didn't want to offend anyone just something i think about.there are many qualities besides weight that are important

I usually dont speak that much now on the forums, but I do have a opinion on this that I am going to say, and I hope that I dont offend anyone..

First of all, I have never been a size 6, 135, ok, however I am beautiful, inside and out, and if my man goes to my friend-who just might be a size 6 and 135- then I expect my friend to come to me and tell me this first of all, then I would kick his azz to the curb. If she was my friend for 2 weeks, or 20 years, I wouldnt care. I would be more hurt that my friend didnt tell me this, then at my man for doing it...

I dont put anything past a man, and I know what men think with-most of them anyway- therefore I depend on my friend to let me know if something like this happens, then I will handle it with him!

You're exactly right. Unfortunately, that is not necessarily the attitude that is cultivated in our society--as I'm sure you know. So it is hard, and as an outsider to the marriage, there's only so much you can do (because if you are like me, you want to be able to FIX EVERYTHING, ****IT).

I can hear your frustration, and I'm sorry for you. I'm also glad you're concerned for your friends. Good luck.

I investigated your profile, and you are beautiful!! I particularly like the saturation--it's almost an orange (I have some great pictures of daffodils that I have turned all colors on Picasa, what fun!)

Keep being a strong, confident woman! There aren't enough of those... no matter what package they come in.

I dont think it has anything to do with their weight. When I was a stylist, I would get dirty looks from the wives and gfs of the men clients I had and I didnt do anything but cut their hair. I think its the woman, whether she be skinny or overweight that has the problem and shouldnt take it out on other women.

love the shorts

thanks.....my new bathing suit!!

They are cute; yellow is such a happy color.

i'm going to find some pink shorts.i love all colors

Me, too. Funny story: I had one roommate in college that when she moved in, wore only black. Three years later, I had her converted and every color in the rainbow was in her closet. Happiness/color is contagious.

i'm collecting shirts in each color love chocolate brown

I haven't bought any clothes for a while. I recently gave away about half my wardrobe to charity. It was oddly... liberating. I've been on a bit of a kick lately, actually. I also got fifteen inches of my hair cut off, and donated that, too.

I have recently been feeling depressed and jealous. I have found that giving stuff to people who need it is really excellent therapy, and would encourage anyone who is feeling similarly to do the same. It's quite a rush!

But then you have to go buy more clothes...
