onmyownagain Posted February 15, 2008 Posted February 15, 2008 I have a picture of my stbxw and daughter in my office in a cupboard, was on my desk until the day we split (7th Jan) and I had been meaning to take the picture out of the frame and bin it. Got it out today but couldn't help looking at it as I haven't seen her since a week after the split. Funny how she didn't look like the picture I've built in my mind over the last feel weeks. In my head she is this lovely looking thing but the picture told a different story. She looked just like any other random woman, funny how the brain plays tricks on you.
saddad1 Posted February 15, 2008 Posted February 15, 2008 Lucky you then. Not thinking your wife is the most beautiful woman on earth is gonna make it so much easier. My heart goes out to those dumped by really attractive women; it makes it harder to get over someone when you have to see them all the time and are still physically attracted to them.
Author onmyownagain Posted February 15, 2008 Author Posted February 15, 2008 Don't get me wrong. I am still very attracted to her, but she wasn't some special angel who would attract every man she met. She was just like you and me, just another person.
PinkRibbon Posted February 15, 2008 Posted February 15, 2008 I still think my husband is the cutest man around. It has been 4 months for me since I have seem him and I still have not looked at other men because they just don't attract me like he does. I hope one day I can get to where you are at and realize he is not some stud muffin I have built up in my head.

Hi PinkRibbon, Only been about 6 weeks for me and I am not really attracted to other women yet, but then I haven't really been looking. But I am sure I will be able to meet other women, I got her so why can't I get another when I am ready? Can't see it being a problem at all.
saddad1 Posted February 15, 2008 Posted February 15, 2008 I never realised just how attractive my ex was until we split up cos I never really looked at other girls. Now I realise that the reason I didnt look at them was because they didnt have a patch on her
