writes:My boyfriend has no problem telling me that other women he comes accross or sees on TV are better looking then me. I would prefer believing that in his eyes I am the most beautiful woman in the world. I know there are women more attractive then me, but I don't need him to tell me that. Maybe I am overreacting about this, but my boyfriend really hurt my feelings by saying this. Do you think that it is alright for your partner to say this to you or do you think that they should keep it to themselves?? Reply to this Question

I am glad that it wasn't me over reacting.
He still believes it was alright what he said, even after I gave him your opinions.
I know deep down inside that this man doesn't deserve me. And I know that I deserve someone who will show me love, compassion, and understanding.
Keep up the good work agony aunts because you really are helping alot of people.

I wish I could be there to see his face when you pull this one off. How's it feel, asswh***e?"The above is an example of an over reaction. If you hit him that is assault. Not all men are like the person above says. some women can be pretty material as well.However this guy is trying to cow you into silence to make it seem that he is doing you a favour. Personally I wouldn't waste breath on him I'd leave him, he's an idiot and he will only realise whats gone when it is gone.

Watch for a really nice piece of jewelry, or an expensive t.v. or something and then show him and say "isn't this a great t.v., Lori's husband bought her one, unfortunately with your lame ass job, you'll never be able to buy one for me...Lori is such a lucky girl" and walk away.You see....men don't care about the good looks/bad looks thing, but they do care about money. I wish I could be there to see his face when you pull this one off. How's it feel, asswh***e?

I'm betting you've been dating this creep for a long time. If so, he's getting tired of the relationship and he's no longer attracted to you. Maybe you've put on weight or you don't dress up like you used to. Doesn't matter. Dump him and move on. Security is no substitute for love and happiness. In a few months, he'll discover the grass isn't any greener and he'll be crawling back to you. Stand firm, he sucks, you deserve better.

He doesn't have a clue about real-world relationships, and the best way for him to learn is for you to walk straight out and never look back. Let him live with those better-looking girls on the TV.

 Wow I think that is completely insensitive, if my boyfriend started comparing me to other women, well I would start to seriously consider the future of that relationship.
It's either stupidity, or a very nasty streak and neither of these sound very desirable.
How is everything else in your relationship?

 It needs to be kept to himself. Why compare? So, some are better looking than others, and on tv, some are still better looking than others. Who cares??? He's with you and not them, so it's pretty rude and degrading for him to bring up what he has been with you. Don't take it. Tell him to quit or see ya.
