So back story: me and my best friend have been besties for over 2 years and we are the kind that nap together, eat together, share clothes all that. Anyway, we both are a little over 5 feet tall and at the time we met both were roughly 125 pounds. So we were skinny and went out a lot and wore skimpy clothes etc.

FF to the past 5-6 months. We both (at the same time) began gaining weight. Out of nowhere, rapidly. So NOW we both are around 160 and I am in large shirts and size 10-12 pants. Okay? I’ve accepted it. I don’t mind being in large clothes. But here’s the problem… she DOES mind being a large. She still wears her size small clothes, underwear, bras that don’t clip shut. If you are thinking “is it that bad?” YES. It’s that bad. She is in such DEEP denial that she’s “fat” — I prefer “juicy”, that she literally embarrassed me at my 6 year olds football game last week because she came to this CHILDREN’S FOOTBALL GAME in a size SMALL black cocktail dress, expecting positive attention?? Idk. So anyway TODAY, she texted me and asked if I would sell her my retired rave outfits (raves were in my skinny days so they’re all small and XS) and I told her no! That she would look ridiculous! And she says I’m being mean… I told her that mean and realistic are not the same. She disagrees and is mad at me. AM I THE ASSHOLE???
