AITA because my boyfriend says it’s a deal breaker that I hate myself and don’t like my body because he likes my body and his opinion is the only one that should matter and I think that’s actually awful of him??

Him saying his opinion is the only one that matters is odd, but you shouldn’t be in a relationship if you hate yourself, having insecurities if ok but you shouldn’t hate yourself. I wouldn’t date someone who hated themselves either because you should love yourself wholeheartedly before loving someone else

idk i get how he’s trying to encourage u to feel better but also it’s kinda selfish of him to not consider how deeply it’s effecting u ur allowed to have opinions esp about yourself he can’t control every aspect of a person down to their literal thoughts. that said i think it’d also important like #2 said to work on ur self confidence but ur bf isn’t really helping in ways that most partners would to lift the other up

it’s important to work on ur self-image and see urself in a batter light. my bf’s love for my body influenced me to have more love for my body. but for him to say his is the only opinion that matters is weird asf- ur body is UR body and thats possessive and huge red flag
