Today, after making several comments about how I didn't exactly look thin, my boyfriend said, "Well, at least we know you'll look good pregnant." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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, I was doubting my boyfriend's feelings for me, so I asked him if he found me attractive. He replied, "Well, you're thin enough…" That's all. FML
Today, I was talking to my boyfriend, feeling pretty low. I said something along the lines of, "You like me even when I look like shit." He replied, "Ah, that's just how you naturally look." 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, 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 was afraid our future children would be fat and ugly. He reassured me, saying that he was sure our spawn would take on after him. FML
Today, I told my boyfriend that I'm pregnant. He seemed excited, and said we should make the baby fat so he can bounce her on his lap and watch her double chin jiggle. Just to prove he's serious, he's been searching for high-calorie foods for babies. FML
Today, while in bed, my boyfriend pointed to my stomach and said, "Bad fat", then pointed to my boobs and said, "Good fat." FML
Today, I was proudly telling my husband that I only gained 8 lbs throughout the pregnancy thus far. I usually obsess over my weight, so it was a great accomplishment for me. He then turned and pinched my arms, saying, "Well, looks like all the fat migrated to your arms." FML
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

At least he was trying to make a compliment. Keyword: Trying.

Take the compliment! You were just told that you look beautiful with a bit of weight. The weight comment may have bothered you, but he was trying to compliment.

Could've been a worse compliment

to be frank, what were you expecting? it's probably fair to make an assumption that this isn't the first time you've talked about your weight to your boyfriend, and you say yourself that you made 'several comments' about it. he probably ran out of patience trying to validate you in the way you wanted so you got a flip remark instead. so, i'm sorry, but it does sound like YDI on this one.

Plumpa humpas need love, too. At least they need plumpas to hump.

Well, while weight comments are never taken well, I would take this to mean that you can put a little less work into staying active and eating healthy. I would love to be able to gain a few pounds, but my metabolism won't allow it.

Aw. Worlds smallest violin. Looks like OP wasn't the only one to go fishing today.

Aww he wants to have a baby with you. Quit fishing for compliments or you will chase him away!

Hmmm....this is a toughy. Did you ask him repeatedly if he thinks you're fat? If so, then I guess he was just a little miffed and wasn't really thoughtful in his answers. If he is anything like my ex high school sweetheart, though, I feel terrible for you. One day I asked him if I looked okay in some of the blouses I was trying on and he said, "honestly it looks like you've been eating just a BIT too much comfort food lately". It was a hurtful and tactless comment, but he was right. Flash forward three years later. I could still stand to tone up but I look a lot better now. And guess what? Now he's fat and single! If you love him, OP, just chalk his comments up to raw honesty. But if he does a lot of other things to upset you, don't even entertain the idea of getting pregnant by him!

Hey OP I feel your pain. Look on the bright side, he didn't say "yeah babe, we all know you're a fatass."

Fishing is stupid. Fix it if it bothers you that much.

Don't fish for compliments...be confident about your size no matter what you look like.
