Love: How rude

How rude

By drebel - 09/03/2011 22:27 - United States

Today, I bought my fiancée a dress for her birthday. She accused me of saying she was fat, because I bought it in medium rather than small. After trying on the dress, she's now not only mad at me for buying it, but also because the dress fits perfectly. FML

Today, my husband bought me XL pajamas for my birthday. I got really angry, telling him that's obviously not my size. I tried them on just to show him how ridiculous they look. They fit. FML

Today, whilst trying on wedding dresses with my mom, she told me that I looked fat and awful in the dress I liked. When I told her how hurtful she was being, she told me that I should be grateful that she told me what she thought instead of laughing at me behind my back. FML

Honesty

Today, I was trying on wedding dresses with my future sister-in-law who is a little bigger than me. We tried on a similar dress and she said it looked better on me because I'm skinny. Instead of saying, 'No way' or 'It looks great on you', I accidentally said 'Yeah, I know'. FML

Today, I finally gave my mum an expensive designer dress I spent months saving to buy for her as she had been very depressed. However she has gained so much weight from stress eating she ripped it when trying to put it on, and now won't talk to me because, "I wanted to make her feel fat". FML

Poor excuse

Today, my boyfriend bought me a pair of jeans. I couldn't fit into them, and he reacted to this by saying I've gotten too fat for him, and he can't be with me anymore. I took them off and saw they were a size 4. I've been a size 8 for the past 2 years, and he knows this. FML

Neverending cycle

By Eiblake13 - 07/01/2024 03:00 - United States

Today, my girlfriend threw a bitch fit about her clothes not fitting and how she’s “so fat” to the point of storming out of the house when I asked her to please calm down. Just a couple of hours earlier, we'd ordered food and she ordered a salad, then asked to trade my burger and fries with her. FML

Quite the catch

Today, I was shopping for dresses when my fiancé turned into what I can only call a groomzilla. He told me and my maid of honor that we need to lose weight because he's not "paying all this money for a pair of fatties to not look good." FML

Today, I finally got the wedding dress I've been waiting months to see. It turns out that my mom ordered the dress 2 sizes smaller than my size, this way it will be "an incentive to lose weight". FML

So romantic…

Today, my proposal was slightly ruined when the ring I got her, which I could have sworn was the same size as other rings she owns, was a whole 3 sizes too big. She agreed to marry me but is now sulking because she thinks I think she’s fat and needs a big ring for her fat fingers. Give me a break. FML

Today, after months of dieting, I finally reached my goal weight. Excitedly I told my boyfriend, who gave me a beautiful dress as an early Christmas present. It was a size too small. FML

You bought her a dress for her birthday! That was such a thoughtful sweet thing for you to do and she didn't even appreciate it! Dump her.

Wow, really? A medium is bad now? Besides, not everyone is the same size in every store. If you think she's attractive, make sure she knows it, and she'll probably realise she over-reacted, might take a while, but she might get there.

i think its unfair to say he should now make her feel comfortable by letting her know shes attractive, he's already done a sweet thing by buying her a dress for her bday. she should do something for him as she made him feel like he's totally ruined her bday. no guy wants that guilt on their head.

I think clownman misses the whole point. The point is he has to show her that she's beautiful beyond the need to be really skinny and that she doesn't need to be a toothpick to be so. Some women have it in their head they need to be at least 25lb under weight to look good. I myself prefer one with some curves!

That was sweet of you but next time take her shopping so she can pick out a dress for herself? Anyways, FYL. She sounds like annoying.

26 why would he have to show her AGAIN that he thinks shes attractive after buying her a dress on her birthday?! Seriously I'm not only impressed that he did something so thoughtful, but to get the dress size right on the first try is amazing why would he have to bend over backwards more for her? He doesn't have to do shit more except wait for the inevitable apology. If she doesn't, then dump that ungrateful bitch!

Women like this make all of us ladies look bad. Next time, just never buy her clothes. She sounds like a princess that would prefer it if you followed her around the mall, gushing over all the clothes she tries on and then forks over the credit card when she finally decides what she wants. Obviously you know what she is like since you decided to propose. So next time just get her jewelry. Once you are married then you can start buying her white goods and gardening tools. Then she can never complain about not knowing her size!

@Clownman & Mitcha - The OP's fiancée is clearly insecure about her size, and if the OP wants this to get any better then his best chance is by helping her build her confidence. The best way of doing that is by reassuring her that he doesn't care how big she is and/or he likes her the way she is. I'm not saying what he did was wrong, or that he ruined her day, or even that he has to bend over backwards, I'm just suggesting that he tries to help her get over her self-esteem issues. Basically what Flashburn said.
