My FWH and I have been in recovery for 1 year and I was wondering what is considered flirting and when it becomes inappropriate. Thanks

Why don't you tell us what he's been doing and we'll tell you if it's crossing the line! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> My rule of thumb is if it makes you uncomfortable, it's probably not good.

Thanks, actually I don't think (that I know of) he has done anything, it was just something we were discussing when we were talking about our boundries, like what each of us considers flirting or crossing the line. We had some very small differences but agreed that if it bothered the other it wouldn't be done. I just hope that he sticks to that if it's something I'm uncomfortable with and he doesn't necessarily think it's a big deal that he'll still refrain from doing it. thanks for you input

I think if it is something you wouldn't do right in front of your mate, while holding his/her hand and proudly displaying your wedding ring, then it's not appropriate.

The body will often send you signals that the interaction is crossing lines....a racing heart, blushing, wandering eyes...etc.

If you feel the need to hide it, it is wrong.

Wantingtomoveon, I urge you and your H to read the following thread from START to END. I think it's very relevant to this discussion and your question: Flirting - when does it cross the marriage boundary?
