Today, my boyfriend of a year and a half informed me that he had "accepted" my stomach, even though it didn't conform to his "preference" for a flat stomach. He then added that his acceptance doesn't extend to my "chunky thighs". FML

tell you boyfriend that you "accept" his small dick even though it is your preference for a large one

Tell him that he can accept that he's single, then. No reason to say those things except to be an asshole.

Tell him you've accepted his stupidity but your acceptance doesn't cover the relationship so therefore he is single

Part of me wonders if he was trying to make a very poorly phrased joke. I mean, O.P., you Irish are like us Scots. You have a pretty dark sense of humour. He's been in a relationship with you for over a year. If he was really so shallow that he couldn't accept your weight, I doubt it would have lasted as long as it has.

Trying to put down your partner like that isn't okay, even as a joke. For the record, I'm a Scot with a particularly aggressive style of humour.

I'm not a stranger to that kind of joke, just yesterday I told my partner he had a shitty hairstyle and he looked like a wanker, but everyone knows you can only get away with it if people are expecting it from you. OP was clearly not.

Tell him he mustn't get so upset, after all ...thighs don't matter that much , and he should know.

It is time for a new boyfriend. My guess is that he is wishing for you to break up with him (family and friends like you) so grant his wish. You deserve so much more than that. There is someone who will love you just as you are. You deserve nothing less than that. Drop his excessive weight and see how much better life gets.

His bitchy ass better start accepting the single life.

OP, please don't let him off if he says it was a joke. It's not okay to say those things.

I would be outta there SO fast. I'd never dream of saying something so cruel to my partner. Find someone who cares about you, as a person, not just as a thing he can put his dick in.

Tell him if hen can't accept you for being you, then he can accept being single.

What a little boy. Real men don't act like that. Dump that turd.

So, does he have any redeeming qualities? I wouldn't be able to be with someone who criticized my body like that, even if he was otherwise great.
