Well, OK, it depends on what you mean. Some of my flirting is pretty subtle, but most of it is pretty obvious. What it's not is Sexually Motivated. I do draw that distinction, and prefer Vanilla Flirting, if you will. What I mean is that my flirting tends to be, "gee, you're so nice, and so smart, and wow! You can do so many things so well!" Not, "Hey, big boy, you're so big and strong and sure to be great naked..." You know what I mean? More complimentary, less sexuality.

There's them as might say if it's not about sex, it ain't flirting. To them say I, "rubbish!" Flirting is flirting. If you add a healthy dose of sex, it becomes Seduction, instead, and that's not what I'm after. (Well, most of the time...)

If you enjoy flirting, and you can remind yourself that it is *only* flirting, go ahead. Worst thing that can happen is you both enjoy flirting and go home to your partners with a little extra joy to bring to that relationship. If you have any doubts, though, talk to your therapist about this.

Hope that helps.
