Flight attendant comes up to me during the flight and says " I am sorry to interrupt you but you are stunning...you should be the new face for Addition Elle" ha! thanks?0

I have a coworker who takes it upon himself to critique me, and sometimes it borders on a compliment (sometimes it doesn't)
"You'd be prettier if you were taller"
"You should go to the gym more" (not bordering on a compliment really)
"You have too much muscle for a girl" (totally a compliment )0 -
My fiancé told me I've got more "bounce to the ounce". WTF is that?!?!?!0
-
where it seems like it should be a compliment..... 'Wow, you look great! You must have lost a tonne of weight since I saw you last" UMMM no, I've gained like 15 lbs..... Like SERIOUSLY, how fat must I be in your memory??!!0

Ma'am
:sad:
course now that I'm older than that first time, its no bother now...if some smarthat asks for my ID for wine now I just give them a stare down
I still get depressed when someone calls me ma'am...0 -
One of my friends is an idiot and never stops running her mouth...she has given quite a few stupid "compliments"but here are a few gems for you:
You have such a pretty face...you would be hotter than any of our friends if you lost weight.
I realized my boobs are starting to sag the other day and it reminded me of you, I was like I'm I
in the saggy boob club with you now!0 -
A friend of mine asked how much I weigh because I told her of my weight loss and I told her when she said "Really? you don't look that big."0
-
I've been told I have a fat c0ck!
He's not really fat though... Just large boned and the chickens love him!
How rude can you get? Telling me I have a fat c0ck! *shakes head*0 -
"You dont look that big" and "you'd look pretty with a boob job".0
-
My sister, looking at me, "You know, I think fat people are happier... No offense?"0

2 come to mind ...
A guy I had a crush on in high school: "so you used to be like this" (holding out his hands as a measure of size) "but now you're like ..." (widens hands). :huh:
A former male boss: "There used to be a lady that worked here who, like you, had put on a lot of weight. And I said to her ' if you're not looking after yourself, then you're just letting yourself go'. So start looking after yourself!" ... I think in his mind he was giving me the most helpful advice ever. Yeah RIGHT!!!! :sad:
Oh, and since I put on weight, I had a lot of people tell me I look like Adele. Yes, I think she's gorgeous too (and don't get me started on her phenomenal talent), but in my negative state of mind all I can think is "so I remind you of an overweight person?" I know that's not fair, and people are trying to be nice and compliment me, but ... :blushing:0 -
"You're thick."
Guy friend said it. When I looked offended, he then said "All you white women take that the wrong way! It's a compliment!"
Friend, praising my intelligence or smile would be a compliment. Making comments about the impressive width of my *kitten*? Not so much.0 -
he's kinda cute...wth kinda...im good looking lmao0
-
I was told once that I had nice child bearing hips....unfortunately at the age of 15 and already borderline with an eating disorder not the comment that makes you feel pretty lol.0
-
I went on a blind date once and he told me, "you look like Nicole Kidman from the nose up." What does that mean?? Lol. And what does the rest of me look like??
I've also been told by one of my exes, "I'm glad you are bigger. I don't have to worry so much about other guys hitting on you." Gee, thanks.
Another one, "I love your big butt. I can use it as a pillow and it will keep me warm in the winter." Via my ever so well-meaning hubby. Lol.
Also, when I had my hair dyed blonde, "You look just like Anna Nicole Smith when she was big."0 -
Being congratulated on my baby....when I wasn't pregnant.0
-
you look like a pornstar with those glasses.0
-
"You're a pretentious douche, you think you're so cool, and so smart. Well..."0
-
The mother of one of my friends back in college was the queen of back handed compliments. I think the best one she said to her daughter about me was "One of these days, he's going to be really good looking"
Thanks, I think...0 -
"The difference between you and other big girls is that you're in proportion..."
Oh great... so I'm big all over, instead of just one fat leg... thanks! LOL.0 -
Mine was either, you're fluffy! not fat or amanda you look puffy, stop eating so much sugar ( that was my grandma ) lol0
-
'See, you have real woman breasts! They fall to your sides and almost vanish when you are laying down! So great to see real woman these days."
.... I have pretty saggy tits... thanks0 -
oh! There is one guy at work who is really bad at talking to women, or people in general. He always says things and I don't think he realises how insulting they can be.
Below are a few of my favorites:
To me when I wore my hair out for once "oh you actually did your hair today!"
To my co worker who works downstairs "I could have come down and got that, I'm younger than you... It's ok I can wait while you catch your breath."
To my boss "You wear the same shirt everyday." (he replied - "You're in accounts, do the figures so I can afford a new one")
When helping on of the girls get a bandaid out for a blister on her toe. "Those shoes look too small for your feet." and "I don't know if the bandaid is big enough."
When he saw me eating a salad for lunch "Are you trying to be healthy? if you need any tips on nutrition, I'm the man."0 -
A guy in a parking lot of a gas station comes over to hit on me while my boyfriend is inside. He made 3 attempts at hitting on me really and each line got worse and worse.
"Hey beautiful lady, (wait for it...) you are gorgeous, you know, (wait for it...) I'm sure you don't hear that very often." WTF?!?!
"Actually I hear it all the time, but thank you."
"I know you big girls don't get enough love." ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
"Actually, I get plenty of love thank you very much."
And here is the line that really made the rest pale in comparison ...
"Yeah, but I know most other guys only probably hit on you because they know fat girls are easier, I just want to get to know you."
This ruined my whole week.0 -
Well.. my aunt's always had a way to make me feel worse... like one time she'd bought a very good looking pair of pants - it was size 24. She gave it to me on my birthday, and when I didn't put it on right away, she commented that I didn't like them - she thought they were perfect for me. When I told her I really liked the pants, but they were 6 sizes too big, she was actually mad at me - "You're not THAT small!" Not really a polite insult maybe but she really did mean that she'd given me the perfect gift and really did see me that big and could not believe that I was so full of myself that I believed me to be smaller than I was... yeah.... thanks..0

While thinking of having another baby out loud with my mom she says "You looked the healthiest you have in years while you were pregnant!"
A favorite~ you only look bigger in the front because you have no butt.0 -
"You look really good for someone that had a kid."
What, i can't just look good?0
