Today, my friend was complaining about how fat she was. To make her feel better I said, "Psh, you're not fat! In fact we're about the same weight!" She looked at me for a second, then burst into tears sobbing, "I'm fat! I'm fat!" FML

Today, I received a compliment for the first time from a girl. She told me she admires my courage to go out in public since most ugly people don't like to. FML

Today, I finished a ballet class with a group of seven-and-unders. Afterwards, a new student's mother came up to me and thanked me, saying she was glad that her daughter had a "role model with a, ahem, fuller figure" and "not to worry about my weight." I have never thought I was fat before. FML

Today, at school, one of my students confidently told me that I "wasn't hiding my baby bump very well anymore." I'm not pregnant. Just fat, apparently. 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, while eating at an outdoor café, a man on the street came up to me and said, "My girlfriend is sexier than you, bitch." Thanks for the confidence boost. FML

Today, while shopping for a birthday present for my size 0 friend, I picked out a pair of pants for her. When paying, the cashier looked me up and down and said, "Well, you're pretty optimistic aren't you?" FML

Today, while tucking my toddler in bed and telling her I love her, she responded with, "And I love your bouncy castle belly!" I know I'm overweight, but I didn't think I was that fat. FML

Today, I got to see my best friend for the first time in months. Her first reaction was to say, "Wow, you gained a lot of weight." I actually lost a fair bit. FML

Wow people are jumping on the fat girl side without knowing the whole story. But whatever if your fat then your fat. If your skinny your skinny. To me there both unattractive so get over it.

And you know the whole story? Someone who is extremely skinny usually thinks anything 10-15 pounds overweight is fat; it is not. She may actually be fat, the true definition, or just slightly overweight. I'm betting, along with almost everyone else here she is just slightly overweight which isn't bad.

You deserve it for being fat.

@37... following your rule, looking infront of the "who" in the original post, the subject is clearly singular, therefore "thinks" would be the only correct verb. So, sorry, Makeba, not only is your rule wrong, but your application of it in this instance is also wrong... Personally I think snickerdoodle's original post was fine the way it was, even if it would have been clearer with SNAP's suggested "that" instead of who. Anyway, to ask a more relevant question, WHO GIVES A F**K? I really hope this argument doesn't go on too much longer, I grow wary...

@ 14 hmm no wonder you're a leafs fan. You haven't scored in a while, eh? To the OP, well at least you have confidence. She was probably just jealous.

in reply to 31's comment ,This is a pretty casual forum though, so let's not worry about people's grammatical errors. :). all i can say is asking snikers not to make a correction is like asking a Kennedy NOT to duck when the sounds of gun shots ring out lol We like snikers

I was going to point out that snickers was wrong. Looks like someone beat me to it. :(

In this situation, both girls could be overweight. One girl lacking confidence could be truly complimenting the other girl for how much self-confidence than she has and may wonder why she has it. Usually thinner people won't be as rude to call an overweight person "fat" to their face. I'm a fat girl with cnfidence too. Besides fat =/= automatic ugly face and pretty doesn't =/= automatic pretty face.
