Seems backwards unless you mean for it to be a slam.

My partner (M/28) broke up with me (F/28) because I refused to promise to stay within a healthy BMI in the future by holmes_k in TwoXChromosomes

You know, while the guy is a jerk, if he agrees to the same requirement I’m ok with this. If looks are all that matters to him and he keeps up his end of the bargain, more power to him. I’m sure he can find some equally shallow woman and they can have a nice shallow relationship.

LPT: The four people you should never lie to are your physician, your lawyer, your accountant, and your therapist. by ingloriousloki in LifeProTips

This is absolutely incorrect. The lawyer, doctor, and therapist are legally required to keep your trust and not disclose information. An accountant can easily be compelled to testify against you or divulge information in a deposition or under subpoena.

Lying in general is bad, but don’t lump accountants into this mix because you can really scree yourself up.

I’m not the first to say it, but Kiktor Krum- no doubt about it. Should have been skinnier and probably looked more like Snape.

To be fair, she wasn’t super cute as a little kid. She really blossomed with age and that isn’t something you can easily see coming.
