Today, I was telling my boyfriend about how self conscious I am and how I obsess about my weight. He said, "Don't be ridiculous, you don't need to lose THAT much weight." FML

Ladies, it's usually best to never discuss your body insecurities with your significant other. Men don't know what to say, and thus will probably accidentally say something you don't want to hear...

SO true. Never ask a man about anything that has to do with weight or size. No one will leave happy. But I still think OPs bf wasn't exactly rude about it.

I hate when girls fish for compliments like this. Most of the time, there is no right answer. If OP's bf had said that OP was perfect, she would have argued back with "Omg no I'm not look at this *grabs chunk of fat somewhere on body, usually love handles*"

Would you rather he lied to you? This is a lose-lose situation for him. Either he lies to you, or he agrees with you and makes you obsess even more.. He didn't bring it up, you cornered him.

When you go fishing for compliments, sometimes you reel in a shark that bites you in the ass. Your big, fat ass.

@25 Telling someone about a mental health issue (which is what body image issues are) isn't "fishing for compliments."

You don't bring your deep-seated mental health issues to FML. This ain't a support group -- you are laying yourself bare for a bunch of sarcastic pricks to humiliate you even further. I know, I'm one of them, but it sure is fun, isn't it?

@203 Sure, if she said "oh my god, I am SO fat," she was fishing for compliments. But it seems like she was just opening up to her boyfriend and confiding in him that she has problems with body image. So her boyfriend responding by completely ignoring everything she said and telling her to lose weight was super inconsiderate.

Not everyone who is self conscious about how they look has a related mental illness or most people would be ill. Everyone feels self conscious at some point.

Yes, but OBSESSING about your weight is not a good thing. It could be a sign of body dysmorphic disorder, or an early sign of an eating disorder, in which case what he said will only make it much, much worse (and could, in fact, actually trigger an eating disorder). And it doesn't sound like she was fishing for compliments. It sounds like she was telling him how she feels. A much more appropriate response would be to acknowledge the insecurity and obsession, NOT the weight itself, and certainly not like that.
