John's wife a few years ago: "When are you going to stop looking at other women?"

John: "When I stop breathing."
Hey, there ain't nothing wrong with looking! It's just acting on them nasty thoughts that a few good looks will cause in your head that is to be avoided.

Looking is only human. :)

I couldn't agree more.

Heh, reminds of a situation. About ten years ago the wife and I are driving down this country road, and she sees this really muscular guy cutting his yard with his shirt off. So naturally she cranks her head to continue checking him out as we drive by. I ask, "Get a good look?". And she says, "Oh, I was looking at the model of the mower he was using." "I'm supposed to buy that? Give me a break. . .even I was checking his pecs out, so I know you were." "No I wasn't, I was looking at the mower."

She stuck to that version of the story for almost an entire decade before finally relenting. Why? Probably because she knows I hate double-standards and was fired up to give her a blast of shit for always berating me when I look at an attractive woman and then turning around and blatantly checking some guy out herself.

no, looking is not acceptable. i dont look when im dating someone and my relationships have never lasted more than two weeks so not exactly LTR's. It's really an easy thing to do- you just have to be happy with what you've got. If you're happy with them then why are you looking elsewhere?

Same reason we look at art--it's pleasing.

no i think it's a tad different then art- when you look at a woman you are imagining having sex with her and THAT is pleasing. And, if I'm satisfied wtih the person I'm with then why would I want to ahve sex with someone else? Furthermore, if she's satisfied with you then why would she be looking elsewhere? Because she's unsatisfied. That's why people get mad when their mates look- it means they are wanting more.

I think it speaks of the person's insecurities. Personally I have no problem with my wife casually scoping out a good looking guy. I'm very happy with my wife and feel she's quite attractive; doesn't automatically make every other attractive woman on the planet disappear. There is a difference between appreciation and desire.
 
Heck, I find the male form pleasing to look at (from an envy/appreciation standpoint). It doesn't mean I'm interested in straying.

btw... what's with EB today?
Hanners wrote up a piece about the FarCry 1.3 patch, a few places linked it, my site is gone.

From what I've heard I guess it had a lot of big images, methinks that toasted our server....but I'm not really sure. I had a troublemaker last night who got me pissed off and I've avoided the place since dealing with him.

Ditto, and I'll even go as far as to chat with girls about why guy x is hot and guy y isnt but has something... Relationships are stronger when the realisation is made that the two people in it are not the only two people in the world, but a lucky two, from millions who have something special. No amount of looks can even come close to what LTR's have.

With all of that said, when with a girl I'm just starting out with I'm on best behaviour for a while, it helps to make her feel special, much like making every attempt to listen and remember things she says then bring them up later and ask about them. I guess it depends on the comfort level reached, but in principle in LTR's looking is no more damaging that drooling over a well cooked meal. Its satisfying but it ends quickly.

why doesnt that bother you?? in her mind she's having sex with them... yoou dont mind your wife havnig sex with other guys? hey, John, can I come visit sometime? :devilish:
 
I don't know about your mind, but when I see a hot girl the music doesn't hit and I don't get an image of her naked. Sure I'd like to see it, but the way a provactaivley dressed woman is dressed is part of the attraction. Its like "wow that looks good". No overblown full sequence about how intercourse would be the end result... thats saved for when I have time to think, which is rare.

Beyond its astounding size, there's nothing to appreciate, so don't you worry.

i imagine having sex with every person i meet. sometimes its nice sometimes not. how can you not? then, if it's nice, i keep looking to get a better picture of what it would be like.

edit: but i dont know where this music is comming from :?

That kinda illustrates my point though, what goes on in your head is completley different from most people. I see a hot girl and i think "damn that would rock", but i dont actually imagine the acts, nor get mental images until say later that evening, or during a daydream at work or something. Even then its insignificant, reality and possibility are far more intriguing to me.

Exactly, and thats rare, compare that to what i described, and imagine if that were the case, empathise with the situation. Would be doing what i described as much of a crime?
