Do you think its appropriate to always tell your partner that you have other admirers?

Well first of all your partner is going to look at you so deep he's going to know everything about you he's going to know how beautiful you are he's good and understand that there are many many guys probably looking at you even girls so he already knows this

He has it in the back of his head all the time to bring it Forward if he needs to if you tell him that you have many of others
Somewhere somehow that's going to be a form of manipulation to get something whether you're getting it from telling that to him because it's going to make you feel a certain way

Or if you're telling that to him to make him think he better do something for you or otherwise one of these other guys are going to take his place I would say guess what I would bet you have a lot of and I would walk out the door and I would just keep going cuz that's a game it's an unnecessary game I don't care who you are in this world when you get a girlfriend or a boyfriend you already know how beautiful they are how good they are so you already know that there must be other people that would love to date them but you're not going to bring that up as a matter of fact you let it go because you're with them and since you're with them there shouldn't be any unsecurities at all as a matter of fact you have to be confident and not worried about anything because you can't make somebody like you or love you and if you do it's fake or false so you might as well just walk away

Just depends on your intentions behind it , if you are telling them to make them jealous , than that’s inappropriate and disrespectful, but if you are telling them because it’s something that caught you off guard and you least expected it to happen , than yes you can share your experiences , overall it’s best to keep some things to yourself , especially if you don’t want to make your partner feel jealous

If that partner is your boyfriend, then yes, it is appropriate to tell the truth. A relationship that is not built on truth is a relationship that is bound to fail on short notice because there is a lack of trust between the 2 people.

If you want to withhold important information about yourself, then you should not be in a relationship in the first place because that would be the best way to sabotage the relationship.

Not telling something like that is only the first step in a long chain of lies because the temptation to cheat you current partner and seek with an "admirer" what you cannot get with your partner is way too important. Basically, that is what is going to happen in in a relatively short time because you leave the door open to cheating. It is only a question of time till it happens.

We know that already. It doesn't need saying.

[Zack-Bann]

Tell? Yes
rub it in his face? No


I think partners should be able to talk openly and not hide anything.


And while sharing your day you can mention the admirers that you turned down (because you should be turning them down, not keeping options open)

[molonski2]

I wouldn't say anything , because honestly I see no actual benefit in telling them , plus they probably already know.
Plus it's nice to have some admiration , it's how close you let it get I guess , both can be fun , different worlds.

[ChicoFromThe305]

Yea I believe so, just in case to not create any unwanted trust issues that can be prevented

[Yannae]

I believe so. It'll explain why I feel uncomfortable or awkward around that person.

[Jamie05rhs]

Great question. I have several admirers, but I don't have a partner.

[LunarEclipse433]

Probably inappropriate but if the relationship get serious then yes.

[Raydergman26]

Yes at times

[Anonymous]

Yes….
