Don't really know if this is the right place to put my question but i'm thinking whatever u guys tell me it will motivate me so here goes.....

My boyfriend took my back photo &was looking at it & said your back looks weird, I asked him in what way but he wouldn't say so i'm thinking its something hurtful but i'd rather just know the truth so here goes please take a look at my profile pic & let me know what you think he means.... I think he either means it looks like a mans cause i'm so broad or it looks fat. Please be honest with your opinions I can take it.

    It doesn't look weird. It looks strong - it looks like a back you worked for. I envy your back!

    Your boyfriend needs his head examined. Your back looks great. And don't listen to moody either. Saying your back looks like a man's is like saying a rose looks like a cat. :flowerforyou: Don't listen to the boyfriend any more unless it's actually important. lol :tongue:

    Edit: toned and muscular ≠ masculine

    repeat.
    your back does NOT look like a man's.

    you look freaking awesome!!
    keep lifting, and deadlift his @ss if he says anything else about YOUR effin body.

    It's not fat at all, and you look hour-glass shaped (not at all manly!), so I don't know what he sees that's weird. I'd love a back like that! :flowerforyou:

    You are joking, right? Your back looks fantastic. No flabby rolls and tiny waist. You look great. I can't imagine what he means.

    Aww thank you all, I really wasn't expecting those replies :blushing: .

    I think because i'm 5ft 10 and quite big that he may think just looking at my back alone looks 'weird' oh I dunno. But i'm interested to hear anymore feedback from what yous think he could mean. Thanks

    Can I just add in but I don't do any sort of lifting, its something i'd like to try but atm I can't even complete 2 mins of girlie push ups :grumble:

    My husband always jokes about how huge my back is (i'm 6ft and very broad), I find a swift slap to the chops or a few expletivs fired at him cures the situation. Don't let anyone, especially those who are supposed to love you make you feel bad/paranoid about yourself if they are then maybe it's time for them to jog on :-) xx

    Wow! Five ten and a gorgeous back like that!? I agree that your boyfriend needs his eyes and/or head examined. You are beautiful.

    Your back looks great. I think your BF needs his eyes examined. Nothing weird at all.

    2nd all the positive comments - you have a great figure and especially a tiny waist! I too would be voting for the swift slap to the chops (in a jokey manner of course!) and some expletives but failing that, the only thing comment I would make, in tiny defence of your insensitive BF, is you are not stood perfectly straight - perhaps that all he means?
    Dont let others put you down or knock your confidence - you look strong and beautiful :)
