When Ashley Stevens was at her cousin’s wedding, she caught the bride’s bouquet of flowers. To share her joy, the 21-year-old took a picture of herself, her boyfriend Christopher Reed, and her dad making funny faces. She posted the photo on Facebook and a friend later sent it to Reddit. Within hours, Stevens and Reed were bombarded with hateful comments. Reed was body-shamed for his weight and his appearance. “People were saying she was too good-looking for me. Some comments said there was no way I could be her boyfriend and they made fun of my weight,” said Reed. The couple from Columbus, Georgia have been dating for two and a half years; they said they laughed at the comments despite how hateful they were. Nonetheless, Stevens posted a heartfelt [response][1] to all the negative comments about her relationship with her boyfriend. [1]: https://twitter.com/ash157stev/status/612842969339707392
