6 Small Ways a Man Makes His Wife Feel Ugly Without Saying a Thing

You may believe your wife is the most stunning woman alive, but there are a few common things even the best men do that can leave the woman they love feeling unattractive.

Men, this article is not to shame you — it’s to help you steer clear of these things.

My husband makes me feel ugly when he:

1. Fails to compliment her efforts
You are the one person on earth whose opinion she values most.

Your wife needs to know you think she’s stunning both during the times she makes [an] extra effort (i.e., takes a shower rather than just using dry shampoo), and the days she’s sick in bed.

If you’re not noticing out loud how beautiful she is, she’s likely interpreting your silence as disapproval.

2. Praises another woman with words you’ve never used for your wife

If you are referring to a woman as drop-dead gorgeous, and you’ve never used such powerful descriptions to describe your wife, it’s devastating to her.

She knows you find other women attractive, and for the most part, she’s OK with that.

But when you emphatically compliment another woman, your wife feels like you are comparing her to that woman and she’s the one not measuring up.

Your comments may be innocent, but it’s a dagger in your wife’s heart.

3. Looks at pornography

Nothing will make your wife feel more despairingly inadequate than you looking at pornography.

A study by Fight the New Drug showed that after men were exposed to pornography, they rated themselves as less in love with their partner, and were more critical of their partner’s appearance, sexual performance and displays of affection.

There is never room for this in a marriage.

This is a neon sign to your wife telling her she is not good enough. As time goes by and you continue to look at pornography, you’ll come to believe that about her as well.

4. Doesn’t initiate hugs or kisses

Withholding physical affection except when you want to be intimate makes her feel used and undesirable.

Try kissing your wife on the forehead one evening and telling her you love her. If you do this just because you love her, with no expectation of having sex after, she’ll feel beautiful and adored.

5. Does a double-take when another woman walks by

We know you’re wired to notice and appreciate beauty, but please learn not to gawk.

Similar to the reasons explained in complimenting another woman, you cannot understand how deeply it hurts your wife to see you check out another woman. (And trust me: She notices, even when she doesn’t say anything.)

6. Peeks at his phone while I’m talking

Make eye contact with your wife when she is talking to you. It sounds simple, but it’s a common problem.

If you’re staring at your phone while she’s talking, she’ll start to wonder what’s wrong with her — even if you’re only checking ESPN for the halftime score.

Couples who have a conversation with a phone nearby reported less trust in their partner, and a lower quality relationship, according to a University of Essex study.

Help her feel beautiful by prioritizing her over your Facebook feed.

To be fair, feeling beautiful is complicated, and you alone can’t convince her that she is. Only your wife can develop her inner confidence, but you can do a great deal to damage or build her up in these subtle ways.

Whilst I'm not married, these same situations resound in pre-marital relationships, especially the porn part. I find myself watching less porn when my gf is in close proximity since the main action is there waiting to happen at any given time. Also, if as a guy you catch your woman watching porn, nobody should tell you before doing the needful.

7. Not taking care of your hygiene and letting yourself go.
This shows that you don't care about making sure she remains attracted to you .. this can be interpreted to mean you do not find her attractive enough to impress.

Marriage is more than we discuss here.

The 6 points makes an incomplete fulfillment but nevertheless, before the marriage we looked free willingly and he praised us and our beauty radiated. In the marriage, we are careful inside and sometimes outside and in the way we dress.

Some of us, leave ourselves to fatten up beyond the beauty. Despite having 2 - 5kids, the beauty becomes doubtful to the eyes of the guy. I do not want to inject the moda in law advises during the omurgo. To some it could be deceptive others are worth the advises. But claiming rights and allowing brothers, nephews and cousins or sisters in the house can be a room divider to newly married or embryonic family.

It all started in privacy.

Grew in love

Stronger in their own oval space

And shud be left in their own space to grow organically.

Then both clubs can live peacefully happy ever after

Another thread about me making women feel this positive or negative as so on and so on...

What about get some self esteem and find their own happiness regardless of the man in their lives.

A woman who is self confident is already radiating her beauty even if the man does not find her beautiful.

Things change and we all have to cope but to downright lie when you know your partner has let herself go or putting up rubbish make or clothes and pile on the pounds because not lack of discipline in terms of portion management and exercise. Dream on!

What if it is the other way round but the man is now expected to compliment packaging when the man can clearly see that the packaging is not working
