My boyfriend still thinks his ex is pretty!

Dear Advice Girl,

I started dating my boyfriend only a week after he split with his ex of two years.

I've asked him straight out who's prettier, and he always says, "You're both pretty in different ways." I want him to see me as the most beautiful, and I want him to forget her. Is that selfish?

Signed,

Dear Megan-Marie,

It's not selfish to want to be the most important girl in your boyfriend's life (you know, besides his mom and little sis). But pestering him about it - and forcing him to compare you to his ex - makes you seem insecure, distrustful and kinda like a nag.

Of course your guy thinks his ex is pretty. Shoot, he might even think she's cool and fun, too. (Why else would he date her?)

But forget about their relationship - what about yours? Does makes you happy, stay faithful and treat you like a good boyfriend should? Then relax and forget about the past already.

 

Love,
   The Advice Girl

Tbh If They Were Together For Two Years Then You Get With Him A Week After... He's Gonna Be On The Rebound. Either Way, Of Course He's Gonna Still Think She's Pretty, Hello He Went Out With Her For Many Reasons, That Just Being One Of Them. He Must Like You If He's Going Out With You Now, But Don't Just Expect Him To Forget About A Part Of His Life Like That..

No. I get how you feel but you have to remember he is dating you. But ask him would he rather be with you or her and that will tell you everything

A little jealous aren't you? IF you keep this up he will dump you. Imagine how beautiful he will think you are if you show him how mature you can be by not asking this stupid question. Obviously he doesn't want to be mean about her because of respect and you should respext him for that. Just leave it alone.
