Unintentionally offended a friend

Shit.

So I’ve lost a lot of weight. I’ve got some quite nice bits that don’t fit me anymore.

I text a friend of mine today to ask if she wanted them. I said I had finally got round to having a wardrobe clear out and I’ve got a few really nice dresses if she wanted to have them.

She replied with, “great. Because I am fat? Nice.”

I replied that I didn’t mean it that way, I just wanted to see if she would like them as we have the same style and they were things she’s commented that she liked when I used to wear them.

Shes not replied.

Supposed to be meeting up with her and her toddler tomorrow. I just wanted to pass them on to someone, a lot of the stuff was only worn a few times.

So she’s basically saying that you were fat. I think she’s insulted you there. Maybe back track a little and say, “they’re probably too big for you anyway. Just thought I’d offer.”

The OP was fat, she's lost 10 stone?

The difference is the OP accepted that and lost the weight.

Her friend is clearly in denial and got insulted about it.

Gosh, she sounds really nasty. I'd love a heap of free clothes if they were my size!
