Long time no post...

I have a quick question for you: while engaged, is it normal to get cold feet and devlopment a tendinicy to look at the opposite sex? Only look, but not act upon.

Is that normal :?:

Yup normal, at least it was for both me and my wife.

It probably won't stop after you get married either. Seems like human nature to me. Just remember, looking is one thing, staring, drooling, and breaking your neck to get another look is another

Look all you like, just don't touch.

I have my wife'* permission to look all I want to as long as I don't make comments that she can overhear.

My wife also has instructions to bury me when I stop looking.

LOL

She is 25 and I am 26. This will be a first for both of us I ask because she talked about last night and I was rather perplexed by it. It kinda makes sense to me, that the person that you are with will be it - forever

There will be no rubber necking on my end

just from my perspective. . .

she had cold feet.
i have recently developed a stronger tendency to look at the opposite sex than normal (its a bit unsettling).

fwiw.

Yup, that was one thing that we talked about early on in our relationship. I made sure that she understood that I was going to look, and I also made her realize that I am not jealous if she looks. I knew she would.

Truth is, you could be with the person that you think is the absolute hottest person in the entire world, 11 out of 10. along walks someone that is a 7, and you still look

Perfectly normal or you wouldn't be a man.

Look all you want, as long as she doesn't catch you looking.

......and never tell her you looked.

Congratulations on your impending end of freedom. j/k
