Hey Pard,
Just to let you know I agree with you 120%. I have lots of fat female friends but they don't get into my bed. I still respect them as a human being and friend. As for that gal who mention our John Henrys and demanded we put them on the site, I tried to post the photo but they say that it takes up to much storage space and won't accept. Love those slender gals when you can hit bottom not get lost in space.

Are we not a strange species ? Some of us don't want a few extra pounds and some of us want a few extra inches. Hang in there mysticalman I'm with you. See my last entry

The issue of TRUST is a strong point on this. How are you to trust us, you ask? Well lets be completely honest right now....
Would you see some of these pics on the site, and believe they are actually the person they say they are? Arent we all taking an extremem risk with this online dating thing? SERIOUSLY, we could be, anyone we want to be....It is very terrifing out here...BUT YES being honest is not always so easy for those people who have been rejected for their appearance....This online dating is a hope and a dream for most people who are lost, lonely and just needing some attention.....
I have been over many of the profiles on the site, I doubt many of the people are being as HONEST with us, or themselves.....Yes I am who I say I am, and YES the pictures on my profile are mine [why would I lie about that????] I am not afraid of being honest, I respect people who are honest with me....
I understand fear of rejection, I have it, as do most of us....BUT the truth is always best, be upfront with people about who you are, and what you are looking for....COMMON COURTESY.....
I hope you all [skinny, sexy, pretty, chubby, bald, ugly] find what it is you are looking for...

hey notlob63, arent you stretching the truth a bit in your profile about you being "athletic"? Looks like you are in my catagory "a few extra pounds". Just pointing that out since you dont invite your "fat female friends" in your bed, I dont think you have alot of room to talk, but i still respect you as a human being.





or maybe not.

Well, we all have opinions, if u consider me " a few pounds extra", perhaps so . I didn't mean I Arnold swartznegger but for 63 I'm not that bad. And I can still carry an overnight pack up the side of a mountain, spend the night with a slender woman and get back down next day. Can you maidendg? If so , wanna go up there some weekend ? Course you might have to carry me back down . if u can walk.

I never post anything to these, but I had to this time. I had a similar experience. The guy I met on here saw my picture, but I had not seen his. He told me he was good looking, and that people around him told him he was a good looking man. When we met, I thought I was in the wrong place! He was nothing like he described, and certainly not what I would consider good looking. And all this time I was worried he wouldn't care for my looks because I, too, am 'a few extra pounds'. I guess that just proves that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and that you should go into every situation with an open mind. (Especially if you are meeting someone whose picture you haven't seen, or are going on a blind date). Everyone has different perceptions of what is beautiful. Maybe you should rethink your expectations, mysticalman, because I bet you really liked her when it was just you and she and a computer screen, but when you met in person you couldn't think outside the box and see her for the person that attracted you in the first place.

Has anyone seen that cartoon where the skinny woman is looking in the mirror and sees a fat lady looking back, and next to her is a fat, slobby man looking in the mirror and seeing a really buff good looking guy? Something to think about on your search. Let's not get an overinflated sense of self.

There's a few threads going around about this subject, I got an idea - why doesn't everyone take out a measuring tape and measure every single part of their body - from your nose to your toes.

I do have a "type" of person that I am attracted to, but seriously the most "eye-pleasing" people can open their mouth and WOW how ugly they can become.

As far as people lying about their weight, I don't know. I see myself one way, others may see me differently. The words "average" or "a few extra pounds" are subjective.

Anyway, sorry to B***H.

Hi indigorose,
Glad to see you decided to participate. Many people like lying about their age and the reason I think they do that is because they don't really show their true age in their facial profiles such as you. You are a pretty woman, I didn't look up your profile, sorry I will later, but you could probably tell someone you are in your mid to late 30's and pull it off, as I said you are a very pretty woman.

Its a shame you don't live in the Montreal area or do you? Not only do you have a nice smile but you have a way with words, that makes you stand out from other people. Good for you.

Got a reply to any of this?

Nicola,
Oh baby you turn me on when u use such words as being crushed, really get a life. I'm not insecure in my wants and why should I settle for less in a woman than I want. You going to tell me that you'd date a 60 year old man, just because he said something in an email to you that lit a bulb in your head? Yeah right!!!

2 things:
1: People have different frames- heavier or lighter bones.
I have light bones (I know it for a fact because I've broken a bunch of them)
It makes me about 10 lbs lighter than normal. Even when I was working out
heavily and I looked real good, but could never get much over 140 at 5'9".
My friend M was 5'10" had a real large heavy bone frame and I was amazed to
find that he was like 210.

2. We are in America, the Fattest Country in the world. I translate
Thin Slim = really in shape.
Athletic = in shape but a bigger framed or athletic person who is aable to carry
the extra size without looking fat.
AVERAGE = because we are in America is 10-20 lbs overweight
A few extra lbs = Usually means fat but sometimes women are honest about it.
BBW = unbelieveably large

AND there are exceptions due to localized perception.
Some women whos ideal in their mind is Model thin may list themselve as
Average of a few lbs over and really they aren't carrying more than 6 lbs of
exra fat.
I have noticed that some women who obviuosly grew up in a family of really large BBW women, will list themselves as average- AND TO THEM THEY ARE because they are so much less fat than their peers and relative. But to most of us they would be considered
a few lbs overweight.
That's why I like to get a picture. Sometimes a woman has such a pretty face
that it easily over-rides a few extra lbs. Some women may not be really pretty,
but work out 5 times a week and have a body-to-die-for.
It all depends. People have their turn-ons and turn-offs.

Oh Boy did you say a mouthful!!!!
WHen you finally get to know a person and decide or feel
that you like them alot, them the differnces in them
become like "signatures" that to you- mean the person you like.
But even the prettiest person who you have found out is a lying, cheating,
no good, lowdown piece of filth- seeing their formerly beautiful face is like
seeing godzilla in your mind.

I agree with you that overweight women can be quite sexy, it's all how they dress. Some overweight women dress like they are wearing tents to hide the fact that indeed they are overweight, but in all honesty that makes them look even bigger, but this thread isn't about women and their particular weights, it's about telling the truth in letters to the new man in their life, before they meet.

Notlob63,
Thanks for the support man, these women are tearing the hell out of me. It's a good thing that they can't get ahold of me, I'd be in ruins by now, or squashed as one woman put it. Talking or creating a thread about women who aren't honest about their weight is a dangerous subject, I don't think I will venture in this direction for sometime to come.

hahaa i love how you take life so seriously mysticalman4U

its just a forum, i'll use the word "crushed" whether you like it or not!

besides i never told you to settle for less in a mate. i just said that it's probably best for you to move on and quit complaining.

Crushed, well that's not a problem for me, depends on who is crushing me and with what and as far a word choice, you feel free to use whatever words turn you on.

If people don't stop all the exaggerating I"m going to just give up. I went out with a guy who was morbidly obese. I"m not talking a 300lb guy either. It was like the word implies, "morbidly" . Very unhealthy. A guy who thought I wouldn't know the difference between 5'6 and 5'11 and another guy who was "all that" on the computer but in person he left a lot to be desired. I try to be as descriptive and honest as I can. After all, I do know they will be seeing me in real life. Why lie? It's just dumb.

Marshmella,
I guess we all have the same problem, both men and women and there is little we can do about it, except hope that the person who contacts us is true, not only to us, but to themselves as well.

Good luck in your search,

You know I went on my first date from a chick another board a month or so ago. While I was talking to her on the phone right before met her she made the comment "And I lied about my weight I'm much bigger than you think." I was pretty flaburgasted... Why lie? Just tell me the truth I might blow you off. If you lie well the trust is pretty much gone right away isn't it? Turns out she just wanted my reaction which was exactly what I said here. I'm 6'3" about 235 lbs now all you gotta do is look at my picture and there it is.....

If you plan on meeting me than just tell me the truth it will be helpful for both of us!... Just my thoughts.
