BEAUTY VS BOOTY? PART 2

I want to first discuss the difference between a glance (brief look), a stare (a fixed look) and a double-take (a delayed reaction to something unexpected, immediately after one's first reaction) before I delve into the situation of Larry and Sylva in BEAUTY VS BOOTY.

I wonder what you are thinking! Which one (glance, stare or double-take) do you find or think is the most respectful when you are out with your significant other?

I believe that staring and committing a double-take are both extremely disrespectful; yet a glance can be as well! Let me explain using Larry. A first glance is totally innocent but if Larry continuously glanced at the other woman in front of his wife, simulating the "nervous eye effect" he would probably be receiving, the "I'm getting up from this table before I catch a charge" look from Silva. On a more serious note, that kind of behavior is immature and makes evident a lack self-restraint.

Just to briefly touch on the double-take, do not do it! This is the most disrespectful because that is where lust materializes and your imagination begins to work against you. The longer and more you begin to fantasize, the closer it puts you in the "danger zone"; or exposing your relationships or marriages to the entrance of "the point of no return". 

If you can remember, Larry completely lost focus of Silva's response because he was staring at another women. This is can be very hurtful. Did Larry do this on purpose?  I do not think so based on the scenario. What was Larry thinking? I could probably guess, but I am not going to go there! So, what happens next? Read the continuation of Larry and Silva's conversation below.

SILVA:  What was that? What just happened here?

LARRY: I'm sorry! I apologize! 

SILVA:   I cannot believe my eyes right now!

LARRY: Baby, I am so sorry! You do know that I love you

                and I would not trade you for the world.

SILVA:   Ok, that is beside the point right now!

                I think what happened was unacceptable!

                You ignored me to do what? Stare down

                 another chick!   

LARRY: I know and I am sorry. But it wasn't like that!

SILVA:  Ok, so enlighten me because I am really feeling

               dishonored right now!

LARRY: I never meant to dishonor you and I should have

                exercised better judgement! This is not good!

SILVA:  What about her had your attention?

                I want the truth!

LARRY: I really thought her dress complimented her shape.

                It just reminded me of how you looked when you 

                used to dress that way!

Silva's eyes slowly began to squint as small imaginary daggers began to stab Larry in his forehead. Not too long after, the little green monster named jealousy began to flare up as she turned hot with fury.

If Larry's final response is the truth, he recognized a desired aspect his wife used to possess in another woman. This may sound aloof to some, but I believe that this can happen. I suppose that when Larry met Silva, the way she dressed is what peaked his initial attention. So what should Larry do from this point on? He should definitely let his wife know that he enjoys seeing her wear certain styles of clothing. It also sounds like he needs to compliment her more often as well as buy her a gift card to her favorite clothing store.

Silva on the other hand, needs to ask of her husband's opinion on how she looks in her clothing. Go for the look that makes him not be able to keep his hands off; I am referring to a respectable "can't keep hands of look" ladies. Silva is clearly experiencing feelings of jealousy and that means, as far as her way of dress goes, she has lost some form of self identify that she desperately needs to reclaim for her personal well-being. Having feelings of jealousy, I believe, is a sign of possessing beliefs of inferiority! It must be addressed sooner than later!

I'm almost done with completing my thoughts. Let your eyes rest and stay tuned for BEAUTY VS BOOTY PART 3!
