Okay, I really need help with this one. I've been dating my boyfriend now for two years. Lately, every time we walk around he's constantly staring at every girl that walks by. I had said something to him. (at this time we were currently on vacation in Atlantic City. So I said to him, If yu here trying to have a good time with me, then why are yu paying attention to so many others. He went off on me and starting calling me imature and stuff. Well I decided I'll just ignore it when he looks, I mean he has been with me and only me for two years. But the other day, we were at Giant and I was looking at this one dude. He saw me and kept saying I was staring at him and crap. He was laughin about it tryin to make it seem like he really didnt care, but i know he did. He was telling everyone about it. It was so pathetic. So what should I do about me looking and him looking. Don't say anything like yu two are too imature for a relationship, because we're not breaking up over something little like this, i love him way too much. Thank yu!

No girl wants her boyfriend checking out every "hot chick" that walks by. I think your boyfriend is the immature one here. He can look at every girl he sees but you are not allowed to look at one guy? That's totally unfair. You need to talk to him and tell him how hurtful he is being to you. If he gets mad and won't understand, then obviously he is too selfish and immature, and he will need to work on that. I am not suggesting you guys break up. I think you should just work this out. Good luck :) [ gypsytears's advice column | Ask gypsytears A Question ]

Just because a guy who is dating someone thinks another girl is hot, doesn't mean he's going to leave his girlfriend to be with her. Same is true for girls. Relationships are build on much more than just looks alone. The fact that you two get jealous of each other shows how much you like each other. Think of it as a complement. And keep in mind, that "looking" is just human nature. Try not to let it bother you. If he isn't getting the other girls phone numbers or hitting on them, then I wouldn't worry about it.

You each need to understand that just because you look at other people appreciatively does not mean that you actually want to go with them. You have two years together and sometimes relationships do go a little stale. The best advice I can give is to sit down together and talk this through. Give each other the chance to explain how they feel when the other looks at someone else. Explore the possibility that you need to inject a little bit of mystique and romance back into your relationship. Above all, try not to get angry and possessive about this. Good luck.
