* In the respect that it was horrific for you at the time, but in retrospect, you can aprechate a complete BURN! like that.

and it's amazingly attractive when they are. But Beth Ditto doesn't actually seem that happy to me. Plus she is irritating.
I had a size 16/18 friend who was absolutely amazing beyond belief. Her confidence and vibrancy meant people didn't even notice the weight. Beth Ditto doesn't have the same feel at all

for the sake of them is a bit useless. It's like students purposefully having a wacky time. It's so contrived.
Put it like this, the first thing I notice about Beth Ditto is her weight. If she was as comfortable as she'd like us to think, it wouldn't be her weight or at least that wouldn't be the main thing

I've known plenty of larger pretty girls, who are happy and confident and stuff.
However, as I have previously mentioned, the above beast is fugly, and seems to be a horrible character, and uses her "confidence" to get away with being a filthy cunt.

I'm sure we can all agree that women have the choice and the right to act how they see fit, which is great.

One, the first, was considerably 'bigger'. I remember walking her home from the club to our hotel in Faliraki, and noticing that I couldn't see the straps of her ankles because there was a fold of flab over them. My mates who I was on holiday with almost broke down the door while I was half way through. I had to pay for that door.

but in 03 I met up with a girl in London, we got on really very well. However, she spends some time up North and wanted somebody closer to home. Fair enough, I guess, but the manner in which she put it stuck in my mind.

Not a burn so much as mystifyingly clinical.

A couple of years ago, towards the end of a 5 year relationship. She mentioned that she fancied a mate of mine, dragged the damn thing out for a month or so, acting all confused and such - then the day before my yr 3 finals she ditched me cos she was shagging a different mate of mine. Then went on to lie to most of our mutual friends to try and get em all on her side. That wasn't much fun. Looking back on it, I'm honestly not sure wether she wanted to put me through hell, or wether she was just so self centred that she honestly didn't think about anyone else - if it's the first I can realy appreciate the level of devious thought that went into it.

With her at the local pub, it approaches midnight and I peek over the back of the bench to see where she is so I can line up a midnight fondle and she's chatting to a guy we know at the bar. She sees me looking and storms over to the table, accuses me of spying on her and shouts I've got nothing to be paranoid about, she's not seeing anyone else. This, in front of a packed pub just before midnight New Year's Eve. She keeps shouting and eventually dumps me and storms off back to the bar. With a tear in my eye I head for the door and one of the regulars winks at me and says 'She's shagging him, y'know' and nods at her and this guy she's with at the bar. I walk back to her place because that's where I'm staying the night and I'm crying and her mum makes me some hot chocolate and I cycle home. I only fell off twice.
