Here are the two that I get A LOT: "You look great! I hope I look like you when I get to be "your" age"
"You look really great for having three kids"0 -
From my mom just this week: You looked really skinny today. That woman standing next to you on the hill was so fat, she'd make anybody look thin.
Bless her heart, though. She had no idea she was being cruel. She thought it was a compliment. Luckily, I have high self-esteem.0 -
"You'd be so handsome if you lost weight!"
Heard that constantly growing up.0 -
In high school " you would be pretty if you would dress better and when your face clears up" Needless to say middle school and high school sucked *kitten*!! I had acne, big boobs and was a huge Tomboy.. Fun times0

@wannabeachday that was me too :O it really sucked.0

A co-worker in an old job said I'd date ya if you lost a little weight (what a di*k) And this one is not a compliment I think she wanted to put me down lol but here it goes...my friend who at the time was 20 lbs heavier than me asked me if I wanted her clothes because they fit her big (size 20) and I told her umm I just started using size 16 haha inside my head felt like she slapped me and I slapped her harder.0

"I have a box of old clothes in the garage that are too big for me now. I bet they'd look great on you; you should go take a look!"
No mom, I don't want your fat clothes.
Why is that such a mean thing? Were the clothes not nice or something?
I've offered clothes to a friend once but I didn't think it was offensive at the time. I figured they were pretty expensive and nice business clothes so why not offer it to a friend first before donating them.0 -
Me and my friend in middle school was at the mall and was joking around with begging for money, when a girl from our class came up. She said, well if one of you should beg, it should be you cause you really look poor.0

And the worst part is I am still married to the jerk.
why?0 -
You're so fat you can't even tell you're pregnant.0
-
You look amazing for your age!0

Too many : You're a nice guy but (insert follow up here). And, yes, I've been told I'm a nice guy but TOO nice of a guy.0

Back in High School a good friend of mine told me that she was jealous of my strong legs. I was about to thank her when she blurted out "but at least mine look good in a skirt!"0

I like you but you have red hair.0

"You don't need to lose any weight...but you definitely shouldn't gain more."0

(At the time, I had lost 75 pounds...)
Coworker: OMG, pretty soon I am going to walk in and see a floating head.
Me: What?
Coworker: You're losing so much weight there is going to be nothing left of you.
Me: Awkward silence...Thanks! Strange smile...

"You look good, but you'll look better if you keep running."
-my boyfriend
The most annoying thing about this was that I work out a lot, and he never does. Talk about a double standard! I should have said that he looks good, but he'd look better if he actually started running...0
