Question Posted Tuesday September 23 2008, 10:12 am
I'm not the most attractive person. I'm not ugly, but I'm not exactly pretty either.
But my boyfriend always tells me how I'm the most beautiful person on earth in his eyes, and I don't see how that is possible. I just feel like he is lying to me :-(
Any input?

You have some self-esteem issues, that's clear. Have you ever heard the saying, "You have to learn to love yourself, then others will love you"? Well sweetie, if you keep questioning whether or not he's telling the truth, that's going to wear down your relationship. He's trying to make you feel special because he loves you. That's not the time to wonder if it's true or not. Just take the compliment and realize that you are beautiful.
To him you're the most beautiful person on earth. You owe it to yourself, him, and the relationship to trust in what he says. [ xlovexx463's advice column | Ask xlovexx463 A Question ]

YOu're kidding right? Most women would love to have their man tell them that very thing. YOu have to build your self-esteem. If you don't, it's going to affect your relationship and he might be turned off. Men don't want to hear how unattractive you think you are when they are constantly tell you how beautiful you are. I don't know how old you are, but you will soon learn that they want to feel like everything they tell you is gospel. If he thinks you are beautiful, why not believe him. Would he be with you if he didn't think so? Count your blessings and the next time he tells you that you are beautiful, smile and say thank you.
Good luck,
