Men look at women so much that I think half the time they aren't actually aware they are doing it. Just tell him it makes you uncomfortable when you are out and about with him and maybe he'll just tone it down a bit. Of course you do realize he'll be agazing when you aren't with him, right? This is a "no biggie" for women who are comfortable in their own skins, but if you have some esteem issues maybe this is the ideal time to work on them.

I think you need to get over it and leave it, stop mentioning it. All men find this behaviour you are displying high-maintenence and yes, they will see you as insecure. I suggest you focus on something else when he does it, anything.

It is irritating when someone continues to lie about something you know to be true. But he does know he is doing it and it has nothing to do with you or your confidence.

Exactly what female anon says at the bottom.
He won't own up because you continually corner him with this same question. If it bothers you that much, tell him you know he does it and that you want him to stop doing it in front of you. Just don't ask the same question over and over, because that's why people end up lying.

If it bothers you, tell him so. If it doesn't then why corner him with questions?
