Question

Help answer this question below.

How do I get over that my boyfriend notices attractive women, while I choose to personally keep my eyes for him only? I never notice other men, why isn't he the same?

    There's nothing to 'get over' really. Men are visually stimulated initially, whereas women seek different qualities in a potential mate/father for their kids etc., By looking at other women he isn't putting you down, just following natural instincts, doesn't even mean he particularly fancies them. If he loves you he chose you both for the way you look and the way you are. What did you choose him for?

    • I suppose its the difference that I have trouble accepting in the male physiology. Thanks katespana.

    • That is soo not true! Men and women are visual beings and both look at the opposite sex and get turned on. It's nature!

    • Hmm... did you DR me by any chance? If so, please say why?
      As for men and women both being visual beings, of course this is true. But men's brains are differently programmed and its scientifically proven that males are more easily stimulated by their visual sense when it comes to being attracted ton the female. Women like to see good looking men, sure, but they also get very attracted to a guy's non-physical qualities and don't get so exxcited by images of, say, naked men in the smae way. Sorry, but its true.

    • Kokoro, I know exactly what you mean and its taken me years not to get wound up or jealous over this sort of thing. Believe me its definitely best to accept this sort of thing - unless its blatant and discourteous to you - and not see it as a threat. If you get jealous he will become guarded and less himself and that will cause problems in your relationship eventually. Have you thought, too, that it may be you that's noticed the attractive (or even decided that she is when she isn't to him?) woman and are maybe comparing yourself unfavourably to her? Be confident in who you are and just smile, he'll love you even more that way.

    • The question of DR was for blondie44 by the way - not Kokoro.
