As you mature and start thinking about a relationship in the longer term (or like me you're old n desperate Wink )looks count less because lets face it, good tits are only going to last til you're about 30. A good personality will last forever.


Yes, and great tits only last until you are 24.

Personalities can, however, change over time.

I've been both fat and fit, and personally you cant beat being slim and fit. Gives you a whole different outlook on life. Gets harder as you go into your forties though, as you lose your natural fitness.

Maybe some people are comfortable with being large, but I suspect, and its my experience, most fat people deep down want to be slim and fit.



Deep down not sure personality matters over looks. Personality has to be linked with looks, but not sure looks has to be linked with personality. Especially not on the net anyway, as is my experience.

I think women tend to find fit people more attractive and "right" because as humans we look for someone who is healthy and can provide for children.

I personlly don't mind someone who is fat but obese isn't attractive. If someone isn't looking after their health it's just not attractive


Just re-read this again. I'm not one to blow my own trumpet, but I know from reactions on this site and others that I come across as attractive. Yet I am obese.

I think when the average person uses this term they're thinking of men/women where the fat sags and looks incredibly unhealthy. It doesn't matter how you explain your size away, obese is a weight that is a danger to your health, not whether or not you look like the Michelin man. The word itself carries such a stigma. It portrays someone grossly overweight and ugly (no, I know that being obese doesn't make you ugly, it's what the word does to peoples imaginations).

So, guys especially seeing as I'm a woman, would you date someone like me if you saw the word obese in my profile? And try to forget you know me in answering this!

Very good lads, but that doesn't answer the question...

if you saw the word obese on my profile before you knew me, would you take the time to get to know me?

Being ruthlessly honest: maybe, but not in a romantic capacity

Most certainly. From what i have experienced over the years, i would put personality and trust in the forfront when i am looking for a partner, which i am now doing, trying, lol.
After my separation, i moved away and my employment these days means that the majority of the time i am sitting on my backside earning a wage, where before i was physically active. I have put on a fair bit of weight due to this, but i do say a big hello to my cross trainer parked in the garage every now and then. Maybe not as often as i would like, but hey,at the end of the day i am me.
