I think only my guy friends have ever been honest with me when I’m starting to gain weight. Never in a rude manner tho.
Only one girl friend was really honest with me. But I had to ask her directly, and she did not hold back. At all.
And she said it as if she couldn’t even contain it anymore, like as if it felt relieving to finally get it out of her system. She’s wanted to tell me for awhile but didn’t know how 😂. I don’t think there was any malice behind it. She’s always been very expressive in a funny way.
I hope I never unknowingly let myself go like that again.
