especially when they are with their girlfriends!? I think it's so disrespectful for a guy to stare at other girls while their girlfriends are PRESENT!

When you're in a relationship, you shouldn't be staring at other people in a flirty manner whether your partner is there or not. And when guys stare at me, it doesn't effect me much unless they say something, since I don't know how they mean it...I often stare at people without realizing because they look interesting, or because they're hot. Finding someone other than your partner hot isn't a crime though.

(edited to clarify my stance on staring, haha)

 

 

I've stopped letting it "offend" me months ago.

Really? I think it's fairly natural to stare. As long as they aren't too open about it and don't act on it I don't mind.

I told my boyfriend months ago that he can look but he can't touch. He thinks that's fair and we haven't had any problems.

It's also possible to stare without "checking" someone out though.. I find myself glancing over at certain people (guys and girls) without doing it on purpose. I always get mad if I catch my boyfriend looking at other girls though.. but I do have to admit it's natural and it doesn't mean  anything. I'm just possessive is all Tongue out

Yes i have to agree that its disrespectful or when a guy is driving by with his GF in the car & winks at you. Honestly i think that most guys are pigs. They have GF or even WIVES & they try to be sneaky & get some on the side. So i came to a conclusion that i dont want to get married because i dont want to be in that situation where i find out my husband cheated on me.

If he was looking over my shoulder or turning away to do it whilst i was speaking to him, then yes...bruised shins would come into play.

Eyeing other women as he sits drinking a coffee or just walking nah! wouldn't bother me, 9 out 0f 10 i'll probably have clocked her too lol

Guilty as charged....

It's called window shopping...It's all ok unless you make a purchase. Test driving the merchandise is acceptable under certain circumstances however it is highly risky and should always be avoided if possible.Wink

 

But really, as a guy I can attest to the following:

Any guy who doens't look is lying about not looking and still sneaking a peek. Thats ok...cause at the end of the day...you know who he is kissing anyways. Its not like women don't sneak a peak when they see a hot guy. Double standards are not fair.

hm...depends on what he's staring at, lol.  i don't mind staring...my own bf will remark that someone is attractive, and he actually does it for men too, like, "that is an incredibly built guy.  if i were you, i would want to hit that...I wonder what he does to get that six pack..."

looking does not, however, include lewd staring, pointing, winking, or coming over to flirt.  that is acting on a random appreciation of physical form, and not to be tolerated...*frowns menacingly*

monikaox--I hope you change your mind one day...there are very sweet guys out there who do not cheat on their women...I hope one sweeps you off your feet one day :)

Guys stare. We don't mean to and we don't often mean any sort of disrespect, we just are hardwired to appreciate beauty. Most mature women understand this and don't blame us for it.

Like someone above, my wife and I have an understanding. She understands that I occasionally "window shop", however I never test drive. At the end of the day, no matter whom I look at, it's her I go home with and have hot nookie ;)

Stare all you want to, that's why I bothered to get out of my ugly suit before I left the house (you know what that is, it usually involves flannel and or fleece) Just keep the grabby hands to yourself and stay out of my bubble.

 window shopping? freaking hilarious im stealing that one!!

depends on their manner.  a "stare" can be lewd, rude, and threatening, or it can be friendly and appreciative.  and just because a man is attached doesn't mean he's blind or dead.

This.

Frankly in over 20 years it has yet to bother or offend me.  I actually point out pretty women all the time and visa versa. And my motto is "When dinners is at home never eat out!"

I find it healthy.  Quite frankly we are human and I also kind of get a boost when it happens to me!

There is an old song, called "eyes better not wander" R&B by Nicole Wray this reminded me of it. I think it's disrespectful when you are with your S/O

eyes better not wander

"I hate to see her go...but I love to watch her leave."

I think looking is fine, staring's a bit off. I don't mind of my boyfriend looks at other women. I look at other women, even though I'm straight. It may be because they have a unique look, have a certian item I like, or simply because they're attractive. I look at men too. Sometimes, I do it without noticing, just because my mind's wandering and my eyes fallow whatever's moving near by. But, I know that whoever I look at has nothing compared to the amazing relationship me and my boyfriend have built and I'm not tempted at all.

If it gets to the point where it's staring rather than looking, it seems a little disrespectful to me. Unless its "OMG that woman's wearing a huge hat with purple ribbons and a live bird on it!" kind of staring... then you just can't help it.

I think it is disrespectful and potentially hurtful to openly stare and check out other people when your mate is present.  However, I do not think there is anything wrong with having a look.  Nothing wrong with browsing a little. just not handling the merchandise.

 

That being said... although sometimes they can be rude and crude...  it is a nice little ego boost that a guy would make the effort to stare at me.

I check my shoe for toilet paper.

I just wear sunglasses so I can stare at everyone.
