Does weight matter to you?

I am not attracted to obese guys. but if a guy has extra pounds, I dont see anyhing wrong with that.

I was always skinny growing up (made worse by the fact that im 6 feet+), and I was always self conciouse about my weight. Now I am working out more (since its easier to put on muscle than it is to put on fat with my metabolisem) to try to fill out a bit more. I am already seeing good changes in my first month back on working out after two years off, but I still feel self conciouse about if guys will be attracted to me. Never had much confidence about my self image, but I am starting to.

 

I'm falling in love with the personality a person has, not the body the person have.
As long as the person eats healty and don't sit on the ass 24/7 it's ok. xD

 

im overweight and i dont care at all! =] as long as im not obese im happy =] PS i wouldnt look right thin anyway lol

 

I feel the same way. It seems like most people go for the same thing looks wise.





I don't care if a guy is on the heavy side. I mean, I wouldn't want them to be morbidly obese or anything because that's really unhealthy.

When I was younger, I used to get picked on alot for being overweight, I still kind of suffer from the trauma of that and still have it in my mind that no one will find me attractive. Even though I have got taller and thinned out a bit, I still have it in my mind..

Besides I'm more into the personality a guy has and if they have a good sence of humor ect.

 

I am not attracted to fat people. I wouldn't have a relationship or meaningless sex with them. I don't see them any different as people, though.

As for my brother, lol... when he sees someone fat on tv he says its disgusting and stuff. He does all this healthy stuff... he hates when people don't take care of themselves.

 

There is a difference between being fat and not taking care of yourself though. I'm overweight, dosen't mean I don't take care of myself.

 

I know that this particular post is from a while ago, but I couldn't help but giggle at this. Did you perhaps mean "gently"?

 

I myself am classified as overweight but fortunately i don't look that overweight I personally don't like people who don't take care of their body and in turn people that are overweight and it is obvious they should be trying harder to be healthy.

This is only in terms of people i would date and such. My current BF is a little overweight but he takes care of himself and doesn't look that overweight so i am cool with it. That is really the only situation where weight is an issue for me. Otherwise i have no problem, it is just people i date. I do consider myself kind of shallow though sadly i just feel like i need to be physically attracted to someone to have a relationship with them.... which in all honesty i think is a little of a double standard because i don't think im all that attractive in the chest/stomach department.... But i have been trying to take care of my body, loose weight, and look better

 

this thread over all is very disheartening and depressing. it really is giving over the notion if your over weight your life suck, that you don't try to take care of yourself that your ugly and nobody wants you.

also I don't get the I don't mind over weight but not obese... if your overweight they say your obese unless we are going to measure to ounces now ....oh dear u way 2 grams too much for me.

as long as you don't have health problems then it shouldn't be an issue. sorry for a rant but it just seems people are so vain and personality really doesn't matter. if all people want is thin attractive dolls to shag with no brain then just buy a blow up one.

I sympathise a lot with John as the trauma people inflict on you for your size is disgraceful and it is still the only acceptable for prejudice in society.

anyway sorry again just hurts is all.

 

i really don't think i could be intimate with a fat person for the pure fact that i walked in on a family member watching "fat porn" needless to say im still scarred

 

a little overweight on the other hand i could deal with

 

As long as the person is physically and mentally healthy, being overweight isn't a big deal. There are more important factors than that.

Obese and really underweight people look pretty concerning, though. It does put me off, tbh

 

this

 

I'll be honest, I really am not attracted to fat people at all. It may be shallow, but I just don't like it.

 

honestly, if a person is obese, and just doesnt care, that is somewhat of a turnoff. If they can't care about their own health and life, then do I really want to be with someone who can't be bothered? now, if someone is obese, and actively works to improve their health, and lose weight, even if it is a hard struggle, that has built in respectablity.

 

I think some people look better with some weight, others don't. I won't lie, I'm generally more attracted to people in more typical weight ranges, but that's purely physical.
