Ok, so I run into someone I hadn't seen in a long time. Here's the convo:
Her: wow look at you! you've lost so much weight! you were SO FAT!!!!
Me: uhh yah I lost quite a bit
Her: YOU WERE SOOO GIGANTIC!!!! SOOOOO FAT!!!!!! I was sure you would have died by now because you were SO ENORMOUS
Me: ummmm nice chatting go fkk yourself
hahahah WHY do people think it's ok to say that hahahah SO obnoxious, you know that was STILL ME right????
hahah just reaffirms my life philosophy that people are horrible
Oh, I hear 'ya. There are just some people who have no mouth filter; i.e., there's something missing in their upbringing or else they're just dumb. I was at the gym yesterday, and a friend asked how my diet was going. I told her fine -- still losing slowly. She said that she could really see it everywhere but my butt which was still huge. The poor woman is so socially inept that she thinks she gave me a compliment. I just laughed at her and kept on doing the elliptical because nothing I say is going to turn her into a thoughtful person.
i hate it when people think it is their birthright to make these sort of comments and give advice. I had a new neighbor move in recently. On our first meeting , the very first...after we had gotten chit chatting for about 5 mins, she asks about local gyms and then proceeds to give me a big lecture as to why i shud go to the gym and lose weight, along with a couple of scary examples of stuff happening to people becos of their weight issues. C'mon, u do not have any idea as to wht i do or don't do for any of my so called 'issues'....who r u to comment!!!
btw...ur conversation sounds funny now but i know how u must hv felt. but as u said..people..!!!
"Wow, you're right! And you know what? I was ugly and stupid too! Good thing I lost all that weight so you can think I'm actually a decent person now!"
Wow....I'm usually quick to give a person the benefit of the doubt when they make a rude or insensitive comment, but this person is clearly just stupid.
People! geeesh!
