Okay, so I the guy I'm with is great and he is the one that got me into fitness, but he can piss me off so much sometimes. Like whenever I'm on this forum and he looks at the screen and sees a picture of another woman on here, he'll be like "why don't you look like that?" I just feel like I'm not good enough. I've been doing this for half a year and have made a lot of progress but it will take years before I get to where I want to be. And I work so freaking hard, I workout and eat well even if he isn't around, but if I'm not around, he won't work out by himself or cook for himself. It is a little bit pathetic. Siiiiigh. I feel really unappreciated most of the time. But whatever, we are a great team for the most part, haha.

Soooo yeah, anyone have any boyfriend rants? Gotta love 'em.

Ah, men. I don't know if I call this guy my bf yet, but I do get red in the face over some things we get into it about. I don't look nearly half as good as you do, and i probably wont for some time but he knows that I want to improve and can see that I am making changes for myself. So should your guy! progress takes time, he should know that.

I'm trying to get my gf into this, and it's coming along, albeit slowly. Still, I never ever compare her to other women that's just stupid and mean IMO. Also, it seems to me (just generalizing here, I could be wrong), that it takes a lot more work for women to get 'fit', 'cut', 'ripped', whatever than men.

I guess it's because you ladies put on fat so much easier than us men? I don't know.

Hi sexy! My IM is still f*cked up...trying to get it working;)

I definately agree...no one should compare one's gf/bf to other men/woman...unless your comparing his penor size!:p

Well I am going to assume you havn't told him how this makes you feel so
I know this is gonna sound harsh but if he says those things to you, why don't you say them back?? Next time when you see a guy in better shape, say why don't you look like that....might piss him off but then you can explain well now you know how it feels when you compare me to other women. Sometimes "other halves" don't realize what they are doing/saying until you point it out to them or put them in the same situation.

Wow, funkosaurus...I can't believe you put up with that kind of disrespect. Your body is better than most of the population's and there is absolutely no reason your boyfriend should be so critical of you.

I personally wouldn't be disrespectful back as I don't think having 2 people taking regular blows to their self-esteem and being irritated with each other is going to help matters, but I would let him know I didn't find what he was doing to be funny or helpful. If he didn't take my feelings to heart, it'd be time for a new boyfriend. Nobody should be made to feel as though they are never good enough or unappreciated. You can't feel very secure in a relationship that makes you feel that way, so what's the point?

haha i went out with this guy and he told me i had a small chest (I'm only a 34b) and that i needed to get a boob job to look better...well i responded well if i need to get a boob job then well you need to make your pen0r bigger. needless to say it ended shortly after!!

Do NOT stay in a relationship where you are not respected and loved for who you are! Ever! :mad: If your outside matters more to him than your inside... it's time to move on! Seriously! Been there... done that... not EVER going back! Now... I've got the best and I'm not giving that up either! :)

While his comments may come across as disrespectful and even hurtful, it's probably not intended to be that way. Most 18 yr. old guys don't know the effects of their comments toward others.

Tell him how you feel about those remarks and his reaction will tell you all you need to know.

You know my ex? Wow! Small world! He wouldn't find your stereotyping very funny, btw. He actually was pretty good with figuring out how to turn the lights off and on...took forever to get him to quit woshipping the TV, though. And absolutely no sense of humor. No wait, I take that back. He could tell blonde jokes but I couldn't tell caveman jokes. :rolleyes:

You don't hear men bitching day in, day out about women leaving the seat down, we just lift it up and don't think twice about it. Why can't women do that? I mean...isn't equality and compromise what you really want? Or is "equality" a euphemism for preferential treatment? :)

I remind him that I have a thing for muscle-guys - and aren't we both lucky that looks are not the only thing in the universe.

Oh - and that I'll bench press his skinny white self one day if he doesn't watch it.

He's starting to lift weights and be interested in good eating now. I might just get my muscle-bound fella after all!
