Am I the only girl who believes this?

Am I the only girl that believes a boyfriend should NEVER tell his girlfriend that her worst enemy is better than her in ANY way?

Probably a childish question, but I'm curious...

    Is this a serious question? :laugh:
  • Depends.

    I think it'd be a compliment if he said she was better at being worse than you!

    Well....what did he say that was so horrible? I dislike a lot of women and my husband (of 32 years) will say "she is X" when he clearly knows I am not "X". I am an old woman though so I guess it doesn't bother me, because he is right, she is better at some things--a lot of things-- than I am. But doesn't mean he doesn't love me.

    I think telling my wife my ex was better in bed makes her try harder...

    Bah...people and their petty weirdness. If he says any of the following, then consider leaving:

    -"I only hit you because you're pretty when you cry."
    -"I caught herpes from a hooker while I was away on business."
    -"Your face is so pretty...it would look so much better stretched over mine."
    -"It puts the lotion on the skin!"

    If none of the aforementioned (or something similar) have been uttered, you'll be just fine.

    it would have to be the perfect scenario like telling you that shes better at getting guys because they know they can get in her pant on the first date and they know that your better then that or something like that

    Edit: I forgot, we have to be supportive. You're right OP. Completely right
  • Is this one of those things where he said, "My ex used to make a mean lasagna" or "My ex was a beast in the gym she could run sub 5 min/miles"....and you're looking at it as "I can't boil water and I get tired walking to the corner store....so that must mean he thinks she's better than me?" It's a pretty tough relationship to be in where you aren't allowed to speak your mind. Even if he did compare you two, was it in a contect to control you or knock you down? Either way, if you don't like him comparing...or even bringing her (or other women) up you can kindly tell him so. It doesn't have to be a knock down, drag'em out brawl between you too.

    It's a given that anyone who's dated anyone...doesn't compare to an ex in some area. I do believe that it's something that needs to be spoken of with some finesse. However, most men aren't known for their finesse. They blindly, ignorantly and without bad intent...often just make statements without thinking of the outcome. Unfortanately, women will take the smallest thing and run with it. Instead of one best buddy with some common sense, chiming in...they all get worked up and start to man bash. What does it resolve?

    Yes, it is. I'd leave to go and date a grown-up.

    Unless he wants a mad girlfriend or asking for a break-up, then that's probably the stupidest thing to say!

    Actually, this is what i meant to say. I just posted the reader's digest version. Maybe CliffsNotes would be a more relevant reference.
  • Ok, well some of you jumped to conclusions - who says this is something that's happening to me or not happening to me? It was just a question.
