you for your interest.

[YourExLover69]

Yes but currently I'm single so I let people know I'm single 🤣

[TrillXHippy]

If I was married I wouldn’t flirt smh. If I had a girlfriend I wouldn’t flirt. I don’t even flirt and I’m single

[shades777]

I think people who flirt while married are guaging whether or not they can get away with an affair

[Asker]

Well why not get divorced then?

[Asker]

Instead of being in this joke of a marriage

[jujus]

Any type of exclusive relationship should not be flirting for it to lead to anything else also should see a ring on their finger

[TonyMetal___86]

If i was married or not, i don't flirt with women a lot...

[TadCurious]

Yes I definitely agree.

[FemaleBellyLover]

Because it is a point of honesty and moral idoneity from whom is married.

[Onashir]

Act fully drunk if u end in the car in the parking lot with a blow job that should be okay
