Six years ago, I couldn’t get a real date to save my life. I blamed nearly all of that on my size and used weight as a shield to deflect getting rejected. When you’re overweight, you come up with all kinds of reasons why dating sucks like, “Guys are such jerks! They won’t even LOOK at you if you’re not a size 2!” or my favorite, “Whatever, I just want a guy to value ME for ME, not for how I look.”
But let’s be real here, if you’re overweight and single, it can feel like there’s no hope in the world for finding a person that madly, truly, deeply loves YOU. Yes, even ALL of you. Dating while being overweight isn’t a death sentence to singles at all. Orginal post – Rachel O’h-Uiginn Estapa
