I find this to be the ultimate defensive rejection response.

I could only laugh to myself after a long time friend who I started dating used it on me. This was all over the restaurant we ate at. Simply because we had two choices decided on one over the other and I later realised the other choice would have been better. Jokingly I said he should have dragged me in by my hair with duck tape over my mouth! Response - your loss

I find it funny as often it isn't at all a loss I could just go to the one where I live.

Anyone else been on the receiving end or used this when feeling hurt??

I haven't been on the receiving end but on the giving it end. That is how I feel and I express that to the other party - especially when they have blown me off for a very stupid reason ...

why are we so afraid to value ourselves out loud?

hell yes.....your loss....to every single ex who thought the grass was greener on the other side and found out it was artificial turf..


"Artificial turf" lol. I like that!

Absolutely nothing wrong with that at all, unless of course like in this situation, we will go out again at some point and probably end up at the nicer restaurant anyway-think he was just sulking a bit lol

could it have been in fun via sarcasm?

I will do that when I don't get my way....just to be funny. I'm not really sulking....it's like losing a challenge or a bet...."Your Loss!"

So true!! Never even thought of it that way.

That's why I like coming on here ? Sometimes hard to see it a different way to your own

@firstdecantaurianwomen0428 haha!! I love that! Never even thought of it like that.

Just assumed he meant my loss that I didn't get to the better restaurant. Didn't think he would take it so personally it's only food!
Sounds more like he was simply saying "oh well, you wanted to go to the restaurant you choose and missed out on the other," a perfect opportunity cost scenario. Seems to me like you're taking it personally considering you are the one deciphering it all on a message board AND no break up occurred just a disappointing meal at a disappointing restaurant.

Seems like a lot of pondering over something so little.
