Is it normal for my boyfriend to talk about other women often?

46% Normal
8 Comments

My boyfriend is very friendly towards other women. Wherever he goes he makes friends with other women. He flirts but claims he is just being friendly. Then he talks about the other women, about how they look, what they said , and the stories they told.

The worst part is that he talks about them not just once, but several times over several days. I tell him it I don't want to hear about his women "friends" all the time, he claims I am getting upset over nothing. He doesn't act on his infactuations as far as I know (he doesn't have affairs or ask them out) but this is only because they are taken or because it would never work.

Do I have a right to demand that he doesn't talk about the women over and over, or am I just acting jealous?

    Personally I would feel discomfort if my (non-existent) girlfriend talked about other guys often. I think you should tell him this and tell him how you feel about it. Cause I feel that he wouldn't like it either if his other half started "flirting" with other guys and talked about other guys often. I think you're acting jealous, but not crazy, and I think you're justified in wanting him to keep his mentioning of other women to a minimum.

    My mom had a boyfriend that did the same thing and it took a while but she eventually caught him cheating through an e-mail. Dumbass left his yahoo up and we found out he was meeting some girl. But he was a total dick on top of that I have no idea what your boyfriend is like.

    you can demand it as long as you can follow through with it too,maybe he's just trying to see if you care enough to get jealous, or maybe he just feels comfortable talking about them to you. explain to him what you told us here.

    I have a guy friend who sounds exactly like your boyfriend, in fact, when I met him, I thought he was flirting with me. He is at his third girlfriend since I met him right now (he never cheated on any of them, but his first relationships were really short), and he told me he liked other 2 girls and myself at the same time before choosing his current girlfriend. He is a cool guy and we are really close, but I would never date him, too fickle to be trusted, though he is not a bad person and seems to be finally serious about his current girlfriend. Maybe your boyfriend just likes to have friends, like my friend, but if I were you, I'd watch out.

    Guys talk about girls all the time.
    Would you rather not hear about what your boyfriend thinks of other girls and what he likes/dislikes?
    He's just being honest and true.
    Give him a smack or two if he gets naughty with his words/thoughts.
    Just to let him know what your boundaries are.
    Good luck.

    Take it from me, a guy, your bf is insulting you. Consciously.
    Stay with him if want that sh-t. I'd advise you to move on. Fast.

    You have every right to be upset about this, I know I would be too. But you can't demand him to do anything, he should respect you and not do this though.
