Which is why I don't waste my breath, and why I don't even bother to get really mad anymore. I can only deal with a certain amount of anger before I flip out and go ballistic, and going ballistic doesn't usually solve anything, it just makes the situation worse. I prefer to pick my battles, and he was a lost cause, in more ways than one.vesta44https://www.blogger.com/profile/15480692717585745934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397186280973403909.post-51389882109234921002009-06-29T18:21:37.941-05:002009-06-29T18:21:37.941-05:00This makes me furious.

I was good friends with his wife....a tall thin woman. <br /><br />His wife told me herself that he had an obsession with models and new the name and statistics on every super model in the world. I never could figure out why she married him. He was a truly creepy guy that made my skin crawl. <br /><br />In my opinion, guys like that are insecure jackasses with a tenuous sexual identity and a near inability to produce children the old fashioned way....if you know what I mean. Their only relationship with women is porn. They can't handle real flesh and blood women in the real world. They prefer their women in pics and pieces...not whole and real. <br /><br />He has the problem, not you.Kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15728909660494660677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397186280973403909.post-73710324626016579182009-06-29T12:52:19.071-05:002009-06-29T12:52:19.071-05:00"If you ever get that fat, I'll kill you...."If you ever get that fat, I'll kill you."<br />That is really disturbing. I'd venture to guess that fatphobia isn't that guy's only problem.<br /><br />And the story of the mom and daughter at the buffet made me sad.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397186280973403909.post-47767449575991802652009-06-29T11:33:18.506-05:002009-06-29T11:33:18.506-05:00purplegirl - For too many years I cared about what...purplegirl - For too many years I cared about what people thought about how I looked, and tried to meet their expectations, and was never good enough. It got to the point that I decided to say to hell with all of them, since nothing I could do would ever meet with their approval, I would do what I wanted with my looks and to hell with all of them. If they're that shallow, that they base their like/dislike of me only on my looks, then I don't need them in my life. And for people I don't know, and will probably never see again, I'm not going to waste my time getting mad or hurt at what they think or say. <br /><br />bilt4huggin - Yeah, and what the SOB doesn't know is that I was this fat when I met and married my husband 2 1/2 years ago, so DH wasn't basing his love for me on my size, he loved me for other reasons (and two of his ex-wives were thin, one was short and fat, so he's not a man who looks at a woman and judges her by her body alone).<br />DH likes rummage sales, and we go whenever there's spare cash, or something we're looking for that we think we can find at a rummage sale and not have to buy new (recycle, ya know). It was a great weekend for sure.vesta44https://www.blogger.com/profile/15480692717585745934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397186280973403909.post-75614206501179853132009-06-29T08:33:47.878-05:002009-06-29T08:33:47.878-05:00From a Damaged Logic point of view, one could supp...From a Damaged Logic point of view, one could suppose this asshat was giving your hubby the fuzzy-eyeball because he LET you get fat and live. Worse, your hubby has the gaul to LET you be seen in public. Obviously your hubby is a man who has no regard for his possessions.<br /><br />Score on the Rummaging. My wife (Whom I have allowed to live as well. Shame on me) got me hooked on yard sales some time ago. Once I was introduced to the aspect of 'Really-cool-stuph-you-don't-actually-need-but-can-get-for-a-song' it was pretty much over. <br /><br />Sounds like you had a great weekend and, after all, happiness is REALLY the best revenge.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8397186280973403909.post-37107821590327282812009-06-29T03:25:34.867-05:002009-06-29T03:25:34.867-05:00I'm glad you didn't let the jackass bother...I'm glad you didn't let the jackass bother you; what a total asshole to say such a thing a) to the woman he supposedly loves and b) in hearing of your family and c) at all!purplegirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02952678339075163056noreply@blogger.com
