How does one go about telling her boyfriend he's got a bit of a tummy recently? Still fancy the pants off him, only been together 4/5 months so should I just ignore it? Noticed he's not going to the gym like he use to, though still plays football once a week.looked at a pic of us taken yesterday and i reckon he's put on about 5lbs since we met. I'm not not not meaning to sound shallow!!

Was going to suggest that maybe the scales were wrong - except I then read you haven't consulted the scales but are guessing. How on earth can you guess 5lbs either way on a 6' male?
That amount might be more of a deal on someone of the OP's size, I admit. But on a strapping man? Hmm

Maybe them first flushes an all that are starting to fade Grin

what a shame that "ice melting" first few months of a relationship are currently being undermined by OP's projection of her own disordered approach to weight and eating

I can imagive how MrFirst1's post on this situation might go...can anyone else ?

death by a thousand digs ?

you old cynic you AF Grin

i do feel for the guy - both his mother and his brand spanking new girlfriend both feel at liberty to pick at his weight. imagine the future.

AnyFucker · 07/06/2012 18:05

I have sympathy for a "disordered approach to weight and eating" btw

when you acknowledge it's your problem and don't use others to bolster it, that is

TheCrackFox · 07/06/2012 18:18

You sound very controlling.

"so I feel it is my duty as his partner to offer my concern"

If this is real, the poor bugger! What you are spouting forth is actually ABUSE.

Erm... since when is 4/5m enough of a qualification to call oneself a 'DP'?

You are a ffing GF FFS, and for his sake hopefully not for long.
