What do you guys say when someone calles you "fat" or "ugly" via Facebook? I mean, even if you know they've never met you and couldn't possibly know if you're either of those things, that crap hurts!!! lol

    Unfriend them. Obviously they aren't your friend if they feel the need to put you down.

    I laugh, and say "you should have seen me last year!" - bottom line is, when I lost my 50lbs I felt amazing, and when people said stuff like that to hurt me I had to laugh, because it's so stupid and uninformed, and not even an intelligent insult - it's just the easiest one.

    Don't take it to heart, because if they don't even know you, why value their words? The fact that they have to insult people anonymously via the internet is already sad enough - they're sitting at home at their computer coming up with this *kitten* while you're outside socialising, going to the gym, working hard on your goal. Don't waste your energy on them.

    What do I say? I gasp and scream "Someone on the internet DOESN'T LIKE ME?!?" Then I start penning my suicide note.

    But seriously, it's Facebook. It's little more than a digitized gas station bathroom wall...

    well no matter where the insult comes from whether its the internet or face to face or hearsay...it does hurt. People can say don' t let it bother you...well its does..maybe just don't let it consume your mind...some can say block or delete..thats great..so it doesn't happen again from the same person. I just realize folks talk tough behind a computer screen all the time, and more often then not what they're slinging out they're feeling about themselves...I will and have always challenged it...not gonna let something like that go..if they think that I would ask them questions as to why they think that. In a condescending manner of course...I weighed close to 300lbs at one point and got insulted all the time by haters...I don't see them even attempting now

    What do you guys say when someone calles you "fat" or "ugly" via Facebook? I mean, even if you know they've never met you and couldn't possibly know if you're either of those things, that crap hurts!!! lol

    What is the context? Am I asking for opinions on a recent shoot and demanding that people be brutally honest? Or are these people just coming out of the woodwork and saying "you're a big fat ugly fat fattie"?

    If I am asking for honest opinions on a photo shoot I've done or on a random photo of say, an outfit I'm thinking of wearing, I want honest opinions. If someone criticizes me by saying "that outfit makes you look fat", I will thank them for their honesty. If their response is "you look bad in blue", I will thank them for their honesty. These are constructive criticisms about what I'm wearing, a color I'm in etc. They aren't direct insults towards me.

    If their response is "you are so fat and hideous", I will probably unfriend them because that is a direct insult and not a constructive criticism. It also doesn't really bother me. If I was really that fat and hideous, photographers wouldn't want to work with me. ;)

    Now, on the other hand, if someone just randomly messages me on FB to say I'm ugly out of nowhere, without even being asked for an opinion, I would probably unfriend and block them. Because someone who goes out of their way to contact someone to insult them for no reason sounds like a psycho to me.

    I rarely call people fat or ugly.

    buuuuut I know of two fat and nasty trolls I'd like to tell that to. They are ugly people both inside and out. BUT out of respect for my SO I don't.

    my advice. Take the high road.. the low road is already crowded witht those *kitten* anyway

    I wouldn't reply to such rubbish, delete.. block and move on. Life's too short to waste on people like that and you clearly stated they don't even know you, so don't give them the power to make you feel bad.

    Had someone do that to me on Youtube. I don't know if they were a troll or just stupid - they commented on an old kung fu video where I was breaking blocks.

    I thought to myself, "Yes, I'm fat. But I just slapped through 2 inches of concrete. What did you do today?" Then moved on.

    People who know me on Facebook know better - I've never had to remove a friend, but that would be my reaction if they said something like that.

    But not before getting my verbal licks in. I'll take the high road, but not to retreat.

    Probably would just agree with them and go about my day.
