Question Posted Wednesday August 25 2010, 12:41 am
I have a friend to whome i am close to. He is one of my ultimate best friends and we talk on a regular basis. There has always been this "thing" between me and him and we both know its there. There is like a spark in the air but then again, we have NEVER kissed or anything . But we are so close mentally and emotionally.
He always talks abou what kind of girl he's gunna marry and how hell treat her. It just makes me think even more about how badly i want that life with him. They say that your husband is like your best friend. I think i do want my bestfriend to eventually become my husband. I have never really thought about is like that before but i legit think that we are almost perfect for eachother. And i do think that we could date very easily but I do beleive that the ONLY thing that is holding us back is me. My weight.Dont get it wrong he does love me but he also wants a "fitter " looking gf. And i honestly dont resent him for that. He is really into body building and fitness and he doesnt really judge me at all. I just have that gut feeling that that is what is holding him back from me. But me, i dont at ALL eat junk food. All my weight was put on when I was younger and now im just been kind of stuck with it for four years. For four years after i gradually began to eat healthier my weight still just kinda stayed the same. This summer i have been watching and kind of obsessing what i eat and i have lost about 15 pounds. All i drink is water and eat three times a day of mostly vegetables. But i dont only want to lose weight because i have this weird theory lol...but so i feel better about myself in general...im just getting sick of being fat.
anyway i guess i dont even really know what im asking i just kinda wonderr i guess what you think about all of this or just any advice. ...

If he really loves you and cares about you , he will accept you the way you are , beauty is just the outside , personality and feelings is what's on the inside that counts. If it's meant to be either way it will happen no matter what. If you want to lay that off , i'd say get some protein stuff , start working out daily , eat good , some junk food is good , uhm just cut down a bit , look up some stuff on the interent. I know just be good and be who you are in your own skin , don't think otherwise. My advice to you go out and strut your stuff and good luck with him and go out and daily excersise and why not with him let him tag along show him you care about your looks and yourself make yourself happy you know.
bigdogdaddy answered Wednesday August 25 2010, 8:59 pm: what a sweet letter...i hope you find a man to treat you as good as you deserve to be treated...first, as far as the this guy; ask him questions, sit down with him and say, " i really want to be more fit and look as good as you do, how do i do it?" thus, he will not freak if you say "i wan to be your future wife"...
secondly, start slow. make realalistic goals, that you can stick to and live with...start walking around block to build muscle coordination and get your stamina up...then add weights because that is the key to burning fat...
lastly but not leastly, low carb-high protien diet will teach your body to use stored fat as energy and not spike your blood sugar...

thats the key to a gd diet, Excercise!!! If he really does want a fitter body to get him going. go for it! it'll make you more confident about yourself as well so theres an ego booster in it. dont start thinking this a gd idea then sort of stop doing it after a while. if you want it fight for it ;D good luck sweet [ annon's advice column | Ask annon A Question ]

But if you want to lose weight so that he can turn from from a friend to a beau, you should think twice about that.
If your weight is the only thing keeping you two from getting together, that's not a very good reason to be apart. That also says that he has some pretty superficial values, if he can only like you in a certain size. And what happens if you gain any of it back - does he then stop loving you?
I think friendship is a great beginning to a romance since the two people know each other better when they get caught up in an emotional haze.
So, I encourage you to lose the weight for your health and well being, but if he's he prime motivator, think twice. [ bliz's advice column | Ask bliz A Question ]

The "One" will love every bit and peice of you for you and not try to change you in any way. [ Icanhelpyou123's advice column | Ask Icanhelpyou123 A Question ]
