  First off, I'm married, but, as owner of this site, I've made a few observations. It's not just overweight people, it's older people, not very attractive people... and it isn't 100% of them, but it is some of them...

What is it? Well, it's that these folks delete their accounts and/or complain that they aren't getting any responses from anyone. Out of curiosity, I go look at their profile, and they fit into one or several of the above categories. Then I go look at their outgoing mailbox to see who they've been sending mail to. And lo and behold, they are sending mail to the fashion models (look like them anyway, and not the skinny, anorexic looking ones, you know what I mean) and/or body-builders on this site!

Now, granted, it would be great if all of us could have a fashion model as a life's partner, but then, that would mean many of the fashion models of the world would not get a fashion model looking person. It is impossible for everyone to get a fashion model, because everyone is not a fashion model.

I simply don't understand why an old man, who is unattractive, bald, and obese, would write only women half his age who are the picture of perfection, and complain that he gets no responses. I think people should look for a mate among those that are of their own league. Look among those who evidentally share your lifestyle - you don't exercise and do overeat, then why do you want someone who takes care of themselves and likes outdoor activities? If you're in your 40's and up, why do you want someone in their 20's? You're their Dad's/Mom's age! Wouldn't you be happier with someone that you don't have to fret over leaving you for someone better looking or younger? If you're an old man and find a young woman, I would be very surprised if she didn't take you simply for your money (or a trip to the U.S.) - especially if you're homely as well! Use common sense!

I don't mean to offend anyone, and I hope I don't come across as crass. But I do feel that some people want the best without being willing to give their best.

I don't get the men who want someone half their age. I don't get the heavyset people looking for a model or body-builder. If you feel that people should accept you because of your heart of gold, can't you accept those like you that also have a heart of gold? There's too much of the 'I want the best for me' among people who aren't even in the same league as those they are looking for.

Yep, I'm sure I'm gonna hear it from some. But there are plenty of overweight people of both genders, and if they'd look for one another, then we wouldn't have the complaints that no one is willing to meet them. Same with ages, lack of physical beauty, or whatever.

And yes, I do realize there are heavy-set, etc., people willing to meet anyone of a Christian spirit, but the problem is with those anyone's out there looking for someone half their age and body-size. (But then again, that should tell you something about that person... are they really who you want to meet? Probably not.)

  Ladies,
If you are trying to lose weight, please do it for yourself. One thing that I know God loves us and we should love ourselves. We must love ourselves no matter what size we are. I have been in the best of both worlds.I would chose to be slighty heavy, because then your body is not the atraction but your heart.Any one can wrap a pretty package. Technology today will allowed us to look any way we choose. After all we can do to make ourselves fell beautiful when we pull down the covers the inside is a holy mess. Take the time to heal and love you. Once you have accomplish this task,you will be loved.You will be able to love the way God intented love to be, not lust.Love is forever, does not envy. Our greatest problem is ourself.The way we look at ourselves. Seek ye the kingdom of God ladies and gentlemen, God knows your heart, and if he takes care of your does he not know your needs. Notice I said needs and not wants. That can get us in a lot of trouble.Pay attention to God and allow him to direct your path. God has someone just for you, we must have patience.

  I too am a fullfigure woman. I would like to be less but I realized that size as great as it can be, does not dictate to me my love for myself. In my time here, I have been a size 8-18.No matter what size you are now, you must love your self or else how is anyone else to love you.Exercise is important whether you are a size 1 or size 22. We must put some time aside to pamper and treat ourselves. I recently ask God if I were attractive.I have my answer all 6 feet of it. Please pay attention to the person's walk with Christ and not the appearance. Even though the look is nice the spirit is far better.
May God bless you with his mercy and grace

  There is something called "visual stimulation" and men have it more than women. God just made them more visual and women more auditory (we need to hear nice words, etc.). A Christian marriage and family therapist once said in a seminar that "the women in his bed needs to be the woman in his head." It may sound crude, but it's true. If a man marries a woman that he does not find physically appealing, his eyes continue to wander. It may not be right, but it's the truth.

So ladies, do not be upset if a guy does not want you because of your size or lack thereof (some men want heavy women). Just be glad that he is honest enough to let you know up front. A woman needs to know that she is beautiful in the eyes of her husband and that he desires her.

And guys, we like you to look good too. Don't look for a Halle Berry figured woman if you're bringing a Santa Claus figure to the relationship.

Sometimes, we just need to be real, folks. Personal preferences count; otherwise, this site would not make any sense. Let's respect those preferences and trust God to guide us to the match He has in store for us.

  I am somewhat new to this site and just started browsing around to find this forum. I have to echo Yrag's post.

Over the course of my marriage I gained 80 pounds. After our divorce, I was left with no self-esteem due to my husband's insensitive remarks. It took me six years to recover from that emotional trauma.

One late evening shopping in the grocery store, I realized there were lots of plump women shopping with their mates....and at work there were lots of thin, divorced women. It was as if a light from heaven appeared to give me the insight that my divorce was NEVER about the weight!

As if Divine confirmation, flash forward to present day...my ex is now "with" a woman several inches taller than himself, and carries extra poundage. I've lost 40 and now working on that last 40!

God bless all.
