Real-life drama at the beach ... Rammy's in trouble again ... apparently the wife doesn't like me taking pictures of other women

Amongst the ~200 photos I took last week at the beach, I snapped 3-4 pictures of some hotties that were walking up and down the beach. The wife took great offense to this and I thought it was playful at first but (as women are apt to do) an argument ensued which turned into her giving me the cold, silent treatment for the next 24 hours. She indicated I was "to take pictures of only her & the kids".

Disrespectful? Immature? In hindsight a little, but in her words "I'm married, I'm not dead". I wasn't peeping through a peephole at some ESPN hottie, I was taking a picture of someone strolling a few yards in front of me proudly displaying the goods that God gave her. Just how insecure can she be?

Is this a potential for a double standard? The wife had a massage at a day spa from a "young surfer dude" who was checking her out. Do I come out with the directive "no man can touch you except for me at any time". To take it to another level, shouldn't I be able to get lap dances (I don't btw) without feeling guilty. I agree that's extreme, but give me a break.

I thought things had cooled down the next day or two (makeup OTs) but then out of the blue the wife went through and deleted the pictures on my camera - which simply pissed me off. The following is all that's left. It was intended to be a humorous presentation to the lounge: (a) picture of hotties, (b) picture of wife holding up hand in front of camera, (c) picture of ocean as wife punched hubby in stomach.

I don't necessarily agree with your wife's reaction, but I think you're an idiot for taking pictures of other women.

That's just plain odd and creepy laugh out loud

Yeah, think about it this way... You don't have to be a creep voyeur, there are loads of people on the internet that will be that person for you Comfort

Nono2 The Outer Banks of North Carolina. Primarily a family-oriented beach but there are some outstanding MILFs and quite a few women that haven't had their bodies wracked by childbirth that stroll along in barely-there bikinis.

I like you, Rammy, but are those pictures really worth the grief? It makes her feel bad and that should be enough for you not to do it IMO.

I never assumed you were going to do that with them, because like you said the internet had free porn, which is probably 10x better than what you snapped picture of.

But seriously, what would you do with them?

it does bring up some insecurity issues which might need to be addressed professionally.

I had no idea she would go off the deep-end like that. No, its not worth the grief and no I didn't mean to make her feel bad. The pics were more of a gut reaction "wow, would you look at that ... hey, I have a camera".

I don't make it a point to drop my jaw when good-looking women pass. I notice (like any good man does) but don't yank my head around. The wife, of course, will playfully punch me in the stomach if a hottie goes past and my eyes happen to glance her direction ....

Uh dunno ... don't miss'm other than the purpose of bringing a bit of humor and levity to the Lounge.

So why not tell her that? Maybe if she knew why you were taking the pics, she wouldn't care as much.

Iagree

And really? Professional help because she doesn't want her husband to take pics of random chicks while on a family vacation? Give me a break. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

This is totally different, though. Even the lounge guys called it odd and creepy. laugh out loud
