A female United Kingdom age 22-25, anonymous writes:

Hi all I'm a 16 year old girl. I've been in a relationship for 2 weeks now and I really adore my boyfriend. He compliments me constantly and is so sweet he makes me feel so special.

This morning I noticed that he had started following a page on Instagram (I was not looking through his Instagram it came up on the followers recent activity page) this page was full of women in their underwear and some naked photos. After this I quickly looked to see who else he's following and there is a lot of pages with buns. I'm more upset at the fact that he followed this page this morning. I'm just really upset and i don't know if i have a reason to be upset.

These girls look nothing like me with huge boobs and I'm just sad that he feels the need to look at them? I'm not sure how I feel... Any help will be brilliant: why do I feel like this? Do I talk to him about it?

aunt honesty agony auntAt your age it is normal for you to feel upset, you are developing in to a woman and for a lot of people that brings out a lot of insecurities. I bet when you see these pictures it makes you feel even more insecure. It is perfectly normal to feel like this, just like it is normal at this age for guys to look at pictures of girls.

When he compliments you he means it so carry on feeling special. It is nice to have someone who makes you feel good. There is a good quote to go by in a relationship... you can look but not touch.... It is normal for men and women to appreciate the same or opposite sex it doesn't mean he thinks any less of you, or that he does not think you are beautiful, you are more than just a half naked picture to him.

I know it feels a bit rubbish when your boyfriend looks at stuff like this but I'm afraid to say it's pretty normal for guys that age. When I was 16 my boyfriend bought car magazines with pictures of half naked women in them and I got quite upset about it. I really wish I hadn't now because it caused arguments.

I'm in my 30's now and I can honestly say I hardly ever get jealous any more, it wouldn't bother me if my partner watched porn, I'm really comfortable in my own skin now and I know my partner finds me attractive.

Your boyfriend finds you attractive otherwise he wouldn't be with you. Men can be insensitive creatures and they don't realise what their actions make you feel like sometimes. Although he looks at these photos he also compliments you and makes you feel good too.

Do you ever watch films in with say Channing Tatum or other really buff guys, I bet you have some celebrity crushes but that doesn't mean you wish your boyfriend were somebody else or looked like somebody else.

Honestly as you get older it won't bother you so much, you've only been dating two weeks so try not to bring this up as it may scare him off or make him feel like you're checking up on him. I know you weren't but he may think so.
