Okay, I said I wouldn't share personal stuff, but I do have a situation that I need you *polite* advice to. My friend's new boyfriend seemed like a nice guy. When I first started going out with them to do things, he would tell me that I looked nice or that my hair looked pretty, etc. I would say thank you and change the subject. My friend was around for these compliments and I didn't think anything of it. I just thought he was being nice.

A couple of nights ago, we were out and he was drinking and he said "your legs are so hot" "you have a nice body" and "you have nice t***s" at different times in one night while my friend wasn't around. I didn't know what to do, so I just kind of mumbled
"thanks" and walked off to talk to someone else. I feel bad because I feel like I opened myself up to these comments when he said I looked nice, etc but they seemed like nice, harmless things to say at the time. Anyway, how should I handle this? What should I say to him to let him know that his comments make me uncomfortable and should I tell my friend? Thanks for your advice.

He definately passed a line. I wouldn't do that myself personally. Some guys do what's called a bomb approach. Throw enough out there and somethings gonna stick.

I don't think a guy should comment on a woman's **** as you put it .

Unless of course she's your woman.

I'd expect a true friend to put him in his place immediately, no need to tell me about it unless he persists.

Tell him not to speak to you like that ever again unless he wants his family jewels misplaced.

Neither should we be flattered by it, unless he's your man. Not if you've got a healthy self-esteem.

Yeah, just saying b'c I've known women who were. But thanking them gives them the impression you are flattered, you can see that, right?

And that's not how I put it, its how he put it and I find it offensive that anyone would talk to me like that, much less my friend's boyfriend

The friend is a difficult one b/c it depends on your friend. For example if I were in your situation I know my best friend well enough to know she wouldn't be mad at me or do the you initiated thing whatever but other girls I know would be mad at whoever told them so it depends. But him I think I would let him know if it happened again that it is highly inappropraite to talk to you that way it makes you uncomfortable. Good luck!
