How do you feel when your significant other gets attention all the time from members of the opposite sex for his or her good looks? "Attention" can range from someone buying your significant other drinks at the bar to a simple horn honking as someone yells out the window at him or her?
Does it bother you? Does it make you proud? How do you react to the attention your significant other receives?

Where on earth do you live that people still think honking their horns and yelling out windows is an appropriate way of giving a member of the opposite sex 'attention'?

Well it makes me feel smug! Cause i wouldn't be with a girl i didn't trust:)
It annoys me when guys blatantly stare at H when I'm stood beside her or if they speak to her when I walk away when we are out together.
Some little prick called her a slut after he walked past her and said 'hello gorgeous, nice tits' and she ignored him. He didn't realise she was walking towards me and I was stood behind him. I told him to apologise but he was being a right little cocky knob and took a swing at me, so I took his legs from underneath him and went off on a tirade telling him to act like a man. I was very very wound up because she had told me about a guy who had done something similar the other day to her. I hate how the Pakistani guys in Bradford think that they can get away with it because they hate whites.

I work there so I have to suffer. I live nearby in Shipley, I'd never live in Bradford. Worst city in the UK by far.

Hopefully you don't work on the Travel & Tourism board.

My ex used to hate it, but never did anything about it - I know it got to him though. A few of his mates tried it on with me, stupidly. I think generally guys are pretty disrespectful, anyway.
I used to love the look on his face when a pretty girl spoke to him though - he honestly used to light up, and I'd be all ohh good on him. As long as she didn't touch him, I was pleased cause he'd never stray.

If I did this would be my proposed slogan:
'Bradford, home of racism and uninsured drivers'

It makes me feel proud and punchy at the same time,I'm really o.k for it unless the voyeur is some creepy 40 + suit and tie guy...and theres this one guy who hosts a open mic arts/poetry night at our local who is alway's approaching her,nice enough,knows we're together but he's a slick little prick...what bothers me is that when we're not out together and I see him,he pays me no regard,not a nod,nada...this makes me want put him in a choke hold and make him punch himself,while repeating to him "why are you doing that to yourself?"...I can say that she reacts to the opposite situation much more poorly than me...which is also dead attractive...very protective,wild cat!

If somebody did it while I was there with her and was disrespectful then I would take offense. Most of the people that do it are old perverts that come in to buy something at work and try and be cute by saying something. What are you gonna do?

It's never really bothered me. If nothing else, it's kind of flattering to me, too, because I'm thinking, "HA! I got her!"
I'm not crazy about a guy who has seen us together and still flirts with her, though. That makes me nuts.

I'm actually really thinking about this now...and I'm gonna start mocking the kid,egging him on and displaying a general but palatable disrespect...like..I will start calling him "Billy"...when he snakes up on our booth...
"hey,Billy"
"my name is Mark"
Yeah,whatever Billy,bring me a menu"
that'll learn him...:rolleyes:

Funny thing happened once..
I was working behind a bar, and my ex, (who was EXTREMELY attractive and used to get hit on all the time) was sitting at the bar having a drink waiting for me to finish. Anyway a whole lot of guys there were on a pub crawl, and while I was chatting to my GF (she was sitting right in front of me on the other side of the bar) one of them sidled up to her.
He says 'heyyy there cutie, what you doin now? We're going to a party, you should come along!!'
She says 'naah I'm waiting for my boyfriend.'
He says 'your bf is a loser if he makes you wait here. why are you waiting?'
She says 'I'm waiting for him to finish work'.
He says 'fuck your BF. He's a schmuck. he's not here. Come with me!!'
She says 'er yes he is, thats him right there!' and points at me, (I was standing right in front of him). He turns around and sees me standing right there behind the bar, and the look on his face was fucking priceless.
He goes 'er.......' and I say 'I think its time you and ya mates left, dontcha think??' and he goes 'err.....' and I had security throw all of them out.
I laughed and laughed. Then I took my GF home and fucked her on the couch.

i think it's nice when girls hit on my husband. makes me proud, although it only happens at punk rock shows and the like.
he takes me getting hit on in stride. i get it a lot b/c of my ghetto ass. the other week we were in target and two dudes were talking about what they would do to some girl's ass if they had it. then matt realized they were talking about me (i was a few aisles over). he had a look to kill that time. he usually doesn't react that way. they musta been saying some dirty stuff!

I didn't say YOU thought it was, I said "people" think it is, as they must, because it is what you yourself said they do in your original post, no?

I'll tell you when I lived in Kuwait city and walked with the Mrs, the locals, the rich ones that hang out in the malls and the seaside had no manners what so ever.
They would make kissy noises at her, howl, ask for massages and you name it while I was walking with her.
It pissed me off at first, I'd get up in their faces and tell them that she's a lady, not a piece of meat, as they seemed to portray her.
After a while, we just learned to ignore them. It seemed to hurt their pride more because nobody was giving them the attention they wanted.

Mrs Lo_Lyfe has been struggling with her confidence a bit over the last year or so. It's quite novel to her, and that fact is sort of affecting her confidence even further. I tell her she's beautiful and perfect and shit, which she knows I mean, but it sort of stops resonating after 7 years.
So at this breast-cancer corporate lunch she went to while I played Mario, she said some dude was all "Man, you're beautiful" "Don't leave" and so on. She said she was married and apparently dude was all "Aw man your husband is so lucky".
She was clearly happy for the praise, and it would be easy for me to be mad at this fact (since I say the same shit to her all the time). But really, I was glad for it because it changed her mind a little. And I told her it's awesome when dudes see what I see, but even more awesome that she comes home to me for humps and snacks.

I get mad, but I don't really show it too much. usually I'll say something if the girl is really going for it. but I'm more like, " :( I dun like that", rather than bitchy.
I've dated guys that either go over the top or quietly get mad or make assumptions. like, "that guy totally wants to do you, what a dick", if I've been talking even just casually to another dude.
those things aren't too common though, as people in my crowd/age group don't really hit on people much. everyone's pretty aloof, so nothing much gets accomplished.
I did have some guy say to me the other day whilst I was riding my bike, "damn, go on with that ass now girl". my coat was covering my bum though, so I bet that's just something he likes to yell at females. :/
