My dear, this is the bone of contention...Women seem to think that the male instinct can be switched off. Eti once you are married you will go blind and not 'see' beautiful women.

Men are not like women, a married woman may feel disrespected when a guy tries to flirt with her, for a man, he may flirt without a 2nd thought.

I know the femme fatales here may want to preach equality, but there is no sure way that shows a woman's subservient nature than an engagement ring - Even the most rabid feminist, will allow to be marked as spoken for, while the guy has nothing showing he's spoken for - she will go through life giddily, showing she is 'owned', while the man is announcing nothing - The irony of female power

Even the saint of the saint cheats. Ofcourse he will never tell you and will do all he can to cover it up.But as long as he is a man, he will cheat. Even if its a one time event.Its still cheating.
Define the cheating, then set standards against it - What might be a flirt, may be construed as emotional cheating, to another emotional cheating needs to run for some time with a particular person, and not 'party flirting'.
