Today, my boyfriend told me I should stop talking about his major gambling problem because he still loves me even though I gained weight. Apparently that evens things out. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was telling my boyfriend about how self conscious I am and how I obsess about my weight. He said, "Don't be ridiculous, you don't need to lose THAT much weight." FML
Today, my boyfriend let me know that when we met, he wouldn't have even talked to me if I was as fat as I am now. But lucky for me, he stays with me because, "there's love or something." 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, my boyfriend admitted to purposely sabotaging all my weight loss efforts. When I confronted him, he said it’s because he doesn’t want me to get thin and turn into one of those stuck up, snobby, mean girl types that wouldn’t date him in high school. We’re in our 30s dude, get over it! 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
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, my chunky boyfriend told me that he'd be less attracted to me if I gained weight. I have low self-esteem. FML
Today, yet again. my boyfriend told me I'm getting fat, even after I told him to stop and that it's affecting my mental health. I had an eating disorder previously, and now I'm thinking about going back to just eating an apple a day. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me because I'm now about 15 pounds overweight. When I called him a hypocrite as he's over 40 pounds overweight, he said that his weight didn't matter because "it's the girl's job to look hot." FML
Today, I noticed that I've been gaining some weight. Don't worry, my boyfriend doesn't mind. His new favorite thing is putting my boobs on his head and saying he feels "safe". FML

Take a gamble and dump his ass.

There is no comparison, a gambling addiction will literally take everything from his life. If he doesn't get some help (do something about the issue) you shouldn't stay to see the destruction.

I certainly hope you two don't have a joint checking account.

Who says OP is obese? Or even overweight? Maybe she just gained a few, it doesn't mean she's unhealthy.

Let's put both events on the scale of life, shall we? Weight gain is a reversible occurrence (if desired) while money lost in a gamble is gone forever! Judging from the way the scale tipped over at the latter; his gambling problem grossly over-shadows your perceived weight gain.

wrong just gamble again and win your money back plus more. it's as simple (easy) as that

"Misrepresented yourself to him by gaining weight" . . . wow. When you date someone, there's no mutual understanding that you will look the same forever. In fact it's the EXACT opposite. Your looks WILL change. Anyone with a brain knows that. The only way your statement would make any sense would be if she catfished him over the internet before they ever met in real life. Possible? Sure, but full of really weird off the wall assumptions. Gambling problems could ruin BOTH their lives. Gaining or losing weight is GOING to happen to them both at some point and just isn't remotely comparable. TL;DR: Bad comment. Bad assumptions. No.

He can loose everything, his house , cars I mean everything such addictions destroy everything around them, even when it's all gone some don't see the problem they stay in denial . Get out so you don't have to suffer along side him and be his patsy!!!

This sounds so much like my ex. You can probably take a guess as to why that didn't work out. I should have dumped him so much sooner. Don't waste as much time as I did.
