Flirt if you want a relationship. If you don't, then don't.
Is it wrong for Christians to flirt?

The YPA book has quite a section on this - it is highly advised that a man and woman should not even be friends, under the section ' DO platonic relationship [ or is it friendships ] really work ?nNow I remember offending a young JW many years ago 'cause I twice mentioned ( a slip ) 'talking to giurls' - he told us about his mate who all he could do was talk about going out with this girl soo " he walked away from him.". Think about that statement - God made us to meet and fall in love and surely the only date people in the faith against Gods will - he created man and woman to notice each other - to connect on an emotional , chemical and spiritual plane. If you're not looking I have always asked - what ARE you looking at ? It's what we were created to do !
Now theirs is the height of arrogance to assume that everyone is going to fall in love with anyone who shows them a little attention. But we're all human - the slightest thing and you can fall under someones spell for all eternity - what is that ? A piece of advice - if you steal this persons heart - they will be bound to you so - like alcohol love ( and flirting ) can have a bite like a rattlesnake.
It's hard work being human eh ?

What does being a Christian have to do with flirting? I think it is part of human nature. If you are looking of course...and I think you are, right?

I don't think that married people should flirt. If you wouldn't do something in front of your spouse, then don't do it behind their back. As far as single people go..Have fun!
