I'm slightly fat (just edged into 'overweight on NHS BMI chart). My boyfriend is convinced he wants to take me dress shopping because I love dresses. A nice gesture I know, but the thought of trying on dresses with him around makes me feel sick to my stomach. I'm not obese by any stretch of the imagination but I know his exes were stick thin (like, size 6).
How on earth do I tell him I don't want to go dress shopping with him, without sounding like a bitch?
How do I word this without him digging deeper?
He found a lovely dress that would really suit me and it's really nice BUT the discomfort involved in trying it on in the shop with him around outweighs the pleasure I'd get from the lovely dress.
