I just met a lady who met her husband at work --- and so did both of her sisters.
i think that flirting is ok in the office (or anywhere) as long as it doesn't diminish anyone's dignity.
How do I disagree with this concept of flirting? No!
Goddess: How interesting!
Asiansmiles: I agree.
Shi: If you had disagreed, I would have been shocked. ;-)
Flirting is a way for some to give a compliment, while harassment takes a way one's dignity. Those are two very different things.
Emmanuel: Excellent point. It seems to fit in with what AsianSmiles is saying.
Flirting and playfulness can be wonderful things.
Dr. Deb: Ah, the joys of playfulness!
