text: why does my girlfriend weird out when i look at her for longer then 5 seconds when we are just laying there? we could be just laying in bed and she can either be sleeping or just watching tv and i just like to look at her because she is beautiful and i love her so much. my experience with this is that she is insecure about herself. looking at her longer than 5 seconds might give her the idea that you're picking out her flaws, even when you're just admiring her beauty.
