No ‘Flirting makes life far more interesting’
Mandy George, 41, lives in South Tyneside with her husband, Sam, 41, and their boys, aged 15, 11, and seven.
I’m happily married, but does that stop me sending the occasional flirty message? Absolutely not.
Flirting is a bit of harmless fun. It’s nice to get a confidence boost and to be reminded other people find you attractive outside your relationship and after kids.
While some would instantly ditch their partner for even thinking of flirting with someone else, it doesn’t bother me or my husband. It’s just another form of banter and sense of humour – one of my favourite expressions is the ‘That’s what she said!’ retort – and he understands when I send these types of messages to other men (and women) it means nothing. I’d never take it further.
