Forever, What you say is not true. The last women I fell in love with was 4"11 and 229 lbs. So voting doesn't count, because maybe the picture is a bad picture. I also rated the naked or lingerie pictures very low also. I see you forgot to mention that. so put all the facts in before you take it out of context.

Danciepants No!!! because its not possible for me and if the woman can't except me for who I am, then shes not worth being with. If you don't want to be treated with respect then your not for me. Treating someone right doesn't mean you can't stand up for yourself. And I am no ones doormat.

My wife and I fell in love with each other before we ever saw a picture of one another... We met online years ago, when everything was still free and people were more honest...

She thinks of herself as slightly over weight... Do I care, No, and in my opinion, I will never meet anyone more Beautiful or Sexy than she... As soon as I get some Pics of her and me together Scanned, I will put one in my Profile...

Am I the perfect Male subject??? I don't think so, but does she, Absolutely...

Rocky, just so you'll know...you'll get a lot more responses when you take off the limitation that only people within 75 miles can contact you. :) C'mon, won't you travel a little bit for love? I would. So I'm guessin' whoever's for you might also.

Elisheva there is a good reaon why I put a 75 mile limit. I really can't afford to travel. If I could I would. 2 I hate long distance relationships, because you can't give a person a hug, when they need it, when they are far away. If you ever find yourself in Ottaw. You got a date.

There are very nice overweight ladies. So in reverse would you date the overweight lady? I just don't buy into the concept that unattractive people can't find dates. I think it more lies in self confidence or being too picky. If an overweight man sees a hot chick and then gets turned down he feels rejected. She probably spends alot of time in the gym and looking healthy and fit is a priority. Whether we want to admit this or not physical appearance plays a significant role in dating. Personality plays a significant role in long term relationships. Do your best to look the best that you can. It takes alot of work. You may never be GQ but thats where personality gives you that extra edge. But it may just be an overweight lady which might be Mrs. Right for you.

"Laws of attraction. Law #1 = physical attraction. I think you answered your own question here. I'm not saying it's impossible for someone who doesn't fit the attraction "norm" to find love. You just might have to work a little harder."

Laws of attraction, you know what I find paculiar is that I don't eat alot, thin, and there are STILL women who don't find me attractive physically.

I guess you eat right, go to the g ym, and still not have women be phy sically attracted to even thin men. lol

Rocky: I was just thinking you might get some insight to your own question if you look at your voting history. And FYI, it only shows the ones who you rank the highest. Lighten up.

I'm an old fashioned guy. I would like to ask the question why do women, not like receiving flowers on the first date anymore, or have doors held open for them. Why do women kill chivalry. Why do women mostly assume we want sex on the first date. Why do women run away from being treated with respect. Why ca't most women look on the inside of the person.

Firever laughter. My voting history has nothing do do with who I am. I see the voting as a joke, because a lot of the pictures are of models. And I would say that there might be two women that I would like to ask out. One was Asian and slightly overweight as well as the white woman. The voting thing is a joke to me and I can'y figure out how too look at my voting history.

Rocky444: Your voting history shows the type of women you are attracted to. It's not a bad thing, it's just your preference.

Dude if you are an overweight gentlemen then those are already two strikes against you.
The only time I go out with a BBW is when I NEED a booty call and that hasn't happened since I went to Brazil, thankfully. Overweight/BBW/A few extra pounds means that you are a ****ing fat ass and need to get off the damn computer ASAP.

One of my bestfriends is also overweight BUT he is by no means a gentleman and he is a KICKASS breakdancer. Think he has problems with women? Think again. LOSE THE GENTLEMAN. No chick likes to be asked if your 'pushing too hard' and if its alright to grab her ass. Like Nike says: Just DO IT.

Like BrazilLuver says: NICE GUYS FINISH LAST, DEAD LAST.

...i met a gal a couple of years ago....and she was real close to her dad....one day when i was visiting, she got a phone call from him....the love and respect that she had for her dad piqued my interest..(dad was divorced btw) well she showed me his pic...nice smile, nice eyes...and over300 lbs..........next thing ya know..dad was callin me.......and yeah we dated some but he was a long distance trucker an i am a local one...cuz of my daughters health problems..........but we remain friends..........and what impressed me the most about this man...was the rapport and love he had for his baby girl....i had never dated a guy that large but to my surprise......when i looked at this man...it was that large heart that held my gaze...

so the next time ya ask why women dont date large romantic men...........well some do......and it aint got nuthin to do with size.........aint nobody on here got any looks they are takin into the hereafter anyways................whats on the inside is what matters the most!

Your obesity shows a 1000 disrespectful acts to yourself and therefore by extention to her eventually. You dissed yourself man by eating the nuggets. I'm not saying if you're born that way or just not brad pitt or whatever. If you're whole and great inside it will show and she will love you. Just aim lower (do you like nice, romantic, short, overweight women?)

Women want trophy husbands and trophy lifestyles for their trophy kids. Have you tried making yourself the great guy that you are and just sending out good vibes..and hunting and fishing and baiting and switching and bobing and weaving and such....???

Women on this site aren't the ones you want to meet. Its like blind finding the blind ? heheheh (My uncle: stay off the internet they're all trannies...if you can't walk up to someone and talk to them or meet people off this thinhg..then..then....(think he said forget about it..or just stopped talking..WHEN MY FEAR goes away...then I'm a catch..FEAR IS NOT SEXY...dogs love to bite you when they smell it...**** cats...don't like fear or water.....stop being a drip?? hehehehh

pretend you're in bermuda and that in 100 years only the trees will know. Its a numbers game? CAll 1000 customers and get 100 sales? Men like sperm are in the millions. Theres only one good egg for you. Keep knocking on doors and asking to come in/ Dont listen to me man I'm the blabber - all my fears into words now..but there is no fear ... there is only LOVE

of myself and my career and my money and if rascal want to come along well thast up to them

Being attracted to someone entails alot of things...physical attraction (that person is cute in your eyes), personality, how they interact with people, sense of humor, how they communicate, common interests, common goals...A combination of all those things make you attracted to someone....I`d date a nice, romantic, overweight gentleman IF I WAS ATTRACTED TO HIM. You can`t help who your heart loves....redneckgirl133

Ok I am going to state something that will be really unpopular. I was with a man that I had no physical attraction to whatsoever. I fell in love with his brilliant mind. He wasn't grossly overweight: he had skinny arms, skinny legs, a big gut (not a six pack i used to say... but the whole keg) and a big butt. In short, he looked like E.T when he was naked. Anyway, we were together for quite a while. (almost 5 yrs) The problem with this relationship is that it was laid back (literally) and food centered. So when we met I was a little chubby: 130lbs for my 5ft. (over weight according to BMI) I was a student and working in a fast food restaurant where I would eat since it helped supplement my food income. By the time I finished with this lazy food centered relationship I found myself at a whopping 155lbs. I had never in my life been so FAT. So what happened? Well I took my appearance for granted because I took his for granted. Our sex life in the end, was quite mediocre because we were both so out of shape. Anyway, I lost the weight shortly after the end of this relationship and since I don't work in a fast food restaurant anymore, I went back to my pre-university weight. (115 for those who want to know) My first "relationship" after the weight loss was with a man who was in great shape. I have to say that the sex was WOW! So to conclude, for me an overweight man means I will a) let myself go because I will fall into his bad habits b) will have to settle for mediocre sex.

alive...I agree with you....If people let themselves go, it speaks to how they feel about themselves, and that can be catchy.....I like a fit man because I work hard on myself and want a man who feels the same way about his body and his health....Anyone can let themselves go...that`s easy but to keep in shape at my age requires effort...I just want someone who puts forth that effort also....And you are right, sex is better with a fit man...Just my opinion...redneckgirl133

Why won't Women Date Nice Romantic Overweight Gentlemen


For the same reason GUYS don't date Nice Romantic Overweight Ladies!
People go on looks! Also, the nail in your coffin is probably that you're overweight AND short (women tend to be able to get around size before they can get around HEIGHT, especially if they aren't short themselves).

I've been in the situation you're in, but I've learned to accept me and love me and hope that some guy some day will see that I'm a good person and worthy of love just like anyone else.

I've also learned to accept that fact that, as great as I am, I may be in for a lifetime alone, so in preparation for that, I try to get involved with other things that can occupy my time and mind. So people tell me I'm too young to have given up so easily, but having been this way the majority of my life, I feel that I've experienced a lot about people and I've made an informed decision.

Sorry I can't have a "rosier" response for you, but I'm just giving my opinion. I won't be like those contrite people that say "just lose weight" because I know it's NEVER as easy as it sounds. I hope you find a way to be happy, and I hope that one day you find the woman that's right for you.

Lets see I work ou at the Gym 3-5 times a week- Have tried so hard to lose weight. But in my case I think its genetic. I have lost 10lbs. since July and keep trying to lose more but seem to be stuck at 229lbs. So don't tell me I stay on the computer all day. So why don't you you find out first before you say something.
