Does unattractive BM make you double or second thought yourself?
Let me start off by saying I don't claim I am the best looking woman in the world, but I have no problems attracting men. Now that I am engaged, I still have guys flirt with me all the time. I am 5'7" 120lb exercise everyday and I am toned with feminine curves.
Anyway, I finally met BM yesterday. She seemed nice, but damn, she is ugly. I am sorry to sound so harsh, judgmental, but she is truely an unattractive person. She is fat (sorry if I have offended anybody), has really bad skin, and she doesn't take care of herself.
My fiance said she at least gained 30lbs after they divorced, (too depressed I suppose) She is in her early 30s and still has zits all over her face. Her hair is dry and unwashed, she has no style or fashion sense. She is just a very disturbing looking person.
This makes me wonder: How did my future husband find the urge to mate with her? His response: I don't know what I was thinking at the time.
So now I know that in the look department, I have nothing to worry about. But again, this makes me wonder, did I just about to marry a man who can jump to anything that moves?
AM I the only one feel this way? Plus, step kid lookes exactly like her mother. haha
oops I meant to say Doubt
oops I meant to say Doubt not double :?
My last post kinda sums it up
My last post kinda sums it up for me.....I look at my DH (inside and out) and look the the BM (inside and out).....I do not know how he did it for 14 yrs!
There must have been something..he slept with it at least twice!
She is an ugly person on the inside and much as she is on the outside...can you say, "Miss Piggy??" LOL...UGH Gross!
lol haha
lol haha

Would you rather be with a man who jumps the hot, dumb as fuck chicks?
I never understand the posts (and there are a LOT!) about Sm's looks/ BM's looks. I don't get it. He probably loved BM, and that's why he mated with her. Of course, NOW, the idea of loving her is nasty, or the new lady can't fathom it, so it "must" have been something else.
Personally, I would MUCH rather be with an ugly-as-hell man with a kind, loving soul over an asshole hottie anyday of the week.
ETA: to answer your question: don't ever let anyone else cause you to doubt yourself.
"I never understand the posts
"I never understand the posts (and there are a LOT!) about Sm's looks/ BM's looks. I don't get it."
Fuckin amen. I get so tired of seeing so many posts like this. We can all wonder about what he must have seen in her blah blah but the point is, he screwed her. Period. Get the hell over it already and MOVE ON.
*rolls eyes"
Damn.
"I never understand the
"I never understand the posts..." Posts aren't always meant to be understood. Sometimes posts are just random thoughts of things that torture us from day to day. Most of the time, those random thoughts don't really amount to major life changes but it DOES help to get them out of our system anyway, right?
Some of my own feelings & thoughts seem so stupid and petty even to me, but when I write them out, it somehow feels better.
As for "BM's looks" I myself have shuddered and shuddered and wanted to puke when I saw what BM looks like. I mean, DH might as well have fucked the Tales from the Crypt Cryptkeeper puppet. And yes, that did make me doubt and wonder if I was just his next big loser. Of course, I was able to easily rid myself of that doubt when I looked in the mirror at all my accomplishments. But, there were times when I did doubt myself over that. Petty? Yes. Stupid? Yes. Not worth thinking about? Yes. But should I feel bad for being a bit disturbed by the thought? NO.
I know...I used to wonder
I know...I used to wonder that about my DH too. His ex is soooo gross. Her face is all smashed in like a pekinese dog and she, too, is fat! Lol! After the first time I saw her, I asked my dh if he lost a bet. He wasn't too amused by that comment.
lol Lost a bet!! that is a
lol Lost a bet!! that is a great one. I need to ask my fiance that tonight![Biggrin](https://prod-cdn-1.ststatic.com/sites/all/modules/contrib/smiley/packs/kolobok/biggrin.gif)
Yeah that is true hehe I
Yeah that is true hehe
I guess as girls, we are competitive.. I figure I can never be the first woman who gave my husband a kid, but at least I can be better in other areas.
yes, I understand what you
yes, I understand what you are saying. but I heard from all my guy friends at early ages that men are visual animals and they need to find the person to be attractive in order to have sexual fantasy about them. So I can only accept the fact maybe my fiance's stardard is too low. But then again, maybe he is just not a very superfacial guy.
I guess looks aren't
I guess looks aren't everything but I was surprised to see BM for first time mostly because she is VERY different than what I expected. I'd seen a few of his post divorce ex's and they were more "along the same lines" I suppose and I guess I was expecting something different. But when I met BM--hmm. This was pre-lapband and she was nearly 300 awkward shaped pds. She had bad extensions, bad skin with a lot of scars, bug eyes but most of all was her persona. Brash, dramatic type who tends to use her hands a lot and talks loud and uses what I consider "ghetto slang". She wears ill-fitting clothes more fit for young girls who's still size 4 and under 21. Her accessories are big bicycle hoop earring types, long fake nails with designs.
At the same time though she grew up poor with a schizophrenic mother and alcoholic relatives, she is college-educated with a high paying job, large home, luxury vehicles so again it was a contrast. She is arrogant and feels she's the one 'who made it' (with the help of DH working 3 jobs to get her through college). Post Lapband and supposedly 85 pds, she is even worse with the clothes and tries even harder to be seen and heard. When others have met her or his long time friends met me, they wonder how he went from one extreme to another. I guess because she was like 18 when they met (she's 35 now), she was different. I don't know but yeah... pretty different. Pretty different.
sigh! LOL what a horrible
sigh! LOL what a horrible horrible sight!
You should see it in person!
You should see it in person! Every other word is 'Mmhmm, Boo-child" and "For Real!" and "chil' please" and "oh hell no!" all complete with head and hand gestures and so on. She's like a sitcom character in her behavior. Lol
My husband married BM when he
My husband married BM when he was 28 she was 29, never finished college, had no place to live. (she was renting a sofa bed in her F buddy's house.) Which is pretty sad because even they were F buddies, she could not get anything for free. lol
In a way, I feel very sorry for this lady, but in a way, it helped me understand husband a little bit more. He was a pay roll specialist at the time, already bought his own house. He graduated from college and was still pursuing his MBA. I guess he found her to be attractive because she worshipped him at the time. I don't know, just a thought.
My man likes to be complimented and he wants to be hero in a woman's life. He definitely rescued her, no doubt about it
yeah, he can be supportive
yeah, he can be supportive and loving, but he cannot rescue anybody. Some people are leeches and freeloaders, they need to rescue themselves first. BM is still this way unfortunately, I think she is one step away from claiming social welfare which is truely sad. I hope she is not taking advantage of the system, not saying everybody who receives social welfare is taking advantage of the system, but she is lazy, so we will have to see.
DH is paying quite a bit of childsupport right now, and she still needs extra to do her hair (well, not his responsibility) I don't know why she needs so much money for her hair, not like she has much left anyway.
I will say that I do not
I will say that I do not understand how my other half was BM for 5 years or how he decided to mate with her. I will say I know the back story and why he married her which was out of naive-ness and stupidity but he thought he was doing the right thing then though bringing SS into the world would help their marriage. I have seen early pics of BM and she was never super attractive but did look a lot better than she does now....hell she has gained weight and lost more looks since me and him have been together. I know it is hard looking and comparing yourself to others but remember people gain weight, depression makes people not want to take care of themselves...my BM seems like her hair has gotten greasier, her hips have grown and she just doesn't care anymore.
I personally saw BM and told my other half "upgrade" almost immediately meaning not only by looks (this was before she totally let herself go theory was she thought he would go back) but because I actually have a job and hold myself completely differently.
yep I hear you. I love the
yep I hear you. I love the word that you chose "upgrade"![Blum 3](https://prod-cdn-2.ststatic.com/sites/all/modules/contrib/smiley/packs/kolobok/blum3.gif)
It just seemed like the most
It just seemed like the most fitting - like I said early pictures she wasn't as ugly...and she just isn't a good person and he found me. His son was getting in the car the first time I saw her and it was all I could thank of. I don't compare myself to her because I am the "upgrade" and despite whatever he had with her I am his future.
I am inclined to belive you
I am inclined to belive you on this one. My own brothers are this way too. They are faithful, honest, good men to their wives right now and their wives are pretty attractive women. But when my brothers were younger, OMG, they changed partners all the time, but all those chicks were UGLY!
The only "doubt" I have is
The only "doubt" I have is whether DH opened his eyes EVER when they were together. I mean, come on, to wake up and screw that... eeeeewwwwwwwwwww.........
Skygoddess...I think we are
Skygoddess...I think we are twins! I am 11 yrs older that my DH and BM...I own my home, car, a few bucks in the bank and raised three awesome kids 23, 21 and 16..I am 47. Evil C*nt..is a troll also...smokes, drinks, gets high, lazy ass, miss piggy look alike! Its Jennifer Aniston vs Kathy Bates!
lol this is great haha My
lol this is great haha
My future DH told me exactly the same thing, "guess why do I love you so much? because you are everything that person is not!"
Made my day!
hell yeah! I hear you. If BM
hell yeah! I hear you.
If BM insist on being a loser, too bad! I kind of feel sorry for her daughter, the pity motivates me to be a somewhat okay stepmom, with all seriousness and honesty. ha!
Even if anyone else's were
Even if anyone else's were hot, they're not gonna admit it. DH's ex isn't the UGLIEST person I've ever seen, but she certainly isn't attractive, in my opinion. Even DH says he's not sure what he saw in her physically. Hell, he was a BULLRIDER at the time, he had "buckle bunnies" lined up to sleep with him. He had his CHOICE and he chose her. Then got her pregnant and "had" to marry her.
She's about 5' tall (same as me), maybe a lg B/C cup (I'm 38 DD, DH is a boob man, definitely), was overweight when they were together, but as DH said "she stopped eating" and lost it all. She doesn't have a horrible figure, but she's more boyish shaped. Has short hair that she wears straight and flat and sometimes it's an auburn color, other times it's black. She smokes.
Me: I'm 5' tall as well. Long blonde hair. Large chested. Weigh about 130. Curvy but not too fat. DH loves my figure, I think it needs work. I'm very woman-like though, hourglass. Not like she is, straight, like a board.
^^^LMAO at the "what doesn't
^^^LMAO at the "what doesn't belong" reference. I'm not THAT far physically removed from BM but certainly more attractive. Wish we could share photos on this site. You'd see a MASSIVE difference between my daughter and his!
