If it helps, I've now been married to my wonderful lady for nearly 2 years, and we make it a fun thing to point out attractive people to each other - "What do you think of him then?" "Oh, she's nice!". I get playfully hit each time I do it, and we now say if I go through a day without being hit, there is something wrong! I'm always pointing out nice ladies to my wife - quite honestly, and she points out nice blokes to me.

Seriously, it's actually a part of our relationship - it's an affirmation that we are still human and still find others attractive, but would never act on it. It's fun to joke about - we are both really happy with it.

When you look at it from a biological perspective (the fact that my wife is a biologist may help), it's only natural - we are looking for the best mate that we can - it's instinct. The good thing is when you can accept is happens and even make it a fun part of the relationship - talking about it means you are happy with the feelings and happy with your SO, as you have nothing to hide.
