i was having an interesting convo w/ my girlfriends today... shes married and she was raving about how hot this guy is that she met lol... but thats it, clearly shes not gona implement on that...butt
i dont htink since ive been engaged...ive been 'attracted' to any other guy besides FH lol, sure theyre are cute/hot/sexy guys out there..i just dont pay any attention i guess... lol
but is it possible to be engaged and still be attracted to other guys, isnt it human nature? but its only wrong if you act on those feelings...
had a hugeee discussion w/ my crazy friends about it... was wondering what you girls think!

LOL...LOL...(laughing because I have been and I seem to be in the minority!)
Attracted like he is hot...or attracted on an emotional level? I think there is a big difference..I can say I check guys out alot...but I would never do anything with them..I think it is human nature...and what makes it a marriage and a commitment is to not act on this impulses...
I believe we are all animalistic at the core of us :)
I totally agree! I definitely find other guys attractive, however to me no one can even compare to my DH. I love him for everything (his looks, personality, sense of humor, his heart, his family, etc <-- I can go on and on!). But I would be lying if I said that I don't think anyone else in the world is good looking. That does not make me love my husband any less. And I am not a fool either, I am sure he looks at an attractive woman that walks by him (I do too). But at the end of the day their is no doubt in my mind that he is coming home to me!

Re: Attracted to other guys...
of course we are still going to notice other guys, we are human, but it wouldn't matter because we all realize that we have someone even better that we can't wait to marry!!!!

im w/ you
Me too! LOL
I'm not even shy about me finding other guys attractive. If I see a hot guy, I say something! Need to alert the single friends!! FH doesn't care...he laughs at me...he says I'm equivalent to a construction worker cat-calling women. LOL

Re: Attracted to other guys...
Too be honest. Just because I am getting married does not mean my eyes are dead. Right now, a lot of us are in the honeymoon stage (we are all soooo in love, blah blah). It puts blinders on us. However, eventually we will (or do already) look at others and are attracted to them. It human nature. It is acting on it which is the problem. My FH and I got into this conversation with another couple. The girl believed that her boyfriend did not look at other women. He lied to her and told her he does not look. She was naive to think that he does not look at other women. My FH will look at other women and we will rate them together. It's all in good fun. I'm okay with it. I know he loves me and as long as he does not act on his attraction then we are cool!

I think this is a healthy way to go. To be open and acknowledge together that there are other attractive people in the world, and to try to turn any insecurities into fun. It can be surprising too! There may be some gal you think your man would think is fine, and you end up being way off the mark.

In my mind FH is the hottest guy on the planet BUT I can recognize a handsome gent when I see one For me attraction goes way beyond the aesthetic. I have to be mentally stimulated to actually be 'attracted' to someone.

You haven't been attracted to other men, but have you been around other men? I usually do not get attracted to other men because I am never in the position of being alone or having a conversation with any attractive men besides my hubby.

Re: Attracted to other guys...
i think that just cause we are engaged/married girls, doesn't mean that we are going to NEVER have a single attraction to another man. and anyone who says they HAVE never or WILL ever have an attraction for another man on earth, is totally in denial!
think about it--when you swoon when Brad Pitt or Jake Gyllenhall is on the screen, it's cause you are ATTRACTED to him....just cause he's not in front of you, accessible, doesn't mean it isn't a genuine attraction.
we are human beings---and if we happen to find someone at work cute, or something, or are out at a bar and see a hunky guy and think 'Well he's hot!', i think its normal. now walking up to said hunk and jumping his bones...that's a different story.
i joke with FH that we both have our 'Top 5' list...5 celebrities that we are both allowed to f*** if the opportunity came up in real life! he's not jealous, nor am i!

I think its ok to think another guy is handsome or cute, but to act on its a totally different story.

I have to agree...
I'm married, not DEAD lol...
I mean, I'm still human and when my girlfriend started dating this new guy she really liked- she asked me if I thought he was cute and what am I going to say? 'Oh no, I can't comment b/c I'm married--- OUCH MY EYES ARE BURNING!!!!' Sorry, I'm just kidding around- but seriously, I said 'oh yeah honey- he's adorable! Nice eyes!' and that was that...
I even comment on women! There was a girl at a party the other night that had the most amazing boob job! They looked fantastic- So I said to my girlfriend Daniella (she wants one) that I would go with her to get them done- maybe we'll get a group rate!
But seriously, there are attractive people all over the place and when I see one-- I think, like most people 'oh what a dish!' and that's the end of it...
But of course- I would never act on anything like that, I mean- that goes w/o saying.

I think other men are cute/handsome, but there is no one like my FH - he's gorgeous!
Well said!
That was basically what I was trying to say above (in a nutshell).

I agree. I definitely would never act on it. Sometimes FH and I will bet together and meet someone who happens to be attractive and we tell each other. It is almost inevitable, most people are drawn to beauty.

Melissa, is this your way of trying to tell me that you seriously have a thing for Vinny? B/c deep down I always had a feeling but now that I read this- it makes me realize how much you do lust for him (and he lusts for you)... uh oh!

Re: Attracted to other guys...
Funny convo! I definitely see guys that make me think, 'Oh cute!', but it never goes any further than that. Its like as soon as that thought pops into my head, its gone.

Re: Attracted to other guys...
I'm always attracted to other guys. I love men. And being around other men makes me appreciate and love my FH even more. It just sets in stone what a great choice I made. You can be attracted to many things it does not mean you have to have them.

I'm attracted to only one other man besides FH, and that's Johnny Depp!
Ditto that! I even have a make-up bag that says Mrs. Depp ;)

FH and I joke about this too. We each get one 'out.' Mine: Derek Jeter His: Nicole Kidman (but according to him, old Nicole Kidman, not current Nicole Kidman!)
