It was aligned before with いちゃつく, as suggested in GG5. I'd prefer to keep those glosses to the fore.

  Comments: 
Removed "flirting" as it has different connotations of subtler no-contact play (sexy looks, implications in one's tone, etc.). Added the first three senses for the lighter, more "wholesome", less sex-adjacent case of イチャイチャ (think feeding each other food). Think the entry gives a more accurate picture overall this way.
