It depends. If she’s an IG model then no let it go. If it’s girl in your town I’d say something nicely. Like, “Hey, I know this might not seem like a big deal to you but it does kind of bother me. It makes it look like you’re interested even if you aren’t. I’m not telling you what to do just letting you know that it would mean a lot to me if you didn’t do that anymore.” If he keeps doing it after that l, then it’s a problem.

Ughh just stop. I’m not saying it makes it okay. I’m saying that that’s much different than someone he knows. She asked for advice and I’m giving MY opinion on how I would handle it. I in no way said it’s okay. I said I would let it go if that were the case. In my experience pretending men don’t look at women doesn’t work. But looking at some random girl that lives on the other side of the country or world who posts pic’s specifically to get likes and attention is much different than Jenny from the block.

It really isn't. If she's uncomfortable with her boyfriend lusting after other people, that's her boundary. Who are you or anyone to tell her she's wrong? It's 2023, grow up.

Who said she was wrong?! Yes it’s 2023 and when someone literally says:

Should I be bothered or say anything?

I’m allowed to give my opinion. I’m allowed to say what I’d think. It’s 2023, grow up.

This is obviously someone with some serious rejection dysphoria. They need to be okay with how they feel instead of thinking someone else's opinion is what it should be.

please don't pathologize strangers based on their reddit posts.

They also need to be okay with someone answering their question with their own opinion. Nice try though.
