When we first met there was alot of drama, and in those circumstances you get to know the real person your dating. I think its because of that I dont get jealous - im secure with my relationship. To be honest, I think a small reason for lack of jealousy stems from not depending on him. Im the breadwinner in our relationship, and neither of us are together because we need to be, we're together because we want to be.<br><br>I dont know - Im blabbing here. Definitely need sleep.

Frankly I think if he did he would say because some of the stuff I write about is messed up so how could he not?<br>yes, a Miley Cyrus lust blog would be a bit much. I guess it would still be weird if he were up at night twittering with fans of Eva Longoria or something, don't you think?twilightcupcakehttp://twilightcupcake.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1062767807677407480.post-45021120294512172182010-02-21T16:07:55.000-08:002010-02-21T16:07:55.000-08:00I always mean to comment but rarely do - I'll ...I always mean to comment but rarely do - I'll try to change this.<br><br>First off, you make a valid point.If I caught someone (a male) in my work running a miley cyrus blog that I would be a little bit creeped out and probably wouldnt think the same about the person who ran it. Whereas guys just accept it that Im sitting in the corner googling RPattz images.<br><br>My boyfriend does run a blog which he links me too everytime he posts, granted not about women, but if he ever were to run a blog about a woman in particular, regardless of who it was, I wouldnt be that put off. I as a person require alot of alone time and privacy, I am a loner by nature, always have been. My boyfriend is exactly the same. He knows I need an outlet for what interests me and thats what my blog is all about. He occasionally checks in on my blog and we discuss it later, I actually love he takes such an interest. <br><br>I feel the same about him, although Miley Cyrus is a bit wrong because of her background with disney in my eyes.<br><br>Plus I would be kinda concerned about his choice of woman and how that reflects back onto me.<br><br>This was a really good post, you got my brain thinking after working night shift - not an easy accomplishment! :DPoptarrtsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1062767807677407480.post-36915308392578016982010-02-21T15:59:57.000-08:002010-02-21T15:59:57.000-08:00@Mrs. P - I would say that I am much more jealous ...@Mrs. P - I would say that I am much more jealous than Mr. TC is. I hate that I am that way and thank God that he is so secure in himself.<br>@Munkee the idea of some 70+ year old lady with a bunch of hot guys - LMAO!<br>@Jelena - dearie, why do we always make the other person think so much? It's good for our souls I suppose. I am with you 100% and glad that this seems to have added a positive passion to our lives and a good benefit to our husbands I'm sure.twilightcupcakehttp://twilightcupcake.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1062767807677407480.post-58792332127622736082010-02-21T15:49:26.000-08:002010-02-21T15:49:26.000-08:00I'm going to write my comment first before I r...I'm going to write my comment first before I read anyone else's, because I'm afraid I might forget what I wanted to say otherwise. <br><br>Miley Cyrus, yuck! But if it was KStew, or some other hot girl/woman, I wouldn't mind that much.<br><br>However, I've been thinking a bit after my yesterday's post, and I've come to this disturbing conclusion: all of us who are obsessed by Twilight, needed to place our obsession somewhere - so there came poor, unsuspecting Robert Pattinson, and voila, we're here. All this hype is pure fun for me, I seriously have no hots for Rob, but I appreciate him aesthetically and how the photos and videos make me feel. But then, I use that same feeling to project it on my husband. It's no secret to me that my husband probably does the same thing. I am not overtly jealous person, so I don't mind him looking or even commenting about other women. I try to explain this to him every day, that I only use this Rob dude as a source of inspiration for creative things, that he is, by no means, object of my desire.<br><br>Therefore, if that KStew or Miley Cyrus obsession was in fact just personification of something deeper, more profound, like a book or saga, than I probably wouldn't have a problem with it. <br><br>I hope you understand what I meant, cause I was kinda all over the place.Jelenanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1062767807677407480.post-2989225219604322602010-02-21T15:25:46.000-08:002010-02-21T15:25:46.000-08:00Yeah, I think of Hugh Hefner....ANYTHING we do is ...Yeah, I think of Hugh Hefner....ANYTHING we do is tame by comparison.

I know it seems about time that things swung the other way. One of my aunts is obsessed with a singer and I always thought she wanted to hug hk<br> and it felt very innocent when I was young. Now looking at how I think about Rob and what we discuss doing to and with him it is definitely not innocent at all. A different power structure in some ways and at some times.twilightcupcakehttp://twilightcupcake.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1062767807677407480.post-22881551223897827932010-02-21T09:22:30.000-08:002010-02-21T09:22:30.000-08:00Thanks for the link! :)I've wondered about thi...Thanks for the link! :)<br><br>I've wondered about this as well. Grown women lusting over a man that, for some, could be their son. It's not a problem for me since Rob and I are in fact the same age. I suppose it's a double standard, but with good reasoning I believe. How many times throughout history have men had the opportunity to manipulate and use women for their own satisfaction? Exactly. Although women are surely capable of manipulative behavior, I think that the intention is different. The power structure is different. I'll stop before I start writing a thesis for a women's studies paper. lolAmyhttp://missamyjoon.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
