Flirting however is only possible if the true LINK of love TO the own partner is missing. hence if the relationship with the current partner only is mental or contractual - marriage contract or similar - then there might be NO LINK OF LOVE at all. a link of love is a band that joins BOTH lovers PLUS God together.

If such metaphysical wedding band is missing due to a missing spiritual orientation of ONE or BOTH of the two lovers OR in case of OTHER. One or both feel detached from each other - without roots of love IN each other and hence search for an alternate source of love …

Flirting is a full metaphysical contact of love and exchange of love between two persons even if physical contact is missing between the two flirting ones. Flirting NEVER can be one-sided. flirting always is mutual and conscious. Flirting is the superficial game of love of a person to shallow and too weak in his love to enter a true love relationship - heart to heart - soul to soul - with anyone at any given time. A true love relationship always goes INSTANTLY beyond flirting into skin to skin love free of any restrictions or limits. anything less is but another ego game.

People flirt to get a positive response from another partner of opposite sex … a response they apparently are missing at home in their permanent relationship. If a partner is too complicated, too slow in responding or fulfilling to the needs of love of a given partner - then that neglect partner will search outside the relationship the confirmation of still being lovable and attractive or even beyond - a new full relationship beyond flirting.
