writes:My husband doesn't mind me flirting with other men, has he fallen out of love with me? I feel as though he is pushing me away. When I mention so and so, he jokes around and says "are you flirting with him again" laughingly as if he were my friend and not my husband. I love him, I want our marriage to work, but why isn't he jealous? Has he fallen out of love with me?

 from this post i get the impression you are just flirting to test him? there should be no tests in a relationship, also why are you flirting with other people and not your husband?
if this is not the case i can only agree with caring guy in that hes just covering up his jealousy and dosent want you to feel like you arent trusted or any of that mumbo-jumbo

Maybe he is jealous, but he's just putting a brave face on. A lot of men use jokes and laughter to try and remove an awkward feeling they feel. There was a question on here the other day, and it was a guy saying that his girlfriend was flirting and he was putting a brave face on because he didn't want her to think he was jealous. Chances are your husband does mind, but doesn't want you to think he's jealous. If he's showing you he loves you elsewhere, then I bet he's jealous but just doesn't want to say anything.

It could be either a sign of a deteriorating relationship or a sign that it is strong and getting stronger. How is he treating you otherwise? If the relationship is fine (treats you well, pays the bills, etc.), then he may simply find your flirting to be exciting for him. He may find you attractive and get a kick out of other men recognizing this as well and showing you off. He may like to see the flirtatious you from the past coming out again. If things are otherwise fine in your marriage, then play along being sure to check as you go to see that he is still OK with what your doing. Even better, he may want you to have some flirtatious fun as well.
This is much better than the ususal story - a woman that stops taking care of herself and a husband that has no pride in his wife.
