“He says I shouldn’t be upset because obviously he doesn’t think I’m unattractive or ugly, but I could look even more beautiful if I tried, and he deserved to enjoy me at my absolute maximum attractiveness. He also said he is extremely jealous that my last boyfriend got to be with me when I wore more makeup and was thinner; basically that I was more “beautiful,” and he is upset he doesn’t get to enjoy my beauty as much as some other guy did.”
Her boyfriend would not drop the topic and even stated that she would be prettier with a lot more makeup and that she should want to do this to make him even happier.
She eventually couldn’t hide how upset she was getting, and he picked up on that. In response, her boyfriend just said he wanted to know what it was like to basically get to see her when she was in peak gorgeous condition.
The entire conversation left her feeling so awful about her appearance, and she’s now terrified to let her boyfriend see her without any makeup.
Prior to this little chat, her boyfriend did say that she’s pretty, but it annoys him that she could look even better and has “more potential.” How’s that for a backhanded compliment?
“I wouldn’t mind dolling up and wearing a full face of makeup for, like, a special date night if he didn’t make me feel so bad about it,” she said.
“I suppose I’m just sad that my boyfriend doesn’t find me as attractive as he could be and that it seems to be really bothering him. I really don’t know how to go about the situation or what to say to him. He just thinks I don’t care about his feelings when he saw how upset or unwilling I seem to be about it. He even started crying…IDK what to do. I need feedback and other male and female perspectives.”
