Hi I am currently in a relationship with someone I love. My friends say she is gross and ugly. A "hotter" girl likes me but I don't like her. Should I dump my current gf and go for the other one?

dmartin89 agony auntDump your girlfriend.

She deserves better than to be talked about like this behind her back. But don't go crying back to her when the "hot" girl decides she's had enough of you.

Moonknight agony auntYeah do it, the choices you make today creates the man you are tomorrow, you will learn from it regardless of what you do.

Of course asking a question like this clearly says you don't actually love her and infact you have no idea what love is, that's fine so since you think you are inlove do it, see if the grass is greener on the other side.

You will regret it though if the grass isn't greener on the other side, and this hotter girl feels like a fucking a bucket, then your gross ugly ex girlfriend hits it off with some other guy who pounds her daily leaving her spazzing out from explosive orgasms.

Let me just say this.... what if your "friend" secretly likes your girlfriend but just wants you two to break up so he can go out with her?

When i got with my boyfriend a few of my friends said that he was dumb and ugly. I told them that it was just their opinion and that i wasnt bothered what they thought. I love him.

My friends really like him now and they apologised for what they said and they are glad i am happy.

You cant control what your friends think, you shouldnt care what they think. Her friends might think the same about you ? You cant love you gf if you are considering this. if you leave and regret it, she wont take you back x

Tisha-1 agony auntThere comes a moment in every person's life when he realizes he should stop letting other people run his life. This is part of growing up. Are you mature enough yet, to make your own decisions, or are you still guided by a committee of friends?

This is one of those moments.

Is this for real?

Yes leave your girlfriend for her own sake. She doesn't deserve to have such comments made about her by your so-called friends. Attacks on personal appearance are spiteful and childish.

I don't know how much you really love her; if you are seriously considering this dilemma then I would suggest not very much. Leave your gf so she can find someone who respects her and she is no longer the victim of your friends' insults. Then you can do whatever you want.

A male reader, sadandconfused1117 United States +, writes (15 October 2010):

Man you really need to think a little more about your feelings and hers instead of what your so called friends say. First of all if they were true friends they would never tell you something like that unless the person you were with was effecting you in a bad way.Second is that some of the hottest women I have met have turned out to be the ugliest people around due to there attitude and some of the most unattractive looking women I know turn out to be the most beautiful people you ever met. If you are willing to give up what you have with this girl who you say you love for someone who is "hotter" but you dont like you are about to make a big mistake and you really dont love her.I hope you take the time to think with your mind and heart instead of thinking with your friends minds and your little head. If you are actually thinking of doing this just keep in mind that you will probably not work out with the hotter one and more than likely break your girlfriends heart. Think real hard before you make your decision because real love is hard to find and if you leave your girlfriend and go out with this other girl then decide to get back with your girlfriend things will never be the same. She may forgive you and take you back but she will never be able to forget what you have done to hurt her. Iknow this may not be the best advise you get but I hope it helps you out. Good luck and remember that in the long run it is better to be happy emotionally rather than physically.

A female reader, Maria-consuela Canada +, writes (15 October 2010):

Maria-consuela agony auntHaha. In a totally superficial and aesthetics-driven world would we all keep dumping each other until we ended up with only perfectly symmetrical human specimens breeding to create a uniformed race.

Oh wait, that idea is taken.

Don't dump someone because of what your friends think, or what they look like, or even if someone else is appealing at that moment. Dump them because obviously your not in a mode where being monogamous is practical. Try being single for awhile - and get some new friends. These ones don't have your best interests at heart. They want you to dump someone you care about because she doesn't fit their standards. If you knew one of them really loved their significant other would you ever feel comfortable telling them to break up with them for any reason? Probably not.

Hopefully you make the choice that is best for you.

You should stop to think about wether you really love her or not, if you'd put physical appearance before someone you care about then, no offense, but you probably don't deserve them. You're blessed to have someone who loves you, there's alot of people with broken hearts out there who wish they had the ones they love alongside them, judging by the way things are looking I might be one of them pretty soon if I'm not lucky, so just be grateful that you have her and try not to mess it up or you'll regret it...

A female reader, followtheblackrabbit Cayman Islands +, writes (15 October 2010):

followtheblackrabbit agony auntYou can't love her all that much if you want to break up with her because your friends are pushing you to. If I love someone, it would take a thousand SWAT teams to wring me away and NOT without a fight. You don't even like the other girl-why force yourself into something you don't want? Be independent and don't follow what others say. Otherwise, you're no better than a puppet. I'm sorry but if you can let people control you like that, you're not ready for love. To love, you have to love yourself which means you're confident in who you are and don't need to rely on the opinions of others. Learn to trust yourself. Learn what's truly important to you.

The Realist agony auntI think that the hotter girl won't make you happy and you can't be sure that she will say yes. Are they good friends of yours, people you can trust. I say this because in the past my friends hated one of my gf's and would make a comment like that when really they meant that she was no good for me and in the end they were right and were watching my back all along. I say break up with her but don't rush into a new relationship right away. Check out all of your options before going with one girl so soon.

A male reader, Cerberus_Raphael Sweden +, writes (15 October 2010):

Cerberus_Raphael agony auntApparently your girlfriend is not the gross and ugly one, it is her boyfriend, who allows the insidious words of his 'friends' to even touch your relationship with a girl you claim to love. If that were true, you would not even be considering this. No, what you have with your current girlfriend is not love but know that what you will have with this 'hotter' girl will be much less. You even said it yourself, you do not like her, so why would even consider it?

Leave your girlfriend and admit to her, why you did it. Admit to her that you 'friends' who were supposed to be supportive of your relationship, decided to rip it in half and push you towards this 'hotter' girl which you are about to do, all too willingly.

I hope that helps.

What do you think the majority of the replies are going to be? Of course you don't dump the girl you love. This other girl may be conventionally "hotter", but what's "hotness" going to stand for if she has a rubbish personality and is boring. Hotness is exciting for a few weeks. But what you have already is worth so much more. Who cares what your friends say about her. You should be defending her to them if you really love her. Please. Give her some respect and stand up for her.
