Pretty people have it easier, that's just the way we think it is. Research can actually back up this claim. In 2021, scientists found that we perceive attractive individuals as having better morals than unattractive people. Other researchers discovered that we think attractive people are more trustworthy. Author of Beauty Pays: Why Attractive People Are More Successful economist Daniel S. Hamermesh even claimed that good-looking people get higher wages and better loan deals at the bank.

But what about those who stand next to them? The people who endure the disapproving looks, snickering, and demeaning comments? The partners of attractive individuals don't have it easy, and one netizen wanted to know what they had to say. So they asked, "Those who are dating very attractive people, what is it like?"

People With 10/10 Partners Are Sharing What It's Like To Date Them Years ago, I brought my girlfriend (now wife) to Texas to meet my mom for the first time. Everything went normally.

The first time my mom and I were alone, she turned to me and said, “You must be really good in bed.”.

People With 10/10 Partners Are Sharing What It's Like To Date Them My wife is very pretty, and a few years younger than me. We were at a club pre covid and I whispered a bad joke in her ear, she rolled her eyes and walked away. Some other dudes saw it and thought I just got rejected, took pity on me and bought me some drinks while we talked about radiohead and D&D.

People With 10/10 Partners Are Sharing What It's Like To Date Them My favourite memory was being at a bar with my partner but also with some friends. So we're all just hanging out. Not clear with who is with who.

This bloke sees my partner and is legit stunned by her. She isn't aware, but as he's watching. She comes up to me and gives me a kiss/cuddle.

He was half impressed, half bummed. Gave me an approving nod and moved on.

It's nice when they're respectful that way.

People With 10/10 Partners Are Sharing What It's Like To Date Them We’re a queer couple, which I think contributes to people assuming we CANNOT be together. I must be her weird friend she’s dragged out with her. And even when girls KNOW I’m her partner, they’ll hit on her, in front of me, side-eyeing me like I’m a symbol of her low self-esteem. We get offered a lot of three ways and group sex where the subtext is obviously “I want to sleep with her, and you can also be there.”

Fortunately she is obsessed with me which makes it easy not to get jealous. We’re best friends. I’m obsessed with her and while her looks are a big perk, the real reason is we just get each other. We’ll go to parties and spend the whole time giggling with each other in a corner.

People With 10/10 Partners Are Sharing What It's Like To Date Them It’s annoying. I know my husband is hot, and he gets more attractive with age. I’ve had two kids and been through some rough stuff mentally which has aged me. Kinda sucks. One night we were out at a bar and some drunk girl tries to flirt with him while I was in the bathroom. I walk up to him since he was holding my drink. She looked me up and down and goes “wait…he’s with YOU?!”. I’m not a violent person. I almost punched her in the throat.

He's in a profession where he deals with lots of women all day long, and I see the longing in their eyes because he is not only gorgeous, but brilliant and funny. He thinks I'm more attractive than him. I'm not.

People With 10/10 Partners Are Sharing What It's Like To Date Them My significant other is WAY more attractive than me. Other girls fawn over him. It doesn’t bother me, because I know where his heart lies. We were out on a date one night, every time I walked away to go to the restroom or get a drink I would come back to some skinny little thot in my seat. He would be polite, but never flirtatious. Then calmly tell them to move so his girl could sit back down.

On a different night I had a bartender tell me I didn’t have a shot with the “grey eyed guy”. I was already living with the “ grey eyed guy”.

I get the motive... but me personally, I don't think we should try to butt into other people's business if we don't know the full story. Like if he was approaching her or something, then you can step in, if she looks intimidated or if she needs help but otherwise? I don't think you should try to "save" people who look ok. But as aforementioned, I do get why she might've decided to take this course of action.

People With 10/10 Partners Are Sharing What It's Like To Date Them I was in a long term relationship with a woman who looked like a super model. 6 foot tall, skinny, heart shaped face etc. She was the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen. Not exaggerating in the slightest. I was in shock the first time we made out. I just stared at her for hours and kissed her like I was in a daze.

I soon figure out that when your with a woman like this literally every dude will hit on her constantly. When she was 9 months pregnant dudes were slipping her phone numbers. It was so insane.

She definitely had a personality flaw. She thought she was better than everybody else, but was really good at being pretend nice to people.

To make a long story short she completely destroyed me. Cheated on me 3 weeks before the wedding and was ‘appalled’ that I called it off. ln her words ‘no one breaks up with me, I break up with them’. She to this day thinks that I was the s****y person for calling it off. F**k, she was so impossible.

People With 10/10 Partners Are Sharing What It's Like To Date Them I spend a lot of time wondering when he’ll realize he’s out of my league and leave me.

I mean, it’s nice when he meets friends of mine and they rave about him afterwards. Like, yes. I know he’s a snack.

He’s also the sweetest man in the world. So he’s the entire package and I consider myself extremely blessed to be the one to see him naked.

People With 10/10 Partners Are Sharing What It's Like To Date Them I am 6/10 on my best day and my wife wakes up at 8/10 and goes up from there. And that's at age 40. Especially when we first started dating, when she was the cute college girl, she couldn't get under 9/10 even if she tried. And here she was schlepping around with me.

It feels f*****g weird, dude. But she has reassured me enough, and I've seen her politely turn away a half dozen guys over the years, so I accept it these days. It was a hazard for a while sending her to pick up our pre-orders from GameStop because she'd get to talking with the guy behind the counter about her favorite games, then end up with him knocking on the car window to ask her out. She let him down easy and I don't get upset. I get it.

I just have to accept it as one of those things I can recognize as true without really understanding. It's like gravity I guess.

People With 10/10 Partners Are Sharing What It's Like To Date Them I’ve only dated two women who most men would consider “10/10”. This happened before I got married, before everyone who is young started calling me “sir” to get my attention.

Both girls acted like they knew the whole room was staring at them, one of them in particular changed her whole vibe whenever we would go somewhere and go inside, like she would act like the cameras were rolling, and often times, I could tell she wasn’t even listening to what I had said, like she was trying to capture how many people were looking at her without being obvious (and pretending to be looking at me, except she was looking *through* me).

People With 10/10 Partners Are Sharing What It's Like To Date Them At first, took quite a long time to gain her full trust. More than once she have been being lied to or manipulated to try to get in her pants. And it is also hard for me sometimes. She is getting hit on regularly even if I'm there. I fully trust her, but on some days when I don't feel good due to work stress or fatigue or when our relationship is a bit down (like everything it has its up and downs), it adds a bit of stress, I have to relax and say to myself deep down that she loves me. As far as sex, yeah she is really cute and sexy, but sex is more than that when you love someone, does not change anything for me.

People With 10/10 Partners Are Sharing What It's Like To Date Them Not currently, but have in the past. I mean, it’s cool? You gotta get used to a sh**ton of people glancing/staring at them anytime you go out. Also gotta get used to guys trying to hit on them the second you walk away. I never had an issue with either, so it worked for me. The underrated upside is that s**t is self-perpetuating: you immediately become more desirable if you’re with someone who (in this case) other girls realize is beautiful.

That isn't always an upside imo. If women see that your partner is someone very attractive, yes it may make them question why she's with you, but it also may attract the wrong type of woman. Many women who are used to get attention from others frequently, due to their looks, sometimes take this to their advantage, to manipulate and get their way. Those types assume she's with you for money or something superficial and when they find out you may or may not have one or either, they're done giving you any type of attention. I wouldn't want that, personally.

People With 10/10 Partners Are Sharing What It's Like To Date Them I once dated a guy "out of my league" and the reality is that I was very insecure and felt uncomfortable when we went out to places where there were many pretty girls because I felt that I wasn't enough for him and that he'd look at another girl who was really pretty. In the end that did happen, but my insecurity didn't make me enjoy the relationship. Thank God I am working on that in therapy.

My husband is the first attractive person I've been with, as that's never been a priority for me. I just got lucky with him being perfect in every way. But god its awesome, truly. I can't keep my hands off of him, even 6 years into our relationship.. he's so gorgeous, it amazes me constantly.

"the first attractive person I've been with"? Personally I think there's a world of difference between good looking and attractive. Attraction is a feeling and someone can be highly attractive without being good looking. Or good looking but not attractive. If she's not been attracted to her boyfriends I think she got something wrong.

My SO gets called Thor /Chris Hemsworth by kids while walking down the street and in our friend circles. The only weird encounter we had was at a bar. This intoxicated older woman was visibly incredulous that we were together and kept trying to hit on him.
