Why re some persons trying 2 bring English Lang. in this issue. D post said flirting like cheating get it right. Online flirting is wrong believe u me in wat ever manner as regards d post. Exchanging phone contacts, calling each other always, saying words like i miss ya wanna c u, love yaaa with online frnds. Thats a big error |

Efemena_xy: The responses to this thread are all hogwash!This is a logical error. That it happens on nairaland does not make it right. The fact remains that; -if your partner starts online flirting, then there is a VOID which has to be closed -He/she is already cheating cos he/she is satisfying that desire online. The probability that he/she will eventually do the real thing is 99.9 percent. |

coogar: May God bless this Coogar and keep increasing him in knowledge and wisdom slimyem: Nobody is trying to see what's not there.... If we are gonna use big big words in public, at least we should find out what they mean first 1) First you incorrectly accuse Coogar of playing semantics which in layman's English means the evolvement and radical change of the meaning of a word. A common example of semantics is the word "BAD". It used to mean "bad", but now means good/wicked/badarse etc. 2) Coogar never intoned that flirt now means something else, all he correctly said was that flirting also meant bantering 3) You claim above that the word "flirt" is different from the word "banter" and even provide the dictionary meaning. 4) Yet in the dictionary meaning of "banter" which you provided is the word TEASING, which also according to dictionaries in the same league as the one you provided, "also" means flirting. 5) In linguistics, the word "flirt" is an "ambiguous" word i.e. it has more than one possible meaning, and can be used as a noun or as a verb. 6) There is online flirting of the amorous kind intended to arouse sexual interest and done in secret and out of the earshot of everyone (JUST LIKE THE OP DESCRIBED) 7) There is online flirting devoid of any sexual connotation aka the witty, sharp, lighthearted good humoured banter conducted in the open on Nairaland by some trifling daughters of eve who would not leave my Husband Sagamite alone for me 8 ) Coogar flirted with the idea of wearing his blue shirt or his pink shirt to his first date with Busybody. Does this mean Coogar has an unhealthy fetish and sexual inclination to clothing items i.e. Does that make him an Objectum sexual or a paraphile 9) Idowuogbo and Ileke-idi have been flirting online with my 2 years old son since he was 3 months old, and he is set to e-marry them this December, having just saved enough to buy the sleeping mats they are going to be sleeping on in his room, because he refuses to share his babycot with them. Does this make them a peterfile 10) Should i go on . . . Na wah for this new art of intepreting out of context oh, na real war |

@Busy-body. hmmn.. "semantics" is a really big word...huh? Madam,in your bid and hurry to rip apart my unpopular non-support of the online flirters' club and my supposed misuse of a word ,you failed to digest what was clearly spelt out in my post Isn't "semantics" also a branch of logic concerned with words similar in meaning...which exactly was my point that failed to register with you? 2.Coogar inferred...(please check all posts of mine he responded to) that what was going on between Sagamite and you bunch of women was "just online banter" as against me defining it as flirting....which was was birthed the post you are critiquing pointlessly..!Check again! 3.I did not CLAIM that "flirt" is different from "banter".I was alluding that it meant the same or almost the same thing!! 4.See number 3 again and re-read my post again!!! |
Re: Let's Talk About Online Flirting... by slimyem: 11:53pm On Nov 30, 2012 |
5) In linguistics, the word "flirt" is anThank you for the schooling but Madam,i really do not have a need for it as i knew exactly what i was saying when i used the word and it was in no way out of context....! Blame your "over-sabi"ness for getting the better of you before allowing you to process a few lines of a simple and straightforward post. Once again,you have failed to understand that this topic is/was expressly about the "married and online flirting" and my posts on this topic was my opinion of "married people and flirting online" which was in no way excessively critical! 10) Should i go on . . . undecidedThere's no need but please get a job as a school teacher as you seem revel in the need to school people critically. ...and na real wa for this new art of quoting and misinterpreting one's post completely oh..na real wah!! 1 Like |

Oh, slimyem vs busybody? This is great. Let me learn some new english and grammatical constructions here. Please dont stop |

Lmao! Nothing wrong with online flirting. . People take life to seriously and judge too harshly. Anything anyone does off and online is not my problem. Plus let the marrieds enjoy small outside of their normal lives now. As long as the people that matter in their life are not complaining, wetin concern me? |
Re: Let's Talk About Online Flirting... by ifyalways(f): 4:46am On Dec 01, 2012 |
Nothing is right or wrong in marriage anymore so long as the 2 concerned parties are OK with it. Gone are the days of set rigid rules meant to fit "all" What I see as flirting may come across as a harmless banter to some. Naturally, when it gets to the stage of "exchange of phone numbers, offline meet ups" then its obvious one or both parties want more . . . 2 Likes |
Re: Let's Talk About Online Flirting... by Nobody: 7:25am On Dec 01, 2012 |
EDIT Erm ok. All these grammatical gymnastics is getting in the way of things. while I have nothing against flirting especially amongst singles it is a different ball game when it involves married people. my thought though: if you can't comfortably flirt in the presence of your other half then the red flag go up. heres an observation . . . many of the people who see nothing wrong in online flirting happen to be married women. . . 1 Like |
Re: Let's Talk About Online Flirting... by tpia1: 7:41am On Dec 01, 2012 |
not my business, i am not anyone's guardian or bodyguard around here, i dont get paid to monitor people [unlike some others], not everyone claiming to be married actually is married, why should i poke my nose in the affairs of grown people, some are simply winding others up with pretend play or pretend flirting, how do i even know what gender you are- i only know what gender you claim to be, some are yanshing each other outside of here, then come online and act like the flirting ends on nl, juju people dey here, spiritualist dey here, all sorts dey here, na im i go dey put mouth for wetin i nor know? even many of the so-called christians in this place are anything but [never mind their thousand threads per day in religion section], i should now come and be checking to see who is "flirting" with who? i might as well go bug their toilet! Check to see how many bm per shift. some will even be both the flirter and the flirtee on the same thread. Both fiance and fiancee, husband and wife, male and female, same person, multiple ids. |
Re: Let's Talk About Online Flirting... by Nobody: 7:52am On Dec 01, 2012 |
Lmao! See guilty conscience wants to finish some people! Online flirting is online flirting ojare, stop trying to sugarcoat it. Most of the so called 'banters' u say here,you probably cnt say it in the presence of your hubby/boyfriend to another guy. That makes it wrong. Shikena. 3 Likes |
Re: Let's Talk About Online Flirting... by Kobojunkie: 2:16pm On Dec 01, 2012 |
Ms.JuanMata: Abeg tell them oo!!! The @OP is very clear on what he means and banter is not flirting. Banter can be flirty but the two words are not the same. Not according to the dictionary. They are not synonyms. |

What's wrong with coogar and BABE! I thought they have an agreed open relationship...please my friend coogar wetin happen? BTW, kobojunkie baby... how would you like your eggs in the morning? scrambled, fried or Fertilized |
Re: Let's Talk About Online Flirting... by BABE3: 7:15pm On Dec 01, 2012 |
^^^ what's an open relationship ? |
Re: Let's Talk About Online Flirting... by Kobojunkie: 7:17pm On Dec 01, 2012 |
good one! I do wonder if some of these "married" women would say the exact same things if they were sitting in the same room with the person they are married to and the other person they happen to be flirting with. Would the conversation still go the same way? |
Re: Let's Talk About Online Flirting... by slimyem: 8:06pm On Dec 01, 2012 |

@Slimyem What is it with the hysterics and theaterics!!! This is still a public forum right, so if you are gonna stick out your neck to deride Coogar's post as playing semantics, why are you getting your knickers in a twist when someone else pulls up your post for your straw man's argument!!! You can dish, but you can't take huh!!! slimyem: It is you we should be asking again slimyem: @Madam,in your bid and hurry to rip apart my unpopular non-support of the online flirters' club and my supposed misuse of a word ,you failed to digest what was clearly spelt out in my post Quit it with the verbosity... There is semantics, and there is semantic field. The fallacious lexical non-stunt you tried to pull up there with Coogar is chockablock full of lack of deductive reasoning, end of. Statistical speaking, the "respondents against" are more than the "respondents for", so where did you pull out your unpopular fallacy from slimyem: Coogar posited that not all definition of flirting has a sexual connection and are hence immoral, that it also means lighthearted bantering, you quoted the definition of both implying that they mean the same thing, I said Coogar is right meaning you are in the wrong You are the one who has a problem with grasping the concept of equivocation and semantic shift, so should not be the one sticking out your neck to correct someone in public, which was what you were trying to do, and had thought you had done with Coogar. slimyem: Keep your hair on, you posted quite a few times on this same topic, THE ONLY POST OF YOURS I PULLED OUT WAS THE ONE YOU CONDESCENDINGLY ACCUSED COOGAR OF PLAYING SEMANTICS YET YOU WERE THE ONE WHO GOOFED BIGTIME BECAUSE FOR A WORD TO HAVE A NOUN AND A TRANSITIVE VERB DEFINITION, THIS SIMPLY "MEANS" THAT THEIR MEANINGS ARE AUTOMATICALLY SEMANTICALLY DIFFERENT i.e. Coogar is right and you are just full of hot air. |
Re: Let's Talk About Online Flirting... by coogar: 7:59pm On Dec 03, 2012 |
jesus christ - see vocabulary! like i have said, it's very wrong for people to opine online banter is the same thing as flirting. some of us are mature enough to know it starts and stops on nairaland.....funny how people read meanings to a non-event! omo ibo's observation can also be reversed - many of the people who feel online banter is the same thing as infidelity are also single. the only deductive reasoning here is single folks are jealous of the married folks......single folks feel left out.... slimyem and her army should up the ante - maybe, just maybe una go get 35 online husbands like busy-body.... |
