I find that this happens a lot lately when it comes to social media, everyone is tempted to look at ”hot” men or ”hot ” women.

I have deleted any thing to do with social media, which i was very obsessed too and it was the best thing i ever did. I put my hands up when i first got with my bf, i was doing the same thing as i was massive into my fitness and i was like fitness models men and women alike, something i have always done even in my previous relationship. When i got with my now current bf he pointed out that he did not like it and made him feel ”inadequate”, i found this as some sort of control and jealousy and got angry with him saying that they are just models and not people that i know etc.. until he started doing the same (Obviously to give me my taste of my own medicine) and i hated it. I am also insecure of my body always have been, he on the other hand goes to the gym 6 days a week and has a 6 pack so i didnt see how looking at other men who looked the same as him would make him feel insecure, yet it did. I now totally understand how he felt and so i stopped, you cant help but look sometimes but you have to respect your partners needs, if he or she feels shitty about themselves and you liking pictures of other women/men bothers them then you should stop. Unfortunately social media is the hub of making the majority of girls and women feel very insecure about themselves, wouldnt it be nice if all of these sites could just go away and we all do one big clean up lol.
