Comments about body shape on first date?

126 replies

JustifiedAncientandMad · 08/12/2010 19:15

If a man comments on your shape on the first few dates, is it a red flag? The story so far: First date "I can't tell what shape you are under those clothes", second date "I think Nigella Lawson's really lardy", third date "you like your cardies don't you?"

My answer is, yes I do, it's bloody cold. And I think Nigella is a goddess and consider myself fortunate to have a bod like hers (which I do). He seems nice apart from these comments, and I fancy him. But I fancy him less because of this. Would you bail or bother to find out more about him?

If you look like Nigella (bodywise) and he called her Lardy why on earth are you even seeing the man??

Will you ever feel confident in front of him knowing he feels like that?!

I'm ermmmm curvy and luckily DH drools at Nigella Grin

Lemonstartree · 08/12/2010 19:27

definite No no . He is an arse. Bail

JustifiedAncientandMad · 08/12/2010 19:27

Not an adonis - slimmer than I like 'em but nice-looking. going it does bother me a lot, it's made me feel self-conscious. Never mind.
Off to work Xmas do looking glam (10 year-old DD said so).

So, it might well be a big "whatever" to him when he contacts me.

Bail.

LadyGlencoraPalliser · 08/12/2010 19:28

I wouldn't have bothered with the second date tbh.
Another vote for bail.

I'm surprised "I can't tell what shape you are under those clothes" didn't make you flee.

That would set my creep alarm off.

If you have a body like Nigella I can't imagine you are short of suitors.

If you feel self conscious after 3 dates, then you must not see him again.

After 3 good dates with the right man you will even more gorgeous than I'm sure you are.

I bet he said Nigella was lardy just to make you unsure of yourself, the insecure fucker.

KittyTwoShoes · 08/12/2010 19:35

Creepy. And rude.

Bail.
