My boyfriend says he admires other women's beauty. This makes me feel hurt. Is it wrong to feel hurt??

I wish he had eyes only for me... Like I do for him...

Feelings aren't wrong nor right. It's what you do with them that can be either or a mixture of both.
basicgirl12 · 22-25, F
@Miram he cheated on the person he was with before me to be with me.
Which I didn't learn of until months into the relationship.

@basicgirl12

Then that's probably why you're taking it this way. It's reasonable to think he'd do so again and you should totally discuss that with him.

Lying to you and her wasn't okay.
basicgirl12 · 22-25, F
@Miram it wasn't okay. He says he's changed though but ... Clearly I can't trust him
Ryannnnnn · 31-35, M
He still chooses you though, so if anything its a testiment to how much he likes you. Most married couples find other people attractive, the healthiest ones can talk about it.

@Ryannnnnn i want to agree with you but what i've read men admitting in deep web forums and on this website... i stick by what i said😹
Ryannnnnn · 31-35, M
@DeluxedEdition People on forums and here aren't normal people though haha. It's actually the opposite, when you make something taboo its more likely to be a thing.
DeluxedEdition · 26-30, F
@Ryannnnnn i sure as fvck hope so😐 but you're not wrong lOLLLLLLLLLLLL

Tell him you think his best friend is hot

Well hurt because he told you? Yes.. That's a bit insensitive of him..

Hurt because a man admires beautiful woman? No.. That's not something he can control.. Just as woman cannot control it when they admire a really good looking guy..
@basicgirl12 exactly!

The man I loved was plain... Not visually attractive... But to me... He was everything.
The sexiest man in the world.

It didn't stop me seeing visual surface beauty in others... But no one was as deeply beautiful as him

@OogieBoogie [quote]It didn't stop me seeing visual surface beauty in others[/quote]

There you go.. My point verified..

Oh and i never said woman are in love with men because they find them physically attractive.. The same goes for men who do not love woman simply because they are physically attractive..

Physical attraction and Love are two very different things..
@Adstar yes, I agree.

Phjsical beauty is a rare anomlly.
Women and men both look.

But women Do not put the importance on physical beauty that men do.

So don't judge us by your standards.
Looking is one thing... And he's being honest.

Who does he come home to?
Who does he give his loving to?

I get you're hurt... And you need to tell him that it makes you feel this way... But don't deny him his honesty.

All men perv
They are Visual creatures.
A woman knows when she has her man's attention. If she has it and he looks at porn sometimes she probably won't trip. But if she doesn't there's a problem. @OogieBoogie
Humans are visual in general so marriages are visual too. @OogieBoogie
@Spoiledbrat okay... Justify it how you want.... I don't understand the multitude of dynamics at work here.

And I'm sure its way. More complex than what we are taking about.

I feel for you, I really do.

Being emotially starved is.... Fuck... It's one of the worst forms of punishment.

So I can't condemn you for seeking it elsewhere.

I think... Our perspectives are a little different.

But I understand the Emotional neglect.

I'm fact... New studies are showing that neglect is worse than abuse. At least abuse acknowledges a person.
Neglect denies your existence

It's the cruelest thing to do some one. 😔

If he is that obvious about it then you should move on and leave him to his girl watching

It's not wrong just point out the guys you find attractive.
Some things just shouldn't be shared between lovers.
In what situation did he tell you this? Was he saying it to hurt you or make you jealous or did he say it in context during an open and honest discussion about the topic of attraction?
basicgirl12 · 22-25, F
@TopOfTheWorld the latter yes
@basicgirl12 in that case it doesn't sound unreasonable to me, just honest and realistic. You can't help your feelings but I hope the hurt soon fades and it doesn't harm your relationship.
That's what my husband used to when I was younger. I used to hate him.
basicgirl12 · 22-25, F
@Spoiledbrat did he stop saying it?
He did after I cheated on him. @basicgirl12
BigBulge · 41-45, M
You're jealous. Jealousy is an incurable disease that will only break your heart.

Guys say this when they want to make you feel insecure

Punch him in the ding Dong
DDonde · 31-35, M
Have you ever found another man hot besides your boyfriend?
basicgirl12 · 22-25, F
@Jenny1234 crazy cause it's rooted in hard logic that you can neither understand nor stomach.
DDonde · 31-35, M
@basicgirl12 There's no logic here
Jenny1234 · 51-55, F
@basicgirl12 you’re too young to have figured anything out yet. Let’s have this discussion again in 15 years when you’ve gained more relationship experience.
uncalled4 · 56-60, M
There are a bunch of double-standards in life, and here is one of them: it's ok for a woman to drool over a man in the presence of her SO, but the inverse is [i]verboten.[/i] It is what it is.

By the way, I don't buy for a New York second that you are attracted to one person, sorry. Sounds like you might be better at keeping it under control than your bf, which is respectable and mature.

Me, I have to hear about Hugh Jackman constantly from my gf. I'm not Wolverine, so I don't feel that threatened.
basicgirl12 · 22-25, F
@uncalled4 well, no. I'm not attracted to other men. I don't admire other men's looks. If you don't want to believe it, there's nothing I can say to convince you. Have a good day.
iamonfire696 · 41-45, F
We are humans, just because he is with you doesn’t mean he won’t find another woman attractive. It’s human nature. You are really telling me that you find no other man attractive because you are with your boyfriend?

Be honest and real about this. If he is comparing you to other women, degrading you or seeking out attractive women that’s completely different.
