The girl who I was with for three years was a blonde, size 8,blue eyes, she was a 32b but went to a 32d with her boob job. Since being around 2 imparticular people at uni shae has questioned her weight no end, she used to go swiming 4 mornings a week and the gym 5 nights, no matter how mant times I told her just how sexy she was (and she really was) she would always come back with the same issue. She is known for being very stressy about simple things in life, dont get me wrong, she has everything going for her, she worries alot and would never accept that her figure was just perfect.

Her smaller breasts did not bother me at all, on the caotrary i found them sexy! She had a boob job and sure, they are more useful now in sex but she still worries about them being to big, rippling etc..

It seemed no matter which way I turned I was faced with negativity about her body, would this be why she had a low sex drive?

I worried about her lots as she should not have been concerned about her body the way she was, - I believe it was psychological..

I guess what my question is has anyone experienced this, is it normal? I know women do worry but this was beyond a joke, - to the point I would start to question myself.

Anyways, thanks for any words of wisdom here.....

LiLKiss agony auntwell you are right girls do have issues but she has more then avrage girl. so what i can say is that you already told her how perfect she is and you didnt mention anything that you would change about her so she needs help. some kind of help. because if she is like that since you met her think about it. some girls have picture of perfection that they want to achive in their mind and no matter what you tell them nothing will change. so i donno im advising you to talk to ]her and suggest some theraphy. just tell her that you dont like to see her worring and thinking that she isnt perfect.. I also seen on tv these girls and women getting plastic surgeries and they look goood but in their mind they see different. they want smaller stomach they want bigger boobs and etc. of things and that is illness.

It almost sounds like she might be suffering from Body Dysmorphic Disorder. My sister has a milder verison of it that came with an eating disorder and OCD. You can google this disorder, they have great sites on it. Best of luck to the both of you.
