Husband likes to dancing with me, to see if women flirt with him

My husband of 25 years just recently informed me that when we go dancing, he doesn’t particularly loves to dance with me but he likes to see if other women check him out.
To hear this, broke my heart. I honestly thought that it was a bonding activity for him as well. Dancing with him made me feel loved and desired.
Now, I do not feel like going dancing with my husband ever again. Which is a shame since we are both ok dancers.
Anyone has any advice or a similar experience?

I am sorry that you heard him say this. He was truly serious, yes? I can see a husband saying this as a joke or a tease. You say he likes seeing other men checking you out? At least that makes sense. I think every man likes to see other men looking at the woman he is holding hands with or sharing a drink with. Gives him a feeling that he did good. What he said was hurtful and wrong and I am sorry you had to go through that. Don't let his words bring you down.
