What to do when women start noticing you



Recommended Posts

I guess I better start wearing my wedding ring so no one gets the wrong idea.;)

PS I probably sound like a ****** for even starting this topic, but once a topic is started you cannot remove it.

Hey..it always feels good to be admired. It doesn't sound you are leading anyone on, so enjoy!

It doesn't take long for regulars to notice. I have women at church and local restaurants commenting all the time. Twice I have had women come up comment and even hug me with my wife watching.

Yeah, it's a real b**ch being a sex symbol :)

I too have had a few women comment, sometimes inappropriately about my "figure" and new muscles. I really make sure to let the wifey know that I am NOT encouraging these advances.

I grab my own ass and say, "You like that don't you?"

OK, I stand corrected. ^^^^This is in the running for best post I read all day.

Nothing wrong with being noticed, hun. It makes me feel sexier and adds to the excitement when I see my hubby.

I have not checked my posts in a while. Didn't realize this thread was still alive.

On a side note, my wife got me a new wedding band for Christmas since the old one was getting loose. She was totally understanding about the whole thing when I mentioned it, but she does not want any misunderstandings either biggrin.png .

I was taught that the appropriate response to a compliment was a smile and a thank you. The appropriate response to crudeness is a frown and a no thank you.

As a gal, it Is sometimes hard to make you look great not come across where a guy assumes you mean "and I'd do you". Sometimes it just means you look great.

I love this thread. Its completely appropriate. We're all human! Its NICE to feel admired - even by those that we sometimes feel maybe felt obligated to make us feel admired in our lowest points - which usually coincide with our highest points on the scale.

What to do? Enjoy it and go tell your wife that she has exactly what all those women want! Lucky lady! :)

It wasn't even a compliment that prompted the original posting. It was a smile from a woman I passed every day while walking on my lunch break. I have since got over it. As my wife said when I first mentioned it "OMG, now you think you're hot and she is probably just being nice."

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
