Do you still flirt with you partner after years of being together, even after the honeymoon years?

I just realized one of my exes and I still flirt when we talk. He's been my best friend for 10 years and there is no romantic potential left for us to explore (although there will always be a slight physical attraction left because we have a long history and know each other so well), but I realized even when we were together for 4 years, we still flirted til the last day...as if it was the first day we had met..which always kept it interesting and exciting.





Do you continue the flirting, or is it something that goes away after a few years?

we've been married almost 41 years, i still flirt! sometimes its the only way to get him to do stuff about the house, and sometimes i feel younger and girlier, and sometimes its just fun! we still hold hands when we go out, we still snuggle at the drive-in and on the couch, and we still would rather be together than out separately with our mates!
Reply:Yes, my husband and I have been together 7 years and we both like to make an effort for eachother and keep the romance.





I don't know if it's considered flirting though! I will put my favourite perfume and swish my hair near him (he loves my hair) and I think my husband looks so sexy when he wears these gorgeous clothes and leather jacke. When we are on the bus we will swilr our fingers round the other's palm - it's our secret gesture that means at this moment even tough we are in a public place we are saying I wish I could be in a deep embrace right now.
Reply:Oh, it's awful, that connection between my ex and I. : ) We try hard to keep it to ourselves when we are around his current ladies, a wife now. But, some part of us remains very close and it's always so good to see him again and get a hug. It's a playfulful, private place for us.
Reply:Twenty-one years later and still as flirtatious as day one...only better....more mature. He flirts with me all night long with his characteristic double meanings, his charming smile and hypnotic eyes a-glow. In a crowded room, I ...always return the favor...cheesing it up now for later... when we get home together safe and sound, and alone.
Reply:I have tried to be myself and flirt with my most recent ex, but she will have none of it. She just ignores me.





When I asked her about it she said she doesn't think it's appropriate. Strange how she wants to be friends but doesn't want me to be myself. But then if she loved me for who I am she wouldn't have broken up with me.
Reply:on occasion but not always. If you have something it will always come out again from timt to time. 10yrs. exp.
Reply:sometimes. i think it's good for the relationship and you should TRY to flirt.
Reply:I guess flirting is part of life apperciating what is good
Reply:sadly - most times it goes.
Reply:yes i do after 12 years together. It makes the marriage interesting and steamy.
Reply:I still flirt after ten yrs. I love to flirt with my wife! I love messin around and sayin cheesy stuff and sometimes surprisingly dirty little phrases like ".................Im not tellin you what I say to my wife its private. Yep I love flirting with her,.............allthough it is very rarely appreciated or returned. She finds it very annoying and lets me know it. One day she will appreciate it..... Thats what I keep telling myself, one day....
Reply:I hope it doesn't go away! :) I have been with my husband for 10 years and we flirt and tickle and kiss and...well we still do everything we did while we were dating. I have added a few things since then ( lol) but we get along just fine:)
Reply:Sorry.. I'ts been 2 years since we are together XD
Reply:7 years together and still flirting =]
Reply:I still get butterflies when I see my boyfriend. We live together, and have been together for 3 years.


We have never had a full blown fight, and love each other like crazy. There's still heaps of flirting, and I think thats how you know youv'e got someone special.
Reply:I don't flirt with my exes, but I certainly do with my partner. Not on purpose, though. It just sort of happens.





Lumpy, you're such a flirt ; )
Reply:Does me throwing a newspaper at her when she's on the phone forTWO HOURS ...count?
Reply:It goes away, specially when you are married to the person..after seeing them everyday, always being around them and living with them the attraction and excitement wear off after some time..
Reply:My husband and I have been together almost 14 years and we still flirt. People at his work laugh at us saying we act like we are 14 sometimes. We still go to the park and he pushes me on the swings. He likes to pick me flowers in the spring all the time. I usually have a house full of daffodils. Hell he still opens doors for me and pulls out my chair. He is 34 and I'm 40. Hopefully it stays this way.
Reply:I've been married to my husband for 10 years, and we still both flirt with each other! It's fun, its wonderful and it's just one of the things that keeps our relationship great.
Reply:we've been married almost 6 years and have two kids, while health and money problems have been plenty we have never lost our sense of humor, romance or playful flirting.


Dealing with reality, family and other issues you really can't let them die or you will slowly let the every day determine your marriage relationship. Your relationship should be outside those factors something different and the only way to do that is to keep it alive everyday.





I was told that its easy for a woman to turn her time and attention to children and the husband becomes a side line, I made sure no matter how much the babies needed me that I paid attention to my husband. Its important to remember that as much as I love my babies I choose HIM, we just got what genes gave us with the babies (not complaining very happy)


and when they go away to college and marriage, I will still have him. I would really rather have 20-25 happy years of shared memories than ending up with a stranger in the end.
Reply:hell no,mine didn't go away.its still great.we been together since high school and I'm 32 now.people let it slip away....not me.
Reply:Smile. We enjoy flirting with each other so much, we had turned it into an art form in last 18 years. Our friends and family members get a great kick out of our little performances. My child calls it: "daddy is a sneak up artist thing". He is always touching me, especially my hair (I do hate that, and he knows it). It is really embarrassing at times, because on most of our pictures his hand is somewhere in a vicinity of my breast, while I had no idea how it had gotten there in the first place. I on the other hand enjoy playing private practical jokes on him from time to time, and I get pretty creative. Dirty mind is a terrible thing to waste... Smile. We do have fun together. So after everything is said and done, he is still my favorite person in the world after 18 years of marriage.
Reply:My parents flirt with each other on occasion, often just to annoy me. They've been married over 21 years.
Reply:depends on the dynamics and chemistry - some yes, some no.
