My husband (30m) and I (26f) have been married for two years. I try to stay relatively healthy and in good shape while he is quite overweight. Today he said to me while I was getting in the shower “wow that’s a perfect body, if only your t*ts were bigger”. I got quiet and he immediately said he was joking. I’m pretty confident in my body but I’m failing to find the humor in this statement. I walked into the bathroom and he followed me in, I asked him to give me some space and he left but came back two minutes later. I asked him once again to please give me space and he got mad at me and stomped off because he just wants to spend time with me and I am being ridiculous. He says I was overreacting to a joke and he is sorry I didn’t find it funny but he stands by the statement.

I’m not sure if he has resentment toward me because I am healthier or what the deal is, but I have been cold to him for a couple of hours. Am I overreacting?


Tits not even breasts ? He is teasing you. Lucky you. You re overreacting .

My dear, you're not overreacting. Youre on point. Next time, he'll learn how to bridle his tongue. Hes prolly seen a bigger tits out there and wishes (like he rightly told you) you have it.

Don't let him manipulate you. He meant it and out of the abundance of his heart he has spoken. But because he's seen you don't find it funny, he's tryna twist the whole thing on you. To think he's the one with the not so great body but you never complained and he has the guts to bodyshame you. Men are always like that.

Just give him the warning of his life never to body -shame you again. Then let it slide.

Yes, you’re overreacting.

This is someone you swore to spend your life with. You can’t possibly be getting upset over every jab he throws your way.

Plus , he already apologized.

Nope. there's a difference between yabbing someone jokingly and "lamenting" the manner and tone of her hubbys statement is one of regret. The "if" there says it all. You too check the statement na "If only they were bigger" its different from "see your small tits". The latter sounds more like a joke while the former has a tone of regrets and Lamentation. He wishes... It's not funny to him. Got that?

Well.. still not enough to start fantasizing about it and lamenting to the wife.

Anyways, what does she expect from an underage hubby?

So how did u know he was not joking?how did u know all men are like that?maybe only the men u have met
Most women insult each other husbands during gossip(be it jokingly or not)....but it is a crime if d man does it jokingly
Your second point on "underage hubby" doesn't even make sense?do u want your husband to be 50 or 60?

One can’t joke or play with his wife again. All thanks to these feminists!

Girls with lime breast are always like that. Very wicked and unforgiving. It’s in their genetics.

I'm waiting for the day your wife will say to you:

"I wish your preek was longer."

Then we will know what your exact reaction will be.

Yes, you're overreacting. Husband and wife make fun of themselves when alone so what's the big deal You too make fun of him. Life's too short.

Why can't you see the underlining meaning behind the man's words?

"If only your breasts were bigger" is not a joke. That's the comment of a man wishing for something he can't have with his wife. He wishes it were bigger which means he may likely push for wife to get breast argumentation surgery or look for someone with bigger breasts to fulfill his wishes.

Now if he had said something like "see your small breasts like agabalumo" it sounds so much different from his initial comment. This one passes off as a joke and she can yab him back.

The way we word things clues in on our innermost desires. That man has seen a lady like his wife with bigger breasts and he wants it. His apology is just a cover-up.

Is that why hubby will now say he wishes it were bigger? Like she created herself so she should enlarge it? Did he not know it wasn't big before they got married so why make such an expensive joke now?

She can let it go but she should not forget it. Once a man starts wishing, he starts wanting.

You sef see am?

Oga wants a big breasted lady but let "marry lady with character" confused him into marrying this lady. Now that marriage love has finished, his eyes haff cleared and he now saw that he should have stuck with physical beauty over intellectual beauty.

If the woman wants to joke too, she should tell him she wishes his preek was longer than her ex grin grin so we can see how he'll react to it.

she is not over reacting.Its very understandable when a woman starts getting insecured when her better half is the one doing the bashing even if he claimed its a joke.Maybe if she started adding excess weight and the man starts telling her i might understand that one based on the fact when he meet the woman she wasnt fat.But when he met her she had small boobs so why using that as a point against her.e no make sense.Its like a man who married a woman with flat buttocks then he starts complaining that her ass is too flat.dat one make sense? cheesy
