Q: He thinks I'm ugly
asked by: GiRo on October 22nd, 2008

Hey,
I've been in a relation with my bf,
we never met in person, so only over the internet.

He's 5 years and 5 months older and momentarilly 23 and I'm 17.
First 3 months were fine, but then we started arguing.
I could accept it, because:
1. diff culture
2. young and older usually have diff thinking and experience
3. new relationship always struggles to get to know eachother
4. mother died so I was a little emotional.
But he often made statements that I didn't love him, or that I'm better off with a bf in my own country because I need support right now, he also said that he's tired of arguements, but he has always had trouble accepting it as a part of a relationship.

Often he just wants to flee, if we are trying to talk things over after the arguement he keeps telling, enough.. I'm tired of this talk..
But then we haven't made up yet.

Yesterday we had a discussion,
I went to the eyedoctor and I told him I need glasses or contacts, he inmedietly said I should try contacts because he doesn't like girls with glasses. I then continued that I'm going to try it, but if it's to painfull or it doesn't suit me then I'll wear glasses. He continued disagreeing and said I could just practise wearing contacts.
I was about to work on my schoolproject, I talked with him for 30 minutes and then told him I should really get working on schoolwork. He said, okay I'll leave, and when I said bye he was sad, so I said, why are you sad? and then he showed me a picture of a girl from my country...
I was like, okaaaay... why show me this?
He said he just ''found'' it while browsing through the net.
then I aksed if he likes here, then he replied she was cute.
SO I asked, cuter then me?
then he said you're most cute,
but he really likes europian girls, because he thinks they're cute.
I don't think it so I told him, and he said fool, then you're not cute too.
Then he said europian women are most beautifull in this world.
So i said, in my class are only 2 pretty girls,
he replied, pretty girl contain you?
So I said, yes to clear out most europian women are ugly.
He then laughed at me...
I felt so insecure... so I asked why he laughed.
He said just because I'm a confident girl.
I didn't believe it so I said:
you thought it was funny because you don't think I'm beautifull...
then he said: nope, you're cute.
I thought wth, he also thought the girl in the pic was cute, and cute is far from beautifull...
Besides, when I look at myself I DON'T think I'm cute LOL.
But people often tell it to me because of my behaviour.
SO I told him he just thinks it because of the way I act, not looks.
Then he said YES.
OMG my confidence now hit bottom level...
So I asked.. then what do you think of my looks..?
and he kept saying cute..
so I said.. not beautifull?
Now, a girl SHOULD NOT EVEN HAVE TO ASK this!!!
And then he said, you want beautifull???
LIKE, as if he thought: you're not beautifull, but if you want it I'll say it.

So.. he thinks europian women are beautifull, but not his gf..

SO, then we just showed eachother some pics of ugly and pretty people...
and then he asked if I want his penis inside me.
what, I was hurt and he expects me to just say OMG YES I WANT IT.
For christs sake I'm only a vergin, yes normally I say it because I know it will make him happy. But to be honest, I don't know how it feels to have something inside me, so I honestly said: I don't know if I want it.
Then he was insulted, after he treated me like this!!!???
How can he expect me to want sex with him!!!
Then he started saying things like: if you love me so much you would want it.
So I said, if you love me so much, why don't you let me make my homework!?
then he said, please do it, I'll leave now.
I said okay and bye and he left with a mere bye..

I feel like I'm the only one fighting for this relationship, because everytime we argue he wants to leave and wants to break up with me.
And I'm now so insecure...
I've always told him he's beautifull when he sends me pictures,
but now I clearly remember him always saying 'cute' when I send him pictures.
THe only time he said I'm goddess of beauty was when I sent him underwear pictures...
Then, if I'm beautifull in his eyes.. why did he say such a thing like, you want me to say you're beautifull???!! Sad

It just hurts me so much to feel insecure about the fact that I don't even know if my BF thinks I'm beautifull..

please tell me what you think and what I should do, I'm so confused..

Just putting it out there . why do you have a bf in another country? Honestly how can you love somebody you have never met that is in another country? I think you shouldn't be putting so much into this .. it just sounds like he's having some online fun with a 17 year old girl. I'm sorry but if I were you I would get a bf on my area.

But I hate my species, I hate the mentality of the people in my country, so I can never love someone in my country.

And I'm in a relation with him for 7 months now, and it is very possible to love someone without meeting, meeting is only the phisicall habits, but you don't love someone for their habits only, you love someone for who he is on the inside.

He's not having some fun, because he's planning on marrying me and having children.

can i just say that you're completely over reacting...you're seriously upset because you're boyfriend is calling you "cute" instead of "beautiful"...i think in this case honestly your age is showing..you need to pick and choose your battles, if you argue over every single little thing ESPECIALLY about what kind of compliments your boyfriend gives you then i'd be reaching a breaking point too! The guy is trying to compliment you! You're cute! Take it and leave it at that! geez...i wont say that i dont think that long distance relationship can work because i think they can IF both parties are willing to work at it,though i personally have never been in a situation where i met a guy online and began a relationship...this relationship has alot working against it, not only the age difference(which is obviously a problem here) but also the distance...i suggest you start acting a bit more mature if you wish to keep him around...cute is NOT a bad thing, play it up...and stop getting upset about it!

I don't think you're understanding this, he's been trying to manipulate me constantly..
He knows I'm easilly jelous, so why would he show a picture of a girl he happened to come across to me? If I can't even talk to another guy..

and I was allready upset about him not allowing me to wear glasses, then showing the girl and when he couldn't tell me if he thinks I'm pretty then I just felt insecure..

And yup, I'm part racist, I hate the mentality of my own people, Dutch, and also that of germans, because it's mostly the same anyway. But of course every country has some good people, so SOME dutch are okay-ish, but I wouldn't pick one as my bf ever.

So we are not talking about flat ugly here? This is like saying, "I'm poor because I'm not rich." If you are 'cute'. then more likely you are abover average looking, maybe in the 6% attractive range. I would be very happy.

Would you be happy if your gf looks at other men and thinks they're hotter then you?
because you're just that 6% and the others he looks at are more?

oh come on..if youre boyfriend is manipulating you then why are you with him? I would never be with a guy that toyed with me and acted childish like that PLEASE, he doesn't allow you to wear glasses?thats pretty ridiculous if you ask me..there are plenty of other men out there that would consider you gorgeous or beautiful i'm sure so why the heck are you wasting your time on a guy thats a) in another country and b) clearly depresses you....i will say that its only human nature to look at other men/women..my boyfriend and i have been together for 2 1/2 years now..i still look at other guys and think "wow he's cute"..doesn't mean i WANT him..hes cute..thats it...i love my boyfriend..i'm happy..period...so if you're THAT jealous then thats going to be a problem in any relationship you have...good luck with this one, i feel that if you continue this relationship it will only come with more problems...but hopefully not...

Okay, first hearing this, I needed to read it real carefully before answering. Because I know you and I should give you the advice I think I should give you.

It's difficult to judge eachother on such a distance and difference, but I think it's very clear, no need to say it's because he's Japanese or something, but I just think every person knows the following: if you love each other, you wouldn't say someone's ugly, or someone else is more beautifull then your girlfriend is. You should say the inner side is way more important then the outer one.

I mean, he's free to say European girls are nice-looking, because I usually always say it honestly when I think someone's nice-looking. But I discover you being a little bit jealous about this when I read your conversation with him. I can imagine you being jealous, but it's not neccesary! Always remind yourself; if Shun loves you, you should trust on the fact he likes you most.

I've been so jealous so often, especially when I was in a relationship as long as yours is right now. But I can say it's a learning progress between you and your partner, I already discovered you need to practice that person to person and that you're already getting jealous if it's not the person your practiced it with.
Man, that was hard to tell in English, hope you understand the last line.

Anyhow, if this continues, you should think about if you're ready for this long-distance relationship and if you think it's important enough to continue with. I'm in just that phase now, I don't know if it's good enough and if I really wanna continue the way it is right now.

But if you feel like talking, you always can phone me, please remember that! I think the way I explain this in Dutch is way easier then in English!

Love,
Karian.

I read your post and its just rediculous that he's toying wit u like that. first he's being inconsidertate of your feelings and hun that just shows that he's really not interested in you. if he tells u your beautiful only when u send him undie pics...he's utterly lame. old perverted men who toy with young girls do that on the internet, u should have been more careful. 7mnths uve been together? uve never even seen him in person so it doesn't count. he's getting bored with u, that's why he's making u jealous and being inconiderate. u need to try andstop worrying so much because he doesn't care if your hurting, he's actually adding to your hurt! open ur eyes.
