HELP

I'm having an argument with Colin. Bit of background first:
We have a 350Z sports car, as you guys know. I am beginning to find it a little difficult to get out of due to my changing centre of gravity and the fact it is a very low car and the doors are long.
So.
Today Colin commented to the new car salesman that "Emerald doesn't fit in the Z anymore". Well I'm sorry, but I (and I'm sure the salesman) took that as "Emerald's belly is too big to physically squeeze into the compartment of the Z" not "Emerald finds it difficult to get out of the Z". Colin insists that "not fitting in the Z" also applies to not being able to get out. I wholeheartedly disagreed as I heard "Emerald is a whale".
Ladies - do you think "not fitting" into something is the same as "no longer using that item as it is hard to get out of"? He's trying to pass it off as since I don't get in the Z due to it being hard to get out, that I "no longer fit". I hear "fit" and I think size.
Obviously, being this thread, you don't have to agree with me.

No, Em, I agree. "Can't fit" is a size thing. "Finds uncomfy" or "has a hard time getting out of" is "has a hard time getting out of".

He loses, he's a douche. Besides, he should REALLY REALLY know better than to argue semantics with the woman who can't get out of a car she loves because she's carrying his spawn. He owes you flowers and chocolate.

I agree with Lia, but being that he is a male he probably didnt think before he spoke and made a dumb decision.

He owes chocolate covered strawberries, a full body rub down to you, and a weekend of kissing your ass. kthx.

Ah. Yes. But the contrast is, I gave him a million opportunities to rescind said statement but he kept arguing for it. He's currently massaging my head, which is an ok start, but he has a long way to go (yep, he's reading as I write this...)

 

[ashiozz]

I discussed this with Mitch: He told me that sometimes when the word Fit is used, it means it doesnt "work" right for the situation, not just size, he used an example of his brother and his brothers wife not being a good "fit" .. This makes sense and I think it may have been how colin was thinking? Mitch also let me know he would have made sure to expand on that and NOT make me feel like a whale, but I wanted to give you the other side of it.

 

[Emerald87]

Oh Fuck, he's still going on and on and on and on... he will not listen!!!!

Colin: "You could say someone is not a good fit for a job and that has nothing to do with size"
Excuse me while I rip him a new one.................

 

[Emerald87]

Nup, he's not adding any "add ons" just "You don't fit Emerald" i.e. YOU'RE A FUCKING WHALE, LOOK AT YOU!!!

He told me not to get beached in the rain yesterday BTW...

 

[ashiozz]

**squeeze** I told you yesterday that at one point mitch told me I looked fat but its not fat just pregnant, right?

Im sorry he's being stupid, Men are stupid sometimes. I will have you know right now he doesn't see the same me I see.. and he keeps telling me Im really attractive still and he still finds me a turn on, so it does get better, I promise, I just think it takes getting used to for them =/

you're NOT a whale, you're a gorgeous girl who is carrying his spawn and he shouldn't see you as huge or fat, but as the bringer of life for his future child, and that in itself should make you MORE beautiful to him than before. =)

That's kind of how mitch told me he looked at pregnancy .. but it took a while to get there, and at one point he irritated me because he wouldnt keep his hands off of me.. lmao

 

[ashiozz]

I would just say: You hurt my feelings, what you said made me feel fat, and I think you should apologize for making me hurt, and then let it go =)

Then he should be super extra nice for a while and not insert his foot into his mouth.

 

[Emerald87]

I've had a yell and told him I feel like a whale. We're having a laugh about it and he still finds me very attractive (yes, the I feel like shit stop trying to grope me thing) and tells me I don't look like a whale when I say I feel like one.
I'm just trying to get through his thick skull that "fitting" refers to size when you're talking to a pregnant woman lol. He seems to accept that and will no longer be using that "term".

 

[Emerald87]

But I will be demanding full body massages and chocolate covered strawberries

 

[ashiozz]

Im glad thats solved now go get cuddled

 

[ashiozz]

I want chocolate covered strawberries now


no. Theyre bad. evil little monsters.

 

[Emerald87]

No cuddles (or special cuddles) for me. He's working (from home, but it's work none the less).

ok, about "fit". when referring to a tangible object you get inside, the word "fit" makes the sentence a size-related matter. the meaning changes when you startr talking about nin-tangible things, like relationships, jobs, locations, etc.

for example, i could say "that woman just doesn't fit in the city." but i couldn't say "that woman doesn't fit in the city taxi."

and that's my two cents on that.

rough night, first one since swaddling. only got a collective (nearly) 6 hours of sleep. the break in the middle was a bit over an hour. Des shit twice and pissed once. then i put him in his crib and he was amusing the piss out of himself! he was giggling and cooing like crazy. it would have been super cute, had it not been 3:30am.

finally he fell back asleep, and so did i, but he was up a couple hours later super upset. he had a big tummy ache it seems.

i think this sensitive formula is doing shit.

anyway hubs comes up to see frustrated me on the couch and asks if i want him to take des. i say, "no, but if you want to be useful you can clean the bottles." he is cleaning them now

 

[gigglebox]

p.s. jubilee = stripper's name made me LOL. literally.

 

[gigglebox]

oh and so did the comment about putting flower man at the end of the bottle cleaning request.

 

[Emerald87]

p.s. jubilee = stripper's name made me LOL. literally.

Glad I didn't offend you. Since I now have free reign it just really makes me think

*in husky tranny voice* "And tonight for your entertainment, I give you... Jubilee" *dirty porn music starts*
