How Do You Feel About Competition?

[Sachet]

I was reading an article in Cosmo today & it said;
'We like it when other guys hit on you in front of us'
The author of the article claims that most men are flattered when another dude drolls over their girl, because it's an ego stroke.

Is this true?

I am more for the woman that doesn't need to be so revealing in a public place. If my girl is being checked out and isn't dressed like a hook, but dressed classy it wouldn't bother me, but it would make me feel even more appreciative of her beauty.

I don't know if that answers your question...LOL

 

[ElCid]

Depends on the circumstance. If you are clearly there with her and it is pretty clear your together, then I kind of consider it a slap in the face. I don't know, maybe I am a little old fashioned, but I am a firm believer in respect. I always give it, unless there is a very good reason not to, and I expect it. But, if you’re off getting a drink or whatever, and someone who has no clue does it, well, then no problem. And, it is definitely a complement in a way.

If he's hitting on my girl in front of me, he wants to loose some teeth.

But if I notice another guy checking her out, it's cool, because I know who she is going home with. It's kind of a ego boost, knowing other guys want your woman.

I love it when I walk up catching a guy hitting on my woman. I think they call it the fear of death look.

 

[auriflex]

I dont look at women. Bad things would happen to me. My wife said so.

I'm with ya 100% percent... If i'm standing right there and he hits on her, oh man... bye bye teeth!!!

but i'm not the jealous type so if i'm off gettin a drink and I come back and he's hitting on her, I back off and let him try. Kinda use it as a test to see how faithful the girl is...

 

[Badgermoon]

If someone hits on her in front of me... I am pissed. I hate that fuckin' shit. I show respect, and expect the same. I get pissed just thinking about it.
If someone is just checking her out without being obnoxious about it, I don't mind, that's only natural.

I agree with most guys on here. Check her out all you want. drool all you want. that's fine, and yes it is an ego boost. But, if you have the audacity to hit on her when you know I am with her, you just asked for a fight. I actually enjoy that part sometimes. *chuckle*

I'm possesive and protect anything dear to me, it would certainly drive me to violence. My wife is a very pretty woman age 34 who looks 19, still gets proofed for beer. Nobody has ever hit on her or stared at her when I'm around.

 

[Nicole]

Haha its funny I get checked out alot more when Im not hanging with guy friends.. but I really dont mind if the guy Im with gets checked out.. in fact Im usually flattered..

 

[Sachet]

I think the circumstances play a big part in it..
If someone comes along & doesn't realize you're together & checks your guy out.. it would flattering.
I would definately watch his reaction & if he wasn't respectful enough to just smile, take it simply as a compliment and blow it off.. he's h*i*s*t*o*r*y.

Just for fun, this is what the remainder of the article says~

Most men are flattered when another dude drools over their girl, because it's an ego stroke. {Yes, it's always about us.} And though we shouldn't need lecherous outsiders to remind us that you're phenomenal, that's the way it works. Besides, it serves a purpose of sorts. When we spot another man checking out your goods, it sends a clear message: if we don't treat you right, you could slip out of our hands in the blink of an eye. Plus, it automatically triggers our competitive spirit. Mark my words, if that dork so much as attempts to paw you, we'll rush to play the part of a rescuer. But, as long as the admirer maintains decorum, what's the harm in letting him size you up? At the end of the night, we're the lucky bastards who get to go home with you.

whoever wrote that sounds like a quiche-eater. (sp?)

 

[elemental]

Shawn would be like, "you looking for something like my fist??"

Is that really true though?? My wife may be the only exception to the rule, dammit.....I have girls at the gym checking me out all the time, coming up to talk to me or whatever and my wife could care less. Shit, our waitresses usually flirt with me a little when I take her out to eat and she STILL doesn't care.......:angry:

 

[92StangMan]

I had people stare at my ex all the time since she was pretty damn hot. When they would start to talk to her and she would try to leave and they would follow, it would piss me off.

I'm one of the more laidback people in the world but if you fuck with me or try to take something away, we'll be in for a long night.

Thats the way I see it I dont want know "lechurous outsider" hitting on my lady and if he does Id have to knock his teeth out and bounce his lifeless head off my knee a few times. thats just me.

However, that is if he hits on her in my presence, I like a few of the bros said, don't do that and anyone with balls enough to try is going to be poliely asked to remove themselves or I will remove them regardless of who they are.

On the other hand, if they are checking out my lady sometimes I will smile and be like yep Im going to bring her home and do all the things you dream of with her. So that never bothers me it is somewhat of a compliment.

Now if I were away at the head or joining her somewhere and a dude had no idea I have no problem with that.
