Her Boyfriend Went Around Telling His Friends That She’s The Ugliest Girl Ever And He Only Started Dating Her As A Placeholder
A woman in her early 20s says that she wasn’t too attractive in her earlier years, and back when she was a kid, she was severely overweight.
By the time she hit 20-years-old though, she was in the middle of getting healthier, and that’s when she met her current boyfriend.
Since she has been with her boyfriend, she has lost a whopping 70 pounds and has made major strides toward achieving the body of her dreams.
All of her hard work has left her feeling really good about herself and her achievements…up until her boyfriend’s friend revealed some terrible truths to her.
Pretty recently, she and her boyfriend threw a graduation party for one of her boyfriend’s good friends.
This particular friend gets pretty rowdy when he has liquid courage, but she never expected the party to go as sideways as it did.
That evening, her boyfriend’s friend thanked her for putting the effort into throwing him that party, and then he turned things toward how shocked he was that she and her boyfriend were still dating.
Apparently, her boyfriend had gone around telling his friends that she was extremely ugly, and all of his friends held the same sentiments.
Her boyfriend did let his friends know that he was pretty much only into her curves, hated her face, and couldn’t really see his spending his life with her at all.

Her boyfriend heartbreakingly enough told his friends he liked to think of her “with a paper bag” on her head and that he always felt that he was missing out on dating women he found attractive.
Unsure how to even respond to all of this, she walked off to leave the party and cry all alone where their guests couldn’t see her emotions out on display.
While she was gone, her boyfriend had sent her tons of text messages and tried calling her too. She did return to the party after taking a leave of absence of a few hours, and her boyfriend quickly tried to address the situation at hand, yet she told him it wasn’t time to have that discussion.
Later on, she did sit down to speak to her boyfriend about what his friend had said, and he didn’t try to deny anything.
He fully owned up to all of the alarming and soul-shattering things that he said, but he insisted that those previous comments didn’t reflect his current feelings for her.
He told her that he’s in love with her and wants to marry her too as soon as they are in a better position with money.
Her boyfriend began crying and brushing off his comments on her looks as something he only said because he was young and foolish back then.
She didn’t break up with him on the spot, but she did take a couple of days to herself to work through all of this.
“I feel incredibly ugly, and my self-esteem has shot down,” she explained. “I’m in my early twenties, and just feel like I shouldn’t pursue things further with someone who said all these horrible things about me, and thought I was the ugliest thing on the earth for our first year and half of the relationship.”
What makes her feel even more upset about all of this is that many guys were seriously interested in her back when she was her heaviest, and prior to her getting involved with her boyfriend.
Presumably, if she had chosen a different guy to date than her current boyfriend, she would have been valued and appreciated all along.
To put so much hard work into yourself while someone you love goes around tearing you down behind your back is just awful.
“I never try to see myself in a negative light, but it hurts being told that he had told others that I was the ugliest thing he had ever seen and was using me as a placeholder,” she added.
She’s no stranger to being called “fat” and “ugly”; it’s something she was called for 19 long years.
She has been dating her boyfriend for 3 years, and for half of the time she’s been with him, he has said so many things to tear her down and make her feel worthless.
Does he deserve a second chance with her, or should she take this as her sign to leave him behind?
