Today, while out with my boyfriend, I gave a beggar some cash, who then smiled at me and said to my boyfriend, "You have a beautiful little lady, take good care of her." Flattered, I hoped my boyfriend would agree with the compliment. He turned and said, "Hear that? He said you were little." FML

It's time to reevaluate your relationship if a stranger is nicer than your significant other.

Teasing can sometimes mean a healthy relationship. Just because he's joking doesn't mean he isn't nice to her.

Well "little" is a bit ambiguous. If the context was regarding height then it's harmless. However, if it was about her weight, then that kind of teasing can be destructive and not healthy in a relationship.

The FML doesn't provided any context, but if I had to guess. I think the boyfriend heard the nice part but decided to focus on the little part for the ***** and giggles. So really I don't think the boyfriend was being an ass. But maybe that's just me.

I don't think he was being an ass either, he was more like your average guy. Loads of guys will get an opportunity to compliment their significant other and just not see it. Mine's like that. It's not that he doesn't love me or doesn't think I'm beautiful... He just doesn't compliment me much. Teasing is a normal part of our relationship, though.

Little isn't a bad thing to be though! I would stick to what the beggar said to you :)

I took it as the boyfriend implying that she's fat and that's why he was giving her a hard time about a stranger calling her "little".

so she can pay him for compliments.?

Honestly, I might've responded the same way; not in a vicious way of course, just teasing. I don't like it when people fish for compliments.

OP wasn't fishing for compliments. A guy complimented her, she probably smiled, and her bf volunteered that with no "request" or "fishing" from her. If helping a dude out who then shows some gratitude is fishing for compliments, maybe OP needs to find a new boyfriend

I actually read it wrong, I thought it said she pointed it out. My bad.

correct me if I'm wrong but maybe he was joking around, he probably felt happy inside for that and wanted to make light of it as many men do :) if not then remember there's no criMe in being short :)
