My take is what what she said is more blackfootian because she clearly doesn't think her H is out of her league. Ergo, author > her H. The other way seems almost placating...she's out of the author's league but not her H's.
LOL. I gotta tell you guy's that I honestly didn't think about it either way. I wasn't trying to achieve anything with what I said. Anyway, it occurs to me that my H is really just caught in his own trap. He doesn't want to link sex and love so when he didn't want to have sex with me, he thought the fact that I was moderately overweight was a good "reason". Now that I am less HD in the relationship, he is taking it as an ego-blow because he knows that my big objective turn-on would be intelligence in a man. This is totally irrational, however, because clearly his intelligence doesn't vary like my weight and if he was smart enough for me to find f*ckable 20 years ago, the same is still true today. Actually, now that I think about it, the fact that intelligence in a man is my objective turn-on is probably why I am so consistently HD. Any guy who could make me LD in that objective way makes me that way within the first two minutes of conversation.
