Keep Those Roving Eyes Under Control


From TODAY, Voices

As hard as it is for most women to understand, men are wired to notice other women even if they think their wife is the prettiest girl in the room.

Some doctors blame a biochemical reaction in the brain. Many men will tell you it’s just a habit.

The reality is men are visual beings and attractive women trigger a powerful emotional response. It is not a sign of emotional or physical unfaithfulness.

But guys, don’t think that lets us off the hook!

You and I still have a responsibility to keep our emotions in check and our roving eyes under control.

Simple glances can easily turn into a habit of staring, and it can also lead to lust.

On our wedding day we made a commitment to only have eyes for one woman, and that’s a promise we should keep.
