Who is better looking? You or your SO

Would that be you in a sexy nurse outfit?

Well, we’re probably about even, but he looks good with less effort than I do. :wink:

I’ve had strangers as well as casual acquaintances tell me that my wife is the prettiest woman they’ve ever seen. (She’s a gorgeous, trim, Korean knock-out with a great smile who looks 15 years younger than she is).

No one has ever pulled her aside to make a similar claim about me.

Oh yeah!!! My sexy nurse outfit = White pants, white shoes, forest-green polo shirt, and hospital badge. YOWZA!!! Work it…work it goooood:cool:

Me: stick-like arms and legs; bad posture; slightly bulbous beer gut; fish-white skin; acne-scarred complexion; receding hairline; commonly mistaken for Nosferatu.

Her: petite; dancer’s body; luminous skin; 50,000-watt smile; thick, onyx-black hair; still gets carded to buy alcohol (we’re both 34).

I’ll call it a draw.

(I was kidding a little about myself. But, honestly, my wife is like 1000 times better looking than me. Don’t tell her, though. She thinks I’m cute.)

We’re different types in the looks department:

We’re on either end of the line-up; the spousal unit is on the left.

My SO says I am “out of his league.”

I’ve never dated a guy “in my league,” though.

I like to be the pretty one.

:wink:

I think my husband is a lot more attractive than I am, by conventional standards. I can pass as cute–hell, there are days I feel like a goddess-- but conventionally, in terms of what mainstream considers attractive, I’m not it. I give myself a 6, maybe a 7 on a good day.

My husband comes from a family of incredibly good looking, classically beautiful Italians. Every single person in his family, on his Dad’s side, is blessed with these gorgeous dark Mediterranean features, olive skin and curly dark hair. He is an incredibly good looking person. But he’s a very mild-mannered, gentle sort of guy that isn’t immediately noticed as attractive. He wears spectacles and gives off the ‘‘nerd’’ vibe. He also loses points for being short, but it’s probably for the best because if he didn’t, I’d be beating women off of him with a stick. They would also die with jealousy if they knew what a great body he had underneath all his dorky clothes.

I’m not even really sure how I ended up with someone this attractive, to be honest. Here is a photograph of me on a good day, and him on an average day–this is quite possibly the best photograph taken of me, but he consistently turns out photos for himself of equal or higher quality. Formal ‘‘us at our best’’ pic here. I really don’t think there’s any contest. He is art.

My wife is better looking than me. She looks about 10 years younger than she is, has great posture and a trim body from doing Flamenco, is cute as hell, and has a great smile. I’m decent looking, I’m not going to pretend modesty by saying that I’m ugly, but she’s a couple of levels above me. One of my friends has said, “Dude, you have a hot wife,” and another grumbled something about marrying out of my league, so it’s not just my biased perceptions either.

Hey, I usually like dark-haired guys, but Noone Special is a redhead too and he isn’t half-bad-looking at all :smiley:

(no, he isn’t my SO!)

I never thought I was particular great-looking. I figured I was pretty much average, and I never bothered with cosmetics or fashion or any of that to enhance whatever might have been worth enhancing. I’ve had a couple of boyfriends who I thought were quite attractive - especially that 6’3" blonde, blue-eyed charmer who loved to take me dancing about 30-some years ago… ahem!

My husband had the most amazing blue eyes, and the most expressive face whereas I think I look like my grandmother, minus some of the wrinkles and all of the grey hair. (I’m not bald - I just don’t have any grey yet.) I don’t know about better looking, but I think he’s probably younger looking, which makes sense, since he is younger.

Honestly, in the grand scheme of things, I never really cared a lot about looks. As long as a man had basic good hygiene and good manners, that counted as a good start. If he was smart and clever, that pretty much sealed the deal. Dunno what the men of my past would say about me, though.

Pretty much all of mine have been better looking than me.

While my current SO (my wife) is also better looking than me, she’s unique in that she’s also made me better looking than I used to be.

Like Kalhoun said, we’re different.

Sorry for the duplicate.

She would say I’m better looking.

Which means she’s gorgeous, crazy, and wrong.

Judge for yourself. I’m the pregnant blond one, he’s the tall black haired one. (The picture is us waiting for the marriage ceremony in the courthouse)

It’s hard to say who’s better looking. For a more objective estimate, I can judge his exes and their new boyfriends, and compare them to my exes and their girfriends.

I’d say we are matched.
