gina answered Friday October 14 2005, 3:27 pm: In my opinion, i think he's just testing you! Testing to see how much you can take, with this whole jealousy thing. My boyfriend does the exact same thing, and i used to get really agitated and annoyed about it sometimes fuming mad. It's a bruise to the ego when you know, you should be in the limelight not Jessica Alba! I understand! What i think you should do, is go to the movie and show him that you are a strong-willed, self-confident woman. If he brings up Jessica Alba after the movie, you say "yah i think she was pretty hot too and leave it at that! He'll be absolutely dumbfounded, it would be so unexpected from you. The thing that men find attractive about a women, is when you do not criticize other women, but can sit there and say "yah, she is pretty hot!" even though it may bother you, it will make you feel better to say something good about someone else, rather than something critical. It will make you look better in front of your boyfriend too! [ gina's advice column | Ask gina A Question ]
K2204 answered Wednesday October 12 2005, 9:07 pm: you may not like what i am going to type, but you asked for what i thought.
I think that you dont know for sure if that is how he is going to react. maybe he wants to go because the setting of the movie is interesting, or because he thinks that you would like it.
Just go with the flow, and tackel the problems as the present themselves, life is too short to spend time worring! just be happy that you get to go to the movies! I havent seen my boyfriend in a month, and in less than a year he is leaving for college. so, just feel blessed that you two get to be together and see eachother, and look foward to a great night that you two can spend together!
I hope it all turns out great, and that you didnt need to worry! let me know how it turns out!

x0blu3eyedbeautyx0 answered Wednesday October 12 2005, 8:12 pm: Well I just saw that with my 2 friends and one came with her bf anf it wasnt akward at all...it's a really good movie...but i'll admit they do a couple close ups on Jessica's ass...but your bf will probably be worried about you thinkin, "damn, Paul Walker is hott!" (cuz he like never has a shirt on :) ) Honestly I say just go see it because..guys or girls can't help but have some eye candy..it doesn't need to be an actress it could be another girl at your school..it's just gonna happen, you can't avoid it sorry! I wouldn't base what you do on whether your bf is gonna be thinking about another girl..if he wanted soemone else he wouldn;t be with you..but obviously your his main interest right now! And if my bf started talking about how hott some other girl is..I'd be really pissed..but if he's talkin bout an actress it's no big deal..because they're made up to look gorgeous and it's not liek their any competition! But, if he obsesses about her,,I would tell him to stfu lol! Well hope i hope helped and good luck! ♥ caitie [ x0blu3eyedbeautyx0's advice column | Ask x0blu3eyedbeautyx0 A Question ]
RockStoleMySoul answered Wednesday October 12 2005, 7:19 pm: Well, I know that this probably bothers you, but the best advice i can give to you is to get over it! I mean, your boyfriend may think that she's the finest thing ever, but he can't have her! He has you, and he's lucky for that. All guys have one star that totally turns them on.
Go see the movie. IF he gushes about her, you gush about the 'TOTALLY EFFING HOT GUY in the movie! If he talks about the hot actress, you talk about the hot actor. "Man that six pack really was so hot!"
Razhie answered Wednesday October 12 2005, 6:43 pm: Look, it doesn't matter if the movie is 'appropriate' or not. It doesn't even really matter if you think your guy will spend the whole time checking out Miss Alba (although that raises a whole bunch of questions and issues I wont bother to address)
What does matter is You Don't Want To See That Movie. For whatever reason, you don't want to see it with him. I don't blame you, it looks bad, it's gotten bad reviews, I don't want to see it even though I'd love to spend an hour checking out Jessica Alba in a bikini.
If you can't even tell your boyfriend your preference in a movie, you have a serious issue darling. Your reasons for not wanting to see the movie aren't important, you don't need to explain them to him. Develop a spine, say you rather see something else and then work out a compromise.

Dakmor answered Wednesday October 12 2005, 6:23 pm: Hrmm... I have no idea who you are or why you randomly decided to ask me this as a Private Question, but OK. I hate to turn town a Private.
Well, is he the sort to go looking for "is she hot?" I mean, if I ever get a girl, I'd probably dump her as soon as she started talking about how hot some guy in one of my classes is, unless she means a lot to me. Movies, fine. Whatever. It's not like she'll ever get a chance to go out with Daniel Radcliffe anyway. So try ignoring it. Or if its getting WAY too bad, start talking about Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt. That'll get him thinking, and when he decides to ask you why you're suddenly so obsessed with them, tell him the truth. (Note: This one will NOT work if you're not the hot&sexy-obsessed type. Go figure =P)
Actually, that's not such a bad idea. Just tell him the truth straight away. The truth is the best thing. People always told me not to tell the one I'm after how I felt. But it was burning up inside me. I had to tell her that she was more than a friend. The truth helped. And it's applicable anywhere.
Jarhead11789 answered Wednesday October 12 2005, 5:46 pm: Well, I'm not a lady, but I can tell you that it's pretty sad for your boyfriend to be saying that. It would take a guy who's either very stupid or a total pig to say things like that to his girlfriend.
I actually did see this movie with my girlfriend, and it went fine. She just made fun of the movie every time there was a close-up on Jessica Alba's backside(which is a few times more than necessary, I think).
So, I would say that it's a fine movie to see with a date, so long as your date has enough class not to be commenting about the lead actress' physique. And if he doesn't, and I hate to have to say something like this, then I would say you should find your self a different date. You deserve better than that.

sizzlinmandolin answered Wednesday October 12 2005, 5:30 pm: Guys think a lot differently than girls. What you call a "couples movie" is a "chick flick" to him. He wants to see this movie and he wants to share it with you. The fact that he invited you to it instead of to more of a couples movie is because he probably feels kind of guilty looking at another girl (the lovely Miss Alba) without you right there beside him. He wants to share his excitement with you and spend time with you. Guys will always be looking at other girls and girls will always be looking at other guys, but girls tend to talk about it less. I used to find it to be extremely annoying when my boyfriend talked about how hot other girls were. It made me feel bad about myself and made me feel like our relationship wasn't as strong as it really was. I even got kind of jealous sometimes. Truth is, because he's sharing that with you, it seems like you two have a really great connection. You trust each other and want to have a really healthy relationship. I've learned that when my bf starts talking about girls to turn it into a kind of joke by talking about them too. I feel totally bisexual when I do it, but it's actually really fun. I basically pretend I'm a guy and think of things that a guy would say. He'll be so surprised and he'll like it a lot more than he probably should. It's a way to shift his attention more from her back to you. It always works really well for me, but if you feel uncomfortable doing it or something just know that when he talks about it he is really just doing what he thinks he should...sharing everything with you. If it bothers you a lot talk to him about it. Tell him how it makes you feel and he will at least try to stop doing it. Don't talk about how hot the guy was as a type of comeback though, unless it's a complete joke and he knows it. You don't want to make him feel the way that he's making you feel on purpose. Guys can be a tad bit more sensitive to it since girls don't do that as often and you could really hurt his feelings. Anyways, it sounds like a movie that you want to see and I hope that you have a great time. Good luck! [ sizzlinmandolin's advice column | Ask sizzlinmandolin A Question ]
confusedbabii answered Wednesday October 12 2005, 5:06 pm: well...i would say that it's wrong for him to say that she's hot and all that sincce you ARE his girlfriend. he shouldn't be saying that kind of stuff around you. just tell him that you want to see a different movie. hope i helped [ confusedbabii's advice column | Ask confusedbabii A Question ]
