YAG(girl)T: Lose Lose

[sixone]

I don't understand why women ask these questions, then get all upset when you don't think she's perfect. Who is?

I think it's more flattering when a guy sees my faults, and wants to be there anyway. I'd wonder what was wrong with a guy who can't see any, or who won't admit it.

 

[Chrono]

hahahaha. awesome. i've learned that you have to be really careful when talking to females. anything you may say will haunt your ass in the future.

When a woman asks what you would rate her, rate each part individually. But do it sexy-funny.

1. Ass that won't stop. 4 points.
2. Breasts that make you want to sit up and beg for buttermilk. 5 points.
3. Traffic stopping legs
etc..etc...
And while describing each part make sure to caress that part, that way you might get some sex.

I wouldn't expect such insight into a females brain from you. Great tip! I'll try it with my girlfriend the next time she wants a compliment

 

[Krazy4Real]

Wow... sorry, but she has issues.

 

[Lola]

why did you just post this if it happened 9 months ago?!
I just noticed that!
you shouldhave posted this then so you would have known what to say when she asked again!

As a man, you are by no means ever required to answer a woman's questions with anything other than extreme sarcasm. Please remember this fact in the future.

 

[Zolty]

dump her you will be happier.

thats probably sound advice. though make sure you have known them long enough to be sure they have a functioning sarcasm meter, or you could be in deep sh!t. :laugh:

My ex-wife was like that. If I ever pointed out anything I liked about any celebrity, she flipped. Then later if I ever said I liked anything about her that is any way related to what I said about a celebrity, she flipped because then I was comparing her to them. So I kept my mouth shut. Other's have suggested to stay mum about the topic. But after 11 years, it just wasn't worth it.

No more. With my new GF, I'm open and honest. I mention when I find someone attractive and why. I then ask her what male celebrities she finds attractive and why. If she can't take it, tough. I'm not keeping mum for the next 70 years of my life. Luckilly, the new GF doesn't mind.

I like many models, I find them attractive. Yes, I see the women on TV. I don't just magically go blind whenever a good looking woman comes around. I do see them. I'm not lying any more. But with all those attractive women around, I am still with my GF. My GF is beautiful to me and I'll never stray. Just because I see them doesn't mean I lust after them. Just because I find a celebrity to be pretty doesn't mean I'm going to cheat or anything. Just because I like their ____, doesn't mean I'm comparing my GF to it and it doesn't mean I don't like my GF.

It is so, so much better this way.

OMG, I was laughing so hard reading the OP because that hit home big time. My ex used to do that to me all the time because she was so insecure. Sarcasm is indeed the only way. The problem is that you answered the question truthfully once and there is no way to get out of it now. I'm sure there's a good chance you really do believe your girlfriend is more beautiful than all those celebrities, but it's going to be hard to get that thought out of her mind. She'll bring it up again in the near future. It gets worse than that though, wait until you get one of these...

Ex-girlfriend: Would you ever want to have a threesome with another woman?
Me: I wouldn't want to do anything that could potentially ruin the relationship we currently have.
Ex-girlfriend: Oh come on, I really want to!
Me: I don't know, I really don't want to take a chance with us.
Ex-girlfriend. But I really want to!
Me: If you really want to, I'd consider it.
Ex-girlfriend: Are you kidding me? You'd actually consider doing that!?!?! You like other girls!?!?! I thought I knew you!!! I thought you were different!!?!
Me: ::Bangs head against wall::

You can't win man, sarcasm all the way.

Reassure her that you are more than just physically attracted to her. That even if when she gets old and grey, she will still be a 10 in your eyes because what makes her beautiful isn't just what you see on the outside. That she is more of a woman to you than any other girl out there. Explain to her that you wouldn't have married her if you weren't fully into her.

Seriously. Your woman is insecure like many women on this subject. You need to pull her away from thinkng that her worth in your eyes is based on her physical appearance. Do this and she will "melt" in your arms.

I don't even know what i would want for an answer so i don't think i would ever ask a question like that!
I guess you should have said "we all have our flaws, myself included, but to me you are perfect. Not only are you physically beautiful, but also kind, thoughtful, honest...". with a sincere voice, that would have been fine.

Bingo! Pull her away from thinking that you are marrying her for her looks.

WAIT!!! of course she wants to make sure you think she is pretty/sexy besides smart, etc/

I'm telling you, be sarcastic. Rate her a 1 and tell her all her good qualities. When you talk to her again say you rethought your position on the matter and decided shes a 1 because shes TOO attractive, and TOO helpful, and TOO nice, ect.

Editors note: I would have been brutally honest because I don't have a sense of modesty. I probably blurted out 6 or 7, and been totally ****** the rest of my life.

The sarcastic route works for me. When my wife asks me if she's fat, I say, "Hell yes!," and go on with an over-the-top description of how she's fatter than anything that exists or could exist in the universe. This works because (A) it makes her laugh, and (B) it effectively gets the point across that I'm not playing that game. Do not ever actually answer any of those sorts of questions.

 

[ColdFusion718]

Don't you get it? She was testing you. She wanted to know if you'd make her feel beautiful even years down the road. So it's just not what you say; a situation like this requires action and a few words.

In these situations, nothing you logical say will let you get out of it. I've been there.

What I remember doing was just kissing her to shut her up. Then I mumbled something like, "You're simply... beautiful.." (add a pause in between). I never got asked that question again.

You screwed up when you rated the girls on TV 7-9's, other women are NEVER more than 5-6's I don't care if they look like the absolute perfect computer generated woman with robo boobs and a bionic a$$, they are 5's and 6's damnit!

Of course, I understand that, but you don't want to equate her worth to you based on her looks. Basically word it so that she knows you think she is super attractive physically, but that you are even more attracted to her mentally.

I'm not sure you can rate them at all. Chances are the girlfriend asked because she thought the girls on TV were hot. If you rate them pretty low, said girlfriend starts thinking you had a weird taste in girls --> starts questioning herself again. Of course, that's absurd, but it was true in my case.

Oh dear god. Just refuse to play the stupid games and they'll end.

Rate her a 3. When she looks at you like you're crazy, ask her if she really thinks you think of her as a 3. Say that if she doesn't know what you think of her by now, then maybe she should re-think about getting married. You asked her to marry you, you want to spend the rest of your life with her, you love her more than anything in the world, and she is asking you if you're happy with her?

Or, if you don't mind playing the games and she's doing it for fun, rate her a 1. "You'll always be #1 to me baby." Of course you do this just to be funny.

No joke, I actually used to pick up girls that way. I think by joking around with them about their looks and other things, they realized that it couldn't possibly be true, and actively questioned how I truly felt. Of course, I don't recommend this approach.

 

[Compton]

Tell her that a 10 wouldn't cry.

Ha same. Sometimes when she's across the room, I'll pretend to be pulled over to her by her gravitational pull. "Oh god... so fat... can't... resist... gravity..." Then I'll give her a hug (which she loves) and we'll laugh.

Of course it helps that she isn't fat at all.

This is a good option too actually.

Basically, OP, you need to clarify what she means to you to her. You can either do it romantically and let her ask those types of questions or you can tell her straight up that she should already know what she means to you. (you two are getting married) I don't know any guy personally that jumps into marriage very easily.
