oldbiker agony auntHi,

Altho' I have been married for 30 odd years, I still look at other women when we're out together. I am not comparing them with my wife, I may try to justify it by saying it's natural. I know it used to upset my wife in the early years of our marriage and I was embarrassed to admit that I had looked at others, altho' I knew I was fooling nobody. My wife was not big busted and was probably insecure because of that and I had to tell her that I had married her for more than her physical attributes. Altho' your husband may deny what he is doing, it may be some help to realise that he married you and that should be because he loves you for all that you are, your personality, your looks but mostly YOU!

All the best,

Oldbiker

I think all men are born lookers some more than others. I would not focus on it too much, just let him look. Maybe you can do a little to divert his looks to you, just a thought . good luck

Wisdom is right, as long as both of you follow that rule "never act upon it", then there should be no harm.

When you look ahead of you, it is easy to spot others. Maybe if he either attached a mirror from his head aimed at you, or if he were blind folded and you guided him where he needed to go (art class I had), then he wouldn't look.

Laura1318 agony auntTell him , he can look but don't lie.

Tell him it is not his looking but it is his lying which you take offense.

Then next time , he won't lie to you and you wont have to ask him that question.

All or most males look at other women ,

if they don't look then there is something wrong with him.

Though he should be trying to have eyes only for you, he is created to notice beauty in other women...that's how he found you. There is a respectful way to do this, and an disrespectful way.

I suggest you read the book "For Women Only" by Shaunti Feldhahn...it will really help you with this, I think.

BigSis agony auntAngelina, you cannot go through life asking your husband why he's looking at other women. It's a natural instinct. Of course he's going to tell you he wasn't looking because he knows you don't like it or you get upset with him.

As long as a man committed in any relationship ~ be it his girlfriend, fiance` or wife, just looks but not touches, surely he can't be doing any harm. You can't make him cover his eyes for the rest of his life.

My mother and father had a very loving marriage for 50 years, they held so much trust for each other and whenever there were other women around and my father would naturally look, I always remember mum saying to him, 'You can look but don't touch!' and that suited them fine.

I'm sure you are worrying over nothing.

You take care now.
