I am a 17 y/o male. My "love" is not talking to me because she wants someone taller and heavier than herself. I am 5'10", 130 lbs, and she is 5'9", 130 lbs. She feels that i must be heavier, not just the same weight. Since my weight is distributed throughout muscle, she is insecure. I have trouble gaining weight, so what should i do?
When are people going to learn that our imperfections are what makes us beautiful. If everyone were perfect, the world would be boring and annoying. [ christina's advice column | Ask christina A Question ]
thinkpink48 answered Monday April 2 2007, 12:06 pm: That's ridiculous. If she loves you, she will accept you for how tall you are and however much you weigh. Tell her to accept you for how you are, or you'll find someone else who will. That's stupid of her. [ thinkpink48's advice column | Ask thinkpink48 A Question ]
DrPlayer answered Monday April 2 2007, 8:22 am: From what I have read you are in pretty good shape so far. After all you are already an inch taller so that's one thing down. About weight that's the tricky one. Some people gain weight harder than others because their metabolism is so fast in burns off everything on contact. What you have to do is eat more than the body can burn off. Remember 3500 extra calories equals one pound. Try to eat lots of grains like bread and don't forget the protein. Working out with free weights also helps a lot. Try to aim for 1 to 2 pounds increases every week. Anything more would be unhealthy. Drink plenty of water too muscle is mostly water.

if she fails to realize this, then its not true love and you are wasting your time.

Do her one better and go out with someone else.
Seriously, this is ridiculous. I'd guess you can't gain to much or that wouldn't complete the picture either.
If she "loves" you, it will be regardless of how tall you are, how much you weight, what impression others have about you, or how you look as a couple.
Insecure? Nah, superficial. There are other girls out there. Tell this one to accept you for who you are or you will find someone who will. :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]
