Take a Picture, It Lasts Longer!

Scenario:My boyfriend is always staring at other girls. Right in front of me! It makes me feel really low about myself and I get so mad at the girls he looks at. When I tell him to stop he just laughs at me and says I am overreacting. He needs to stop or else he will be single!
Response: This is classic. Okay, both men and women look at the opposite sex. However their is a huge difference between a glance and a stare. The latter is disrespectful. I do not understand why you are upset at the women your boyfriend stares at though. It is not their fault that he has wandering eyes.
You need to tell him how you feel. Not in a jealous psycho kind of way, this is where his laughter comes in. Talk to him in a sincere "this hurts me" manner. Don't do it in the heat of the moment. Bring the topic up when your eating dinner in private. Don't talk at him, talk to him. Have a discussion telling him how you feel and listen to what he has to say for himself as well. Let him know this is affecting your self esteem, trust in him and the relationship in general.
