    I said, "Well, you're not a super model or anything, but I think you're good looking". I obviously failed that test.

    That's a fail? I don't know why. It really is the truth about 99.99% of women. And you said you thought she was good looking. Which you probably do. And, like you said, it's the truth.

    I don't know why something like this would cause a ruckus.

    What a pain in the butt it must be to maneuver around the narcissistic delusions a lot of women have about what people are supposed to think of them. And what is acceptable to tell them when they ask. Tiresome at best.

    Wooow did you just call his wife tiresome with narcissistic delusions?! LoL Well, thats not kind.

    I mean, I dont understand why so angry...its not like she turned into a beast and slayed him or anything lol...actually, he mentioned she was just a girlfriend at the time, and they went on to get married. Sooo, not really a total fail, he doesnt seem angry at his wife, very interesting that you are..hrmm!!!

    I got from it that he felt he could have expressed better what he thought about her beauty, that he was lucky to have her rather than to say shes no supermodel. :blush:

    Thats a backhanded compliment if I ever heard one... Reminds me of those "dating coach" guys, the slimey ones, who teach this stuff...to give a compliment and then take it back "That dress looks hot on you... My grandmother has curtains that look like that"

    Yeah, you're not over reacting, hot lab guy would be jerk lab guy after that LoL Maybe hes just clueless yeah, but...thats a bit much.

    I was thinking the exact same thing!

    I was told the exact same thing by a girl one night. She said "omg you are gorgeous to be a bigger girl!". I was like, no booh, I'm gorgeous period. She was bigger too might I add. Wouldn't see like to see me skinny then

    I've never heard the "you're ok for a fat dude" thing. My case is a little different. I have burn scars on my face (left side if you look at this picture carefully). I've gotten everything from "I felt bad about my acne until I met you" to "I never notice it." Uh, yeah.

    OT: is that a mandalin tat on your arm? I can't tell if it is a mandalin or dulcimer. My daughter is playing banjo as I type this. Love the mandalin and banjo.

    Actually now that I think of it, it looks reminds me of Brian Setzer's guitar. Or it is a bass? What do I know. The whole family plays stringed instruments except me. I'm the dancer...LOL.

    Hrm. Toughy there.
    As a professional lab rat I'm going to have to question the tone. The fact that he did it in the elevator makes me think he had nerves, and nerves make you say dumb stuff.
    I'd let it go. My guess in knowing and working with lab rats is this:

    We didn't choose a life of working with bacteria/chemicals/molecules because we were smooth.

    So I dunno I'd be complimented.
    Unless he said it like a jerk face. Then he's a jerk face

    I say stupid stuff quite frequently (I'm one of those people that lacks a filter and is totally socially awkward). I would seriously hope that no one would make a decision on my character or the type of person I am based on one interaction. They'd be missing out, because I'm pretty rad :)

    I can't really opine on the guy in the OP - I don't know his intent, but I'm sorry if it hurt your feelings.

    Hahaha. How true this is. I've yet to work with a charismatic, smooth talker, in the lab.

    and as I scientist myself, I also have trouble speaking to people.

    My husband is a scientist, and he's also on the autism spectrum (Asperger's), so he's naturally very socially awkward, and I asked him what he thought of this guy's comment.

    He said, "Only someone who wants to get punched in the face would ever say something like that. Even I know that."

    Yea he probably didn't realize how inappropriate that was. Its like saying hey if there were a group of big girls you would be a ten but next to thinner women you probably wont rank just because you are overweight even if all the smaller women were annoying or something like that.
    My bf says that just because someone is overweight doesn't make them unattractive which made me feel better since I am overweight.

    I hope he realizes and learns from that comment.

    Meh.

    I was on a coffee date with a girl once and, after she told me she used to sing in the choir as a kid (catholic), I asked her if her priest molested her. Sounded funny in my head...

    You're overreacting.

    Brian Setzer plays Gretsch Hollow Body guitars. If they get all uppity you can throw that at them.

    It wasn't a complimentary compliment so don't feel guilty about feeling some type of way about it. It just means that he would ordinarily find someone like you unattractive, and is surprised that he doesn't in this case. If you were to date him, I'm sure there would be a lot more "socially awkward" comments coming your way, as he would constantly be in awe of the fact that he is open-minded enough to date a big girl, and able to look past your flaws to see the real you (your real face). Either that or secretly ashamed of himself and would take it out on you sometimes.

    I feel the same way about people who say "you're pretty for a black girl" or "for a tall girl I think you're attractive". Keep your garbage compliment to yourself, please and thanks, and don't do me any favours.

    This is exactly what I was thinking as I was reading through the comments.
