Today, I was feeling down because I always think that I'm overweight. My boyfriend tried to prove me wrong by lifting me up. I threw his back out. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend and I were in my backyard goofing around when he tried to pick me up. He couldn't. I jokingly tried to lift him. I did so without much effort. FML
Today, my boyfriend thought it would be romantic to pick me up, throw me over his shoulder and take me to the bedroom. Little did he know that he literally threw me over his shoulder, and I face-planted on the ground. FML
Today, my doctor told me that I have severely and permanently injured my shoulder. Last week, I attempted to lift more weight than I normally do in an effort to impress my boyfriend. He was not impressed. In fact he said that most kids can lift more than that. FML
Today, I was exercising, laid on my back, lifting weights over my head. My boyfriend thought it would be funny to casually sit by my feet and suddenly tickle them mercilessly. Caught off guard, I started wiggling, laughed and dropped the weights. On my face. FML
Today, my boyfriend tried to be romantic by dipping me backwards and kissing me. He dropped me on my butt, then stepped on my hand while trying to help me up. FML
Today, I was wrestling with my boyfriend, trying to prove to him that I was stronger. I did. He started crying. He then broke up with me because he couldn't be in a relationship in which his girlfriend was stronger than him. FML
Today, my overweight colleague twisted his ankle. He's pretty self-conscious about his weight, but I had a brain-fart and told him he shouldn't try to put too much weight on it. His feelings are more hurt than his ankle now. FML
Today, my girlfriend was feeling down because she has put on some weight. I tried to make her feel better by showing her I can still pick her up. I can, and I was even able to hide the fact that I shat myself doing it. I'm so romantic. 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 was at the gym with my boyfriend. He is a bit feminine, but it has never really bothered me. Until I realised I was lifting heavier weights than he was. FML

You don't lift with your back, that's more than likely why he threw his back out. He's a keeper OP :)

He could just be really weak. But at least he tried to make you feel better. :/

Hey, don't feel bad. I threw my back out picking up my 25 lb toddler the wrong way. :/ Shit happens, but I know it doesn't help your self esteem.

Better then what my boyfriend did. When I told him I feel over weight he said I should work out more and then brought my anxiety back.

You're fine, he just didn't lift with proper body mechanics.... Or he's a wimp, but I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. Just lifted wrong, yeah.

My daughter is almost 10 and she doesn't have an ounce of fat on her. She is lean, muscular and been in gymnastics and on her school's swim team since she started kindergarten. She tried on a pair of size 10 jean that were "supposed" to be her size...she couldn't even pull them past her knees. She came out of the dressing room, looking depressed and worried and asked if she was fat! I grabbed the jeans and no way in hell a normal girl could fit in them. They were "Justice" brand jeans. Apparently they have this idea that 10yr old girls should look like skeletons to fit in their jeans. And my daughter who has lean muscle, no fat and a lanky build could not fit into their pants. Society's version of a healthy weight is looking anorexic...just look at the runway models.
