BM's low attacks

StepKat's picture

I've noticed a trend amongst several on here and that is the crazy BM's like to insult our looks. Mine BM does this all the time and it's hard for me to understand why a person would stoop to such pathetically low level. What?! Are we back in high school or something?!

You nailed it with pathetically low. In no way do looks reflect anything about a person. Let BM admire herself all day and see how far that gets her in life. The best part is that one day, just like the rest of us, whatever good looks she had will be LONG GONE. Sad way to live one's life, I agree notasm.

Thank you hun Smile It was more of a vent and expressing my views on it. I love my looks now and nothing BM can say will bring me down anymore

I do agree that is low for anyone to go after a person's looks (SM or BM). I grew up overweight and unattractive. I still have no fashion sense lol. I was bullied everyday growing up because I wasn't "pretty". Today, I know I'm beautiful and I love how I look. It took a very long time to improve my body image. I never insult a person based on looks, it's beneath me. So what do they gain from acting like a bully?

BTW: I know what BM says about me because my skids let it slip sometimes what they hear.

What's helped me to deal with BMs low attacks is to remember she's an insecure person with no life. She's never insulted my looks. I don't think she's so much as seen a picture of me. But she's dealt attacks on other things.

She is envious of you. She has so much time on her hands that she attacks you.

I was bullied for being skinny... I still am thinner than average, BM has made fun of my looks and weight. of course I happen to know that she has her own body image issues and is constantly dieting/ hating her body. So she makes fun of my weight, but strives to have it. haha!!! Whatever. she's gotta find something to hate me about, because it's hard to admit that I'm a better mother to skids than her, that skids adore me perhaps more than her, and that DH loves me more than he ever loved her. She blew it with him and lost her family, yet I have it all and do it way better than she ever could. So let her go ahead and make fun of me if it makes her feel better....

I think with most BM's (mine included) they have never mentaly left high school.

Our BM can be so mean sometimes... Like once (before I ddidn't do drop off/ pick ups) I was 6-7 mo pregnant, and BM had the nerve to tell me Iwas gaining weight... No sh!t lady.
So iI took it and threw it back, and said yeah, its expected whenyour carrying a child... So wwhat's your excuse... I know I shouldn't have stooped to her level, but the look on her face was priceless.

Needless to say I haven't had a problem with her talking like that to my face... Behind my back is another story. But haters love to hate, and as long as I'm happy with myself and my life I know that no matter how much smack she talks it kills her it doesn't get to me.

She just wants FDH and I to be as unhappy with our lives as she is with hers... Good luck BM, its gonna take a lot more than a few snotty comments. Smile

She's insecure and trying to make herself feel better.

Kind of like people who start a conversation saying they're so happy, or a great parent, or have a fantastic marriage .. like they're trying to convince you.

Maybe if she says these bad things about you, she thinks people will start to believe them, and like her more. It's sad.

BM has a lot of low attacks on me. She used to call me fat and ugly all the time (I was never fat nor ugly), but now that I've lost 40 pounds and am skinnier than she is, she says that it won't make me pretty on the outside and now I'm only skinny because I do heroin (nevermind that I've never touched an illegal drug a day in my life...). Sometimes it really hurts my feelings because I just want to be liked by everyone and I don't understand what I did to make her hate me so much and cause so many problems with my BF, but it is what it is and I try not to let her bother me. A lion does not concern itself with the opinions of sheep Smile

Oh, I didn't come up with it, so go ahead and steal away Smile I'm not sure where I first read it but it sure is powerful.

For some odd reason women just HAVE to put down the other woman's looks.

How many blog have we had here talking about awful BMs look? We hear about everything from weight to age.

Any time BM calls me a name~for example bitch, I laugh in her face and say "But I'm an employed BITCH"

low attacks?

mine is the queen of low attacks. when "skippy' her alter ego is in town, she will reach around until she finds whatever is closest to my heart and soul and proceed to hold it up for scorn, ridicule, and abuse.

good god, what am i doing still here?
