This is for men... I would say the same if men create their own thread about women.
I´m agree that it´s horrible feeling to know that men pick their partner´s overweight for the fun... They take their partner´s self-confidence away... It´s terrible because it could make partner seek for chocolate to sataisfy their esteem... It makes them gain more weight. Those people who make fun of your weight is low self-esteem and loser.
But... but... but... there´re difference between "make fun of their partner´s weight" and "support their partner with health and diet".
I beleive it´s important to have open communication between the partners. Its about open mind and honest. It´s great to have friends or partner who support you with health and diets. I can tell that some people misunderstand the difference. It doesn´t mean that they judge you but support you with feedback. It´s important for partner to motivate each other to improve their health what they knows about right foods etc...
I HATE when anyone say to me: "You are beautiful........." because it sounds flattery (2 faced) to me. I rather to have their honest about me. I have friends who are honest each other about our health issues and how to improve health, weight loss, etc. It´s cool to listen and reassure each other because it helps weight loss easily. Example: It depress you more to deal with your diet problems, then I would listen you and advise you something... OR we do that together. It develop good esteem when you praise your partner & friends about weight....It make her feel good...... It won´t hurt if your partner want to have ice cream sometimes.
I don´t understand why people offend easily when men honset with them about their weight because I know the difference between make fun of overweight and help/suggest you...
If I am happy with my weight then I would tell my partner that I´m sataisfy with my weight. If he tried to convince me then I will tell him that I´m sorry if you don´t agree with me over my weight but I´m happy with it... If he can´t accept to this which it mean that he care about my look and weight more than ME then I will know that he´s not right for me.
I don´t care either you are fat, thin, slim, clabby, or whatever but your beautiful personality... I would be honest with you if you ASK me for my opinion about you and your size because you deserve my honestly. It shows that I´m your true friend.
