to think the woman in the pictures that DH takes is fugly and old

[activate]

and not me - she looks like someone who might have eaten me to be fair and my children seem to like her

who is this woman?

sigh

Quoi?

Is this your man's new partner perchance?

no, she is some ugly, fat old bat who keeps jumping in front of me whenever DH points a camera towards me

and I wish she'd stop

How bizarre.

Are you saying that they are photos of you but you're not photogenic or am I being incredibly thick?

Your kids like her though, so they know her?

MIL

I know exactly how you feel

Ah Megatron - that makes more sense. Sometimes that happens to me too then, OP.

Oh activate.. for you.

I'm sure you're just being over critical. Your DH obviously doesn't think do or he'd not he taking so many pictures!

know what you mean....some triple-chinned cheesy-grinned fugly seems to be in my place when i have my photo taken

This is making me laugh for some reason.

I edit all photos that bloke takes of me. I have no qualms about destroying the less than flattering ones.

holy shit - am I really not making any sense? It's odd what makes sense to you when you write is complete gobbledygook to readers

I am not photogenic and DH has taken up photography as a hobby - in my head I'm still attractive and holding my own - on his digital camera I look huge and wrinkled like the character that Les Dawson used to dress up as

On no you've all moved on to the . It was the MIL post...

activate - I suffer from the same problem, annoying isn't it?

Actually I think I know this woman. I'm sure it's the same one who leaps front of me whenever I have my photo taken too. Usually with an inane, slightly simple expression on her face. I hate her.

If he's taken up photography as a hobby, then he needs to learn how to use photoshop properly. Photoshop is my friend.

I feel your pain.
I have recently lost some weight and have been trying tl find a 'before' pic. Can only find one, from 2 years ago.
have purged all other photographic evidence i have a body, am just a face with too many teeth + a giant nose in the background

sniggers

oh dear, QT, that made me laugh. I am a shiny face attached to a giant nose.

I have become a chinless wonder - at least there appears to be no chin on my face, but 3 or 4 rolls of neck are competing to be promoted to be 'chin status'

They're clearly after a promotion.

I really don't look like me in photos. Whereas I am quite beautiful and my hair shines like spun gold in the summer sun, in photos I appear to be rather unattractive with mousy hair and fourteen chins. Obviously that's not right. Stupid stupid cameras.

Och, I bet you're all gorgeous.

yy megatron (nods) that's it

my shiny, sleek hair, unlined face are sexy bod are vampiric in front of DH's digital camera (ie they don't show like vampires in mirrors)
