Her Boyfriend Said That His Ex-Girlfriend Was More Beautiful Than She Is And Now She’s Feeling Incredibly Insecure
A 27-year-old girl has a boyfriend who is 33, and yesterday evening, they were cuddling up together and chatting about things.
She asked her boyfriend if he could tell her everything there was to know about the life that he has led so far.
“He jokingly starts off by saying he was born on blah blah day and walks me through his childhood,” she explained.
“Then he talks about his teenage years and mentions all of his past girlfriends. He said his first GF actually invited him to her wedding next month, and I was like, ‘wow, it’s impressive that you’ve stayed such good friends with all your exes; that’s not the case for me.’”
Her boyfriend then questioned her about the most attractive guy she had ever been in a relationship with, and she didn’t hesitate to say he was the hottest one by far.
She then turned the question back around to him, as she wanted to see how he would answer the question.
Her boyfriend told her that of all the women that he has dated prior to her, he thought his ex-girlfriend Alice was the most beautiful, but he then clarified that “of the people” that he is currently dating, she is the most beautiful.
“I laughed it off since obviously, I’m the only one he’s currently dating, so I asked him again, but considering me in the same group,” she said.
“Big mistake. He said Alice.”

“I asked him why he said that, and he doubled down and said “because it’s true, I think she was..’”
She was so upset by her boyfriend saying that his ex-girlfriend is more beautiful than she is that she pulled away from him and said she needed some space away from him.
It seems that he still has no clue how much his words cut her, and she’s left feeling like she’s playing second fiddle to Alice.
“Thing is, Alice died in a tragic accident a decade ago when they were dating,” she continued. “I always feel like she truly has his heart, even though he swears it’s not the case.”
“But then he says things like this. I can’t console myself with the idea that even though he thinks she’s more beautiful, he chose me —because he didn’t have a choice with her.”
“I’m an insecure person…and I never feel desired by him. This is less about me comparing myself to his deceased ex and more about the mere fact that I expected him to see me as the most beautiful.”
“This has really hurt me, and I don’t know how to move forward. I cannot shake the feeling of being a downgrade.”
Do you think there is a way for her to move forward here?
