    Emotional affair
    So if a married coworker seems to flirt with you and give you special attention and decides to stop, do you think its right to try and get them to continue the behavior?

    Well, while you've enjoyed the flirtatiousness and special attention, I believe the reason you're asking this question is because you already have an idea of the answer... my opinion, hopefully coinciding with yours, is that this cannot be right... someday, no matter what, we all wish to be married eventually, and when we do, we wouldn't want to have to worry about our partners while they're out.

    I wouldn't instigate special attention being brought upon you, although I know, it's nice.
    Just put yourself in the married co-workers spouse's shoes.

    Hopefully that helps.

    This is emotional cheating. Would you want/encourage YOUR partner to interact with another female in this fashion?

    Married = hands off.

    Hmmmmmm... let me see... married... co-worker... flirting. That sounds like a recipe for disaster. I would definitely not encourage this person to flirt with you. If you need attention, you should seek it elsewhere!
