So today I was having a very typical feeling fat as fuck sort of day and also not really doing much about it sort of day

NewYearSameMe
and i'm bitching to my best friend about it, as I am want to do when I am being self absorbed

NewYearSameMe
and she says to me "You're not fat, you used to be fat, now you're just kinda chubby"

NewYearSameMe
and i was like girl no I FEEL fat

NewYearSameMe
and she says "Do strangers ask you if you're expecting or when you are due? Because they ask me - REGULARLY."

NewYearSameMe
and like holy shit I felt bad for her and then okay yeah i'm an asshole for being self absorbed

NewYearSameMe
I dont think she looks pregnant just kinda 40s fat

NewYearSameMe
people are rude

NewYearSameMe
but i haven't seen her in a year and she's telling me she's got a big belly so i guess I trust her.

NewYearSameMe
but aren't you supposed to "not assume" people are pregnant? ack so rude

dkronfeld
People can be pretty thoughtless that way.

NewYearSameMe
she said someone wrote her an apology letter about it

NewYearSameMe
i can't imagine it happening a few times much less regularly

dkronfeld
It really bugs me when I get asked that too.

NewYearSameMe
dkronfeld
: i should suspect so

dkronfeld
The feeling fat thing though? I don't think it ever goes away.

NewYearSameMe
dkronfeld
: well i'm still fat to be fair. I'm just "less fat"

dkronfeld
Leaner


NewYearSameMe
dkronfeld
: you're a gentleman and a scholar
