...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.

No, not by a long way.

We haven't had a proper partner before each other as we have been together since we were 15 and 16 so I can say a whole hearted YES!

ReverseGiraffe · 18/01/2018 19:07

I'm the prettiest, facially. Not the skinniest, but DP loves me and the way I look.

Justmuddlingalong · 18/01/2018 19:08

I wouldn't know, haven't asked and don't care.

XmasInTintagel · 18/01/2018 19:12

I think probably not...he mentioned an ex who quickly drove him nuts with daft conversation, but he'd been flattered by her interest because she was stunning...I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be deemed stunning, but he seems to like my witty repartee Grin!

Sallystyle · 18/01/2018 19:16

No idea. I have never seen any of them.

I doubt very much that I am the best looking person he has been with.

goose1964 · 18/01/2018 19:47

I hope so. Though the only comment I've had in relation to my looks versus his was that I'm a lot younger and prettier than a work colleague thought I'd be and DH says he thought I'd be out of his league

LemonysSnicket · 18/01/2018 20:49

Yes. He only had two other girlfriends, one who I’m friends with. His mates say the ‘punching’ line for me too.

I’m not a stunner by any sense but I’m just a bit more symmetrical/ have better teeth.

multivac · 18/01/2018 20:51

Hell, no. He says that he "probably wanted intelligent children".

Grin
Growingboys · 18/01/2018 20:53

Yes definitely. My DH is handsome but used to be a bit shy and crap with women, so I think I got him at his prime!

I still tell him he's punching though. Good to keep him on his toes.

phoenix1973 · 18/01/2018 20:53

I was, yes.
But time has not been kind.

redexpat · 18/01/2018 20:59

The other 2 were Norwegian so probably not, although he'd probably say I was Smile

Farmerswife36 · 18/01/2018 21:00

I'm pig ugly and wonder how the hell dh finds me attractive ? I'm definitely punching way higher than I should as dh is gorgeous

Yes! I actually am much prettier than his ex. She is not the same type of person at all. Hearing what their relationship was like actually makes me feel sick.

Interesting replies! Thank you Flowers
