I know I'm a chubby person, and I accept what body I have today. But sometimes some people would always comment of your body, and it's kinda annoying, everytime we see each other that is always his/her comment. They letting my confidence down, I hate it. I never did anything wrong to them. I know that they are chubby too, but even once i never commented of what body type they have.

Oh I exactly know how you feel because I feel the same way. I am chubby right now, and whenever I upload a picture on fb, the first thing that they will say is all about my weight. It is annoying yes! But now? Im used to it. And I made it as my motivation to kinda lose weight a little bit. And you are right, it does make your confidence down a little bit because of that. But I'm telling you, just don't mind them.

Hi stariria,, Hi I found it funny... who know y? I am chubby too.. and I experienced that before.. the undying comments from everywhere.. I was affected also that time.. I felt down and about to loss my confidence... But now.. I was not affected anymore because I accepted already those kind of comments and I am matured enough now.. I maybe chubby but I am happy and fulfilled... I have now a different point of view in life.. what is important to me is the personality and not the physical features of the person.

Hi starirai! If we would let others affect our mood they would be very happy because they know you are affected. But if you will just ignore them they will stop eventually. If these people happens to be your friends, then maybe its time to keep distance from them. Have a great day!

What is wrong with Chubby? No one is perfect. Some of us accept that - you sound as though you have. Some don't and they are the ones that deflect their own unhappiness onto other by being critical. Looking at you user picture, you do not appear chubby

Chubby - One of the great way to boost self esteem is to think of positive things from your negative traits. and this by chanting how wonderfully created you are. And indeed you are beautiful. Every morning, look at the window and convince yourself that .. you are wonderfully created and you are beautiful.. I am beautiful, no matter what you say, words can't turn me down.
I know the feeling.. argh! and yet you can not show that you are defeated... only that you wish you are slimmer... but hey... look at the photo attached here and next time they told you that this is you have to tell them. hmp!

from viewing your picture i think you are not chubby as you talking about but any way many people always look at the physical appearance of the person instead looking on the heart of the people they meet

Hi stariral, There are many people like this and it's wrong to say such things. In my opinion it's a form of bulling.Such people are often just trying to take attention away from themselves and their failings. Believe in yourself and be proud of who you are. Blessings.

Hmmmm... maybe they do not know what they are doing. They thought that is fine with you. I think you can tell them what you feel because some people just say what they want to say and did not even know that they are hurting someone.

Hi stariari. I first think that you need to get rid of those insentitive friends.. I think its just plain rude for anyone talks about our weight..I am a little chubby and when anyone start to talk about my weight..I stop them in the middle of their sentence and advise them "if they can see I can see it and now WHAT"??? I will also advise them how rude it is also...

Having a chubby body figure is not something wrong. Many men do find that body figure attractive actually. Though it is quite common for some people to devalue another just so that they feel better about themselves. These people are pathetic beings and they would like divert all their dissatisfaction towards others. So dear Starirai, there is totally no need to be offended by these pathetic creatures. Live strong and be happy. Ignore what they have to say and sooner or later, they shall lost their interest in picking on you.

Are you in love with them? so, who cares what they say about you. Tell them, to get a life.

Well it happens with lot of people. You can take this as an opportunity to train yourself to not get affected by other's comments. If you are getting affected it implies that your behavior is in their control, they can make you happy or sad. Also you are giving them way too more importance than they deserve. So don't let others control your thoughts/emotions. And above all if you just tell them openly on how you feel most would stop doing that.

im a chubbe girl as well but i never ever let other people pull me down just because of my weight or the size of my waist line, boos your confidence, and besides chubby girls are trending already, because most of us know how to carry ourselves with full confidence, besides maybe they're just jealous.

Who wants to be called like that anyway especially if you feel that it was said with the intention of insulting you? I also feel bad when someone tells me I am fat, how big I have grown..blah,blah,blah! But I just do not mind them because i usually look at this people and see if they really look good physically and I just smile because I don't like to offend them by retaliation. My smile speaks for itself... Ignore them, baby!

I used to have such "friends" they make no better comments and always try to pull you down especially with the confidence part. They would tell you you looked fatter, it would be good if you lose a few pounds, and when you do lose a few they would tell you you looked better with a few pounds. ha i too have had enough fromm such people!!! its just annoying. I think you can try and make them feel how it is to be told that you are this and that. I am sure they will feel the same way. The last time i met this friend i really told her to look in the mirror and stop being a professional with me with all her comments, her opinion is not welcome. hahah

You know what? Some people would never stop criticizing, good or bad, especially relating to physical attributes or features. The aesthetic value physically comprises only a small part of who we are and what really gets a big piece of the pie is within us, what's inside in our hearts and minds. So, no matter what, you be the judge of yourself more from within and never put yourself down with just what people see in you physically.

There are a lot of self-centered, annoying people around. And you just need to learn how to have a "thick skin" with all the insults that they throw at you. You should not look at yourself as nothing. You are entitled to be happy and you have every right to feel what you feel. If still, despite your silence, they continue mocking you, give them one great one liner that will make them re-think of ever insulting you again.

That is annoying. Especially when people deliberately make you feel good so they can feel good about themselves. It is actually pitiful because they cannot seem to live without the negativity in their life, whether they are the giver or the receiver of that negativity. Anyway, if I were you, I would just ignore them and let them see that their words mean nothing to me. Of all the opinions about you there is, theirs matter the least. And those whose opinions do will never make you feel bad about yourself. Let them get tired of their bad ways, once they see that you are no longer affected they will look for another one to taunt. If only the rest of the people will just ignore them, they will eventually realize that they are driving people away even those who are worthy of knowing and befriending.
