Poor Jim, He tries to say things that will make me feel better, but it seems that he has a case of foot in mouth-itis. And instead of stopping when he realizes it (or maybe he just never realizes it) he just keeps on goin'. Really, it makes sense that he would say the wrong thing some of the time. It is ALL we can think about these days so whenever he thinks up something (warped as it may be) he shares, hoping to make me feel better.
So yes, while discussing the fact that I am going to have a boob chopped off, he thinks 'Well, then you will get an implant on the other side, AND a brand new boob. THAT will probably boost your self esteem' Are you kidding me???? No part of this 'journey' is going to boost my self esteem. Much to his dismay, it is one part of my body I have always been comfortable and happy with. Having plastic and saline shoved into my sewn together body is NOT going to make me feel better about myself.
Then, last night he tried to tell me that even when he did want me to get a boob job, that really he just hoped they would be 'perkier' and more youthful. But that he decided that mine were okay enough- because after all they were boobs, which is pretty cool, even if they were droopy boobs (sometimes I think he just isn't listening to himself- NOT the right time to say this shit, Jim!!!) But he is looking forward to 20 year old boobs again..... oy! yea, we will see about that. I bet my freaky new fake body parts are going to look nothing like normal, and certainly not 'fun'. well, except for the glow in the dark fake nipples, that part could still be fun.
Ah, husbands. :) At least he's trying to talk to you about things.
ReplyDeleteI had perky for a little while afterwards, but unfortunately it didn't last. Your body will be different. You adjust. :)
Have you thought about the reconstruction where they take tummy fat and move it up to make a breast? Just what you need, more options to think about, right? ;)
I have been looking into that a bit- but I am not sure I want to have cuts ALL OVER my body! Sounds so painful. But- I am still researching all of that-natural does sound much better. Hopefully I will figure that part out soon. I know I definately have enough fat to move over ;)
