Gym bro

By kaplwv116 - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, my extremely in-shape boyfriend told me he hasn't had a chance to work out lately. I jokingly poked him in the belly saying he's getting chunky and winked. He burst into tears. FML

It's funny how if this was a guy doing it to his girlfriend, people would be insulting OP to no end.. Instead people are mocking the boyfriend. No one likes being called chunky, or fat. Especially if he's one of those people who work really, really hard on their bodies.

you heartless bastard has he ever called you fat?

Poor guy...he was feeling insecure. My boyfriend is like that too except he has never cried

Yeahhh. It's just best to never tease anyone about their weight/body. Some people are very sensitive about it (myself included), so it's advised to just never go there...

Seriously, folks. I have BDD (body dysmorphic disorder) and on top of that have been teased about my appearance a ton...

It is NORMAL for men to cry, even straight guys! Perhap you don't know that the guy went through all the troubles to build his self confidence. Calling him chunky, is like calling him ugly. Sarcasm doesn't work with some people, especially it is height, weight, or physical attributes. It is rather insensitive. I don't need a guy tell me I need to wax my arms because its hairy. How do you think I feel? How would you think he feel?

I agree with everything...only about the height thing, I enjoy being called short. :) Everyone teases me about it, friends included, but I think it's a good physical quality so my feelings have never been hurt over that.

many people who workout a lot actually have a body dismorphic disorder

LADY IS NOT HOW THE PERSON LOOKS! ITS HOW THE PERSON TREATS YOU & LOVES YOU. IF YOU ONLY LOOK AT PEOPLE LOOKS.. YOULL NEVER FIND TRUE LOVE. this maybe the nicest response I ever said.. & yes you're an asshoe -chernay

sounds like he has an eating disorder (yes men can have those too). i would say ydi for being inconsiderate but since hes a man i forgot there's a double standard. i mean if he did this to you, then he'd be a hearless piece of shit not worthy of the life of a cockroach at a rebecca black concert. but since you did it to him fyl. im so sorry for you.

it's his fault he can't take a joke though... me and my girlfriend joke like that every week... at least until one of us looks hurt -.-
