Does it ever make you feel insecure when your boyfriend or girlfriend idolizes a celebrity?

Anonymous
Now, it's perfectly normal for people to have celebrity crushes! But some people take it to a new extreme when they drool over the celebrity. I won't deny; as a female who's already living in a superficial world where the sum of a woman's parts our NEVER enough, this can make me feel self conscious. I'm a pretty confident girl; very appreciative of what I have when it comes to my physical surface and the core of who I am. Yet, I am only human! It doesn't feel so great when my man praises and uplifts a woman for features she has that I don't possess. I can't help that I don't have a certain eye color or a certain cup size. I didn't get to design my own genetic make-up. Society and men already kind of pressure women to compete against each other in terms of desirability and attractiveness. You would think that your partner would be the last person you have to worry about making you feel like you have to compete and it's just really disheartening when he does. I try to maintain positive and individualistic, promoting my own special sum of all my parts and feeling rich in that. But it almost feels like one step forward three steps back when my man drools over another woman, especially a celebrity who's successful in awesome ways (such as singing, dancing, acting, ect).

Can any girls relate? If so, please share your experiences. : )
