Today, my boyfriend and I were choosing animals that reminded us of eachother. I said he reminded me of a tiger because he is really muscular. He told me I reminded him of a zebra. When I asked him why, he said it was because of my stretchmarks. FML

#5, stretchmarks don't occur just because she's "let herself go" - don't be so insensitive. girls naturally get curvier (hips, breasts) during puberty and it can take a few years after puberty is done for them to TOTALLY disappear. they don't need to be reddish - often when they're old they're skin-colored and not as easy to detect. don't be such a prick.

What's wrong with what he said? Stretch marks do look a lot like zebra stripes.

#41, you said she reminded you of an elephant and a donkey? Jesus. What a charmer. Keep hold of her, I don't know many girls that would laugh at that.

My God...just because she has stretchmarks doesn't mean she's fat...I weigh 118 lbs at a height of 5'7" and I've NEVER weighed more and even I have stretchmarks on my boobs, butt and thighs, for one thing because like #12 mentioned when you get curvier during puberty and your boobs grow too fast it just happens and the other reason is simply that I have really weak connective tissue, hereditary issue that I got from my Mom...and that's all stretchmarks are...ripped connective tissue that heals and the scars show up as stretchmarks

#41, I'm guessing you didn't say "you're an elephant because you're huge and wrinkly" or "you're a donkey because your teeth and ears are huge." Because just as in "you're a zebra because of your stretchmarks" that little bit extra makes it cross the line from a silly joke into rude. It's like saying that when you look at the person those imperfections are all you see. If you just throw the name of a weird animal out there, sure, it's just a joke, but if you're actually coming up with things to back your claims it's just... not that nice.

maybe he was trying to hint that he wants you to lose weight ... saw an opportunity and took it?

I hope you broke up with him IMMEDIATELY!

He may have not meant it meanly, but he definitely should have thought about where he was going with that.

That's SO offensive - it's not funny nor acceptable! Stretch marks are an incredibly sensitive subject for the women whom have them, since many think they're shameful... DUMP HIM DUMP HIM DUMP HIM DUMP HIM
