'Friend' made me feel *kitten*
Options
I'm friends with a surgeon colleague. Today this conversation happened when he met my size 10 (US size 6) sister ;
This guy is straight talking, which is why I like him and he's funny. He has said I'm pretty and would look better if I lost weight like casually but today I found this very offensive and hurtful and don't know if I'm just being overly sensitive, as I am very sensitive about my weight.
What would you have done?
Needless to say I ended the friendship but who's right? He claims he is just helping me. Is that what friends do? Or am I being over sensitive ?

Your profile says you are 31. I'm also a 31 year old woman and would never bother replying. You're in charge of the company you keep.3

I don't see how? I bumped into the guy today with my sister and he said that what's so amazing about it ?

If only there was another Brit on mfp who could translate this so we would know if it was "an American British thing".
