Is my boyfriend harmlessly flirting with other girls?

A female , anonymous writes:

i borrowed my bf's phone to send a message as my battery was dead and just put my sim card in but his massages came up as they were stored to the phone memory, i accidentally read one (genuine accident as the girls name was the same as my friends that i was texting)

and it was from a girl (asssuming he told this girl he was going to the beach for the day) she replied saying "the jellyfish were no match for him and she be honoured to wax his board and told him it was a double meaning" it was a very flirty message and i laughed it off and said nothing to him

but now its still playing on my mind and i think its inapropriate as he's in a relationship with me for 9months. iv tried to put myself in his shoes and know iv had male friends who jokingly flirted with me but i put a stop to this once in a relationship, i dont think they even needed to be told to not do it.

iv not met this particular friend so dont know what im up against or if its anything to worry about.

i dont think he'd cheat, he told me he's a one woman man and i get along with his bro and bro's wife and i think his bro would give him a kick if he did the dirt on me but at the end of the day they'r family and im not and i dont know this girl.

so my question really is: can a man be in a committed relationship and still continue harmless flirting with other women?

and is it really harmless?

(PERSON WHO POSTED Q)

i did the shamefull (but unavoidable) thing that all women want to do, i got the number and rang it and its a male friend, some running joke.

he had his name abreviated in his phone from alan to al, i was textin my mate alison-stored as al.

i also feel bad as his mate was doin him a favour so that my bf could take me to the beach for the wkend cos iv been talkin about a wkend away for a while, iv not told my bf about my suspician and dont plan to, but its made me realise that i can ruin my great relationship all by myself, no other woman needed!!

There is no such thing as harmless. Flirting is exciting...and it makes a long-term relationship look dull in comparison. And eventually people act on that flirting and people get hurt.
