đ€Ż INCRĂVEL: “Sheâs Almost As Hot As You”: 62 Husbands Admit How They Handle Attraction Outside Their Marriage đČ
The phrase “all men are pigs” is the same as “all women are desperate for attention.” It’s a sweeping generalization that reduces people to stereotypes. Before making assumptions like that, itâs only fair to listen to what they have to say.
Thereâs a discussion on Threads where married men have been opening up about how they react to finding other women attractive. Their candid responses keep things grounded and sparked a wider conversation about commitment, honesty, and self-control in long-term relationships.
That’s easy. There are a lot attractive women. BUT
A combination of attractive, sensual, clever independent, humble and positive. That would be difficult.
Me: âOh sheâs hot!â *shows wife*
Her: âD**n she is hot..â
Believe it or not, I am emotionally intelligent enough to find women attractive and still obsess over my wife.
My wife of 30 years was my dream girl the first time I saw her. Confident, tough, drop-dead GORGEOUS. She was walking across our production floor at work, with her cover-alls open, sleeves tied around her waist. Gawd- i was lost. From that day to this, she’s been the only girl I think about. I’ve made sure every day that she knows it. She knows what she means to me. I’m always proving it to her. Over & over.
In 39 years, I havenât seen anyone in the wild as hot as my wife. If I happen to see one on tv, Iâll say to her âsheâs almost as hot as you.â
We don’t deal with other “attractive women”. In fact, We dont even see other women in the room. The coolest underrated Superpower when you find your Person.
The same way I deal with passing by Krispy Kreme when the HOT sign is on:
KEEP GOING.
Because Iâve got âALL YOU CAN EATâ hot donuts at home
Itâs the same thing as owning a really beautiful home, or a really amazing truckâŠ.you see other trucks that are equally cool, but theyâre not a âthreatâ to your love for your home or truck. Because itâs like thatâs sick but âI have one of those tooâ and itâs YOURS too so thereâs some pride and favoritism there involved as well. You should take pride in your girl fr. Just like I take pride in my truck đ I love that goddamn truck, itâs perfect FOR ME
Itâs perfectly OK to recognize that other women are attractive, chances are they put work into it just as men care about their appearance. Appreciating that in someone doesnât have to be sexual, it can be simple respect. It has nothing to do with your marriage or your love for your spouse.
When you get married you don’t go blind, commitment is a choice, There are always attractive people out there but I find the calibre of the woman I married couldnt be matched and that’s the reason I chose her as my wife.
in Austria we have a saying: you can read the menu but you eat at home.
I sometimes say “that’s an attractive woman” to my partner, and she is agreeing. but I also say “that’s an attractive man” and if she says it, it’s ok as well.
This is why self-love is key. Why would I ever marry someone I don’t want to be around. Who’s opinions I don’t value? Just because I don’t want to be alone. Not me Ms Joy. I’ll be alone and comfortable with it than have my time wasted and to waste anyone else’s time.
I find a woman attractive. I say to myself, “Wow, she’s pretty.” Then I go and kiss my wife because there’s no one else on Earth who treats me as well as she does and there’s no way I could break her heart by cheating.
The same way I deal with finding men attractive. You go âthat dudes handsome!â In your head and then after 30 seconds you start thinking about how th Epstein files have lead to almost no accountability/ arrests, resignations in the USA government. Outside of the USA itâs led to protests, riots and the forcing of people to step down from leadership, resignation and more⊠probably because people more focused on simple insecurities.
I can acknowledge a woman is beautiful without it going any further. Iâm respectful about it.
Plus have you seen my wife? Iâve been a professional chef for years, and nothing I cook, bake, or prepare would be as good as how much she eats in every pic.
I surprised my wife with a movie date the other day. On the way in, this woman walks past us on her way out. I get my wifeâs attention and nodded in the other womanâs direction. Mind you, she had some curves on her. First thing my wife says is âYEESSSSSSSâ out loud, and Iâm DYING lmao. Meanwhile, thereâs a security guard that saw the whole thing and was laughing too. He looks at my wife and asked, âyou be lookin too?â And she said âHell yeahâ đ. My wife just so happens to be my best friend too.
i cannot tell you how frustrating it is for me to get really excited to point out an attractive woman to my boyfriend and he just refuses to look even a little bit in the direction i indicate. I JUST WANT TO BASK IN SOMEONE ELSEâS GLORY
What is with all these people mad about the guys saying they can acknowledge someone is attractive but it doesnât matter cause they love their wives. That is literally how it works. I am deeply in love with my husband and think he is Gods gift to me but I can still acknowledge a man that isnât ugly but I donât go off daydreaming about them lmao
not a married man, or a man at all. but my s/o (man) and I (woman) will be out in public, I will say âoh sheâs pretty!â and he will either agree or disagree with me lmfao. then we move on with our day. there is a healthy way to admire beauty of the gender youâre attracted to.
There’s nothing wrong with finding someone attractive, hell my wife and I are both queer and can find the same person attractive. But there is nobody in this universe that I am MORE attracted to than my wife. The sun rises and sets on her and her alone.
Attraction is natural.
But commitment is a decision.
She stood by me when I had nothing â and Iâll never forget that.
Iâm not the most handsome man, but Iâm blessed with a woman who chose me anyway
I donât find other women attractive. Said another way, Iâm not attracted to any woman but her. The accumulated experiences, understanding, loving gestures, family building, etc., that Iâve shared with this woman have completely inoculated me against any desire for another woman. She has my heart. Thatâs it. And she is super fine.
When I was younger, I would âfall in loveâ with someone for a few stops on the subway, then never see them again.
Now that Iâm married with a kid, itâs just âtheyâre pretty/attractive/whateverâ, and go on with my day because Iâm perfectly happy where I am in life.
(My wife and I also comment on attractive/well dressed/eclectic people when weâre out togetherâŠpeople are interesting.)
Firstly my wife is the most attractive woman in the world đ
Secondly, your brain automatically appreciates that someone is objectively attractive – thatâs just human.
The difference is that we also have moral agency, and knowing what is right and wrong.
It is objectively wrong to make vows, and then break them just because you find someone attractive.
So your brain appreciates that someone is attractive, and then you just get on with the rest of your day. Thereâs nothing to âdealâ with.
Not a married man but thereâs a line between seeing an attractive woman and lusting after her. I see beautiful women all the time but Iâm not sexually attracted to women so itâs just like oh sheâs gorgeous and carry on. The issue is that for men they often become lustful and fantasize not all but most especially those that watch porn just lustful asf
My husband gets hit on at the grocery store and I watch it happen. I think it’s great. Usually when she starts talking to him he mentions me. When I go to some places just to get a coffee and he does not come in with me I usually get it for free. đ€Ł He always says ” did your boyfriend give you free coffee again?” đ€Ł We tease each other. Flirting is one thing. I also have self esteem though.
Deal? Thereâs nothing to deal with. Attractive people will always exist. You choose to value what youâve built. ALIGNMENT OVER ATTRACTION ⊠men understand that.
Why some childish people think that men can only find their wife attractive ? Im married and I sometimes see other men that I find them attractive / hot. I then move on with my life LOL. Finding someone attractive just means you can see beauty and thats it. Doesnt have anything to do with being unfaithful or not lol.
I appreciate that when I open your eyes in every morning, this one lady next to me is the only one i get attracted to mentally, physically, spiritually. I am lucky to feel this gratitude every day
Women are beautiful and attractive. You can find someone attractive and still be a loyal husband. We are married, not blind. I can see an attractive woman, admire her beauty, and go on with my day knowing I have the best girl at home.
âYou know, there’s a million fine looking women in the world, dude. But they don’t all bring you lasagna at work.â – Silent Bob in Clerka
She might be a 10 but my fiancĂš has 1000 personalities I go home to. It excites me to get home to see which one Iâm meeting tonight.
There are women with desirable who are clearly beautiful. But there is no one that holds a candle to my wife. She is the default by which I compare the whole world.
Iâm honest with myself. Sheâs attractive and I appreciate her beauty, there is no shame or harm in that. Itâs everything that comes after that creates problems. But appreciate? Absolutely.
People generally repulse me if I never had to leave my house, I would be fine. so everyone that isnât my wife kinda annoys the hell out of me or I hate just because they are breathing. My wife makes me a better person as well as a very small assortment of friends whom I enjoy and acquaintances that I tolerate.
I’m not sure what you mean by “deal with”. I’m not a eunuch, of course I appreciate the sight of an attractive lady, but I don’t ogle. And my wife is abundantly all the woman I need.
Itâs really simple. We chose each other.
ofc there are attractive people everywhere. Hell, I hope I seem attractive.
The difference is love. Sedimentary layers of bedrock that are as hard as I am for my wife / my love.
Im attracted to my wife. There are other pretty women in this world yes and we acknowledge that, but I only want/ am obsessed with my girl who I think is the most perfect thing ever
My wife has stuck with me through thick and thin for 23 years. I can’t imagine my life without her. She is my everything.
There’s nothing wrong with finding another woman attractive. She’s not not as attractive as my wife.
They can be attractive all they want. My wife is my person, she gets me. Truly understands me. Gives me a reason to keep going. And sheâs hot af lol plus we donât keep anything from each other so I tell her if I see someone attractive and she either agrees or doesnât
You say âoh sheâs attractive, your wife either says âyeah she isâ or â I donât think soâ and you move on lol itâs not that deep when your married to the right one
I see them becaus I have eyes but thatâs about all. I ainât missing out on nothing. My wife is fine. I won the prize.
Accept youâre attracted but donât act on it. Youâre in a marriage not in a monastery. Also donât have such an ego to assume your partner doesnât find other people attractive.
My wife usually notices her first, but when Iâm by myself I donât pay attention to women who donât have my last name
My husband to me: oh wow babe look *points at attractive woman*
Me if I also think shes attractive: oh wow! Shes really pretty đ
Me if I don’t think shes attractive: really? You like that? Oh okay, shes not my type.
And thats that usually.
Just because someone is attractive doesnât mean I am attracted to them. I can appreciate the Mona Lisa but I am not gonna buy it. The love I have for my wife, , the passion, the absolute connection of our souls is what binds us forever.
I can appreciate other women are attractive, but they donât hold a candle to my wife. I told her this week sheâs my favourite sight my eyes behold every single day. That will never change for me
I say it to my wife âoh sheâs attractiveâ and my wife will either agree or disagree.
It ainât that serious especially when Iâm secure and obsessed with my wife.
I donât find other women attractive. Your eyes might draw to women but attraction never registers. I know that candles can provide light, but why bother when I have the Sun.
I can acknowledge when someone looks good, by no means am I gonna be attracted to them.
Iâm not gonna give up my girl for Zendaya, but Iâm not going around saying sheâs ugly.
My wife and I point out people to each other. We are two birds paired for life but that doesnât mean we canât enjoy the beauty of the garden we live in. We are secure and trust each other.
Itâs very simple: I can acknowledge another woman being attractive, but it doesnât mean Iâm attracted to them. Besides, my wife has already done a fantastic job of ruining me for all other women.
Always remembering that beyond the physical attraction, thereâs peace, joy and fun that my wife gives me everyday, which is there because of the special bond that she and I share.
