Kassie, congrats on the new grand baby! I dont know if its normal for there to be dissatisfaction with weight. Like I said, I was physically active, so I certainly wasnt grossly obese, I was pleasantly plump I like to think! But he has always been unhappy with his weight, he has the body image of a 16 year old girl. He is in the military, and he is by no means overweight, and when he would complain about his weight I would always think, well, if your fat, whats that make me? It was just the one time that I yelled at him about it, but he had harped on me about my weight fairly often. He never even said that it was because he was worried for my health or anything respectable like that.
He thinks that my job is very interesting, he has told me that its the kind of thing that he would like to be doing. I think that its the work with the animals that he mostly gets excited about. When I was a lifeguard he would talk about the rescues I had made and how they werent as big of a deal as the ones he had made, he was on a search and rescue team in the coast guard at the time, that if he hadnt been there the people would have died, and at the pool, if I hadnt made the rescue, someone else would have. That really, really bothered me. I rescued a full grown man once, I actually sprained my shoulder doing it and still pulled a 46 y/o man out of the water! And H one upped me by telling me about friend of his giving CPR to a head injury victim.
So I guess that its kind of nice to finally have a job that he thinks is worthwhile. What a jerk! I hadnt thought of that stuff in years!
I think that he had his second thoughts and Im not sure where he stands now. But I remember what worked last time and Im trying to stick with that.
I guess I gave the wrong finger to the wrong man...
