I personally don't have stretch marks however I do have scars from having some *possible* precancerous moles removed. One thing Matt has told me is he likes seeing my scars because it reminds him that I'm a still a person and not perfect.
Although I don't particularly care for stretch marks I don't judge people by them. Everyone has imperfections, it's just part of the journey in life. I like that with such things on a person's body it tells a story of where they've been etc. I think you're being very honest by admitting that you don't like them, a lot of people would say that's just being vain. There are definitely things I don't care for on myself, I think it's great you're looking for more opinions to redefine your own personal opinion and work past this issue to see the beautiful you that is already there.
Have you looked into the various lotions they have that work to lessen the appearance of stretch marks? Like the others, being with someone you can't trust to see you in the light is going to be hard on your relationship and any future ones. I've found that accepting what you've got and working it is the best answer. I'm not a size 0, I never will be. That's fine, I'm with a man who loves me for how I am. Stretch marks? I don't have them now however I bet someday in the next couple years I'll have them after I have kids and I'll understand more of what people with them go there. No worries!
