One liners from well-meaning partners that cause an eyebrow to raise...

My dearest DP has just pranced in to the bathroom where I was showering shouting "Vagina! Vagina! Vagina!" So I shook my arse at him and he said with such glee "wow, there's a great wobble on that!"

He meant it as a compliment. I was like yeah, thanks love. I'm a bloody size 8!

He's now singing to himself about how I smell while ironing my work clothes.

Anyone else have a fecking weird unique one?

Mine said today, ' You're really strong, do you think.its because you are so stumpy'

Seriously what does that even mean - does being short and fat make me strong - in what world does that even make sense as a question.
No, no I don't think eating cake and happening to be short is how I became strong.

Potatoes are versatile :-)
My partner told me I had "the grace of a goddess but the balls of an ant" on a recent snowboarding trip. Although he was trying to be mean, I thought it was lovely.

One of my ex-boyfriends from all the hundreds thought he was complimenting me on how he could always count on me by telling me I was "predictable"

Couldn't predict me dumping his sorry behind though

[LemonRedwood]

I dumped him for cheating on me, not that comment!

My DD once 'complimented' me with...


"mummy, what clothes do mummies wear?"

"Not you. Normal mummies."

Bless. Her.

I casually insult DP too. My favourite is to whisper "bear, darling bear..." So he looks over then stick my tongue out and fart in his mouth then run away laughing

[Sallystyle]

You fart in his mouth??

[Only1scoop]

That must take some doing from the tongue bobbing to the farting in his mouth....

[roarfeckingroar]

I was joking. Surely no one actually does that? Aside maybe Mark Oaten?
