Love the comic strip and kitty picture you posted.
I hope you really didn't want that cake as it makes me sad for you if you did. I'm so stubborn, I'd never shop at that place again. And I'd make sure I walk by so he knows I'm still around, just not frequenting his business. (Just like my thread yesterday, what am I, 5 years old proving my points?) He's in the business to sell cake. He had cake, you wanted cake and had $$$. And even if you weren't on a diet like you are, he's not the boss of the cake. And what if the slice was for your DH, mom, coworker? Maybe you were only buying 1 piece so you didn't eat any and you were already in control of the situation. I get angrier and angrier about this silly piece of cake the more I think about it. I'm sorry this happened to you. |
:: snickers :: Boss of the cake. That made me laugh.

LOL Lunar!! :hug: Made me think of the Soup "boss" on Seinfeld! No cake for you!!

People think that they're being helpful when they're really not being helpful. It's quite silly but when I talk about my weight, it's like I've opened the flood gates and now every body and their cat can tell me what to do to lose weight. Oh and no matter what, they think they know better. Oh and if I do lose weight, they comment on my body even more! So yeah, I get that it's frustrating. :mad:
But that's awesome that you've lost 35 pounds! Congratulations!:carrot: |

Sometimes my boyfriend will give me a little look when I am eating something that I probably shouldn't be. I tell him I can have treats sometimes. Its allowed. Agreed that food police suck! Even when they mean well by it. and I totally :lol:'d at your cartoon |
So, he calls you sexy & then deprives you of (icky lemon) cake? He probably thought he was being funny, but that's still not cool. I agree with Elvis about walking past his store, but I would add eating cake as I passed him ;)

What in the heck?! I would have thrown that cake at his face!! I go for coffee & cake with a friend about once a month, it'd be more if I could afford it, lol! Next time I'm going to tell the lovely guys who run the place I'm losing weight and see if the same thing happens! I lost 3lbs the first time I went in there, so clearly I am eager to return, heh ;)
I swear it was the cake that did it ;) Originally Posted by lunarsongbird: I didn't read this page yet! |
While the whole thing was strange, most likely he was trying to be helpful in the only way he knew how. So I don't see anything wrong with putting it in perspective, and giving him credit for saying he's proud of your success, and does not want to partake in any back sliding, even though it is ok to have cake now and then.
Put the positive spin on it, take it as a compliment and move on. If you do want cake, just make it yourself or go somewhere else. Keep in mind, this person, granted in a strange way, does support you and your success!:D |
I have to agree with the possible culture difference 90% if my "odd" weight conversations could be cracked up to that.
|
As others have said, I think he had the hots for you.
|
Sounds like he was flirting.
|
You luvs me? Thenz give me cake!

That literally made me laugh out loud! Give me cake!
