My bf said I'm a "6 or 7 out of 10". That means he's basically settling for me right? fyi I didn't ask for a rating, I made an offhand negative comment about my looks and he came back with that like it was a compliment

how the fuck did that autist get a gf when I can't

What's wrong with that? It's still above average. Unless you're incredibly hot you aren't an 8+.

He was just being honest. If he said you were a 10/10 you'd have complained about him not being honest, he told the truth and you still complain. This is the kind of discussions you never want to have because of how petty you females can be

You make it sound like he just damned you to an eternity of ugliness. Learn to appreciate your looks and stop bothering your bfs about them. All you're doing is giving them the option to lie to you or tell the truth, the latter seemed to have upset you.

Do you ask out women. Ever.

Does he think he's 7? I call my girlfriend and I easy 7s without cleaning up.

Do you all honestly believe you're a 10/10, or are you telling me you want someone to blow smoke up your ass and tell you you are when you aren't?

>half of 10 is 5
>5 would be the average
>he perceives his girlfriend to be half way between average and the absolute, unreachable perfection
>pretty good rating, honestly
>she thinks she’s even higher than that and is insulted by his rating
Better cheat on him, it’s the only way, OP.

>unreachable perfection
What do you mean by this? Plenty of women are 10s. Granted they're a minority, but not such a small one as to be invisible.

10/10 is impossible...literall goddess standard

9/10 is subjective and temporal. I.e. an 8/10 doing makeup, fixing hair, wearing lingerie, having nipples pierced (if thats your thing)

8/10 is very attactive but "elevated" through effort...like if you were in peak of being in shape physically.

7/10 is attractive but not going above and beyond

6/10 is kinda homely (need to work on hygiene and grooming)

5/10 = "not my type", but could be a 6 or 7 for someone else.

4/10 = hit a couple of branches when falling down the ugly tree

3/10 = bad genetics or deformities

2/10 = feel physical revulsion

1/10 = abject disgust. Thoughts of...is this even human and/or this person dying would benifit humanity by removing the genes from the gene pool.

>What do you mean by this? Plenty of women are 10s.
You’re living in a fantasy. People are not perfect, regardless of their sex.

Outside of photoshooped images I have never seen a 10/10
And op stop fishing for fucking compliments from your bf and appreciate that he is honest with you. I fucking hate you insecure bitches. My ex was the same.

You’re all stupid. There are 10s out there. 10 doesn’t equal perfect. It just means the most beautiful. If there were no 10s then what’s the fucking point of having the system be out of 10? Then 9/10s are the most beautiful.

It's a weird way to compliment somebody. I would just say "oh stop, you look perfectly fine" or "I'll always find you beautiful", whatever. Just not some cold, objective-sounding rating scale, that's not only ridiculous, it's letting someone who is feeling insecure about their looks that you basically think they look pretty good, but there's people better looking than them. Even if that's true, there's no need to say it. It just doesn't help.

They are attractive, brother.

I personally have never seen someone I'd call a 10. The whole fucking rating is bullshit anyways. If I date someone they don't need to look perfect and I always told my gfs to drop that shit when they brought it up. Im top old for that.

it's like video game scores, 9 is okay, 8 is usable, 7 is on the precipice

>I personally have never seen someone I'd call a 10
if no one ever reaches 10/10 for you, you’ve forced the 9/10 rating to become the de facto top rating. It’s literally the same thing but you pretend there’s some mystical nonexistent “10”

>10 doesn’t equal perfect.
A 10 out of 10 is a perfect score. That's not to say that the perfect woman doesn't exist, but that would be tantamount to finding a mythical creature.

yes, I've even been on a few dates recently (mostly from tinder admittedly)
I'm pretty funny, smart and interesting, but I guess I must just not be physically attractive or give off some loser vibes

This is the difference between men and women

In OP's defense it's not exactly encouraging to say something that specific to someone's face. Personally if I had a gf and I considered her a 6 or 7 out of 10 I'd be thrilled about it, but I wouldn't fucking say that to her. Ratings like that are what people say in the absence of others to compare them. If you say it to someone it comes off like you're telling them they leave something to be desired (unless you tell them they're a 10, in which case you're either overpraising them and it comes off as insincere, or you're telling them something they obviously already know).
I can understand why OP would take that as him saying "I can do better", but it's also very possible he thought it would be more encouraging in this situation to give you an honest opinion than to be fawning.

The score he gave is his opinion only. No governing body sat in a room with your picture and a calibrated scale.

So, there is no agreement on a scale in which to judge anyone and there are no formal qualified judges to eliminate bias.

>not using an -/30 system

Well, he didn't call you ugly, however, I find it really tasteless for a guy to rate his gf like the frat-wannabes on here do.

Men aren't the most sensible creatures, really. He probably tought it was a reassuring thing to say, kind of "it's fine, you are pretty attractive to me". Kick him or keep him, it's up to you, but talk about it first, ask him what he ment exactly.
