Self-bodyshaming

By Anonymous - 01/10/2015 12:16 - United Kingdom - Milton Keynes

Today, I saw my ex-boyfriend walking down the street in my direction. I've put on a bunch of weight since we broke up, so I turned to look in the nearest shop window, hoping he wouldn't notice. Unfortunately he did see me, looking straight at a KFC. FML

That seems ridiculous. You should be proud of who you are, and you should flaunt your happiness in front of him to make him miss you. Way to go OP :)

It's hard to flaunt what you haven't got.

But if you pretend to be happy in front of him, he will be miserable and try to get her back, putting op back on the moral high ground.

It said that she's put on weight. Weight that's put on can be lost. Not for beauty standards, **** those, but for physical health

Do you think real life is Disney or something?

If you want your ex to feel like shit, well I'm pretty sure that puts you on the moral low ground. In fact, if you want anyone to feel like shit then it does. The **** is wrong with you?

I mean if she did do that to try to make him miss her she would be kind of an ass. But the rest yeah.

Well excuse me for trying to express a nice sentiment. Sorry for trying, damn :(

she didn't say she wanted him to feel bad. she didn't want to be seen by him and feel humiliated. She's clearly ashamed of her weight gain.

I kinda understand/relate. If I see my ex, I put on airs in front of her as if I've been having the time of my life since after the break up. I guess to make them seem like they aren't worth your time anymore?Something like that.

Well, hum...FYI I offer online personal training if interested. Obviously you're not too happy with the extra pounds you've put on! Let's get started!

And you care why ? Only thing that should matter is that you feel good about yourself, not his opinion of you or your appearance

In an ideal world, perhaps. But for most people, looking happy, rich and successful when an ex sees you is important, especially if it was the other person who ended it. It's that whole "The best revenge is living well" thing.

Rock those new curves! Or work hard to get whatever body shape you feel most confident with. (:

I understand everyone saying she should be proud and I agree but you have to keep in mind that us girls are really self conscious, sometimes for no reason. Plus, who really wants to talk to their ex anyways? It doesn't seem like they were friends, and to be honest I probably would have done the same thing as OP

maybe lay off the guilt twinkies so next time you'll be more confident and show him what he's missing

I know people will hate you for saying that, but admittedly it made me laugh.

People will hate him for it because people hate to hear the truth. Honestly, if you aren't happy with your body then change it. if you don't change it, then obviously it isn't THAT important to you. You make your choices, own them.
