Why would a man say something very hurtful, and later deny ever saying it??

Question

Last year I lost 25 pounds. Everyone said I looked great. My boyfriend said "You need to quit losing weight, your skin is looking saggy!!" I was so hurt by his comments. I even asked if he was secretly jealous, and he said "no." I went back to some old eating habits and gained the weight back. I asked him recently why he said that to me and he said, "I never said that. I only thought that you had lost enough weight." I can't get over his insensitivity, and I fear that he may do it again. What is up with this?

Answer 1

I think you should dump him; he abuses and mistreats you

Answer 2

Come on....guys and girls say things and don't always realize exactly how it comes out or how the other person takes it. He probably did not mean it the way you took it.

Everyone can be insensitive, so you need to learn to blow things off and not get so upset and hurt by them.....I know i know....easier said then done. But the sooner you learn to do this, you life will be a lot simpler.

Answer 3

I say you deserve better than that. No man should ever say such hurtful things to you, and the fact that he doesn't assume responsibility for it makes him that much more of a jerk. I say dump his *** and find someone who loves you no matter what and would congratulate you for such a huge accomplishment as losing weight, not one that puts you down for it!

Answer 4

Why did you gain all the weight back? Where you doing it for him or for you?
Loose all that weight off and get another bf who will appreciate your efforts.

Answer 5

I gues your BF does not apprechiate it . Next time you do that try to do some exercise with the diet . that will help with the saggy skin . happend to me to and now it's better

Answer 6

He probably does not want you to look good. the jerk
