2 sentences I'm having trouble expressing.
Could you please help me express these sentences properly and grammatically?
1 That doesn't mean he loves her more than I do you.
2 He isn't as cuddly as my last boyfriend. His most cuddly state is my ex's least cuddly state./When he's at his most cuddly state with me, that was my ex's least cuddly state.
Thank you
