I've just sat through dinner with my 2 teenagers and husband where a discussion about going on holiday ended with my husband and daughter basically telling me I'm just. a big fat embarrassment. I'm about 7 stone overweight and dress comfortably, especially when I'm not at work. I'm not interested in dressing up to impress other people. Surely even if they don't like the way I look, it's not right to bully me like this.
Basically if my husband left tomorrow, I'd be over the moon. There's been a long history of him being critical about my appearance (not that he's any oil painting) and we haven't had sex for about 6 months, mainly because I don't want to do it with someone who is either completely insensitive, or else thinks it's ok to be nasty to me. My daughter is being set aa poor example by him in getting at me, but I can forgive her for being a shallow self obsessed teenager.
