I'm not a guy so take all this with a grain of salt.

But I, if I am speaking about the reactions of people outside of our relationship, am significantly better looking than my husband. I would find it an egregious lie to call myself a 10 or even a 9, but my husband think a I'm a 10. And I would have to be the queen of Obvlivious-Land not to notice the way other people perceive my looks differently than the looks of other women, including other fit women of my age who I myself find pretty. Men typically seem to find me very attractive even when I wear no makeup and wear pajamas and didn't brush my hair. I actually almost never wear makeup or dress up, because the attention is too much, and if going out unanswered in loose jeans and a baggy t-shirt gets me the level of attention it does, I certainly have little desire to amp up the attention yet more.

My husband has had people straight up say to his face that they'll trade whatever they are selling for his "lovely woman" (obviously a joke, but not one in good taste), ask him why I'm with him, and assume his dick and bank accounts must be huge to have gotten with me.

You know how he handles it? He laughs. Merely having me on his arm apparently makes people assume he's rich with a huge cock. Awesome! Haha.

And he knows there's nobody better for me. Are there "hotter" guys? Yeah. Could I have them? Sure. But why would I? There are beautiful people all over the place. They're common, like dandelions. They're all over. But many are insufferable and stupid. Many are insecure and angry. Many are all sorts of terrible things.

Whereas there are very few people I could even begin to tolerate living with, let alone loving living with them and being with them.

Also, I feel like I'm the one with someone out of my league. I'm not stupid, but in my opinion his mind is waaaay beyond mine. His bravery is bigger than mine. He has the best character of anyone I've ever met. And yes, he's very good in bed. And yes, I find him to be the most physically desirable man ever.

We've talked about these things. He's very secure. If anything, I'm the more insecure one, even though I'm pretty secure compared to the general population. I know I won't always be so pretty. My trust in him is what helps me feel soothed believing he won't up and leave even as I get older, since I trust him when he states the other features he adores about me. Whereas he knows he's not going to lose thw traits I find so attractive.

He feels amused and complimented when other guys even go so far as to hit on me right in front of him. And, if you want something actionable, he grabs me and kisses me right there and thanks them for mentioning how awesome I am. Nobody ever keeps trying after that.

But even if he's not around, he knows I myself don't take those guys seriously. They pale in comparison to him. And even if I were angry and dissatisfied about something, I have strong ethical convictions: my husband would be the one I went to about it. Not some other guy.

And if some dude is idiotic enough to try and actually fight him, he ans I both would report them as being violent or harassing us.
