    Meh, pfft.
    Flirting isn't always done with "that particular outcome" as the intended result, i.e. guilt isn't (shouldn't) automatically be a concomitant of flirting.
    It can be done for fun, as a purely social interaction, a game, self-reinforcement (to make oneself feel good), to make others feel good.

    My first husband wore his wedding ring on a chain around his neck, and his shirt top buttoned. He worked in fire control and men have injured, even lost their ring finger, due to mishap with tools/machinery, so it was a wise precaution.

    For this reason, a female new hire was unaware of his status, and boldly invited him to go for a coffee sometime, because, as she stated the matter, "You look rather interesting".

    My hubby replied in a kindly way, "That must be what my wife thought, also".

    The poor woman practically fell over herself at having hit on a married man, MY married man.

    There is a difference.

    I put a spell on mine.....

    I agree with Scheherazade’s analyses. Hellenologophobia seems harmless and insightful.

    I’m an avid hiker and I just purchased these bad boys.

    I was at a wedding recently and two women starting fist fighting over a man. One had on 6-inch platform heels. Her ankle snapped. It was a compound dislocation. Yuck!

    I like your boots. You go girl!

    True, I've had those before too, but you have to consider the state of your current relationship and how do-able the flirter is, spend a little time fantasizing about the fun and then return the favor with a big smile.

    No no no!

    It's a GAME. (Can be).
    Flirting isn't always (or even necessarily) about getting someone into bed.

    Absolutely, Dywyddyr.

    Flirting is very often intended to be a casual exchange of positive reinforing energies.

    On the rare occasions when I have cause to dress up, gentlemen invariably remark that I look very nice, and the other day, I had a compliment on my hair by a First Nation elder lady while we were waiting for the street light to change. In no way were these remarks intended with 'a particular outcome in mind.'

    I, likewise, give plenty of positive remarks to others, many of which could be construed as 'flirting', yet no one seems to take these comments as being 'hit upon.'

    I find that no matter what kind of shoes or boots you buy, if you pick up a good pair of insoles before you start trying them on. You will be much happier with the end result.'

    No matter how expensive any shoe or boot is, it will have a cheap shitty insole. Pull it out and put in the good one and make sure the shoe fits good with the insole of your choice before you buy it.

    If you are on your feet a lot and frequently have sore feet at the end of a long day. Do yourself a big favor and get good insoles.

    I seem to be lucky in finding footwear that has a good footbed right off the shelf, but one has to do considerable looking to find the right pair, as feet are so variable.

    For my work shoe, I have found a good style that seems to have endured in the marketplace. I always keep a new pair stashed ahead because of the importance of good fit in my considerably athletic job, which requires much clambering and crouching to accomplish. By the time the footbed is getting tired, the stitching is also starting to go, and they get downgraded to status of indoor/outdoor slipper at the ranch.

    In ranch workboots, I sometimes add a second felt insole to provide additional insulation from the frozen ground of winter. Neoprene topped, rubber soled slip on style works well for farm chores in all seasons until the temperature goes below -25C. At that point, I switch to serious paramilitary type cold weather footwear to prevent frostnip/frostbite.

    They are definitely NOT sexy, put highly practical. One has to be on very good terms with me to see my sexy footwear, lol....

    Depends on how old you are, for me and I think most people my age we don't really care about insoles lol because our feet aren't sore

    Unfortunately, our national forests are emerald green. I live in the emerald triangle. They don’t rape you here. They kill you.

    They might if they wanted something. Some things never change do they?
