If "it's what's on the inside that matters" you wouldn't have a preference of a big man to a skinny one.

That doesn't mean I wouldn't go out with a skinny one if I like him.

thank goodness average and small guys like BBW's.....cause a LOT of big guys don't!


What is this I keep hearing about big guys not liking big women?? I admit that I don't speak for all big guys, but I simply ADORE big women, and I find it baffling when women insist otherwise.

well, i personally like all women, i don't let size get in the way at all, but i must admit that BBWs are more attractive to me since they look FAR more cuddily.

Since i am a Romantic, i love to cuddle, so being cuddily is fundimental, but is not a deal maker, in the end, all that matters is the fact that you got to have a nice heart, kind, caring, loving and a romantic....those are the required things i want in my special woman, being cuddily is just a VERY huge bonus. :)

Its a sad state the society is in today. People are starting to forget how to communicate..and how to love themselfs and others.

Its now a society based on looks, and social standing. Look at commercials today...flat sexy abs, nice car, nice home, the f#cking palm pilot with satelite uplink and oreange juice despenser.

The pool, the clothes that cost too much and end up wearing out within a month...relying on the government to pay for your life style.

People see that and they want it..because it looks like an ideal life. Then they show overweight people...what are they doing?

They picture them sitting on the couch with a bag of potato chips crying. I think its b#llshit...not because im overweight...because they make you feel bad for being you.

Bottom line....If somebody dosnt like you for who you are...they can f#ck off....if your happy with yourself...then you have got it.

Keep it real,

Rupret

^^^^ perhaps you will only date big guys because you are limited by what you can attract because you are not in good physical condition yourself, you're automatically assuming that just because a guy takes really good care of his physical appearance that he is stuck on himself, sounds like your bitter. As far as guys whining becaue they are big, tough sh*t, get off your ass and start eating healthy and exercising, even most so called athletic guys don't have a clue what they are doing when it comes to eating nutritious, all the information to eat
and exercise properly (hard) to get the body that you would like to have is out there. What most men and woman lack is the dicipline to achieve it, however they have no trouble finding excuses to skip going to the gym and making a healthy meal because exercise is just too hard and big macs are 2 for the price of 1 today.

I was about to post something snarky aimed at Victom too, but I see his account has been cancelled. Hm...that's a shame.

Anyway, back on topic: For years, I have believed that no women at all were attracted to heavy men, period. Thanks to the pop culture influences mentioned above, that thought still occurs to me, making me feel ashamed of who I am and how I look. (Oddly enough, that shame wasn't/isn't strong enough to make me want to get healthier.) But then, I got the internet hooked up, and now I see that there are actually women who might like the way I look. Now, for some reason, I want to get healthier; I've made an appointment with a consulting dietician for next week. Go figure.

One of my first serious relationships was with a bigger guy and his weight did become an issue, in fact that was why I broke up with him.

Before you go calling me selfish and superficial let me say this: the issue with his weight was he let it bother him. He would constantly call me and cry about how fat he was and would get mad if I asked him if he wanted some of my burger/fries/burrito/chips etc. Throught the relationship I always told him if he wanted to loose weight I would help him in any way I could even if it meant going to a thereapist with him or going on a diet with him or going to the gym with him even though I had a metabolism problem at the time and was severely underweight (which is why I ate burgers/fries etc.) Despite me telling him I would help him to feel better about himself in any way I could he never did anything about it and got even more depressed. I also had my own problems with weight at the time and couldn't deal with his issues and mine at the same time, it was too much for me.

Since then 90% of the guys I've dated have been on the heavy side, and I actually prefer them to super skinny guys. I think a guy should have some meat on his bones. But when it affects the relationship in a negative way and the guy doesn't want to do anything about it, it becomes a problem.

See, this is what I'm talking about. I USED to let it bother me, and I got nothing. NOW I'm (slowly) getting OK with it, and things are looking up.

Of course there is hope for everyone but please look a the last sentence YOU wrote...you are not seeing what's on the inside of some people...its not all sunshine and roses! I mean look at birthday girl. Question: Do you REALLY want a girl like that? I would think not.

So, maybe nature is helping you weed out the trash you wouldn't want anyway! Remember, if you are comfortable with you others will be too.

Good Luck!

yeah especially if you whine like a girl...
Man take this anyway you want but get confident and do something about it!!!
When I was tipping 300 lbs I was like no one likes me cause I am fat... you know what no one liked me cause I would not allow them to.
As I lost weight and we all can do it, I got more confident. Don't get me wrong I am not dating supermodels yet...but I have met some super people!!!! and a lot of that has to do with my outgoing personality.

So work on it don't get discouraged and take it from there
You don't like something about yourself change it, it is really up to you to change it

oh yeah and rock on

First of all I have to agree with the majority of responses on here. Being overweight can play a huge factor on your confidence level. Believe it or not I use to weigh over 370 pounds. And theres nothing like entering a classroom when no female in her right mind even want to sit near you, let alone carry on a conversation. "Frustration turns to tears, Tears to turn hatred, and hatred turns into motivation". I was single for 3 years straight, No sex, No Girlfriend, not even a single date for the majority of my stay in College. I've lost over 90 pounds since then, playing rugby, Running, and Improving my diet dramatically. And after 3 long years, I have started dating again. Have no illusions friend, this is a skinny man's game. He's going to get the girl a lot more often then we will. And yes, there are some wonderful women out there who like larger guys. But they are few and far between. I weigh 280 pounds now, And i don't plan on quiting any time soon. Because with every pound I lose it becomes easier and easier to meet girls. I'm not losing weight for personal health...

Large guys are BY FAR the best!!!! I love the teddy bear types, they're great to snuggle with and have plenty to offer, however one in particular that I've met on here, has used, and tossed me aside. But that doesn't mean they all do that. Bigger guys (from my experiences) have hearts of gold....not saying that any other guys don't, but...If you've never given a "bigger guy" a chance I suggest you do! He may be your "Mr. Right." YOU GUYS ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why, Thanks, KuteKat!! We know we're not #1, so we try harder!

But now, I must admit the awful truth: Like HarveyDent, MrPlayful and others, I too am interested in losing weight to improve my looks (and therefore my self-esteem and confidence), not just my health. I know, this confession is a spit in the eye, a stab in the back, and salt in the wounds of big guys who I've cheered on and am rooting for. But Guys, remember: I'm still on your side, just using new tactics.
