Hi
Can anyone give me the honest truth about what you think makes a man choose a certain woman? why their husband chose them?
I think I have a bit of a worry that it is all looks / body orientated at the outset and do you think that is true?
I am seeing someone new, and as a size 16 I really like him and feel truly paranoid that my body is not good enough / not what men want - but he seems to not notice. Seems to think am perfect.
Am I being unkind here or are men just not as shallow as I think?
Not sure why I see them as shallow, but definitely grew up in a house where women's looks were the most important thing about her and I am not sure if that is just realistic or really distorted.
I look all the time at men in magazines, and they are all married to model types. You don't seem to see many male movie stars paired up with a slightly chubby housewife who might be kind and very funny.
Can anyone give me the real truth on this...are there genuinely men in the world who would love you for your personality over anything else?
This man I am seeing could have his pick of anyone and I feel a bit confused over why that choice seems to be me.
