Though there is a certain amount of validity to the idea that SOME married guys are constantly on the prowl for extra-marital sex, I feel like I am constantly being judged by that standard. Yeah I flirt. Its all in fun. I get to know the ladies I flirt with well enough beforehand so that they understand that. I don't flirt with ones I just meet. In my job I have to talk to strangers quite a bit, a lot of them women. We will be having a nice, relaxed conversation then I mention I am married and all of a sudden everything gets tense, frigid, and impersonal. Its like they are afraid that at any moment I am going to try to seduce them or that my wife will come up from behind and stab them or something. I suppose there is merit in women being "cautious" around married men. I just feel like I am being maligned for something I am not guilty of. So what am I supposed to do, wear a sign that says "BEWARE. Married man." so they won't talk to me by mistake. Yes I wear my wedding ring 24/7. Oh well. It is what it is. Guess I am mainly just venting.
PS. I got to thinking and it could have something to do with women not wanting to throw away good flirting on an already taken guy.
