Am I just to Sensitive?
Options
So this past Saturday I went to a social with my boyfriend and a friend of his. I spent most of the night listening to my bf and his friend make comments about they way the girls were dressed. Am I the only women who feels like a piece of crap when their significant other points out skinnier, younger, pretty women? I realize we are all human and we all look. It's not the looking that bothers me.

yeah sounds like you should just break up0

You're way over sensitive.
There will always be younger, thinner women than you. It's a natural reaction for a man to take a quick look. Doesn't mean he's going to cheat or anything. It just one of those things you need to deal with.0 -
Put up a big ol' Ian Somerhalder poster in your bedroom.0

'What the hell is a social???
oh sorry.. I am Canadian. Before a wedding the couple has a social.. they charge 10 dollars to get in you buy booze and they have prizes. It's to raise money for their wedding. Ukrainian tradition I think. But everyone here in Manitoba has them.0 -
It seems a little disrespectful to me. I'm with you, I don't mind my husband looking (he's married, not dead). But if he is going to comment it doesn't need to be in my presence. To me that would be something he would do with his buddies.0

Maybe its my age, but I think it is rude for a man to make comments to anyone about another woman in the presence of their spouse/gf. If you think you can sneak a peek, go for it, but ladies know when their man checks out another woman anyway. Just dont say anything.0

Looking is natural. Kind of weird that he's pointing them all out in front of her, though.0 -

Sounds kinda fun...considering drinking is involved I wonder why this hasn't caught on in Wisconsin...0 -

Depending on your approach to him, will he listen to you? if not i suggest you give him a taste of his own medicine. Phone a friend when he there and have a girly chat about the hot guy at work/school/ pool..well you get the idea0

these were the comments I was most pissed off at.
very very petit girl maybe 22 years old. "hey you should get a dress like that" yep that made me feel like a huge whale.
two girls kissing on the dance floor. " hey honey, maybe they need a ride home."
"girls never dressed like this when I was young if they did I'd be on the floor doing the worm all night."
I am sure they're were other ones. His friend is single so I kinda expected it from him.0 -
I think it's rude and insensitive! I would never do that my boyfriend or a date.0

My husband never ever talks about other women in front of me. And in turn, I don't comment on other men. I've never even caught him looking at another woman, he's incredibly subtle. And don't get me wrong, it's only human nature to look...but you can do it without being obvious or insulting to the woman you are with.0

No he doesn't listen. I said if he wanted to take the lesbians home I am sure his friend would give me a ride and he could pick up his **** in the morning. He has been ignoring me ever since. BTW we live together so it's been an awkward silence for a few days.0 -

I would have thought "hey, you SHOULDN'T get a dress like that" would have been the insult ..0 -
