The other poster is right, we don't like being told what to do nor our man acting like a security guard. I don't like being treated as a hopeless handicapped person that can't stand up for herself (it's really insulting). In fact that was our final argument of the day, when he tried explaining me something because of the ''I'm just trying to look after you'' reason. I don't need a guardian for a boyfriend, just an average BF.
I was merely saying that your flirty behavior is not acceptable because there's a difference between men and women.

Girls are allowed to have convos with other guys besides our SO and it's not our fault if the guy interprets it as flirting...why don't I just put a black veil over my face and never expose my ankles! Jeez...Double standards are never okay! I have guy friends whom I talk to online or via text every once in awhile and my man doesn't talk to any girls ever besides for family and my friends...that's his choice though, I would never tell him he couldn't have friends that are girls just as he would never tell me I can't have friends that are boys. We're grown ups who trust each other and don't have to completely control each other in order to get what we want, because we want to make each other happy...that's the motivation for being a good mate...
Do you know the difference between perception and reality? We, human, always believe our perception is the reality; hence the sun circles the earth.

Dude, I hardly believe it myself...but guess what--nice guys do exist--he's as horny as the next but that doesn't mean he wants to have sex with any other girls, just me...he consistantly says he doesn't have sexual fantasies about other girls ever and hopes I don't ever think about having sex with another man...but to me daydreaming or fantasizing is in no way cheating...

You're right that the only reality anyone knows is the one we ourselves percieve...exactly why your "rules" are simply only your opinion and not every man's.

You may be used to dealing with young girls which is where your message seems to be directed. Hate to break the news but it is Ok to do a little flirting with adult men, most men know it's harmless and just add a little brightness to the guys day.
Yeah and same goes with the ladies.

To the Op get your head out of your butt and come back to the real world. I know men want sex all the time. Why do you think us ladies flirt with you guys. And yes If I was dating I wouldn't flirt badly or inappropriately with another fellow. As I wouldn't want the one I'm dating to do the same. However if your single have a ball!!!! Life is short.

Some people mature; others just get old.

There's no appropriate flirting with others when you are in a relationship.

I'm not ignorant...is it really that hard to believe that a guy actually loves a woman so much she's the only one he thinks of? If so, than I guess I hit the jackpot.
