Funny, isn’t it, how the current system of resumes and qualifications before dating can work against us. Weight is not just a number. A girl with a few extra pounds who knows how to dress and stands tall and proud can be very attractive, but a checklist with a dress size will rule her out. My husband and I met when a mutual acquaintance saw two people she thought could relate and would like each other. We compared notes later, after we were engaged, and realized that we had a few more friends in common, but we didn’t match each other’s stated requirements, so they never put us together.
Anyway, I have seen many overweight girls get married to fine young men. You have the advantage here – you will find someone who is looking for more than just ‘arm candy’. (someone to show off)
