Meeting OM's W/GF/F for the first time

So what have others' experiences been like meeting the OM's wife, girlfriend, or fiancee' for the first time? Last night I met his fiancee' for the first time. I was fully prepared, and had pretty much gotten myself all worked up to be upset. But (this sounds horrible) I was very relieved when she walked in and was not what I expected at all. She was not nearly as attractive as I thought she would be. She is short, overweight, and kind of plain-Jan looking. I didn't know what I expected, but maybe I was afraid he would walk in with some supermodel/Playboy bunny type. And throughout the evening, I noticed that while her personality was OK, it wasn't nearly as great as I expected. She ate a lot, which I kind of found amusing. I had knots in my stomach, so I couldn't eat anything anyway, but she was really hitting the chips and dip and sandwiches. lol

It was kind of weird watching them interact, with the natural intimacy that couples have. And I couldn't quite tell what their dynamic was. The whole experience was surreal. Not totally uncomfortable, but definitely weird.

What were your experiences like? Have you seen her since? Does she seem to pick up on any vibes from you?

I can't really help because I've never seen MM's W. He told me she was attractive, but I never even asked if she was blonde (like me)or anything about her.

I think it would really upset me to see a picture of her, or to see them together and how they act together. Its part of the fantasy I guess, that when you are alone with MM, he's all yours. Its tough to think that really, he belongs to someone else.
