It made me feel sad and jealous in a strange way, like he was maybe compairing me to someone on tv. In my situation, I showed him that it made me mad and upset. He got the hint pretty quickly and completely stopped doing it. I think he was just testing me in a way to see if I would care or not. Just have one simple talk with him and let tell him to respect you and stop doing that. Say when you are with the guys? You can do that all you want to lol. When you are with me? I don't need to hear that because I don't think that's cool ;) Good luck sweetie and remember that most of these celebs have had surgery, boob jobs, spray tans and wear a ton of make up!! In reality? They look just like we do and no better. :D

He lacks manners and respect for you in this area. Would he, when summoned to his boss's office, pass loud gas while discussing business with him?
At dinnertime with his parents, would he sit back in his chair, reach his hand down his pants, and scratch an itch on his scrotum?
This has nothing to do with how good you are or aren't. He is just too familiar with you and lacks the ability to show respect to you. Sure, like the guy who itches or needs to pass gas, all guys notice beautiful women. That part's okay, but to stop conversation and gush about her in your presence is as rude as passing gas in the office and scratching balls in front of parents.
Tell him to knock it off before you find someone a bit more cultured than he is who knows how to act in his girlfriend's presence.

Hi hun.
This is not nice to hear and the best advice I can give you is to talk your boyfriend and tell him how you feel. Sometimes men just don't think. I don't think he is trying to hurt you, but it is hurting you and making you feel bad about yourself.
Don't put yourself down and ask how he would feel if you started doing this.
