#67 Breast obsessed boyfriend wants me to get impl

#67 Breast obsessed boyfriend wants me to get implants / Should I spend money on implants or therapy?

Dear Abby: My boyfriend is obsessed with large breasts and constantly "hints" that I should enlarge my 34Cs. Lately he has been coming home late and telling me that he's been working overtime, when I know for a fact that he's been hanging out with his ex-girlfriend, a stripper with 38DDs.

I love my boyfriend and don't want to lose him, but I'm not sure about enlargement. If it's the only way I can get him away from her, I guess I'll do it. What do you think Abby? NOT BUSTY ENOUGH IN PHILLY

DEAR NOT ENOUGH: Rather than enlarging your breasts to satisfy his obsession, you'd be better served to enlarge your circle of boyfriends.

Hi Not Enough: Let's begin with the fact that you can't lose him because you don't have him now. The relationship is all over but the drama.

You've got far more serious problems. You are in fact addicted to abuse. At some level there's a genius at work here because you are reaching out for help; you're simply confused about the source of your problems.

You're trying to hold on to a boy whom you don't inspire to be truthful, one who is stuck in sexist woman-demeaning behaviors—and, you're seriously thinking of further rewarding this behavior? Something is definitely wrong with this scenario.

Here's my advice. Get them enlarged and go through the drama of discovering that he was only part of your downward spiral, of doing whatever it takes to further upset your parents, to the point where you know for sure you need therapy. I say further because it's for certain he's not what your parents had in mind when you were a precious 5-year-old who would do anything to please them.

You might ask why would I advise you to alter your physical appearance for what most would agree is a relationship going nowhere. The answer is; because I believe it's also the advice you'd be automatically driven to take if your parents advised against both the implants and him. It's also because my sense tells me that's what you're going to do. Your question is a setup. Later when you've crashed and burned you'll use your "mistake" as proof of how screwed up your thinking is. You'll need to be able to say to him, with sincere victim eyes, "Look at all I've done for you. Why do you treat me this way?" I have the thought that you simply don't have the ability to walk away from the relationship. Your addiction to abuse, setting him up to lie to you, extends to self-mutilation.

I'd advise you to get therapy but part of your addiction is to take as many down with you as possible, to include making sure a therapist fails with you, and, ignoring a columnist's advice.

One downside of getting implants is that when your relationship with him is over you'll only be attractive to a small percentage of the available single men, those who have no problem with disproportionately large, bulging, hard, unnatural implants. Some might say that you'll only be attractive to those men for whom their first impression of a woman is as a sex object. You'll never be certain if they like you for who you are or for your breasts.

There are millions of men and, millions of women who are automatically put off by implants. It's not that they simply don't find them attractive, they find them repulsive; such thoughts withheld serve as barriers to communication.

A woman who isn't satisfied with the way she is, one who can't choose for things to be the way they are, has not addressed the fundamental cause of her dissatisfaction in life. Big fake boobs do not replace Dissatisfaction-Counseling, instead they cover up the fundamental problem. Worse yet, the woman must lie to herself for life, that they look better and that she feels better about herself. Underneath it all, in the quiet of her mind, she knows the truth, that she bought into the media's illusion of beauty. I suspect it foments an unconscious disrespect of men.

Women who come upon large breasts through surgery do not carry them totally naturally or comfortably (I use the word totally here for emphasis). They are forever playing catch up, trying to act comfortable and sexy with silicone pouches stuffed under their skin. A naturally endowed woman has had millions and millions of eyes looking at her breasts. Through this lifetime of experiences she has developed a natural way of carrying herself. A woman who comes upon large breasts late in life can't begin to amass the natural confidence that comes from carrying them for a lifetime. For life, thereafter, they are equally as self-conscious as they were when smaller-chested, and, they have far more thoughts and conversations about their breasts than do other women. Their breasts become conversation topics (often as objects of uncomplimentary gossip behind their back) sticking out like headlights on amusement park bumper-cars, they become the first thing another sees and unfortunately judges. Some men even look upon such a woman as pathetic. Most plastic surgeons don't have the integrity to insist upon a size smaller than what the woman says she wants. A perfect size is one that doesn't draw negative judgments or unhealthy envy. Silicone breasts are the ultimate control communication, they virtually force another to look at the breasts first rather than at the whole woman, her face, her beingness.

Women who spend money on breast implants also have a problem similar to those who buy expensive jewelry and tattoos, most are socially unconscious; they can't allow themselves to look a hungry or homeless person in the eyes except that they experience the inappropriateness of their priorities in life. Some find themselves hiding their diamond ring out of embarrassment in the presence of the needy, such is the guilt of ostentation. For believers the conversation at the Pearly gates might go something like, "H'm let's see, you had the choice between making sure everyone was fed or spending money on a diamond, a tattoo, and breast implants. Sorry, go back and try again." Expensive jewelry? Of course, once everyone is fed, has a home, and an education.

The value that comes from processing ones considerations about their body, through therapy/counseling, so that such things no longer run them, is by far the better, more relationship-healthy, investment.

A few more thoughts: Quite often men in a relationship with a woman with implants find themselves lying, continually reassuring the woman that she looks sexy. It's one of those lies that are hard to fess up to no matter how hard the woman presses for the truth. The truth is she knows they don't look normal, yet she is absolutely driven to eventually ask, "What do you think?" which is a setup. If a man told the truth it would devastate the woman. I.e. "Here's the truth. I know that when you look in the mirror they look nice to you but from my perspective they simply are not proportionate with your body. They make you look unnatural, that, and they don't feel like real breasts. The bulge is off-putting. It's impossible to hug you without my mind being temporarily distracted by the hard lumps. If I could wave a magic wand I would restore you. I realize now that it's you I love."

Great letter, I'm so very glad you wrote. Many will get value from reading it. Gabby

I 100% agree with Gabby on this one poster. If your boyfriend can't love you for who you are then you should go find someone better and leave that abusive relationship. Besides, everyone knows that 34c is plenty big enough for any guy. Stay classy and don't become trashy.

Hi gandolflundgren,

Thanks for your comments, however your post is suspect because of the promotional URL you added.

Any subscriber to these forums would know immediately that you abusively disregarded the "No URLs" admonishment you agreed to in the Forum Registration Agreements and therefore you and your endeavors are ripe for undesirable karma.

Consciously disregarding agreements so as to survive financially automatically puts you in a condition of out-integrity; this condition produces undesirable results, for you and yours and those who do business with you. You're playing with significant powerful variables here.

Most people don't go straight until they are forced to by circumstance, often it takes an accident, an illness, or or near death experience. Unfortunately a person who is out-integrity takes those around them with them on this ever downward-spiraling circle. Look around you and you'll see you in one of your relationships.

To clean up/restore your karma do The Clearing Process. One clearing per day for five days in a row.
