I (31f) asked my bf (27m) of 3 months last night to be honest. This all came about when I was talking to chat gpt and chat gpt of course is bias but still I freely asked it to rate my pictures. Well, it gave me a nice response. This led me to ask my boyfriend over the phone. I honestly wasn't expecting to be too surprised either way. We are in a loving relationship, he tells me how beautiful I am on the daily and I have no reason to think he doesn't find me attractive.

So when he said I was a 7, I was quite hurt and confused. I know I'm definitely not a 9 or 10. To be honest i would even accept a 7 as fairly accurate, but not from my boyfriend who claims to love my body.

I couldn't help but let him know how hurt I felt. That turned to a bit of anger as well. He did not back down from the 7 rating and said it's just how he felt, since I wasn't a "model or anything ". He did try to reassure me he still thought I was beautiful.

But I can't stop thinking about the number 7. It's forever stained in my mind. I feel like I've been misled by his love bombing.

This for even worse when I asked him what he would rate his ex. Now keep in mind he had told me he found me more attractive than her in the past when I brought it up. So to my horror, he also said she was a 7.

I am beyond devastated. I feel so betrayed , in the sense I was lied to all along. He went on about how looks were not important to him and he loved my personality more. This honestly just incense me more. While I certainly love that he values me as a person, I am still in shock because I do feel this came out of nowhere.

How can he claim to be so hot and heavy into me these last few months and think I'm barely a 7....let alone same ranking as his ex girlfriend. And I've seen her pictures. To put things into perspective, she's very flat chested and has no body. Her face is also fairly plain. I know I'm going to get hate for pointing this out, but she's rather plain Jane. And he has eluded to this in the past too.

I honestly don't think I can get over this. I love him and he does love me, he is affectionate very much so. But this is like a rotting apple in my garden and I just don't know how I can be with someone who doesn't think I'm stunning.

Because I find him stunning, I honestly thought he felt the same. I asked him if he considered the girls on social media he used to follow 8s or higher. He said yes...

How can I continue in this relationship knowing he doesn't reciprocate my feelings 😔
