Does your husband or boyfriend look at other women?

My husband has a natural eye(starring) problem. Not just women it is men to that he looks at. He says he likes to monitor his surroundings. The problem is women think that he is looking in a totally different way. Do you think it is still disrespectful?

When i was with my ex i really didn't have a problem with him taking a glance at other women because he wasn't being all disrespectful,breaking his neck and all.I really wasn't even thinking nothing of it really because i knew he had me as a total package.lol

I consider myself to be a total package, but even that is not enough for some men

Yes he does. No, I'm not disrespected by it. It's human nature to notice other attractive people. I point them out to him sometimes for a joke :) I think people who are bothered by this are insecure in their relationship. Just because he's looking doesn't mean he wants to sleep with them, or finds them more attractive than you. Years ago, when still dating - this used to bother the HELL OUT OF ME! I would get really upset and hurt. I broke up with a guy who used to do this all the time. Later, I realized that just because a guy is looking doesn't mean it's a competition, it doesn't mean they are comparing or wishing "Gee, I wish Erin was thinner, or blonde, or looked like that" or whatever. Also, when being perfectly honest with myself, I have to admit that I notice other attractive men. It doesn't mean my husband is unattractive - it's not a comparison. It's a "gee, he's cute" and then that's it.

I disagree. I know I'm not the only woman in the world. I know I'm not the most beautiful woman in the world, and I know there are people more attractive, with nicer bodies out there. I don't want to be deluded. I don't want my husband to put blinkers on and think I'm the only person in the universe he's allowed to look at. Just because he looks at other women occasionally doesn't mean that he doesn't make me feel special. It's me he goes to bed with at night. It's me he provides for, when he's upset or angry or needs to vent - it's me he turns to. When he comes home from work and comments on something smelling good in the kitchen, or how nice the house looks, or how nice I look - I'm the one who gets the benefits of that, and there's no price tag for it. I don't care how many menus he looks at, because I know he's coming home to order - and I'm exactly the same way.

I think all women want to feel like they are the only women in the world. Roaming eys are disrepectful and I think everyone needs to try harder to make the person that they are out with at the present time to feel special.

I've never seen my husband look at another woman. Even when a really attractive woman walks by I'll look at him to see if he noticed and he's not even paying attention lol. But I do think it's disrespectful for you husband to look at other woman in from of you. Even if he doesn't mean to admire them, it can very easily be misunderstood.

I think people can look at each other with tact.. I do the 1 second glace and turn away to keep all problems down. Many times people look out of natural reflexes I do understand that.

he looks, and he will even say babe look she is hot. do i feel "disrespected"? not at all. no one can disrespect you unless you give the the premission to do so. i don't mind him looking at other women, that is human nature. as long as he keeps his hands to himself

The thing with my situation is that my husband is 6'8 and everybody notices it. I don't appreciate it. He acts a clown it I look at other fine men and I would love to look at them. Who doesn't love eye candy? ..lol It's out of the respect I have for him, I dont want to make him feel bad

I guess he does not look at them with a bad intension but ofcource they do look at other women and I guess its ok for them to look also, till ur love is strong you dont have to worry about anything. just trust in the lors and love ur husband with an unconditional love.

That is just a natural thing for all men to do. My hubby will glance at them but he doesn't stare at the continously which is fine with me. You know the old phrase you can look but you can't touch. I look at other men when I notice they are very attractive to me and once and awhile sneak a peek at their butt So it is the same thing. As long as he is not touching them and telling you hey look at that hot woman there is no harm in it at all It is just human nature

I know but I make sure that I go out of my way not to look at men, because he is so insecure. That's where the problem comes in. If I look at a nice looking guy, he would say " I see you all looking at each other."

Here and there, mostly when I point out a wierd looking woman or a way that a woman is dressed. It doesnt really bother me at all because I am very secure with my husband. We are all human and have eyes so to me it is just natural to look at others, males and females do it.
