Everyone finds my boyfriend somewhat ugly. I don't. But even my siblings say so, how do I stop this?

[Anonymous]

My brother and my sister keep telling me that my boyfriend of nearly 2 years is ugly. Like so the heck what? But it makes me mad that when they see him they give me this look like "you couldn't do better?" And they start laughing. Some of my friends say he's okay and that he's not bad looking, but my brother and sister make me feel like crap because I love someone they find terrible to look at. My boyfriend is EVERYTHING any girl would ever want, and that's why I love him. Once again, it just ticks me off that they always have something to say about my boyfriend. So how do I stop this? It's beginning to become too much.

had the same problem. people are superficial.. I think it's pretty cruel, not only to the guy but also it suggests that you have no taste; which is also an insult. let them know what I just said (with your own feelings/words) if you're confident about confronting it. otherwise you'll just have to "get up and walk away".. sometimes that's enough too. if they have any heart at all, they'll get the hint.

ps.. our family and friends always want the best for us. sometimes it comes out the wrong way. tell them that as well. "i know you guys want the best for me, but I love from inside out, not outside in.. we are more than that".. it comes down to a spiritual thing; that tomorrow if one of us were in a fire, or a car accident, and were once beautiful - would you make fun of me too? would you consider me "ugly"? what someone thinks is ugly, and what another thinks is beautiful is each person's opinions. but when they become harmful and hurtful that's when someone needs to adjust their foot into the north direction of their face.

it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks but you, these people seem very shallow and childish, but the more you show you are bothered the more they'll make remarks, best thing to do is act as though it doesn't bother you one bit and just state well I think he's gorgeous, I love him and he makes me happy!

Seriously you lucky to have someone who you love and loves you back. Your siblings could also be jealous of the bond you have, either way I don't feel it is of great importance what others think, as long as you happy :)

I have the same problem. I think my boyfriend is very attractive, and my little sister doesn't. witch is fine, but she takes it to far, every time some one we are close to asks about him or meets him she says "doesn't he look 12?" or "look how short he is!" He is very attractive but has softer feeters, and looks younger than he is, and is about 2" taller than me. I'm 5ft 7in. so I'm kinda tall. I got sick of it so because she was saying it in front of him and it was bothering us both. I simply pulled her aside and told her how he makes me feel, and that he treats me amazing and that for that she should treat him better. Give it a try and tell them looks arnt every thing, if someone makes you that happy it just makes them that more attractive to you. tell them they don't have to think he is ooh so handsome, that just you do.

Hey, honestly it shouldn't matter what anyone else thinks of him as long as you like him for him. Sure anyone can go out and find someone more attractive then the next perso but it doesn't mean that their as caring or sensitive or light hearted, it just means their better looking. Looks mean nothing.

[Asker]

I totally agree

you know what?... WHO CARES! tell them to mind their own business & shut it! :) ha ha They are the one dating him are they? Nope, that's you. & you think he's amazing. Who cares what the rest of the world thinks. If he treats you right & makes you happy then he's a keeper no matter what!

Aren't you happy? Why would you seek approval from others?
