HAHAHA... does that ever sound like me! Lol. But not my hubby haha. I can't stand having an argument with him! It is no fun lol. He sits there and listens to me throw a fit and says nothing!! He won't argue back haha. What's the fun in that haha. But I always win in the end anyway hahah.

Yeah, that's the thing with Jon and I....he can give it to me just as well as I can give it to him! It's hard trying to win an argument with him!! LOL

clueless people are just that clueless. Some people do not mean harm. Especially the sanguine type personality. I think they just open their mouths and what they think comes out totally unaware, that they may have hurt your feeling are not. just love em and move on

did anyone watch Dr. Phil today? He talked about how people react to other people's looks (good or bad.) There was a woman on there who favor one daughter over another because her older daughter was beautiful & the younger one was a little chubby & had a skin condition. My heart was breaking for that little girl....her OWN MOTHER was treating her like crap!

My best friend in high school went through that. Her sister was naturally tall and very slender, whereas she (my friend) was naturally sort of short and stocky. You could tell just by having dinner at their house which one was more "popular" with Mom. And not to get too off-topic, but on the subject of "Moms" and the damage some of them can do...my Mom was anorexic when I was growing up (I've posted this on other threads, too, so sorry if it's repeat info.) Anyway, when I was 15, I went to visit my uncle in Spain -- and quickly contracted amoebic dystentary from some bad tapas my cousin Javier fed me. Long story made short, I spent 14+ days in bed (and in the bathroom) and lost about 25 lbs. in those two weeks. And I had started off at about 140 lbs, so it really wasn't a "good look" for me. I eventually was well enough to fly home and my Mom met me at the airport. She TOTALLY flipped out..."flipped out" meaning I'd never seen her so HAPPY in all her life. And it wasn't because I was finally home (and walking for Pete's sake)...it was because I was so thin. She took a photo of me then and there, and it's still on her mantle today because (in her words) it's her "favorite picture of me." Which is fairly sick considering the fact that I (in all seriousness) look like I've got about 4 hours to live in that pic. Not to mention the fact that the photo was taken in 1988. And it's now....{{{{checks watch}}}} 2005.

So I guess my point is that the cruelty and insensitivity doesn't necessarily have to come in the form of verbal insults...there's LOTS of ways to make someone feel like a pile of doggie doo.

Sorry, I think that came out more as a rant than anything else...OBVIOUSLY, I'm still very bitter about it.

Someone needs to slap the **** out of that women!!! That is so cruel!! We are all the same! We are all beautiful in our own different ways! That women would hate it if she was treated that way!! I bet Dr. Phil let her have it good!!!

I have never had anyone say anything to me about my weight out in public, my grandma always asks about my weight what kind of diet i'm on yadda yadda yadda, i remember when i was 11 she was like you have such a pretty face but... (isn't this everyones favorite saying) how do you finish it off... but your *** is huge? LOL that drives me crazy

cemetarysiren25 09-20-2005 11:29 AM

Oh, I HATE HATE HATE that!! You have such a beautiful face! Not, "you're beautiful", just your face. What is that? Do they think it's a compliment?

Poo on all of them!
