Does a lover or close friend criticize your body?

My hubby dont say it, it is a mutal knowing at my house i know that i need work, but he would never belittle me. And never want me to have surgery to change something unless it was what i wanted. I have had 3 children all by c-section and i still havent regain full feeling in my abdomin around my scar so that has left me with a little hang belly fat and it is next to impossible to get rid of. I also have probually gained over 50 pounds since i have had my kids but he still dont just blurt it out hey honey you are getting fat. we have discussions but only if i start them. alot more men and woman need to be like that, looks arent everything. it shouldnt matter what someone looks like as long as they are still the person that you had fallen in love with on the inside.

No, my lover loves me for who I am and tells me I beautiful all the time. For me, it is my family that has the problem with me. I use to be a little s,maller before I had kids. So they tell me all the time what they don't like about my body. Ohh ur face is getting fat, oh this oh that. But i say hey this is me, i love myself and if you don't like it kick rocks... It's just an expression, like when little kids don't like something they always seem to kick rocks, pout, or stomp they feet. they get so mad that I tell them this I laugh.

That sounds quite harsh! I'm pleased to say that the people I am close with have never made such a hurtful remark to me and I suspect that if they had, I would no longer be close with them anymore. Life is hard enough without being critisized by those we love!

Occasionally my hubby will tell me I need to work on my tummy. I have had 4 kids and so I have this little roll when I sit down. I actually don't think it looks too bad. So my reply to him is always "When you lose your gut I will lose mine.". He always says that his is babyfat that he can't get rid of so I say well mine is from having your babys and I ain't gonna get rid of them. Honestly I can't see why it would matter to people. I consider I have a pretty good figure especially after having the 4 kids so I don't stress about it or anything. He just drives me insane lol.

My former boyfriend always criticizes my body. I don't know but he always told me that he loved me for what i am and what i have but he's always turn to an end to notice some parts of me. So,i changed everything on me including my body shape coz i really didn't want to hear something about me that he criticizes.

he don't accept you for being what you are and what you have. there's something he wants but you dont have. some guys have the attitude of being perfectionist. if he try insisting, ask him and tell him frankly that you are hurt by that idea. i experience that already and the idea of being perfect to him broke the good relationship we have.

My husband never criticizes my body. If anything he loves every inch and its hard to handle his admiration sometimes...especially if I can't envision what he sees. I guess I'm lucky in that sense. If anyone else cricizes my body, I really don't notice because I am who I am. Most the time I agree with what they share and they don't get a rise from me. Maybe that's why I never notice the criticism. The way I figure it, It doesn't matter what anyone else really thinks about my body. I have to be happy with the way I look and when I am...that attitude shines and others start seeing me the way I see myself.

I am sensitive to all critics like this.May be because i dont like my body.But nobody is ideal. So if a friend or a lover criticize me too often, i will remind him/her that he has own imperfections too.

If he does that then to me he doesn't love the other person when it is true love, you love beyond physical appearance, you love their heart! and worse if they want you to do surgery ! yuk! its not love , it's called lust, and it won't last run...

til dat they havent....but if they do i would take it as constructive citicizm and probably change if im convinced that i need to, else ill ignore.
