Uuurrgghh vent
So HH came and ate lunch with me at work today. After he left my boss comes up to me and says "you need to stop feeding that boy, wow!" I looked at him and said yes HH lost alot of weight before the wedding and he's gained it back. My boss then goes "yeah and then some". You DO NOT tell a woman you think her husbands fat! I know HH has gained some weight, but what business is it of his? I'm really mad right now, but kinda hurt to. I feel like he told me I was fat.
Edit: I lost alot of respect for my boss when he said that...
Two souls but a single thought; Two hearts that beat as one
Re: Uuurrgghh vent
Geez lol this makes me sound like I think my HH is fat! I don't though, I love my HH and it doesn't bother me and that he's gained a little weight.
Just tell him it's all thanks to your amazing culinary skills! And that you're the trifecta of perfect wife and he can suck it!
Whether he meant to p!ss you off or not, it's still a rude comment. Why should he give a sh!t what size your hubby is??
Thanks for calming me down girls, I'm glad I can get on here and spout to yall so I don't say something I shouldn't lol
My boss is one of these people who says what they want whether you like it or not. In some cases that can be good, but not when you cross the line of being rude. He's made little "jokes" to me before about different things and I've ignored them. This one just really ticked me off for some reason.
Didn't somebody's mom call the extra pounds "happy newlywed weight"? You could say that it's just a sign that he's happy and that you're a good cook.
I can sympathize, though. Someone a couple of steps up the chain of command was very rude to me the other day, and it was obviously just to put me down and mess with my head. I hate it when people think they're better than everyone else just because they're in management positions.
I agree with Stu that I don't think your boss really meant anything by it but it would still make me mad if that was said about my husband. I say "dust yo' shoulders off" and let it go. Sucks but he's your boss so I think other than if he says it again you can tell him you don't appreciate those kind of comments.
Haha personally I would have told him "I'm sorry, but I find your comments very rude, I would appreciate if you would keep such thoughts to yourself"
but meaner
haha one time in highschool I had to wear these CRAZY rubber bands on my braces, that went from the bottom teeth, up to the top teeth, and back down. It looks ridiculous. I cried when I left my ortho. The next day at school a girl who sat in front of me in one of my classes asked "whats wrong with your mouth?" and I was soooo pissed off and offended! I just told her "That's RUDE" and she realized how rude it was but I was so mad haha she started to apologize and I said "No, that was EFFING RUDE" and I turned around and ignored her for the rest of the year lol.
So yeah, I don't like rude comments about people's appearances.
Unfortunately I'm not that outspoken, I wish I were though. I'm the quiet person who never says anything =/
