Is weight an issue?

Which do you prefer? Skinny, thin, average, chubby, fat, overweight If you found a girl was fascinating but was fat, what would you do? Would it matter? Have you dated bigger women or men before?

I've dated 1 technically overweight women before, and for me yes, weight is an issue. First of all it's not exactly attractive to me...Then there's the whole issue of me generally being more health conscious than I'd like. The worst part though, is the constant emotional roller-coaster that comes with it. I mean at least once a week I'd have to comfort her and re-assure her that I wasn't going to break up with her over it, and that I wasn't cheating on her, and that I wouldn't cheat on her. It's not fun, and it gets emotionally tiring, which is why she broke up with me, because she was so insecure about her weight and looks and generally everything -.-...hell I tried several times to help her with a program to lose weight (only after she would complain to me about her weight issues) So yeah, I'm pretty much sticking to average-athletic these days, less drama...not that I didn't prefer athletic body types in the first place, but I've always tried to keep an open book, though over the years it's slowly been losing pages so to speak... So if I found a girl that I really liked, though was overweight, I'd probably do what I've done the past few years...friendzone 'em, hate to say it...but that's what I've done...

I'm sorry to hear that your past relationship was so tiring, was nice that you never did hurt her not so many other men are like that. I understand your reasoning with friend zoning bigger women but you shouldn't just them all by one bad experience, but if all they did was bitch about their weight, I understand that lol

Well, it's not like I'm comparing it to one experience of mine, I've been in a few other 'relationships' (not technically dating but pretty much the step before) with bigger women without actually dating them and it's generally the same story just with varying degrees of insecurity :[ I'm pretty sure it's me that makes them insecure >.>

oh, yeah I hate that women that just happen to be bigger feel so poorly about themselves, I think being bigger is being softer :D!

Well certainly not all feel insecure about their weight that's for sure, but like I said I think I'm done with it in general :l ...not to mention athletic girls have more *eh hem* stamina...

yeah that's actually why men go for skinnier girls in general, its the same with why they go with prettier girls (prettier girls have more estrogen which is good in childbirth or something) thinner girls ARE better in bed. usually xD. MANswers was an awesome show....why did they cancel it?

I think they had a contract for so many shows and the they couldn't work out a new one so the studio shut it down >.> but yeah...you're right about it being an awesome show xD And in my experience it's not really the weight that matters in bed >.> the more reserved and shy they are the more wild they are in the sheets, well with some exceptions <.<
