Looking at pictures

I've noticed my partner as looked at a couple of pictures of women on Facebook, they live local to us he hasn't liked them or messaged them that I know of. Maybe they popped up in people you may know.

How would you feel about this because I don't know how to feel about it.

I trust him 100 %

My husband isn’t bothered if I look or talk to another man either . He sure would be if I were checking out pictures of men who made more money than him and getting all hot and bothered
It’s not controlling or a sense of ownership to have boundaries over ones partner having a wank back of women
That’s the thing here . We don’t know whether that’s what he was doing that or not if it’s just looking innocently at a picture of a person well whatever , but if it’s sleazy keeling off over women , many women are not comfortable with their partners doing that and it’s a dealbreaker for them . Nothing controlling about that whatsoever

@inappropriateraspberry

If they're people that live locally and not complete strangers, then I would have thought he was just being nosey. I often end up clicking on profile pics to see if I recognise them or their friends (male or female). He hasn't hidden it, it wasn't porn, just a couple of photos of people. Has he messaged them, or have a history of chasing other women? If not, I really wouldn't be worried about it. If you can never look at the opposite sex, we'd be walking around with our eyes closed and could never watch TV again!
No he's hasn't messaged them or got any history of chasing other women. It's fine now it was all innocent

@Washingtofold

Hopefully it’s all sorted and turned out not to be anything to worry about Vickyjane

@Bluntness100

He wouldn't mind? If you were looking at pics of other men?? Why not

What? It’s Facebook! I’m certainly not disrespecting my husband if I look at some hot blokes Facebook,. 😂

Not saying OPs husband is but I think most women here realise that when men do this quite often they are wanking over them I can’t tell you how many times I’ve read or heard ken saying that they enjoy pics of women they see daily or someone who could really be a potential partners to wank over rather than porn I doubt most women looking at men’s pictures on Facebook or Instagram are doing the same. Some might but I’ll bet most don’t That’s the big difference
