Husband said he could get a prettier woman than me

[Suzy25]

Hi everyone. My husband was in a bad mood and said something out of character. He said that he could get a prettier woman than me if he wanted and that he gets chatted up randomly when he’s out. He said he turns them down but I feel really insecure since he’s said this. Any ideas on why he said such a thing? Also how do I go about this? Thank you.

Because he is a d**k?

How to respond??? We would need a bit more background

He said it to hurt you. Obviously. He got a vicious little thrill out of causing you pain.

Tell him to fuck off and go get one then.

So he's with you for your looks but reckons he could get a prettier one !
Tell him to crack on .

I mean a petty side of me would want to say I could find a man with a bigger…. But we don’t bite do we 😂 What a dick, tell him to come back when he’s found her!

Does he say other emotionally abusive things to you OP?

What a prince. Why are you with this dick?

It depends if it was the most out of character thing ever … but yea still as above it’s a pretty disgusting and horrible thing

Posts like this make me realise there’s something wrong with me because that would be a separation as far as I’m concerned.

Was this really out of character? How often is he unpleasant to you because he’s in a bad mood? Is he getting in a bad mood with you or is he taking out his bad mood at something else on you?

I know people say everyone’s too quick to say LTB around here, but I would find this shockingly cruel in a relationship. Like, I cannot imagine for a minute telling a partner I cared about that I could get someone better-looking/nicer/richer/bigger dick if I wanted to. From my own perspective, that would feel like a relationship-ending thing to say.

Tell him to fuck off and do it then. Prick.

It was done deliberately to make you feel insecure and inferior. You will then put up with shitty behaviour because you are afraid of losing him to another woman.

Tell him to "Jog off and you can do better than him". Bye forever.

Yup, definitely a dick. But that is obvious, and this can't be the first time he's said something like this. However, you need to figure out why you are with this man, and feeling insecure. You are clearly not comfortable in your own skin if this kind of behaviour makes you feel insecure. It should make you question your choice in men, not yourself.

Call his bluff. Watch him fucking try.

Why was he in a bad mood? Because he had to turn one of these women down and is annoyed at you?

tell him to go and do so then.

unkess this is the first example of any negativity, I say leave. He is spiteful and nasty

I'd laugh and tell him to crack on.

Then I'd start getting my ducks in a row.

Jolene would send this prick back.

The pretty women he's talking about are probably poor teenagers in customer service rolls that fake laugh at his "jokes" or comments.

Honestly op, why put up with this.

He needs to be careful what he wishes for, I’d be like off you fuck then….if the grass is greener go pee on it. You’ll be far happier without this twit

Tell him to crack on then and let you know when he’s found one.

Tosser.

I’d tell him to go ahead then, no one is forcing him to stay. But to remember if he does go he’s never coming back.

I’d have laughed and told him to carry on. Arsehole!

Does he think he's the best you can do?

Alot of men would get a reality check by seeing the attention their girlfriend/wife would get on dating sites compared to themselves.

If this was a first offence and he's normally very lovely, I'd tell him if he ever spoke to me like that again regardless of how grumpy he might be feeling, he'll be welcome to pack his bags and go find one.

If he wasn't normally very lovely, I'd skip the warning. A partner is supposed to lift you up, not squash you.

I told him I wanted a divorce as I couldn’t tolerate that kind of disrespect. He apologised and said he didn’t mean it and he only said that as he feels insecure due to the fact that I get a lot of male attention. The thing is looks wise everyone has always said I’m out of his league to him so he’s insecure. He’s also never said anything like this before but I don’t think I can be married to someone I no longer trust. The fact he said such a thing makes me feel like he’s looking around.
