Is flirting cheating?

[frank]

This has been a popular question on my Twitter for a few days, so I decided to take the poll to a new demographic. What do you guys think?
EDIT: some people seem confused as to what side im on. I definitely consider flirting cheating.

[Pixelpusher]

No

[DarkCrystalMethod]

As long as both realize its a joke and its not serious. Also the appearance of cheating is often interpreted as actual cheating. Just don't do it.

[Radene]

Nope.

It can lead to cheating if self-control is an issue, but in and of itself, flirting is not cheating.

[Vince ✟]

Technically no, but you could still end up in the doghouse.

[DarkCrystalMethod]

Or perhaps you're playing a practical joke to see how your partner responds to seeing you with another person. That always ends hillariously.
...alone... with neither... in a hotel... while thngs blow over.

It can be seen as disrespectful but I get the impression people can(and will) flirt without harboring feelings for that person .

That seems to be the consensus tbh

[Vixen Ren]

Yes, any kind loving emotion toward another person is cheating.

[Sorokin]

What is the end result you want to achieve when your flirting?
Or rather why are you flirting in the first place?

Well that's brutal. In fact, I had that problem. My sister had a problem and needed help one day, so I cancelled the evening with my ex. And my ex indeed pretty much went "You cheated on me" at me.

Flirting is sometimes just that. Nothing to "achieve", just fun and relaxing.

Without sexual undercurrents.

This is exactly it.

If you truly want to be with your current partner, you wouldn’t be flirting around with other men/women...

Is it cheating if your having relations with your wife but think about another woman while getting the job done?

So you could cuddle with another women (as in someone you met an hour ago) as well as long as theres no "sexual undercurrents" involved?
