Woman Overhears Her Husband Admitting That She Is Ugly To His Friends

In this world, appearance is extremely important.

Even if we all agree that you should not judge a book by its cover. Ultimately, we can’t deny that we do exactly that when we meet someone. Being conventionally attractive in this world is a huge advantage for many people, and they do receive preferential treatment as a result. However, only when we remove what is considered conventionally attractive do we get to see the world as it truly is. While we may not all be attractive, everyone has characteristics that set them apart, which can be positive or negative.

This may not seem true, but a good personality can compensate for a lot. Even if you are considered ugly by society’s standards, if you are genuinely nice to others, you will find a partner who appreciates it. After all, beauty fades with time, so it’s not as important as many people believe. Although I understand how being labelled as ugly can devastate a person’s self-esteem. This is especially heartbreaking if you hear it from your partner.

Right from the start, we can tell that she has a lot of insecurities when it comes to her appearance.

And apparently, everyone around her hasn’t helped either except her husband.

But that all went crumbling to the ground when her husband defended her.

While she knew that he was defending her, she couldn’t help but be insulted.

It was clearly heartbreaking for her.

So she decided to ask Reddit what to do.

And unsurprisingly, she got a lot of support from people around the world.

When she confronted him, he was quick to condemn his friend’s actions.

But she was more hurt by what he had said rather than by his friends.

She was hurt and he could see it now.

That is when he tried to explain his perspective and how he had said it in the heat of the moment.

He even surprised her with a vacation.

At the end of the day, they communicated their feelings and worked things out.

And while it may take longer for her to build her self-esteem, this is a step in the right direction.

While I cannot speak for her husband’s intentions, I believe he was merely attempting to defend her. And what he might have meant was that he doesn’t think she’s ugly, even if others do. He may have even used air quotes around the word, which she never saw. So it’s sweet that he’s doing his best to make amends to her and that she’s actually paying attention to what he’s saying. At the end of the day, getting over insecurities is difficult, and I hope she soon sees herself in a different light.

People were also appalled by the friend’s behaviour.

It really was in the heat of the moment and it was clear he regretted the choice of words.

I am glad they worked things out because their relationship sounds very healthy.
