If I dont lose weight, will I be single forever?


Question Posted Sunday March 25 2007, 9:39 pm

Okay so, I'm not extremley overweight but I am "chunky". I feel like the only reasons I've yet to find anyone is because I'm fat and ugly. I cant really change what I look like, I'm getting plastic surgery for my dark circles but my mom wont let me get anything else done. And as for my weight problem, I've been on diets and I lose 30 lbs just to gain it all back again. I'm 17/female and have never been kissed...it makes me laugh when I think of a guy ever wanting to be that close to me. I'm surrounded by 100 lb beautiful girls everywhere I go, do I have to just lose the weight if I ever want to be happy?

absolutely not! being comfortable in your own skin and loving yourself will make you feel SO SO much better. a truly good guy will love you for who you are..and im sure youre an amazing person..if you stop thinking negative thoughts about yourself and realize youre beautiful i promise you you will be alot happier. inner beauty accounts for so much more and when the right guy comes along youll know it and trust me..he'll always be wanting to be close to you.guys would much rather prefer a girl who has confidence in her body then some grossly skinny girl whos constantly fishing for compliments. just focus on what you like about yourself and try to steer away from critical thoughts..confidence is one of the most important things to have in life and i believe that everyone is beautiful. well i hope i helped

No, you don't!

I'm 19 years old. Until university, I had only ever dated one guy. I thought, like you, that guys only wanted pretty, skinny girls.

I weigh 185 pounds, and I'm a size 14. I used to be really self-conscious; I was always trying to lose weight so I could be like those other girls.

Then I moved away to university, and all of a sudden I was meeting guys who were interested in me for myself. They liked me even though I was (I thought) ugly and overweight.

I've been with my current boyfriend for six months now, and I'm really in love with him. He likes the way I look, even if it's not the standard.

Long story short, there's someone out there for everyone. Guys grow up a lot in the next couple years, you'll notice.

It's all in learning to rock the body you have. Next time you look in the mirror, don't think of the things you don't like... think of what you do like. I took comfort in my skin and eyes. Being confident in the body you have is more important than looking like Mischa Barton!

Just love who you are, and others will love you too. Good luck!

First and foremost if you wish to lose weight then you should do so for yourself, not for anyone else (including just to get guys to find you attractive), it makes a big difference when you are doing it for yourself. I also say this because if a guy will only like you for how you look on the outside then it's a guy who will never really appreciate you for who you are - just for what you look like. Don't think that you are ugly. I've known a lot of girls of all colours, sizes and ages and have never found any to be ugly. There have been some I have found attractive and others I have not found attractive but never ugly. You are not ugly either. As for the diets you are on, the secret is to maintain the diet. It is the biggest problem whenon a diet. Many people lose weight only to pile it back on again because they drifted back into their older habbits. Being depressed is also a cause of this so please try not to get yourself depressed. Honest to God truth, if it makes you feel any better, I had never had my first kiss until I was 23. :D So imagine how I had felt.
To answer your question, it would depend if you are unhappy with your weight then go on that diet (maybe even seek professional advice on dieting as it would help a great deal) and do it for yourself. But I don't think anyone has to be a 100lb girl just to be happy. I hope that I was some help.

no you dont have to lose weight to be happy! you just have to love yourself for who you are!! you might not think this but most guys dont want a skinny anorexic girl, they like girls who can eat. if a guy doesnt want to be with you just becuase of your weight, then hes not worth it because your already so much better then him! youll find a guy who wont care about your weight and who will love you for who you are, not what the scale says! <3
