I was out last week with my girlfriend that I've been with for nearly 15 years, at my mate's club.
Anyway, some nice looking 25 year old'ish starting chatting me up.
She does not like it, but I do.
I feel like a schoolboy again. I now have initials after my name. groucho MLC, mid life crisis.

I hope I grow up quickly as this is dangerous, but exciting.

Is this rhetorical?

Seriously, nothing wrong with a bit of harmless flirting, not such a good idea if your other half is there IMHO.

Nah, my girlfriend would find it funny! Flirting is fine, as is window shopping - it's when you start testing the goods that the problems start!

Tricky situation this. On one hand it wouldn't hurt I guess if your lady knew that you are still attractive and could pull, for want of a better word. In this respect it also helps that this girl sounds younger than you. Extra bonus points for that.
On the other hand, if you so much as let on you are half interested and it's nothing more than silly flirting, then you are playing with fire my friend.

Everyone loves to flirt and be flirted with. If they say they don't, they are lying. If your girlfriend got the hump, it is because she is insecure.

Hook. Line. Sinker.

If I (and my girlfriend) didn't already know Emma then perhap you'd have a point.

Actually, I would have said it could turn out a whole lot worse if your other half were not there, and later found out from someone else. At least if they are there, they can see that it is harmless fun.

Wierd that. It's almost exactly the pattern my and my better half went through when we first met.

Good feeling to be secure isn't it?
