Flat-chested mean comment from supposed friend

[Stardust35]

Before going on a work night out I was already feeling anxious/panicky (social anxiety). Despite telling my husband that I really didnt want to go, I pushed through to join, thinking it would be okay when I got there. Before leaving I put on a new dress that I felt confident in, did make-up nicely etc. Then whilst out, I complimented a supposed friend on her dress. Another colleague said she was jealous about her boobs filling the dress, and wished she could. Then supposed friend said, "you do have boobs unlike [me] who really does have a flat chest."
I'm a b cup. I'm already inwardly self-conscious and felt totally shit about myself from that comment. Every one else sitting nearby looked taken-aback that she said it. Am I wrong to still feel upset now?

What an utterly despicably rude comment. Everyone who heard will think badly of her don't worry.

What a cow, anyone who makes you feel like that isn't a friend and I'd get rid.

What a strange comment to make, let alone at a work social event.

Shitty comment. And also, how teenage. I haven’t heard ‘flat chested’ used as an insult since I was about 17.

Spot on.

I'd think very badly of any woman who commented negatively on another woman's body.

I bet you are flipping gorgeous.

Yep. She outed herself as a twat. I'm sure she's jealous to come out with such a spiteful comment.

Flat chests look better in clothes anyway, easier for sports/running etc - I’d have taken it as a compliment.

Big boobs aren’t better than small boobs.

I'm barely an A. Dread what she would say about me.
With friends like her, who needs enemies? You deserve better.

Thank you. I really appreciate your comments!! I felt like crying to be honest, it felt really hurtful and unnecessary. Obviously I just brushed it off and carried on but the comment stayed with me all night and I'm still upset about it now tbh. Feel like sending a WhatsApp to say 'why did you say that?' But it's probably a bit pointless, I reckon she's probably already forgotten.

She’s probably jealous of you in some way, but she’s only made herself look bad.

If I had heard that, or overheard it, I would have been shocked at her being so rude, and judged her badly for it. What a bitch!

A b cup is hardly flat chested. I'd have like to be a b, as it is I'm an a and DH says he's fine with that.

She is not a friend.
Friends wouldn't say utterly stupid, cruel and demeaning comments like that.

Please don't take it to heart. She has clearly shown her true colours.

Step away from her .

Completely out of order @Stardust35

I still remember when I was subathing on the beach with a friend and she looked over and casusally said "oh you really are very flat chested aren't you". I was SO upset, not least because I was wearing a padded bikini and thought I looked pretty good!

She was a very sensitive person, and although had a lovely figure was self concious about her stomach and thighs. Can only imagine the outrage if I'd said "wow your stomach really is quite flabby isn't it".

It's somehow more socially accepting to comment on someone's body if you're not saying they're fat, IMO. It's all rude though.

I can't imagine ever making another comment like that about another women. I'd literally make a compliment or would just chat in a friendly way. Her comment seemed hurtful to me but I thought maybe I was just being too sensitive.

B cup isn't flat chested. When I was a B cup mine were nice and pert and didn't need a bra. Now they're bigger because I've gained weight and droopier. She sounds jealous of your figure because even if you had been flat chested, that was a bloody rude and uncalled for comment.

And agree with others, the other people now think she's a dick.

My breasts are massive and I wish that I had a b cup! B cup is the best cup! Bet you look gorgeous. Try not to give it any more head space

Absolutely not being too sensitive.

34B is the perfect bra size. Clothes fit well and tits don't sag. I wish I was still a B cup.

I'm not sure it was necessary to brush it off.
Saying 'ouch' or something similar, draws attention to her rude behaviour and means you aren't left bottling up your feelings..

What a cow! B cup isn’t flat chested and even if it was so bloody what, some women don’t even have them at all and it doesn’t change their beauty, she sounds jealous and unpleasant.

Agreed.

Wish I'd said that's not a very nice thing to say.

Hard in the heat of the moment though and when you're with other people. I'm sure everyone was thinking it was incredibly rude @Stardust35

As a fellow B cup, (and forever glad I don't have more), she is probably jealous of your figure. As others have said, she hasn't made you look bad, she's embarrassed herself and shown herself in a bad light.

OP it's purely a reflection on her not you.
Btw she's no friend. Forget it and her.
