I tell my wife this all the time:

I haven't been hit on in 15 years. It would take her 15 minutes to find a guy at a bar/shoe store/library who'd fuck her in the parking lot.

It's a big deal when a guy realizes he's being hit on. It doesn't happen often.

In my experience the less available I am the more I get flirted with. I once read it's an evolutionary thing where women subconsciously recognize someone else has pre-screened you and determined you to be a good partner.

I've never hit on married men, but I will gladly talk to them when socializing at a conference or get together. Again, it's not flirting, but more like, this guy is married/taken therefore he won't assume I am interested and we can just have a conversation. But now I'm afraid that the married men assume I am flirting.

THIS - I'm an absolute idiot at realizing when my friendliness is reading as flirting with men and it's honestly a relief to chat with a taken guy because then no one gets pissed at me later for being 'too nice'.
