1.Does anyone have any stretch marks on their stomach??? Sure do
2.If u do,do u have alot?? Yep
3.What ALL do u use on them??? I use nothing. I can't mark stretch marks disappear. They do fade over time. However, Cocoa Butter Lotion can help prevent new ones esp, in pregnancy.
7.What All does your partner say about them?? My partner says nothing. He has stretch marks too, only b/c he's so tall however...
8.Has he refused to do stuff with u like have sex with u when he has
seen them?? Anyone who would refuse to have sex with you because of a few stretch marks doesn't deserve your sex to begin with. Perfectly skinny people can have stretch marks...

I started getting stretch marks when the affects of PCOS really started to hit me hard. I'm your calssic PCOS case, most of my weight is in my midsection. I've been working really hard to lose weight, but I know that I will never have a tight stomach again without surgery and frankly, i'm not really about it... My husband is tall, built and handsome. He loves every little thing about me, even my chub, but he's super supportive of me.. Any man (or woman) who would refuse to be intimate with someone because of a physical flaw doesn't deserve a second look. You need to be comfortable in your own skin. Trust me, I'm not happy about the way that I look, but I know that DH loves me for me... no matter what.
