Today, I was video chatting with my boyfriend and his friends. When I stood up, he told his friend "See, she's not a twig!" I jokingly replied with, "So I'm fat?" After a few seconds of silence, his friend yelled, "It's a trap!" and left the chat. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I went to my boyfriend's work to surprise him. When I got there, I called him on his phone to tell him to turn around. I saw him look at his phone. His co-worker next to him asked who that was. He replied, "Just this fat chick I know." FML
Today, my boyfriend sent me a text that said, "I can't be seen with you anymore. You're too fat." FML
Today, I went to my boyfriend's house to meet his parents. Right when I arrived, his little sister said, "She's a lot fatter than you said!" FML
Today, my boyfriend grabbed my love handles. It tickled, so I giggled and squirmed out of his grip. He looked at me quizzically and said, "I'm surprised you still have feeling there with all that fat." FML
Today, I overheard my boyfriend and his friends talking in the next room. I smiled when my boyfriend called me beautiful, only to hear his friend laugh and say, "C'mon, dude. She has fat ankles and smells like deli meat." FML
Today, I was at my boyfriend's grandmother's house meeting her for the first time. I excused myself to the restroom and as I walked out of the room I heard her say, "You could do a lot better. She's fat." Then I heard my boyfriend reply, "I know." FML
Today, I was hanging out with my boyfriend. Everything seemed to be going well, when all of a sudden he turned to look at me with a pensive and thoughtful expression. I expected him to say something important, but instead he just said, "I was wondering, how does it feel to be fat?" FML
Today, one of my worst nightmares as an overweight woman came true. My boyfriend showed me a video someone had recorded of us exercising together, and who was mocking my weight the entire time. FML
Today, I was video chatting with my dad. He handed the phone to his wife, whose first words out of her mouth were, "Why are you getting so skinny?" This was also the same woman whose first words out of her mouth when they came to visit us 3 years ago was how much weight I've gained. 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

To be fair, discussing a girls weight is like having a parade through a mine field.

I hate when girls trap guys with questions about their weight. "So I'm fat?" is such an accusing way of asking what can be a real asshole of a question

Who wouldn't run? There is no good answer to that question.

Why? Why try to trap him in a battle he can't win? He said not a twig, he didn't say you were the trunk either! Damn, you know if you are fat or not!

That does sound like a trap to me... I don't think it's needed to discuss your weight with anyone just accept yourself.

OP, YDI. Never put your boyfriend in a situation like that. No matter how you think it was just a joke, it was a trap.

1. He's proud enough to show you off. 2. He doesn't do twigs... He's a keeper in my books OP...

Self consciousness runs wild in women

Women and their obsession with their weight... As a man, I want curves and not some anorexic ferret. Whoever got the notion into girls' heads, that it's super hot to have zero bodyfat and to fit into xxxxxxxxxs clothes is sexy should get flayed living. I we wanted to have sex with people with neither boobs nor ass, we would hit on some third world ladyboys. No, I am not advocating obesity, but seeing your femurs isn't excactly sexy neither. Back to topic. Op you deserve it.

Clearly you're not fat if they thought you were a twig, but he didn't handle that very well either lol. Something like "No" or "No, he just thought you were like 50 pounds" would probably have gone over better.
