I been called a "flirt" by my friends. They said it's automatic for me to go cute on pretty ladies. I'm concerned, am I already cheating my girlfriend if I flirt?

Well for me flirting is not cheating, and I think it's natural these days to flirt and its actually normal to admire pretty ladies but If I'm your girl and I saw you flirting with other girls I will be jealous and it might end up in a fight. I think, personally, when you are in a relationship you must put limitations in flirting well because I suppose you don't want to hurt your girlfriend's feelings.

I you yourself call it as "flirting" then for me it is already cheating.Why? Because when you "flirt" that means you are trying to get the attention of the one you are "flirting "with thus this means that you would like to get noticed and why you do you like to get noticed because like the girl or the guy you are flirting with. That makes it cheating for me.

Hi there! yeah, personally, I think that flirting is already cheating. I think the best way to know is to put yourself in your girlfriend's shoes and vice versa. If she flirts, will you feel cheated?

Hello, swanniesbaby. I do believe that, if you are flirting, then you are cheating. Not cheating like if you were with another person kissing and all. But it means that you are not loyal to your girlfriend. If you are flirting, then it means you are disrespecting your girlfriend. You should not flirt while you have a girlfriend. Also, if she sees you do doing this, you may get into a serious problem. I doubt she would like to see her boyfriend flirting with other girls. :D Respectfully, Munhozmib.

I don't think it is cheating but it is not really very pleasing to see a guy with a girlfriend flirting with another girls. But if the intentions are good and just for friendship, then I think it is OK. Just don't mind what people may think as long as you know that you are free from any guilt. And just be sure that you remain faithful.

If you are a flirt or flirting with somebody it doesn't mean you are cheating already that day when you were flirting. Maybe flirting can be a start to cheat with some people but cheating is different than flirting. Flirting can only be for fun and is less interested to have a serious relationship with another person, but cheating is a serious activitiy even if it's only for fun. Does it sounds too complicated?

I don't think flirting is cheating but I think flirting can get people into trouble. For instance, flirting often leads people on and it sends the wrong messages to people. By sending the wrong messages to people you're encouraging unwanted attention. Or, maybe you want the attention and you are egging it on. That itself I consider rather bad and often leads to something happening like emotional or physical cheating. It's a very shady area.

Hello there, for me, i can say it's already cheating. Coz when you flirt with someone, you looks like you are showing some motives to the other girl or boy. So in your heart and mind you know that's not right when you have girlfriend. Even thinking someone that's cheating for me. Happy posting.

Every day women are getting a lot of flirting signals from men around them.Men are sending these signals with the hope that women will respond to them,but very rarely it comes true.So i think until your flirt is not going to turn to an actual relationshiop ,you are not cheating your girlfriend.
