Re: Comments on weight/appearance (possible TW maybe?)

[nayance]

When I went to university, I lost a lot of weight due to different eating habits. About 8 months after last being at my parents house, I went to visit for a few days and they both kept gushing about how much weight I'd lost and how they couldn't believe it. They've been trying to lose weight for pretty much the entirety of the time I can remember, but were never able to. And no wonder: you can change what you eat all you want, but if you're having huge portions, it's not going to make a difference.

There wasn't anything rude or mean-spirited behind it. I didn't mind the initial comment, but after that, it felt like I was being gawked at and I was not comfortable with it.

I wouldn't blame you for being uncomfortable in that situation. It's weird coming from people who know you, it'd be weirder coming from people who don't. I think it's pretty much widely accepted etiquette to not be all over people's weight and such.

OP

Exactly. I could handle it when it was people I know well (and to be honest, even then made me a *little* uncomfortable because I don't like drawing attention to myself), but for this lady I barely know to do it in such a weird way, it just made me uncomfortable. I told my mom about it and she didn't get it at all, just told me that I was being being ridiculous, and losing weight is one of the greatest things a woman could do and I have no right to be bothered by the lady's comments. Like you said, I felt like it was polite to not comment on other people's weight and told her that and she went on about how losing weight was always so wonderful no matter what and how could I not be thrilled by what that lady said? Which kind of bothered me as well, but she obviously has a pretty screwed up outlook on weight.

I don't know, I'm rambling now, but yeah, I'm starting to think people need to just keep their mouth shut about other people's weight when it's not someone they know well.
