Should A Girl Tell Her Boyfriend About Other Guys Hitting On Her? by Rival(op): 12:07pm On Nov 18, 2014
Every relationship that has the prospect of blossoming into something tangible strives to have its foundation built on trust, love and understanding!

In this regard, would you, as a guy, want your lady to tell you about the guys hitting on her on daily bases so as to gain your trust?
Would you trust her more if she does this?

As a girl/lady do you tell your boyfriend about the guys that hit on you?

Any girl madly in love does that without being asked.

It is necessary..

I think it's important a lady let's her guy know about other guys hitting on her.

Although it may spring up a little jealousy,,but it's important.

It's important to be free with each other in a relationship.

I personally have no problem with knowing/not knowing that. If she says it, fine. If she don't, still fine.

To what end? What is the essence of telling?

Truth be told, it is immature and girls who do, do it to test how jealous their partner is over them. They feel that the depth of jealousy exhibited by their boyfriend is a determinant factor of how much love he has. Lol...wash.

When maturity and experience sets in, you will realise that there is no need sharing such irrelevant information because it can begin to sow the wrong seeds.
Re: Should A Girl Tell Her Boyfriend About Other Guys Hitting On Her? by Mprex(f): 2:35pm On Nov 18, 2014

Interesting, but don't you think that by telling him you could strengthen his feelings of love for you and make him believe that you love him and chose him above everyone else, especially if you show that in actions also? Don't you think it would strengthen the bond of trust! Or perhaps telling him has nothing to add to building trust?

Telling doesn't build trust. It mostly destroys it. What is the point in rubbing it in your man's face that he's got competition? Men have big egos, they want to be known as sole proprietors. Why deflate the ego?

Not wise, if you ask me.

It's good and sometimes not nice.
Re: Should A Girl Tell Her Boyfriend About Other Guys Hitting On Her? by KMTee(f): 3:03pm On Nov 18, 2014
there is no point in telling ur bf abt guys hitting on you every now and then.
it's so immature and with time, it becomes boring listening to such tales.

some guys might even see you as bragging about yourself.
Re: Should A Girl Tell Her Boyfriend About Other Guys Hitting On Her? by BluePearls(m): 3:21pm On Nov 18, 2014
My girl tells me sometimes when we gossip about our days.
Its a good thing...i feel it goes a long way in building trust between both of you.

Sorry if I have to disagree with you, but the difference is where and how you choose to tell him!

In my opinion telling your man does not deflate his ego, rather it inflates it because he would think that he has in his possession what others want but can't get!

It makes him feel that you want him to be with you because he has some qualities you saw that the others do not have.

He'd feel that you're indirectly telling him that he's important to you and you want him to have complete trust in you; he'd feel that you're indirectly telling him that you'd not cheat on him and that he's everything you desire in a man.

Anyway, it's your opinion and I respect it!

You mean you guys actually want your gf to tell you about every guy that hits on her, flirts with her, and etc.

That is just super weird.

If my girlfriend did that, I'd get the idea that she wants to get a reaction out of me or perhaps make me feel a little jealous.

I've told mine about one or two in the past, but they were either really notable, or he was in the vicinity and/or asked. He's told me too, and I even watched him get cornered once lol (waitress at brunch)...but then again we do talk a lot, and tell each other almost everything. I don't think it's a good habit to form tho. It's not positive, and it seems tedious and counterproductive.

If ever she does, don't get all jealous tongue

it is good to deflate that ego sometimes. Having an ego is not something one should be proud of. He should know that if he isn't treating his girl right, there are many others willing to do it. wink
