@Medium Thinker – Everybody is different and some women are fine dating bigger guys, but alot of women are bothered when a guy is overweight. Reality is that first impressions count in dating, as they do everywhere and people who are attractive on the outside do get more attention. Of course ultimately to marry someone you need to be attracted and respect the inside (middos, values, personality, ambition etc.), but both men and women need to see their spouse as attractive as a marriage is partially physical. Also consider that, in general people are more health conscious than they were in the past and if somebody has a very unhealthy lifestyle that can lead to bad health at a young age, if a potential partner looks unhealthy at 22, it could be scary to think of what will be in 20 years. In general it’s good to put your best foot forward in dating, some people can carry an extra 15 lbs. and look terrific and put together and they will be fine in dating. However, some people are overweight and look very sloppy and unhealthy. A dynamic overweight guy will have a totally different dating experience than a guy who’s overweight, sweaty and breathing heavy and can’t seem to keep his shirt tucked in. Just giving it to you straight, from a woman, who’s had lots of conversations about men and dating with other women Hope it helps.
