BigAl Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 ... when I'm walking with my girlfriend and she sees another guy and not only looks but says "Heyyy"... is she wrong for doing that or am I wrong for getting mad that she does it? FYI... I've told her before that I didn't like it.
Author BigAl Posted September 16, 2008 Author Posted September 16, 2008 15 views and no opinions? Someone help me out...
AAlike Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 well, whether it should be a big deal depends on context - but if you've told her that you don't like and she still keeps doing it then it's not cool no matter what.
lkjh Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 Does she know the guy or is it some random person?
Author BigAl Posted September 16, 2008 Author Posted September 16, 2008 It was just a random guy on the street.
sweet&simple Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 It's definitely a little weird that she's say "heyyy," but aside from that, is that all you have a problem with or is it the fact that she's checking out someone else? It's pretty natural to check out other people whether you're in a relationship or not. Unless she's taking it a step further than saying "hi" to some stranger, I wouldn't worry about it.
Author BigAl Posted September 16, 2008 Author Posted September 16, 2008 I know people check out other people. I do it. BUT... I don't do it in front of her. And I definitely don't comment while I'm doing it in front of her. I just feel disrespected. Maybe it's just me.
tanbark813 Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 If she's saying hi to random dudes she checks out while with you then yes, that's disrespectful.
Author BigAl Posted September 16, 2008 Author Posted September 16, 2008 She doesn't say "Hi". It's more of a "ooh" or "heyyy"... if you know what I mean. I just think it's disrespectful. I wouldn't do it to her. When she did it today I almost went up to the dude to get his number for her. I'm close to telling her she's free to do it whenever she wants, since she's gonna be single.
SoulStorm Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 If she was doing that in front of me, I would tell her calmly "that's disrespectful". Then I would walk away and she wouldn't hear from me until we colonized Mars.

TigerCub Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 Start doing it when you see hot women walking by and see what she does.
theobserver Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 I agree do exactly the same thing when you see an attractive girl walk y when you are both together walking down the street and see how she feels about it. What she's doing is disrespectful. Either she's doing it to get a rise out of you (some women just like to see their bf get mad/jealous or basically to just see if you got the balls to say/do anything) or she has issues keeping thoughts and reactions in her head and it comes out. But hey you did tell her it annoys you before... as said give her a taste then state how your slightly annoyed at when she does it despite you saying you didnt like it and it's disrespectful before. Still though how "hot" was this guy lol. If Johnny Depp or Lenny Kravitz walked by I might have to let my wifes reaction slide.
Author BigAl Posted September 17, 2008 Author Posted September 17, 2008 theobserver... you nailed it. She has problems keeping her thoughts in her head sometimes. I'd rather not do the "retaliation" thing. She's just going to call it childish and I don't do that anyway. And no, the dude wasn't any hotter than the average guy. He had his shirt off though. But he wasn't in any better shape than I am. And she does know it bothers me. And lastly, no... I'm not the insanely jealous type. Not any more than she is. In fact she's worse. She was crazy jealous of a female friend I have and e-mail 1200 miles away.

Its disrespectful. Its one thing to look, its another to make comments in front of your significant other. Its just plain rude. Why would I think going gaga over some other woman in front of my gf would be acceptable? FYI... I've told her before that I didn't like it. So you have told her before you don't like it and she still does it? Well its easy. Dump her. She obviously doesn't care about your feelings.
bish Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 If she was doing that in front of me, I would tell her calmly "that's disrespectful". Then I would walk away and she wouldn't hear from me until we colonized Mars. I'd stop right where we were and tell her, "go get him if you want him that much", then walk off.
Author BigAl Posted September 17, 2008 Author Posted September 17, 2008 bish... I pretty much did just that yesterday when it happened. At first I said "Do you want me to get his number for you?" And then when she kept on like I was wrong, I left her there on the sidewalk.
bish Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 Start doing it when you see hot women walking by and see what she does. I bet it would backfire. It would just give her more ammo to do it even more, and more flagrantly.

And then when she kept on like I was wrong, I left her there on the sidewalk. Well then there isn't anything more to say. If I did something insensitive to a gf and she called me on it and I knew it hurt her feelings, I'd be wrapping my arms around her and assuring her I meant nothing by it and would promise not to do it again(although I wouldn't comment on another woman in front of her in the first place). But your so-called girlfriend dismisses your feelings and tells you that YOU are in the wrong? Oh no she didn't. Just ditch her man. Let her play someone else for a fool.
Jilly Bean Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 She's catcalling guys right in front of you? Um, hello? Is this thing on? Snap out of it! Man up and dump her ass. She is humiliating you, devaluing you and you are tolerating it.
Author BigAl Posted September 17, 2008 Author Posted September 17, 2008 I'm thinking you guys are right. We're two different people anyway.
Author BigAl Posted September 17, 2008 Author Posted September 17, 2008 I pretty much just ended it with her. And she still doesn't think she did anything wrong. I was the one that was wrong for letting it bother me too much. Bother me no more. I'm over it!
bish Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 I'm thinking you guys are right. We're two different people anyway. yes, you need someone with some decency.
Shygirl15 Posted September 17, 2008 Posted September 17, 2008 "Heeyyy" to random guys on the street while with you? Something is wrong in her head. I have a feeling she was unconciously doing it though, perhaps she just didn't think much of it.
