writes: My partner has always been very attentive to me. Just lately though I have noticed him checking out women who are half my age. It makes me feel so inadequate + i feel very angry + jealous. I have not felt like this before in our relationship - as i (used) to think i was confident and he did not have issue about my weight. Now I I keep thinking again + again that he does not fancy me. + every time he does this makes me feel worse and worse.

My confidence and self esteem were badly damaged but I'm recovering now. There are men out there who will love you for who you are, whoever you are. Take the plunge, take some time to recover, find someone new and forget this immature loser.

The next time he does that, call him out, get up and leave or ask him to take you home. We teach other people how to treat us.
If he doesn't fancy you because of your weight or your age, then he is a shallow person and you are better off knowing that now and cutting him loose to be free to oggle whom ever he wants. And if that should happen I am sure he will learn a hard lesson, that chasing after young skinny flesh is not the same as having a real love relationship, that is if he has half a brain.
If you allow his bad behavior to make you feel less than, then that is just telling him that he is correct about you. You're better than that, you are a human being, a soul with a body that serves you quite well, and if he can't appreciate you for your inner beauty, then he will forever be boring to be around, for YOU.
