Why does my boyfriend say other girls are beautiful?

[Anonymous]

Sometimes when my boyfriend talks about a girl he knows, he says that they're really pretty or for example, today, he was telling me about a girl we saw that he knew and said he thought she was drop dead gorgeous.. but he rarely ever tells me I'm beautiful... is there a reason for this? he must think I'm obviously good looking as well if he is going out with me? but when a guy thinks like that does he think that she's a hell of a lot pretty than his own girlfriend?

Seeing that you are still new to relationship and I am assuming your boyfriend should be roughly your age. No offense but it is something that males learn to control when they get older. We know as we age too keep comments about other females too ourselves. Majority of all males will always think other girls are pretty, hot, etc but the smart ones usually keep it to themselves and only share with our male friends. For your boyfriend he is not being considerate of your feelings, which is a common mistake for new comers. But as stated in the comment above, you probably think the same about other guys but are more discrete about it. Though this is different if he is older and more experienced, usually experienced males state such comments aloud for certain purposes such as developing jealousy, control, and other things of the like. Hope that helps.

He shouldn't be telling you this stuff. All guys are going to think this in their minds at some point in time about other women..it's natural. Just keep it to ourselves! Nothing wrong with it though as long as we stay on point and don't act on it. You're both still young yet.

I think he's just comfortable with you and expresses himself freely. Which is a good thing, he also probably thinks you know you're attractive since he's with you.

If it honestly bothers you tell him. It probably hasn't even crossed his mind what he's doing. Also if you two hang out a lot spending more time with you vrs his friends at this point, you are pretty much his girlfriend and his friend so you're getting all the comments some in which he would be telling his friends if he was with them instead of you.

Well, it works the other way too, for girls -- I'm sure you find other guys who are hot that isn't your boyfriend, and its not a bad thing ;) They may be attracted to that person physically, but it doesn't mean that they'd want to date him/her. And no, I don't think he'd date you unless you were also 'drop dead gorgeous' in his eyes :) So don't worry about it . I hope this answered your question ^^

He is immature and definitely does not care if his words hurt you. Dating such men for longer can make you emotionally messed up. You may like very much now but over a long run being in a relationship like this may turn you a totally jealous and unattractive woman. So chose right girl!
