Does it often happen in Ireland
why should you fear anyone except yourself if this chews you up and make a scene then you are the one who loses.
look at this way its a kiss so what friendly, just look on the other side you can take the prize home for love.

Believe it or not Jealousy is intricately intwined with Love and they are inseparable...you cannot get jealous over someone you dont have any feelings for or care about...the very fact that you can feel a twinge of jealousy when someone 'steps on your territory", love wise, is in fact a sign you care about that person! Ironic but true....In fact i will go so far as to say that if my current partner, if i had 1 that is, lol, didnt feel jealous if some woman came and lavished kisses on me or asked me out on a lunsh date, i would be very concerned and worried about her that she's NOT jealous

well, darn, that is what the problem was with me....i was not jealous. true enough, but, i think that if you trust someone for good reason, then jealousy does not hit unless you know for sure you have a reason to be jealous. not that i would appreciate somebody putting thier mitts all over my boyfriend (if i had one ), just because.
Happens all the time here, Portugal is a kissy, kissy country and yes guys I haven't seen for a long time come up to me give me a hug and kisses.....I think it is a matter of trust, if you trust your partner it shouldn't make any difference.
Only now with all this swine flu going about I mostly back off and would probably ask my partner to do the same

as far as your scenario i will find out their history and based on HOW far in the past she is--like was he sleeping with her while he was supposed to be with me--HE would get punched
if she is doing it because she can she will get politely reminded that i DONT pick on people my own size
I don't go looking for trouble but it normally finds me pretty easily

It would depend on how she responds to his kiss, how she acts after the kiss that would mostly determine my reaction.
Generally, if a guy came up to a woman I'm involved with and gave her a friendly peck, a hug and a howdy, that's fine. But if it were obviously and intimately steamy, then it would be rude. And if she was completely taken in and giving the same to him, well...

I'd be curious .... for it cold be simply an old friend, family member etc. that they haven't seen in a long time. I would think that my partner would do the courtesy of introducing me as well - then I'd find out exactly who they were.
Would I make a scene? No. Would I be suspicious - probably only if there had be warning signs before and then we'd have a talk to get things straight.
Truly, I can only control myself - not the other person. So I need to kick him to the curb - I've no problem doing that because life is too short to waste it with someone who really deep down doesn't want to be with you.
That's what I find frustrating is why so many people are miserable but stay in relationships. If they put as much effort into the relationship as they do trying to find someone on the side - they wouldn't need to be looking outside of their marriage for companionship. Any relationship will have its ups/downs and most times the reality is that people simply stop trying to make it better because they don't feel its doing them any good. People need to take responsibility for the relationship/partnership and keep talking to resolve their differences.

Well first off... who just walks up to someone who is with another woman/man and plants one on their face? Depends on the kiss. If it's cheek, okay that's tolerable. If it's full on lips with the hug ending in butt grab. I'd be jealous if he was into it, otherwise I'd be pissed that someone has the balls to do that. Definite consideration of punching her in the face.
So the actions and emotions I would have all depend on the details.

Well said. I feel the same way.
I would only add that if in asking Questions, I found that He was cheating, we would have a very long discussion that night with the Coffee Pot on and figgure out, what is missing in our relationship that he woulf have felt the need to cheat, What we were going to do to fix it and where we went from there, if at all, if He wanted to be with her over me then I would let him go.

Yes, if u love the dated person really, as when u fall in love with someone, u will look like a blind person and rarely make the precise judgment for such situations.
