When you go out, do you catch your man looking at other women? How does this make you feel? What have you done, if anything, to talk to him about it?

I am very curious how often this comes up in your relationships and how it affects you and your relationship. I would love to hear from all sides!

Yah my boyfriend looks at other women. He denies it all the time, but its BS.
im not the jealous type, and it doesn't bother me that he notices other women. I myself notice them, and I admire their beauty.
What bothers me is when he "stares", or does a double take, or turns his head to get a better view of her. It doesn't bother me that she is prettier, or sexier. I know there are better looking people out there. What I don't like is the fact that he looks, while I'm there with him.
I see many guys who would check me out or stare at me, while they are hand in hand with their girlfriend, or wife, and I feel bad for the girl. Because its like, hey your boyfriend is staring at me, and she doesn't have a clue.
So when my boyfriend stares at other girls, that is how I feel. Like the stupid gf.

Iv tried explaining that to him, but he just denies it still. And Iv realized its really not going to change.
I guess men will never understand how staring at other women makes us LOOK.
How would a man feel if his girlfriend stared at every attractive guy they saw?

I am really thinking that I have to stop my relathion with my boyfriend.
As I read here, I don't feel anymore I want to go out or do the things that we did at the beginning when I come to live with him.
In this house it was all with oictures of another women, movies (dvd) and it was really a kind of obsation for him I am sure.
He got ret of them (dvd) because I was really feeling offended all the times I asked him, why do you need to keep this in here? his answer was always, just If you go in hollidays to your country a day or so. I was not understanding it and he understood me.
Now, after those "first" points, also always that we sent out, or dinner. I asked him, do you still look at something? He said no, of course not! I was not looking anything, you don't see anything.

I saw in his computer, he saw to me because I asked, that during the days, when he is working is cheeking pages where you can see girls.

I asked him, why? is that need? and the answer was again. I am man and man do it!
With this answer I can really feel engry.

I was always feeling pretty and I always saw another guys looking at me, and they do now but since I am with him, I have lost all the confidence I had with me self, all the beauty I had and just because for me I am not enought, he is looking to make him feel better, happier.?

We almost broke up because of this and is something that is not going to change, I cannot chanche it from him and is the only think I ask to him.

Is very hurtful.

I need to know if the is a way to change it, or we just have to acsept and live with it as they say.

Yes. He definitely looks. It makes me feel like he wants to chase other women and that he is not completely satisfied with our relationship. I have mentioned it to him and I even joked about putting blinders on. It hurts my feelings. I have read about how it is natural for men to look, blah, blah, blah and how women should not feel insecure. I feel like there is plenty of time to look when he is not with me. I respect guys that do not look at me when they are with their wives or girlfriends.
I think.it is sad that men do this openly without thinking of the consequences to their relationship.
Sometimes people take their relationships for granted and some people may not even know how to have a deep, loving relationship.

My boyfriend does look at other women when we are together. At first I thought it was me being insecure but it has gotten to the point where I don't want to go out into public with him anymore. We have been together for over 2 years, and seem to be doing great in our relationship. He shows how much he loves me every single day, but this fascination he has with the women around him is very annoying to me. I know we all look and this is normal, but its like a nervous switch with him. Left, right, grocery store, gas station, the mall, driving up the road, everywhere ! with no thought as to how that makes me feel. I am not a bad looking women, I take good care of myself, and I do a good job taking care of him, physically, sexually, you name it, but he is beginning to make me feel as if I don't do a good enough job at it. How do I feel? annoyed, drop in self esteem, and sometime unsure if I am really the one he wants. I talked with him before things began to get serious about exploring his surroundings and go out to see what is out there (He is divorced from a 20 year marriage, and I am divorced from a marriage of 16 yrs) but he said that I am the one he wants to spend his life with, and has even mentioned marriage a few times. I tried to talk to him, and he denies it but that's a lie.

Yes, I feel like my husband looks at other women when we go out and it is very hurtful. As soon as he does it I normally say something like "umm okay I just seen you check out that girl over there". He always denies it. He's like "what girl? I swear I wasn't looking at anyone, what are you talking about, you are crazy". I think I would feel better about it if he would just admit to it but he swears up and down he's not looking at other women. Sometimes it makes me feel like I really am crazy. We fight about it all the time, I don't even feel like going in public with him because it always ends up with me feeling inadequate. I don't have a big head but I do think that I'm hottt, which makes these fights even more intense. What does a woman have to look like for her man to not look at other girls. I don't think it's fair to women to just say "well he's a man and that's what men do you just have to accept it". Why? Why do we have to accept it? Everything we do for our husbands and boyfriends all we ask is to not check out other women and they can't even keep their eyes in their head!

It is so hurtful. I am so tired of his behaviour that I do not want to go anywhere with my husband. He did not do this when we first met, but as time went on, he really started to look. Everywhere we go, grocery shopping yesterday was the last time. I do not know what I am going to do, but I have had it. We just got married in December and I am thinking about ending it if he does not stop. The strange thing is that many men look at me everyday and I catch them. Why does he need to continue to gawk at other girls/women? Why does he have to hurt me so much?

My boyfriend is very different from any guy I've ever dated. I am not the jealous type at all and even if I point out a girl who I find attractive he won't look. Almost as if he thinks I'm trapping him to start a fight. I believe it is totally healthy to check out attractive people. Insecurity is the only reason why anyone should ever be upset by it.

You know... I can honestly say my fiance has never laid eyes on a girl when he's around me. I watch him... OHHH yes I watch him closely just so I can attack him if he does something wrong haha. But... if he were to look I wouldn't get offended because it's natural I would totally tease him about it and pick on him about how hot he thinks she is. It's really not a big issue.

The issue is when he starts to cheat on you with the sexy little asian bikini waxing woman you saw in the mall a week ago.

Question Asker 'Watch so I can attack" This is not healthy behavior. What does the Asian waxer have to do with your man noticing the people around you. Did something happen here the rest of us don't know???? - 10 months ago

My ex of 2 years didn't really do it. I could tell a few times he would purposely not look at another girl when we went to the beach, or he would kiss my hand when we were with a group of friends and they kept talking about this "really hot girl" since he was like this I would never get bothered if he made casual glances. If a guy is really into you, you will be his focus.

I have been with guys who looked and spoke to other women but they did not leer at them or turn around and look at them in front of me. For a man to act 'disrespectful' in front of me is a definite 'not with me you don't !

But in the past there have been a few guys who I was eating dinner with and I noticed they were glancing at another woman at another table who was with a man - and I would just politely say "Do you know her from somewhere" ? This would bring them back to reality that they were dining with me and should be focused on me and I could see that they were embarrassed by it.

Now, the ex BF - we went to an outdoor bring your own seating and sit anywhere you can jazz festival last year and a woman sat near us and my BF stared at her just about the entire time! I was pissed!! At one point I said to him - "Do you have any of your photography business cards with you" ? He said yes, I said, then why don't you take one out and give it to that woman and maybe she can call you if she would like for you take her picture!

He attempted to 'get a little upset' with my comment, but I just ignored him. Later on when he still resumed (and I think she knew he was staring at her back/and side ( she would get up and leave for awhile, then come back) and he would resume his staring again. So when I had 'enough' I got up and said I was going to the ladies room and I just went and then left and went down the road by a beach area front and just stayed there for about a half hour or longer. I purposely left my cell phone in my purse because I knew he might try to call me to find out what happened to me. When I got back, I said very little to him.

It was dark when the concert was over and as we were taking pictures of the couple we had met there that was in front of us, he also got a chance to take a phot shot of her which I saw. So, at the hotel that night.......I would not let him touch me. The next day at his home when he was downloading the photos, he sent ALL of the photos taken to my email address EXCEPT the one that he took of this woman (which I had seen anyway and it was not ver clear - good!)...........so I asked him WHY didn't he send me her picture. He really got mad and said that it wasn't a good picture but if I REALLY wanted to have it he would send it to me! I said no more about it ; he had cheated on me previously and I forgave him and a few months later he cheated on me again with 2 other women..........walla ! I gave him the BIG BOOT! That's my long story (smile)

It hurts my feelings when guys do this. I think a guy should be focusing more attention on the girl or woman he is with instead of obviously looking around when he already has a woman at his side. I usually don't say anything to him when he does this though.

Mine doesn't.. He caught me looking at other guys in the beginning, when I was still pretty insecure. I honestly wasn't "checking them out".. I don't even know why I did it. Anyway, he was completely honest with me and told me that it really bothered him. It wasn't as awkward as it sounds and it definitely made our relationship stronger. The most important thing is trust.. If you're unsure about something, you should be straightforward with them. We don't have a problem with it anymore. We're at the point in our relationship where we are so comfortable that we like to joke around about being with other people.. Mostly celebrities. I would never cheat on him and I know that he wouldn't cheat on me. It's all in good fun.

Question Asker Interesting take. I think I personally look at everyone more than my lady, including men. However I would have no problems with her checking guys out and pointing things out to me. I just never considered it this way. - 11 months ago

I see him steal glances. I have no problem with him looking as long as he isn't gawking, because that's just disrespectful. If he did I'd knock him up side the head with my purse, lol. Seriously though, it really doesn't matter to me because I know I look. It doesn't mean I want someone else... it just means I have a pulse :)

Yes, I get jealous but I tell him in way just a subtle hint, Until I found out that men are species who just have eyes, From their point of view "they are just looking at the opposite sex just for a quick admiration, It's just a visual reflex, it doesn't mean anything " it doesn't mean they wanna meet the girl or go to bed with them, Just tell your guy and make efforts to look beautiful in his eyes "then tell him" I wish you would look at me like you used to look at other girls ;-)
