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

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I was talking to my boyfriend about how I'm self conscious about my weight. He looks at me and says, "Don't worry babe, I've always been kind of a chubby chaser." FML
Today, my boyfriend encouragingly told me that he could tell I was losing weight, all because I had one roll fewer than usual on my stomach. FML
Today, I told my boyfriend that I gained a few pounds and thought I looked fat. He replied that I looked the same and that I shouldn't worry because he likes fat girls. I never thought I was fat before this. FML
Today, my chunky boyfriend told me that he'd be less attracted to me if I gained weight. I have low self-esteem. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me I should stop talking about his major gambling problem because he still loves me even though I gained weight. Apparently that evens things out. 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
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, I went to the doctor to talk about my depression and low self-esteem. He told me that I shouldn't think of myself as a fat pig for being overweight. I don't think that and I'm NOT overweight. FML
Today, while having dinner with my boyfriend's family, his mom told me that it looks like I've gained quite some weight. When my boyfriend told her that this was a rude thing to say, she said it wasn't rude, just the truth. FML
Today, my very handsome, fit, Russian boyfriend tried to make me feel better about being a little overweight by telling me, "It's okay, you're American, everyone expects you to be fat." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

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."
perdix 31
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.
