Man, I LOVED that article. There is a girl in my hall who is KNOWN for flirting, without caring about anyone she flirts with. (Trust me, I know....she did this to my husband years ago, when he was going through rough times...totally took advantage of him. And no, we were not together then.)
I kept looking over at her during the meeting (discreetly), and I swear I could see her cheeks getting redder and redder.
the only thing i didn't get in this study is how they gave the example of Jacob flirting with his wife. then in the next paragraph flirting was defined as showing attention to the opposite sex without intention to marry. if a married couple is flirting, how is this definition correct? i don't get it.
I don't have the article in front of me, but i think what it said was "there is room for proper amorous behavior" (then they mentioned that example and how its okay for married couples to display "amorous behavior". but i dont think they called it flirting. the word "flirt" really means to deal with playfully, not thinking.
