So, I've known my friend since 6th grade and now we are both roommates in college. Even before college, in high school, she constantly complained about being fat. She's 5ft 2in and weighs 105lbs. Do you thinks that's fat? Of course it isn't! I know her weight and height because she always talks about those things! She thinks her face is chubby and that she needs to lose more weight.

And then there's me, 5ft 4in 145lbs. I used to be a chubby kid in middle school and guys often said horrible names to me and girls sometimes made fun of me even my family made jokes about me being all chubby so I don't have the highest self-esteem out there. While she,on the other hand, attracted so many guys that at one point guys only talked to me to get to her. When she says things like "omg I'm so fat!" or "I need to lose 10lbs!". It makes me feel horrible! But I still try and tell her she looks fine the way she is but then the next day the whole cycle continues. How am I suppose to deal with this?
 
tell her the secret to lose weight
eat less and exercise more
 
Dear Haley Johnson,
This sounds very serious. If your friend is skinnier than you, then I think she has a problem. It's either she's a show-off or she is simply too conscious about her looks. If she's a show-off, this is what you can do:
When she says, "OMG, I'm so fat!" simply ignore her, or ask her to look at the number of boys looking at her admiringly. If she says, "Yeah, that's 'cause I'm too fat!" remind her of the word ADMIRINGLY. If she continues, just sigh, roll your eyes and say that she's NOT fat. If she still insists that she's fat, tell her to shut the f*ck up or else.
If she is conscious about her looks, this is what you can do:
Say, "C'mon, (whatever her name is)you aren't fat! I definitely weigh more than you." Make sure you weigh more than her, though. Hope my advice helped.
Regards,
Peace (No, that isn't my name!)
 
Girl, I KNOW how you feel. My brother lost a BUNCH of weight, and he still complains about feeling fat. Where, me, I'm 185 (I'm a guy) and he's COMPLAINING? I really just wanted to knock some sense into him. Anyway, she's just seeking attention, fishing for compliments as the other commenter said. Attention seekers are so sad.
