    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: Confessions? : I'm curvy and my FI loves it =) He makes me feel better about myself all the time.
    Posted by FutureMrsDudley55[/QUOTE]

    <div>I think that's the thing I just DO NOT GET about women. You should feel great about yourselves! Its good your FI reminds you that you're sexy, so many dudes are assfucks about it. I never understand how someone like my wife can look in the mirror and not want to fuuck herself right then and there.</div>
  • I confess that I'm really, really angry at myself for not continuing to exercise. I just wrote a long blog about it, but what it comes down to is that I'm used to being able to motivate myself to do ANYTHING. I absolutely have issues with being perfect, but up until about two years ago, it was only being perfect intellectually. I didn't really have any body image issues until right before I graduated from college. Then, all of a sudden, it just hit me. I also feel bad complaining about it since I'm generally happy with my body, but my arms actually repulse me. And as a feminist who's always talking about how the media is warping our minds and how we should love ourselves regardless of our shape, I feel like an ass.

    Ok. I'm done now.
  • Biogirl - I think I might end up doing the same thing.  I still have about 6 months to get rid of the weight, but I'm worried it's not going to happen.  I confess to telling people that I dont think my FI will like my dress and that I should go looking for a different one instead of just telling them that I dont think I'll be able to fit into it.

  • Thanks, biogirl. I know that if I feel good, I'll look good, and vice versa :) I'm crossing my fingers that the corset will do it! I graduate tomorrow and so have had massive amounts of stress finishing research, school, and finding a job, etc., so I'm hoping the two weeks between school and the wedding will help me "deflate" physically and mentally!

    [QUOTE]I confess that I am little mad my brother and his girlfriend just told me yesterday that she is pregnant and due right around our wedding.  I know I only get one day and all but he's always been the one to get the attention and such from my parents despite never finishing college, getting into an truckload of debt, mooching, and the like.  Just for once I thought I was going to be special and now it's already all abou the baby.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: Confessions? : First of all, that was damn funny.  Second of all, I think you're right about it only being some guys.  Sure, they all have their ideal woman (we all have our ideal man) but I believe that most men, by the time a woman is naked, is just so excited to see a naked woman that they're not too picky.

    <div>Haha this is true but it's not even about seeing something bad and choosing to ignore it because we want to get laid. We really don't see it in the first place</div>
  • DH tells me that he doesn't really care how much I weigh as long as I'm happy.

    I confess that I wouldn't want DH to post here. And I'm not even sure about how I would feel about IRL friends posting here.

    I kind of like having somethign that I just do for me, you know?

    And like, TJ, lately, I'm not posting as much, but I've been lurking. I also just am not having that much to say.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: Confessions? : Oh I hear you (<strong>most other guys don't but I DO).</strong> Look, I'm married to an awesome woman.. if I didn't think she was awesome I wouldn't have married her. There's really nothing in it for me to be kissing up to a bunch of girls I don't know. I'm genuinely interested in the whole disconnect between what women think they look like and what men think they look like and so I had some things to say on the issue. I don't remember if I said most guys or some guys but I should've said some guys. Most look at women the same why I do we just don't tell them very often. So yes, you're being cynical, but it's cool.

  • Here's a confession to lighten the mood of my other:
    I bought a tote bag from vista print that I had personalized to say "Jessica NewLastName EST: 5/15/10" to take on our honeymoon. Well, I've been using it for the past week as a gym bag.Surprised

    [QUOTE]Poli- for some reason your story of having to shelve your engagement announcement really upset me.  I'm glad to hear your mother is now aware of how hurt you were and is working on avoiding that in the future. I would have been hurt, too!
    Posted by mandapanda78[/QUOTE]

    Yeah, it sucked pretty bad. Actually, the entire summer was pretty horriffic. It was like my family was slowly imploding. It's been uphill from there, but that was one three-month period I'd quite happy get removed from my brain :P

  • I can't believe that I got "so up in arms" about the original AFSB girls when I made one post in the middle of a thread about it.  I also see no need to comment on it because I have stopped posting or looking at their sorority.  Why is the justification for why I stopped posting over there any of anyone's concern?

    Exactly.  They're just not judging us (women) as hard as we think they are or as hard as we judge ourselves (and each other).

  • I confess that I spend entirely too much time lurking on TK.

    I confess that I am obsessed with losing weight before the wedding. I used to be skinny, too skinny really. I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis ten years ago, and my energy level went in the crapper. It ios so hard to motivate myself to work out, and I need to stop using the MS as an excuse. My MS doctor yelled at me and told me that I was choosing not to exercise. No, beyotch. I work full time and I am a part-time student. Trust me, I would love to exercise, but some days I leave my house at 7:30am and don't get back until 9pm. On the days I am home early, I am studying or  oing what I need to do in my life (cleaning, shopping, etc). Weekends? I have classes and homework too.

    I just want to drop twenty pounds. I love that my FI loves methe way I am, but I want better!

    When I saw Kasi pop back in a day or two ago I thought to myself, "I bet someone, somewhere, at some point is going to bring up that damn halloween costume, AGAIN."  and sho nuff. 

    People are like friggin elephants with that thing, I swear.

  • I confess that I would hate it if Dh came on the boards. These are my safe place to vent about in law stuff and self confidence issues.

    I also confess that I'm still adjusting to Dh being home all the time. He used to work 11am until 10pm, and I got used to my routine of being home by myself in the afternoon. Now he gets home before I do and it's kind of weird having him around the house all the time.
