They will tell you how beautiful you are and how much they love you and then in the same breath they will turn around and drool over some other woman? I just don't get it!

Better yet, he needs to take a gawk and ogle at who he has standing right next to him and show "his lady" a little more consideration and respect.

Its funny, but I had a conversation with my BF last night, was about my sister actually going through marriage issues, and had several tangents But anyway. He said that when you first go out with your GF shes the most stunning most beautiful thing in the world, but as time goes on, you get used to it and the more see the inner beauty and thats what shines through... and in reality on the surface she looks the same as anyone else... but shes more beautiful than anyone else from the inside, shes still beautiful to you but you realise that the odd glimpse here and there is just that a glimpse, you have the most beautiful thing at home you could hope for, for all you know these pretty girls in the sreet are ugly on the inside... in short they are just that a pretty face, the true beauty is inside... I knew what he was getting at.
Hope that made sense, not sure that it helps... But remember you are beautiful to him, hes just looking for curiousty sake most of the time But the real beauty in his life is you at home. :o)
Take care xx

For goodness' sake!! How old are you??? He may well love you and he may well think you're beautiful but have you happened to notice how many other beautiful women there are around?? Millions of them. Just because we start going out with one regular partner, doesn't mean our basic attraction to the opposite sex gets switched off like a light. We are programmed by nature to be attracted to one another. That's how the species procreates and survives. That basic instinct doesn't stop because you love or care for a particular individual. He's only looking. You can look too you know. It's not a crime.

Reebe's right, you don't look at just him, do you? Not even just to glance at other guys a little?If he's looking at other women yet still telling you how beautiful you are, thats a good thing! It means none of them please him as much as you. If he does it around you and it bothers you, do something to get his attention and remind him who's the one he loves (and do it in a cute way!)

HI
He does love you and thinks your beautful, but looking occasionally at other women is pretty harmless, it's not like he's doing anything. Do you not look at other men? It's human nature to look at the opposite sex, all men and women do it even if they say they don't!
