  • Hi Bun :) glad that's all over for you... 4400 miles, really?

    BB have to agree with the others - would he really say that to you? That's so sad :( A kick in the nuts sounds just the thing... sorry :o

    yes, I'm afraid he would say something like that and more than likely will again. About 3 months before we last went on holiday he said 'we'll get Christmas out of the way and then you will lose weight before we go on holiday, won't you'. Just before we went he said 'you didn't lose any weight then'.....:o ......it was on my mind so much in the months leading up and I really tried. I lost just under a stone before we went which was a pitiful amount to be truthful.

    To be honest, I can't be bothered now. The excitement of researching over the last few days and finding it and checking the hotels etc has gone because if he had been keen, he'd have just said 'yes'. It's not as if he can't afford it!:mad:

    I was going to type almost exactly this, except mine started with an 'f'.....:rotfl:

    I can think of a really easy way to lose around 13 stones of 'excess baggage'*. :cool:

    Ouch Beanie, toothache is awful - hope you feel better soon.





    * that was the polite version

  • Sorry I hate that men (some men, some men, not all men, especially the lovely ones on here!) think they have the right to say that to a woman. Is he Mr Perfect? No flaws at all? Not that being anything other than skinny is a flaw, I might add. We all come in different shapes and sizes.

    Go on holiday with a mate, give him a week to clear out :mad:

  • Just under a stone is not a pitiful amount of weight to lose. BB he is being a tit.

    this weight business really bugs me,all the skinny people on TV the special K advert with the girl with the perfect figure who wants to lose weight!!!!!!! She looks good at the start of the ad. and then other people think they can comment on how you look, make decisions about YOUR appearance.

    I watched a really dated tv programme from the eighties today, there were no skinny women in it all where easily older then 20(stupid hair but hey it was the 80's) and not distractingly attractive if you know what I mean. just looked very normal.

    and then we watched CSI, skinny bikini clad women, all the female actresses were gorgeous and looked young etc, very slim/skinny. honestly its everywhere.

    *fumes*

    BB!!!

    When he comes home you must take a piece of your own advice...

    When he eventually wants to talk about it look him in the eye and say quite calmly....Oh sorry, I didn't think you really wanted to go so my mate sammy is coming with me (i've got to try haven't I).......next time perhaps...(whilst imagining kicking him in the nuts!)

    And then go with a mate!:T

    Empty his wallet and bank accounts and tell him to eff off ;)
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:
