Ladies on a Diet Beware of mens lack of awareness
      #213820 - 06/10/2008 11:31

I am trying to lose weight and said to OH this morning, am I looking slimmer, he replied No good asking me I havent a clue.
Now my question is if I put on weight he tells me I'm looking a bit fuller round the waist, but when I lose weight, he hasnt got a clue!!!!

Typical Man Mrs Hinge, he's afraid he might get the answer wrong, so he's playing dumb!!

Well done by the way.

Aren't they hopeless Mrs Hinge, basically they haven't got a clue! My OH is a athlete, all be it an ageing one, but consequently he is very slim and fit, which always makes me feel big even if I'm not, he's totally without sympathy when I'm dieting, he thinks I should be out there running 7 miles three days a week like him! he doesn't notice if I am slimmer, I always have to ask and quite frankly I'm never satisfied with his answer! so my conclusion?......best not to ask!

Don't try to get him a job in the diplomatic service, the answer to the question is always, 'Yes, you are a bit'. Even if he hasn't a clue.

When I have talked for an hour I feel lousy-
Not so when I have danced for an hour;
The dancers inherit the party
While the talkers wear themselves out and
Sit in corners, alone, and glower.

Mine has been complimenting me on losing weight, BUT he keeps sabotaging my efforts by buying me sweet treats. It's starting to get on my nerves. I expect he thinks he's being kind.
