How to stop feeling jealous of car models?

    I'm not jealous of pretty girls that are actresses and singers...or even porn stars. I've been with my man for 3 years and when he first saw me he used to say how gorgeous he thought I was and perfect to him. That I was the best ever. To be honest we had an instant extreme physical attraction at first sight.

    It seems like my looks don't matter as much to him anymore which is a good thing. But he is into cars...and goes to car events and I see men drooling over the car models.

    He's not the type to drool over women but more so cars. I know there's other girls he find pretty...like me he is very picky and we have the same taste. Jell, my ex kept folders of naked women and porn and I didn't care too much.

    I can't help but feel men want car models. That they'd be proud to have a car model as a gf because they are just sexy and be proud. I'm jealous of girls that have the fake boobs and heavy makeup and that men still drool over them. As I said with girls like Eva longoria, jessica alba, Megan good, I'm not jealous of idk why even though my man and I think they're pretty.

    There's some good looking guys out there but I prefer my man over them even with looks. There's just something about him physically even though he's not the most muscular but he's fit and handsome. Basically he's the apple of my eye and I can't help but wonder if he feels the same way for me.


    My other question, if you had a hot/beautiful wife or gf would she still trump other girls in your eyes? Not saying you don't find other women beautiful but that your partner is the best to u?

    Sorry for a shallow post. Lol, just feeling shallow and insecure at the moment.

    What do supermodels and Ferraris have in common?

    They are both fun to look at; but your chance of taking either for a test drive are non-existant.

    I'm lucky to have found one woman with shared interests and mutual attraction.

    I think your insecurities are completely justified.
    I really don't know how you can feel less jealous of them. It sounds like you're more jealous of their confidence than their looks. I do think that you should focus on getting the same air of confidence about yourself.

    genuinegirly, I think you may have a point there. I'm a little shy to expose the "sexy" side of myself because I do that in private to my man. I mean, I wouldn't go all out trashy to the public but I guess it'd be nice to show my sexy side and have that type of confidence. But even with Jessica Alba and Megan Good (girls like them) are seen as sexy and show their sexy part... I guess I hate that girls who have nothing to offer but sex gets all the attention. It seems like men would choose the super sexy hot mama girl over the sexy girl next door.

    I'm pretty fit and workout but I guess it's never good enough. I want rock solid abs and big thighs like Gracyanne Barbosa lol which takes a whole lot of dedication.

    I don't care if other men find me the prettiest. I just hope my man feels I'm up there with them and that I'm more special in his eyes. I guess I just need to hear it from him but it'd be stupid of me to ask for him to say that.

    That's the problem. I bolded it for you.
    What is good enough?
    Can you look in the mirror and smile at what you see every day?
    That's where confidence begins.

    Yes.


    Solution: squat, deep and heavy. Don't be afraid of big weights—they are your friends.

    Yes I do squat. Last year I was very consistent in my training but after a vacation on the beach I fell out and haven't been as dedicated since LOL

    GeneticShift Show me your everything is okay face.

    Yes. Every time. Physical attraction only counts for so much. If there was a panel of scientists that were able to use a set of standards to find what would be objectively the most beautiful man/woman in the world, the person I'm with would still win in a comparison every time. Because not only do I find them beautiful/stunning/gorgeous/handsome/whatever adjective, but I'm insanely attracted to the person inside them as well. I can see how attractive they are just by looking at them, but I also know how beautiful it is when their eyes crinkle when they laugh, the way one side of their mouth curls up when they've been caught off guard, all the little nuances that make them even more beautiful than some model I don't know.

    Plus, personality is sexy.

    I'm the same way. It's comforting to hear others, especially men, say the same. If I'm in love then no one else compares. I remember when I had a huge crush on this guy in HS and there was NO ONE else. Eh, I'm the same way now so things haven't changed. It's what I feel...

    I also agree personality is way more important. Looks are important but not nearly as important as personality. I see a guy with muscles he looks nice but damn, he is on instagram practically begging for likes or building his "rep" on there with tons of girls constantly liking it because he "markets" himself LITERALLY. Just for ego boost =P

    I remember this one handsome guy added me and asked if I could like and comment his facebook photos. HUGE HUGE turn off, he's not even that good-looking to me anymore.

    Men look at attractive women, some more openly than others. IMO it relates to the inherent biological urge to reproduce (that thought would make an interesting thread). In general, it doesn't mean most men are looking for an upgrade; yes, some men give into temptation, most do not.

    Chelle, you need to be comfortable with who you are, who your SO is, and your relationship. From your self description and the info in your profile, you sound like an attractive and fit young woman. Unless your SO can't keep it in his pants, you have nothing to fear from automobile show models and the like. A little jealousy is natural, too much jealousy can be a serious problem.

    I've always thought that it was BS to say that men are visual and women aren't. I think a lot more women than you think are visual and they even look at both sexes. Of course I think there's a lot more men that drool over someone more than women but I've seen some "perverted" women like my cousin lol. Anyways, I look at both sexes and notice everything.

    Anyways, I don't really care if someone thinks I'm more prettier than so and so. I just care what my partner thinks. I just wonder if he feels how I feel? I remember telling him one time that I don't even care for other guys and he's better to me and he said "I feel the same way" but he said that once which was like a year and half ago. I guess a part of me feeling kinda insecure is that when I dress up he seems to not notice my looks as much. He'll just say "You look nice" but he used to check me out and couldn't keep his hands off of me even though when we go out I get compliments it's liek he doesn't notice. I just wonder if he even still sees me the same way lol..

    As much as I love Benedict Cumberbatch, I'm probably never going to be within a foot of him (unless I somehow manage to go to TIFF and he's showing another movie...a girl can dream...). My husband knows all about my status as a Cumberbitch, and he thinks it's cute. Why? Because he knows I love him so much more--finding someone attractive on a superficial level means nothing compared to how much I love my husband. It's about depth.

    And yeah, a lot of what you're describing, chelle, is part of what happens when people get comfortable in a relationship. I had to train my husband to compliment me at certain times. He's gotten much better about it through the years.

    Not a dude, just FYI.


    Insecurity and the anxiety that goes along with it can be insidious and destructive demons. I speak from experience, and I know how easily these can consume your perception of yourself, your partner and your relationship. Everything that Chris Noyb says above is true. At the same time, however, honesty and open communication are just as critically important to any healthy relationship as the ability to trust your partner. If his behavior—or lack of communication with you about his feelings—is something you genuinely feel uncomfortable about, you need to talk about it with him before you let your imagination take hold of your insecurity and let it grow out of control.

    Several years ago once at work (! yes !) I had an open water tap and staring at a girl in blue jeans and white cotton top so fit... I spilled lot of water. She even noticed. But was cool about it.
    My wife keeps making fun of this even now.

    We are on same boat.
    But I kept asking things that are not heard.
    Now I have stopped saying things.
    In our case it is a mild but prolonged disappointment.
    In your case I think it is just he is too much used to you. IMHO you should put him in a very warm mood and openly express this - not like complaining - but expressing that you are MISSING that attention. Men hate complaining but love being wanted. At least as much as I know...

    nothing like two people madly caring each other.... Been there once!

    There are all kinds of beautiful women out there. Apparently you are one of them to your man. Fake boobs and makeup can catch your eye quickly, but they don't make for a good relationship, if that's all there is. You probably have something more important than just your looks, if he's stuck around that long.

    A good, honest man will always love his woman and she will always trump other beautiful women in the most important ways. Don't expect him not to look.
