...And if not, how do you feel about it ?

Just wondering out of sheer nosiness interest really. I am almost certain that I am not. I have seen a couple of his ex's and they are fairly attractive but probably about equal to me. But he was very popular and good looking when he was younger and also a semi professional footballer so has probably been out with some proper stunners. Whereas I was gawky as a youngster (improved a bit in my 20s and 30's!) so have no exes that are remotely as attractive as H.

Good God, no. I haven't got a DH/DP but if I should somehow (accidentally) acquire one in the future then I'd show my arse in Poundstretcher window if I were the best looking girl he'd been out with Grin

I'm not renowned for my looks!

Littlepond · 18/01/2018 15:43

Nope, I'm not very attractive and his exes are all incredibly pretty. He obviously finally learned not to be so shallow and discovered my sparkling personality Grin

CrispyAubergine · 18/01/2018 15:45

LOL stevie !!! :D

If you compare yourself to others you'll only drive yourself loopy.

What does it matter if he's with you now?

FunkyChunk · 18/01/2018 15:45

God no. I actually worry about it sometimes. But for some reason he thinks I’m the best thing since sliced bread!

dudsville · 18/01/2018 15:46

I am with current and hopefully last partner. I wasn't with previous partner. I can't recall beyond that.

aabidah86 · 18/01/2018 15:47

Definitely not! Not that I've seen them but he's said with me it was my personality that won him over (thanks babe...I think?)

dudsville · 18/01/2018 15:47

Just realised I was wirk previous partner as well, I had in mine his teen crush but that was unrequited.

x2boys · 18/01/2018 15:47

I know two of his exes in would say I'm better looking than them yes but I don't know about all of them? I'm not sure if he's the best looking out of mine either if we are talking about boyfriends ,flings ,one night stands etc but we have been together 13 yrs now so I guess it doesn't matter Grin

AlonsosLeftPinky · 18/01/2018 15:55

No idea, I haven't asked for a gallery of pictures of his exes.

MrsStinkey · 18/01/2018 15:56

My DH and I were pretty much teenagers when we got together and he'd only really had one girlfriend before me, he was with her at highschool and then a couple of years after. I can only really judge by her so I can say yep I definitely am. She's nothing like me really. Bigger, taller and not as girly. His friends were all really shocked when he introduced me to them, so they said, as I was nice looking and he was "punching". Doesn't bother me in the slightest, even if she'd been very attractive, because I know it's me he loves and nobody else!

My partners ex is an actual princess. I know her too and she’s nice as well..... I like to think I must be better in bed though Grin

(I know because I am his one and only GF!)

Dozer · 18/01/2018 15:58

Oh god, how did that happen? It wasn't posting then BAM

OakIsBetterTho · 18/01/2018 16:00

Gosh it sounds ever so up myself but yes, I think so... of the ones I know/know about anyway. His ex was technically a 'model' but she was far more.. alternative than me.

Chienrouge · 18/01/2018 16:02

DH only has one ex, but I don’t know how to judge if she was more or less attractive than me? Surely it’s subjective? She was thinner than me, does that translate to being more attractive?

Chienrouge · 18/01/2018 16:02

She’s probably nicer than me too, to be fair.

demirose87 · 18/01/2018 16:03

Yes. But it doesn't really matter. Someone might be conventionally good looking but doesn't mean I'll fancy them. To me he is the one I'm most attracted to, but others may not agree with me.
