Say you're involved in a relationship/married and someone knows this, but they still flirt with you and make suggestive comments. Even though you tell them off, they still continue doing so.

Should/would you tell your partner? Or do you think there's no need informing them?

It's annoying when people know you're involved with someone else and keep on flirting or drop hints at you. If informing my partner would cause problems then I'd avoid it completely and stop conversing with this guy that doesn't understand that I'm "taken". But, if I know that my partner wouldn't get upset at me (since it's not my fault) then I'd mention it so that he's in the picture.

I get that a lot and I find them pretty insulting.
It some how makes me feel that the other guy is finding me disrespectful or low since he assumes that there is a possibility that I will cheat on my husband.
I do tell my husband about it but that’s just because he is mature and wouldn’t do anything crazy. I wouldn’t tell him if he acted insanely about it and stopped me going to university for instance.

If couldnt inform the partner, will try to find some one else,my cousin or brother or any close one about it.

it should get stopped anyway, since you are involved

look harsh and strait at the them and ask in an abrasive way...

"sorry?..what do you mean by that?"

or act stoicly... keep mentioing the one you are into more often, and on any occasion bring to the one who is flirting the fact that you both have a very little in common..and give an ugly smile saying..."hmmm I wonder how come we have become friends after all these differences?"

I'm more likely to tell him if the dude who is doing the flirting is a friend of my significant other or someone in his family or social circle and I am sure he wouldn't do anything stupid. The purpose is just to keep him informed in case anything happens.

If it is any other guy, I wouldn't necessarily tell him unless if we're speaking casually and I see no harm in sharing that story. I would want to know who is flirting with him consistently, so perhaps he deserves to know too.

I'd only tell if he were following me everywhere... getting creepy..

An affective way is to inform your partner and then inform the authorities in concern. So if you’re a student at a university you would inform student affairs and they will handle the matter with the stalker. If your working however and am pretty much sure that many organizations are strict when it comes to diversity, inclusiveness and harassment policies you just need to approach HR about it & immediately they will handle the matter.

If the stalker is from the streets however then ROP will do just fine.

Keeping quite, hitting or replying back with swear words is definitely beneath u so don’t descend to that level. It will only bring them back and back again.

Happened to me once. I was chatting to this guy on MSN and my picture was on the display picture, and he said: "I wonder how it feels like kissing those lips"! I got really mad at him especially that he knows I am married and I immediately blocked and deleted him. I never mentioned it to my husband though. I took care of it myself.

If it's someone I'm bound to see for the rest of my life (an extended family member or a family friend) then I'd tell him only if the guy wouldn't stop flirting even after I tell him to stop.

If it's a random guy from the streets, I'll just tell him over lunch or dinner and we'll laugh about it.. I mean, what else can we do?!

The main reason I don't tell my husband about these issues because he gets furious and could kill.. If he gets triggered a little bit by jealousy, he gets really angry. Not with me though:rolleyes:

i wonder why you girls even deal with other guys for no particular reason , plus guys now days think in a devilish way , they prefer to make up a relationship with a girl who is already married , as they think that she would accept to lay down with them because she is already not virgin since the day she got married.

i dont know if you understand me or not, i'll give an example :

i know one guy who was trying hard with a newly married woman who's her husband works in a desert company for two weeks, there , so he was thinking of trying to attract that girl so he would sleep with her during these days where her husband isnt around, and to be honest some girls easily get deceived by such a guy ...

anyways since any girl is involved or married , its preferable for her to deal with guys who are related to her ,instead of putting her self in troubles by dealing with out siders.

am talking alot i hope you got my point.

slap him in the face and leave a five fingered mark on his face for days to come, so everybody will know he's a perv. that's what i teach.

I get your point but if I sense I could be weak and could slip, I wouldn't talk to guys. To me, there isn't a difference between a guy and a girl; they are all people! I know the scenarios you mentioned could happen but I am confident enough about myself and my husband trusts me so there's no harm.. Guys can try all they want, they won't get anything from me :hyper: i'm taken :p

lol at Jeff. that would totally teach them a lesson. i'd like to try that sometime in the future. :p

i don't know if i should tell or not honestly, things like this don't turn out the way you'd expect them to. should i keep him informed in case something happens? or not, just to avoid any reckless/uncalled for actions?

If the idiot who is flirting with me is also a good friend of my partner's I will first tell the idiot to stop and if not then will inform him of his ill fortune if he doesn't i.e. telling his friend, my partner what is going on.
