To be offended by a present on my friends behalf

[pregnantat50]

My friend is in a relationship with a man that constantly goes on about her weight, she isnt fat really, just nicely covered, a size 12-14 dependng on the shop. He has already given her a Christmas present and she said thank you but I was seething on her behalf, he got her a calorie counting wine glass! Also in the box he sent her was a box of chocolates, when she thanked him, he made it clear the chocolates were for her daughter and not her.

She hides her dissappointment well, but I think hes being unkind. He did put thought into buying her a present but not a nice thought

I hope you advised her to dump him pronto!

"she isnt fat really,"

'really'?

Think you've got at least one too many words in that sentence.

I'd be deeply insulted if someone called me 'nicely covered'

Well fair enough but I'm just pointing out OP may not have meant it rudely or passive-aggressively. There is also nothing wrong with "she's not fat really" - to me that means maybe she thinks she is or is a bit over what she'd like, but she has nothing to worry about.

Not getting the posts giving OP a hard time.

God there are some nit picking twonks about - go polish your sleighs or something.

Let's hope your friend tells him sooner rather than later and that her birth control methods are robust!

Nicely covered is a term used to mean curves in the right places not fat but if I offended you I am sorry DierdrePewty not meant in that way
