I do not know if there is a purpose, i do joke around my female (non Muslim) colleagues that i married once but still have 3 vacancies open if they are interested.
But no sms, no filerty email, it always happen in front of other colleagues, does not mean anything at all.
Everything ends at that of work day only start again next. would you consider it flirting? Then it is really harmless.
But then, no-one is advocating that the “ethical codes and rules” of the workplaces be violated. The topic was about people wanting to flirt, not to get fired or sued or create a hostile work environment. From what I understand, most workplaces do have procedures and protocols in place to address violations of said “ethical codes and rules”; read the manual, then proceed. If your co-worker/s doesn’t/don’t like it, then it’s no longer flirting, it’s harassment and you should have the common sense to stop yourself before you no longer have a say in the matter.
Re: Flirting with colleagues Helps keeps Marriage Alive!
Yall need to take a chill pill.
re: subject at hand- why would a woman willingly engage in this flirting shirting stuff or have an affair wtih a coworker and then cry sexual harrassment when things go bad? shows alot about her own chaaracter doesnt it?
Doesnt make sense. Affairs dont start right off the bat do they? It always starts with flirting and progresses from there. Anyone that actually flirts in the workplace knows exactly what the difference is between friendly banter and flirting. Its one thing to joke around but another entirely to engage someone flirtatiously.
Considering flirting harmless is in my opinion…ridiculous. Do you flirt with people you find unattractive? No, because you dont want to give them the wrong idea. You flirt with people you find attractive and would enjoy attention from.
Assuming peoples’ feelings are in check all the time is assuming too much.
well geezer, its what I call a religious loophole.
misyar as i always maintained is when you want to make a miss a yar

only complete amateurs ‘need’ a muttah.
otherwise it can be crossing the i and dotting the t…
Some may not even be aware that they’re flirting. They could just be an extroverted personality. For those that are aware…and continue to do without any efforts to control themselves…it can cause problems.
For some people, they flirt because they desire being desired. It makes them feel good…especially if the recipient is responding positively.
It could be like an ego boost. Some may encourage the flirting because they like the attention, makes them feel good, makes them feel validated, makes them feel like they’re attractive.
Could be that something is lacking in the marriage…things could be getting dull and boring. Maybe needs are not being met.
