| Why won't Women Date Nice Romantic Overweight Gentlemen Posted: 4/17/2005 11:35:24 AM | I have dated a nice overweight romantic woman util she started playing head games and she put in a situation, where I had to walk away without saying a thing. It hurt to walk away, because I lobved her. But my sanity and self-respect was more important. I would date an over weight romantic woman, who could appreciate the romance that I would give her.  | |

| Why won't Women Date Nice Romantic Overweight Gentlemen Posted: 4/17/2005 2:02:34 PM | WOW...the stereotypes some of you people have are amazing....to think in my delusional state I thought that typecasting "fat" people was passe....perhaps I should peer out from under this rock more often.
As for the comments about overweight people not caring about their appearances or being lazy or less active....for some perhaps this is the case....but certainly not for all....I have struggled with weight related issues all my life but this has never stopped me from living a very happy, active and productive social life.....I am more active than most slim people I know.....go figure!....I work out 4 times a week, participate is recreational sports and strive to remain active.....because I'm still overweight should I be classed as lazy???....or not taking pride in my appearance????
I believe attractiveness comes from within....I know a lot of people, both men and women who come in very beautiful wrappings but once you open the package they are very ugly inside.....exuding confidence is a very attractive characteristic regardless of what size you are.
Rocky perhaps you need to stop looking at yourself as a self proclaimed short, overweight gentleman and focus more on the positive traits you have to offer....I'm sure you will have great success in time....someone will see you one day for who you truly are and it will be worth the wait.....Good luck in your search! | |

| Why won't Women Date Nice Romantic Overweight Gentlemen Posted: 4/17/2005 4:22:46 PM | Crimsoncap I wouldn't have put romantic if I was confident in myself. I was just being honest about myself hoping someone would find my inner beauty and kindness. Like you I have met some 10's on the outside but if you added there personality they would be a negative 4. You seem lile a beautiful, intelligent woman.  | |

| Why won't Women Date Nice Romantic Overweight Gentlemen Posted: 4/18/2005 5:36:22 AM | | It is clear that some people were offended at remarks that some of us have made pointing out that overweight people tended to be food centered and inactive. Well, even if you go to the gym 8 hrs a week, you also have to watch what you put into your mouth. Sorry, that's just the way it is. Ever think of preparing a nice leafy salad for lunch instead of whatever it is you normally have? In my lifestyle I go by the recommended 5 to 10 fruits and veggies per day. Actually, fruits and vegetables make up the bulk of my diet. I hate watching portions so I just prefer eating that overflowing plate of steamed broccoli, salad, or whatever else. So again, my lifestyle would not match with that of an overweight man. It's too easy letting yourself get into "bad" eating habits because it tastes sooooo good! | |

| Why won't Women Date Nice Romantic Overweight Gentlemen Posted: 4/18/2005 9:11:41 AM | aliveinndg: you are absolutely correct about the fruits n veggie thing. I was eating things in small portions and couldn't figure out why I wasn't losing. Then I found out that just half a muffin was a whopping 500 calories! YIKES ! Also, the ranch chicken salad at McDonald's was the same as eating a Big Mac. Holy crappage! No wonder I was stuck.
Rocky: I'm thinking that being overweight isn't the reason you aren't getting dates. You are not conducting yourself as the "nice gentleman" you claim to be. People came to this thread to help you, and you keep making defensive remarks. Sorry to be so blunt, but it seems you need a lil knot in your reality tail. | |

| Why won't Women Date Nice Romantic Overweight Gentlemen Posted: 4/18/2005 10:08:46 PM | Actually I am a very nice romantic person in person-writing on a thread is a form of discussion not dating. These are two different things in a persons personality. I try very hard to be nice and straight forward so people understand what I'm saying. What happens if a person has a Throid problem and can't lose weight. I have been husky all my life. I have tried to get smaller and it is very hard to do that for some people Forever Laughter. You seem to be judging me on my thread, which can't give you the whole me.  | |

| Why won't Women Date Nice Romantic Overweight Gentlemen Posted: 4/18/2005 11:36:13 PM | So you can be nice in person but can't be nice in forums? What's up with that Rocky? Lighten up. You can voice your opinions without attacting people. You never know who might be interested in you and then checks your posts and sees how you communicate with people. Think about it. | |

| Why won't Women Date Nice Romantic Overweight Gentlemen Posted: 4/18/2005 11:47:56 PM | Hey Rocky. I know you asked for females to answer, and no I don't fit the profile, but I do fit the profile of growing up fairly outcasted, quite a bit due to weighing 315 pounds by 9th grade, and I also know that when a person is psychologically beat down because of something they cannot control they have a very hard time maintaining a realistic level of self-confidence. As long as you have low self confidence, women are going to walk right through you. Because you see yourself as an inferior being, to the men that look better then you *stereotypically*, you believe you have no chance. And if you don't look at women as though you have any chance, and you are constantly hiding yourself from the idea and opportunity to jump at one, then how on Earth is one supposed to know when you have interest? Take it from experience, the less like something they have to 'teach' to have self confidence you are, the more likely they are to respond to you. I mean heck, most women in this world are looking for the exact same thing you are. Somebody to relate to, and dump a gang load of problems on. Only to give the assistance it takes to work their problems out, and say "I love you" the next morning. Good luck. | |

| Why won't Women Date Nice Romantic Overweight Gentlemen Posted: 4/19/2005 12:00:20 AM | People give all types of bullsh!t excuses like "looks don't matter, it's what's on the inside that counts" In reality people are shallow a55holes and are afraid to admit it. If I were you I wouldn't dwell on this issue to much, you will find a true love, and when you do, none of this will matter.  | |

| Why won't Women Date Nice Romantic Overweight Gentlemen Posted: 4/19/2005 12:01:03 AM | Well forever laughter if they can't accept me for who I am. and I have only attacked people who have attacked me. Like KJ who constantly tries to change what I say. Or other people saying I'm over weight because of the way I eat. Weight also can be a genetic fator. I have the right to defend myself and be honest How I feel. If a person can't take honesty, then I don't want them as a friend. I respect your straight forwardness and honesty and I think you would make a good friend.  | |
