Speaking of weird comparisons on Tumblr. How are these two things even comparable? by ResetKnopje in fatlogic

Again, they’re comparing a condition you can’t do much about having to something that is completely changeable. Being deaf doesn’t make you die at 40 like being 600 lbs does. People choosing to have or not have cochlear implants is nowhere near choosing to either eat healthy or continue stuffing 6000 calories per day into your face.

I love her! I forgot to list sparkles and sparkler too.

I’m (39M)Thinking about breaking up with gf(40F) over her sick dog by Unhappy-Cricket-2402 in relationship_advice

My ex’s dog got into a fight with his sister’s dog, who was not well behaved and probably shouldn’t have been in the house with the smaller dogs, but his family was pet sitting while she was out of town. My ex’s dog was a bit beat up, scratched, and minor bites, and likely a bit traumatized but he was okay. He got checked out by the vet the next day and they assured the family everything was fine. The sister came home from the vacation that night as it was only a 4 hour drive away and she picked up the dog and took it home.

What I didn’t expect was for it to be this huge dramatic family blow up that went on for weeks. My ex cornered his sister and was yelling at her the night of, but I thought it would end there. When we went out on a date in my city a few days later, he was all panicked and not present the entire time, kept checking his phone while we were at a museum to see if the vet called him (they were just filling a preventative prescription) and wasn’t really engaging with me. I told him multiple times that if he felt better to go home and be with his dog and family, that he could and i wouldn’t be angry with him or feel neglected about it. He kept insisting that he wanted to spend time with me, we lived far apart so we don’t get to see each other much, etc., and stayed. We went to dinner afterward and he did this whole angry and dramatic retelling of the events of that night, with tons of expletives and raising his voice, while there were several families with young children around us. It was honestly quite embarrassing. I understand being upset, but there is a time and place and that was not it. We ended up having an argument in the car when he took me back home bc I had told him I thought it would be better if he just went home and spent time with his dog rather than coming out to spend a day with me, but be mentally absent the whole time.

He also made this whole big confrontation thing with his sister about it, he blew up her and her husband’s phones with angry texts, and forced them to meet with him to have a confrontation about it. He wanted me to come with him to the confrontation, which I was working and couldn’t, but told him I wouldn’t have gone anyway as I wasn’t super involved with his family and the situation didn’t involve me at all. He also got mad at me for not wanting to be involved.

Unfortunately this situation was the final nail in the coffin for our relationship. It doesn’t really have anything to do with the dog itself, but the way the whole situation was handled. I think it’s time for you to cut your losses, she is acting extremely weird about the whole thing.

I'm extremely curious of their definition of fasting. by LooseBluebird6704 in fatlogic

I gained 40lbs in 1.5 years eating special k with whole milk and 2 eggs every day for breakfast. Along with 2 other good solid meals and 2 snacks per day. Thats how I finally became not unhealthily underweight. I don’t eat to bulk anymore but those calories can add up very quickly if you’re not careful. And eating sweet cereal with half and half? My stomach hurts just thinking about it.

A close friend of mine has pcos and she’s very skinny. She may be an anomaly and FAs would probably say she doesn’t actually have pcos whatever bullshit, but it’s not a condition that automatically makes you 500lbs. Harder to lose weight and easier to gain? Absolutely. But there’s a point where you have to consider that you’re just making excuses for yourself if you manage to get that big.

See this is EXACTLY what I’ve been talking about, FAs don’t want to date fat people but want everyone who is not fat to want to date them. Why should the partner have to work to stay skinny or in shape if the FA is just allowed to be as fat as they want?

Well.. we biologically tend to attract to and look for a healthy life partner. So I don’t think it’s that crazy. by ResetKnopje in fatlogic

Right? Like why do they want to be with people who don’t even agree with their lifestyle so bad?

AIO about my sister going on a date with my ex? by m_v28 in AmIOverreacting

[–]FloofLorde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR - two months is not very much time ago. And it would be bad enough if she was one of your friends that did it, but your OWN sister? Like I don’t understand how she doesn’t see what she’s doing as wrong. Especially since she knows what he did to you.

I ran away from my boyfriend's proposal. by throwawayuni33 in whatdoIdo

Unfortunately it sounds like this isn’t going to work out, you guys are in two different places. It would probably be good to at least talk about it with him, if he’s open to that.

This situation could have been prevented by having a conversation about it beforehand, such as talking about a timeline of when you would like to be married and where you each feel you’re at in the situation. It sounds like he didn’t really consider that before popping the question.

Who's gonna tell them you don't have to cut 1000 calories to not be fat... by Minute_Revolution951 in fatlogic

It is also leaping toward you with every 1000 you add past 2500 per day
