What's the most unhelpful thing someone has said to you ....

Something that was really embarrassing a few months back... was on the line at the bank (the line was super long) and finally after being on the line for about 20 minutes the teller tells me “you could have just cut to the front of the line since you’re pregnant”
..... my response : “I’m not pregnant2 -

Automatic throat punch
I wish I had said something right back to be honest
Isn’t that always the case? In the moment, you’re so taken aback that you’re speechless but when you think about it later you can think of a thousand retorts that you should have said.
It always seems to be the case. At that moment in time I didn't click on to what she had said until I had left and thought about it at home0 -

That makes me mad! You're literally getting cut open but what does that have to do with being a real mother?? Both are as equally painful!1 -

Wow what the heck? Why do people think it's okay to say that nonsense? Sorry about your cancer, my heart goes out to you.
I've also been told, "I wish I was skinny as you." You mean you want to be unable to keep any food in, lying in bed all day from weakness, and can't have any fun or live a normal life? Go for it!3 -

I'm sorry for you as well. I'm getting better! Even though my doctors use me as a test dummy. I've had more surgery than I can count on two hands. I have surgery again actually on monday! That sounds terrible laying in bed all day, most days I feel actually kinda normal. I've had the same thing said to me "looks like you're losing weight" well thanks for clarifying what my body is doing. Or I wish I could be skinny as you but I love food too much. I didn't give up food I HAVE LYMPHOMA.4 -

Moder...what...? Please, I eat one cookie and I'd have to eat a whole sleeve.
This has got to be the dumbest thing I've ever read.
Of course that "skinny *kitten*" has never had to diet...she knows how to moderate, and naturally has a diet that balances out. Therefore has never gotten fat enough to actively restrict intake. Freakin' DUH.
Just because you have not made the effort to exercise self-control doesn't mean it's not a thing, and that other people don't have success with it.
If you can't eat one cookie and stop, the problem is you own behavior, not moderation.4 -

I can fend for this though my best friend is 90 pounds soaking wet and she eats 100x the amount I've ever ate and eats very unhealthy and still stays like a toothpick.2 -

Yeah I'm pretty sure she was implying that a woman meant to have a child would be able to give birth naturally. That's how I took it at least. She never got the chance to explain herself. I told her to get out and we never spoke again. If she never had ill intentions I assume I would have heard from her.
Good for you!
Love of YHWH if we were not meant to have children we would not have the eggs and uterus ... If it had been the 1800's at least one of you if not both of you would have died ... so if she doesn't like modern medicine she is welcome to never use it again.
So glad you dumped that dead weight!0 -

Thank you, dont you know i need more protein though.
Like seriously why do gym bros comment on things they dont even know. For all they know i eat nothing but chicken breast tuna and brussel sprouts. "Just eat more protein" ......
I also once had a gym bro tell me how to lose weight "properly" by eating nothing but low calorie vegetables, AFTER hearing i lost 110 pounds. Like seriously does it seem like i need your opinion on my food.Im a bit salty2 -
"Did you get a flat tire?"
Nope, not at all you dumb*kitten*... I think the bottom half of it is just taking a little rest before we go any further down the road.4 -
"He/She is in a better place"
Like WHAT?
I am crying because I will never see/ talk/ hug/ interact with this person again; I miss them!!!
Just let me grieve and be silent.
