Nasty Things People Say and How We Can Overcome

Yesterday, I was shopping for a pair of shorts because 1) I only own one pair, and 2) the size I have is too big (yay!). So I grabbed a pair to try on in the fitting room. Well, I didn't know the lock was broken and that no one could see anyone was in the room. As I was trying on a pair (which were a size smaller, but I couldn't zip them )-- struggling a little complete with my gut hanging out a bit-- an older gentleman pushes up my door and sees my struggle before seeing my chubby tummy. He looks at me and goes "oh..." and shuts the door and walks out. I change back into my clothes and head back into the store. The guy finds me to talk to me. He didn't apologize for not knocking or anything, but he tells me "next time, please shop the plus-size section. You might have better luck there, or better yet, Catherine's Plus SIze is across the street, their clothes may be more fitting." :sad: I felt so crushed, especially since I've been working hard (he should have seen me when I weighed 230 pounds)!

Then I felt terrible for ordering a smoothie 10 minutes prior and drinking it. I wanted to curl up, die, starve myself... I went and jogged on the trail and cried...

My god, what a total douche. I think these kind of people must have a few brain cells missing, I literally cannot understand how else to explain that kind of rudeness. Either that or his mother didn't love him....Either way, he's an idiot who will always be a idiot likely, you on the other hand might be overweight, but you can change that, unlike he can with his douche bag personality.
