“This Doesn't Add Up": Woman Claps Back At Haters Who Don't Get How She Can Have A "Handsome" And "Physically Fit" Husband

I was single for 10 years. Learned to love myself for who I am and had a whole different mindset when I met my current partner than I did when I was younger. This time I knew I was fine on my own and didn't need him to complete my life in any way, so there is no emotional nonsense, no jealousy or trying desperately to be something I think he wants me to be. This is me, take it or leave it. Love yourself first. A relationship is supposed to be an addition to your life, not something to complete it.

“This Doesn't Add Up": Woman Claps Back At Haters Who Don't Get How She Can Have A "Handsome" And "Physically Fit" Husband

My niece has always been overweight, and every single boyfriend she has ever had has been in shape, extremely good looking men. Including her current. She is a beautiful, smart, sassy curvy woman! In her younger years she had lost a lot of weight and to be honest, she just didn’t look healthy. She wasn’t. She was almost hospitalized. I am glad she got past the negative self body image of a young girl and now loves the skin she’s in! Rock on!

Yes! I met my man in chatroom, and then in life. If I would have gone purely for looks then the night we met it was late midnight, in a small town without proper street lights, I saw this tall figure dressed in all black I nearly turned around. I reminded myself that I offered to meet him and best decision ever. Over the years we have grown together and blossomed, but when I met him he was tall, skinny, bold, and looked like he had done time. I'm glad I didn't go for looks, but for the ability to talk without being judged and making me laugh. Years passed he is gorgeous, before I was asked why him, now he gets asked why her?. And in all honesty I'm grateful every day I get to share with him, and thankful he doesn't judge or compare me to others. Looks don't make you feel loved, safe and understood. It's the sharing the life experiences and supporting each other through good and bad times without judgment and manipulation

“This Doesn't Add Up": Woman Claps Back At Haters Who Don't Get How She Can Have A "Handsome" And "Physically Fit" Husband

This post gave me goosebumps! It's the same way with my husband and I! He goes to the gym 4 times a week and is physically active at work. I've had 3 children and am overweight. We've been together for 20 years and our love continues to get deeper. I had a co-worker pull me aside one day, after meeting my husband, and told me "I thought your husband would be bigger". What does that even mean????

30 Common Cooking Mistakes That Amateurs Make That Annoy These Chefs

I think this should be clarified to say baking cakes. Pastry should always use chilled ingredients

This is true. But also, if they're the regular grocery store tomatoes, they don't have much flavor to lose. They're bred for transportation, not for flavor.

When you squish the burger you are squeezing all of the juices out and the meat becomes drier

Make sure you have good ingredients. That box of baking soda from 5 years ago is not going to work that well anymore.

Pastry Chef here. USE GODDAMN SCALES. It's sO much easier and you won't lose count of how many cups of flour you've added Plus measuring by volume with dry ingredients can be so inconsistent due to different scooping styles, a more aerated flour etc Don't come running to me asking what happened with your baked goods when you've been measuring using cups

All that brown stuff on your pan after you brown some meat or veggies? Use it! That's called fond - it's f*****g amazing and will make your sauces have way more depth. You can easily get it off the bottom of the pan with a little wine, which is called "deglazing."
