I have gained 25 kilos the last 8 years due to menopause. It is a burden on myself. Even worse is how my husband behaves. For me it is slowly but surely turning into a kind of bullying. Last weeks we went shopping. I used to love going to the city with him. Now I don't want to anymore and I'm actually starting to dread it. He insisted on it. He needed a new suit for his work and since I have good taste, he wanted me to be there.
Until then it was still going well. I should pick out a new pair of jeans again. He loves women with a bubble butt in jeans. It ended in disaster. Wrinkles formed on my stomach. He grumbled at me in front of everyone that I had just gotten fat and that I would only fit into a Walle dress. Afterwards, I went back into the booth and I still saw out of the corner of my eye how he adored a young woman in an estimated size 36. She was wearing the brand of jeans I used to love to wear. On the street, after I went to get a cheese eye stick at the bakery, he yelled at me to stop eating. He said I had just gotten fat. He was so angry and I am now afraid that it will escalate more and more soon. In front of friends and in the supermarket, his loud hostility against me is piling up. It no longer has anything to do with the saying: "What loves, teases each other".
