When you’re dating someone, you’d like to believe that you are the only woman in the world that he has eyes for, especially when you’re in love. You feel that he should see you as the most beautiful creature on God’s green Earth; in his mind, you exude perfection. But let’s be real, you’re not the only one who’s got it going on. There are millions of beautiful women roaming the streets, equipped with pretty faces and stacked with banging bodies. Shoot, I know I’ve seen a few that have made me gawk my damn self, admiring their perfect curves, plump assets and toned everything. So can you really blame your man for taking a peek?
When I say a peek, I do mean a simple peek though. For me, it’s okay if my partner looks, because most times, I’m looking right along with him. (Yeah, I’m the cool girlfriend who scopes out the hot tamales with my dude. What can I say? I admire the beauty of women). But there is a line. It’s crossed when he’s breaking his neck, eyes glued to their backsides, tongue hanging out, mouth drooling—just a whole bag of extra. Especially if the “hottie with the body” is not just a woman passing by, but stuck in the same room or location as me and my partner. If he keeps stealing looks, staring, and boy, don’t let them make eye contact and hold it, then that’s when I feel disrespected, and there will be a problem.
That’s just me though, every woman is different. Some ladies don’t care how hard her man looks, as long as he’s coming home and taking care of her. Hey, that’s their thing. But of course, there are the women who will absolutely not, under no circumstances, tolerate roaming eyes. All I have to say to females out there who are ready to bark, nag, and slap a man down every time his eyes get a little happy is that you should know this: Your man’s not blind! Be secure enough to know that he’s not going anywhere no matter what fine woman he spots. And if he does roam, he wasn’t worth your time anyway. But if he doesn’t, let him get a little glimpse from time to time, no worries; just as long as he respects you enough not to take it overboard. Stop feeling threatened and give the poor man a break from time to time.
Now, to all the men who may be reading this: Know what type of woman you’re with. If you have a girlfriend who’s really relaxed and doesn’t mind you looking every now and then, you’re good. On the other hand, if you know you have a girl who hates even the thought of you peeping at someone else, try to tone it down and show respect. (I know it’s hard fellas). Hey, if that doesn’t work, just pull the ol’ “Baby! Look at what that girl has on!” trick. Some women love to gossip, so it works every time. (But y’all didn’t hear that from me.)
