Is It Okay to Call Someone Hot in Front of Your Partner?
Some may say it’s insecure to be bothered. Others would say bothered is the minimum that should be felt.
I compliment women all the time. Almost every time I see a woman on tv, I voice how pretty she is. In past flings, relationships, whatever, guys would do it in front me of me all the time. I wouldn’t give it a second thought. Most of the time, I found her attractive too.
Being in my current relationship, my thoughts linger in a different direction.
One day, I’m in an irritated mood and my boyfriend sees Cece from New Girl and won’t stop talking about how hot she is. I mean duhh, I would say the same. But for some reason, I find myself yelling, “Okay we fucking get it! She’s hot.” He becomes super apologetic afterwards. Of course, I couldn’t help but to feel bad. I feel weird, because I have never been super bothered by it. Especially a celebrity, because that’s innocent.
I start to think about a close roommate I had in college. She’s a great friend, but crazy girlfriend. She would threaten to chop off her boyfriend’s genitals off, when he would sporadically compliment a woman on tv. I would tell her all the time it was insane to not let him do it.
