He Made His Ex Cry After She Tried Body-Shaming Both Him And His Girlfriend At An Engagement Party

Running into an ex is never fun, no matter where you are or what the circumstances are. Sometimes, these run-ins even end in disaster.
One man recently made his ex cry after snapping at her when she continued to make snide remarks about his current girlfriend at a party they were all coincidentally attending.
During his undergraduate years, he briefly dated a girl named Erin. After a few dates, he didn’t feel much of a romantic spark, and when he broke the news to Erin, she flipped out. After the breakup, she became extremely upset and would leave him angry voicemails and call him non-stop.
Since he finished undergrad, Erin’s emotional tirade eventually ended, and he is happily with a new girlfriend.
He and his girlfriend were recently invited to a mutual friend’s engagement party and found out just before attending that Erin would be there. Because it’s been years since their breakup, he figured things would be fine and that he wouldn’t have to worry about any drama.
Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case.
At the party, things were going well, and his girlfriend got along with everyone. Then, he ran into Erin. Erin immediately started making jabs at him, saying she almost didn’t recognize him with his “dad bod” and that his girlfriend was extremely thin.
“I asked Erin to please leave me alone for the night, and she just stomped away,” he recalled.
“I found my girlfriend, and we were hanging out and having fun until Erin came up to us. My girlfriend introduced herself politely before I could say something and complimented Erin’s nails.”

Despite his girlfriend’s friendly advances, Erin continued to make passive-aggressive remarks, telling her she “wishes” she could pull off the dress she was wearing but that it probably only worked for people with small chests.
He had enough of Erin’s behavior and didn’t want to risk her making his girlfriend feel worse, so he decided to sarcastically respond, “I think it’d be difficult to pull off for you in the waist area. If you want to know where we got this dress, I’d be happy to send you the link in a bigger size.”
Erin immediately broke down and walked away. While he was relieved to be rid of her, later that night, he found out from other guests that she left crying and said it was because he called her fat and “ruined” her night.
“My girlfriend told me Erin was projecting her insecurities onto us, and she wasn’t even mad; she was just sad for her,” he explained.
“I admit it was not the most mature move I’ve done.”
Was he too harsh with Erin, or did she deserve to be told off?
