Always say no, if a huge battle breaks out about something, just point out that "fat" is a totally opinionated word, it's completely abstract. If she thinks she is fat, ask why she doesn't do something about it.

good one if she catches you staring at another girl


you have to be quick about this one....say

"man honey she looks like a total slut...boy i'm glad you dress a lot better than her." then you can continue on staring as she points out all the so-called "negatives" of said hot girl.

Greg-

"Jeepers, creepers, where'd you get those crazy peepers? Jeepers, creepers, where'd you get those eyes?" I remember singing that song with 50 guys at the top of our lungs, all of us absolutely sh*tfaced, sitting on top of about eight motorhomes, late the night before the Long Beach Grand Prix about 20 years ago. God, were those fun times!

You guys miss the point, and some of the girls who ASK that question aren't even aware of what they are really looking for when they ask it.

OK, here's the skinny on the "Does this make me look fat?" question:

Either she's looking for reassurance and just wants you to tell her that she's beautiful

- or -

She might be asking the question honestly with no motive other than wanting your opinion (if I ask this question, I asked it because I want your opinion, regardless of the answer). If this is the case, you can answer it tactfully with an answer like "well, I think a different dress might be more flattering" or "I think I like the other dress better on you." Chances are, if she indeed isn't fishing for a compliment, she's on the fence on whether she wants to wear/buy/throw out said dress and is looking for your opinion to help push her one way or the other.

Come on guys, it's a tough question, but the answers are easy... it's all in how you package the answer!

If you're going to ask, you should be prepared for the answer. I would give my honest answer, and she would have no grounds to be upset if she weren't satisfied.
