Is online flirting, when you know your S.O. disapproves, OK because you "are only flirting online and not in the real world"?
My opinion (surprise, surprise) is that it's not OK, period. It's said to be OK because it's not face-to-face, and online it's just fun and games.
I call bullsh!t. People meet online friends in person all the time. They even meet their future spouses online. The "it's only online" argument is bogus.
I would also imagine that many of those who feel it's OK would be less than eager to have their own S.O.s discover their activity.

You love your wife, but have issues with her being flirtatious on a BB.
So, you start a thread on a BB about being irritated with your wife's being flirtatious on a BB.
Sorry, but you two are either full-of-sh*t and are just doing this for some sort of perverse fun, or you two have some issues that perhaps would be better dealt with offline. [Reply]
