Intimacy, Sex, Fat, Relatable and Awkward: Body positivity

Body positivity

Today, after 3 months of my boyfriend complaining his weight is making him not want sex, I suggested we go for a walk to help us both start to lose weight. He looked at me and said, "You're too fat to go walking." I'm beginning to think my weight is the problem here, not his. FML

The appearance

Today, I find why my long term boyfriend has not been interested in sex for the last 3 months. It’s because I’m fat. While I could probably lose a few, I am not obese and I am the one that has lead healthy eating and exercise in our house. FML

Today, my boyfriend of 4 years told me that I appear to have gained some weight. After realizing that it made me feel depressed, he tried to make me feel better by making love to me. I decided to go with it. While doing so, he paused and said, "I'm sorry baby, but your weight is too much pressure for my back." FML

Food fight

By hss - 30/05/2011 01:59 - United States

Today, my fiancé and I had a fight because he wouldn't let me get what I wanted to eat, even though it was my money. He said, "It's way too many calories. I'm supposed to help you lose weight." When I pointed out that I had given up a month ago, he looked at me and said, "Yeah, I can tell." FML

Today, my boyfriend broke up with me because I'm now about 15 pounds overweight. When I called him a hypocrite as he's over 40 pounds overweight, he said that his weight didn't matter because "it's the girl's job to look hot." FML

Body shaming ain't cool

By grotesque sexy - 05/10/2020 02:02 - United States - Portland

Today, my boyfriend refused to have sex with me because I have ass acne. The reason I have ass acne is from working out to lose weight. I was trying to lose weight because he wouldn't have sex with me because I was too fat. I can't win. FML

Today, feeling confident, I asked my boyfriend what he thought of my new body, since I had lost 16 kilos over the past month. He told me that he missed the old me and wanted me to gain weight again. My boyfriend was the one that encouraged me to lose weight in the first place. FML

Weight is definitely the problem. So drop his and get someone who won't talk to you like that!

So, prove him wrong and go for a walk. Maybe call some of your girl friends over and make it a group thing. Also, maybe he is stressed about something else. Talk to him.

That is really ridicules. You should prove him wrong, get yourself looking the way you want to and then leave that looser and go find yourself someone who will appreciate what they have.

Leave as soon as you safely can, being with someone putting you down isn't going to help you get fitter or slimmer.

That's a weird thing to say, also losing weight is way more about calorie intake then it is calorie burning. Best of luck.

You should start by doing two things. 1. Being healthier and potentially losing weight, for yourself and only yourself and 2. Have a heart to heart with your bf about any deeper issues to see if it can be resolved. But if he’s a jerk about it and really can’t love you the way you are now than dump him and keep bettering yourself, whatever that might mean to you
