    This scares men away and hurts your self image while dating
    This causes damage to your self image and scares guys away.
    Male dating preferences are often over simplified and misunderstood.
    This particular preference many men have isn't as vain and shallow as women like to imagine. There are some legitimate concerns men have that are very uncomfortable to talk about. We often hear very mean things said about this particular issue but it is a delicate issue for some of the women who have it. It should be handled with care. I mean no harm or offense.

      sleeping with some random evil man just to feel wanted is something that can only be accepted by American culture, it's like expecting that jumping off a cliff won't AT LEAST break the legs, the trauma they have is something they literally signed on for assuming they were sober adults at the time

    I spent half of my life hearing men tell me I need to eat a cheeseburger, gain some weight, "get a little meat on them bones", "you're skinnier than I prefer " , to now being curvy (size 12) and men cannot get enough of me. It really plays with my head because I thought I looked my best when I was skinny. I did local modeling and was very toned and fit. Now I am softer and fluffier and I have had to stop going certain places because of how much I get pursued. I've never been healthy as I was born with medical problems (not ones that can be seen) , so it's not like I am motivated to get skinny to "be healthy" again. All I know is, the fattest slob of men that are very mediocre at best and usually old (50+) seem to be the most critical of a woman's body. It's very odd. At the end of the day, as long as you aren't morbidly obese or anorexic, it should only matter how you feel about yourself.

Now I'm starting to think guys would probably like me more if I was "thicc" as they say 😒 I'm 26 now and noticed my metabolism slowing down- i've gained some weight in the past two years but I'm still too skinny apparently. Lol. I have a feeling what's happening to you now will happen to me in a few years.

    I have been married twice, and now refuse to subject another man to my ill health.
    The time has come to stop distracting myself with relationship after relationship and do the work.
    Focussing on my relationship with myself, and the issues that I have first, will no doubt increase the future prospect of being a healthy partner to a healthy man.
    As I am learning it's never too late to reassess your life and if you're not happy with the way things are going, then change it!
    For those of us who are reinventing ourselves, we appreciate your honest, candid way of relating and getting your message across.

Because of my focus on my health, dating is low on my list. The amount of time, attention, and care that I give to myself while at the gym far outweighs breadcrumbs any low-effort jerk could give me. On top of well-earned confidence and a (more) healthy self-esteem, the added bonus is that the right kind of guy will feel like a million bucks with me on his arm. He's going to be thankful one day for the time it took to get us together

    This message is really important. Men are ultimately visual creatures. I am naturally very visual myself & I often notice partnered men checking me out in public, which leads me to notice their partners. Sometimes yes, it's a straight up womanizer but often, it's obvious these men either settled or she has become a little too "comfortable"/secure in the relationship and let herself go. Do women have a lot to juggle nowadays? Sure - but that comes down to you. You should have set boundaries in the first place as to whether you wanted to have 3 kids & still be working as well as if your man was willing to compromise his schedule so you could have time for yourself. What it takes to get him is what it takes to keep him. The truth hurts but it is what it is.
    That being said - I wish someone out there would communicate this message to all the highly successful but fat &/or creepy men out there!!! But unfortunately, most women aren't visual creatures like me & they can focus on handbags/material worth.

      @@KevHick But a man's wealth at a certain point doesn't matter over his appearance to a financially stable women. She gets to value men for their appearance in the same way men get to value women for theirs. Most women aren't aiming for millionaires, especially if they themselves are financially comfortable. They want a man who checks off the other boxes i.e. personality, appearance, lifestyle and who can in his being enhance the quality of her life and when they can't, a lot of women are opting to stay alone, which is why these guys can't find wives. The women that they would have considered took themselves off of the market because the guys weren't meeting their expectations in the non-monetary areas, and aren't around. It's not that the "wifey" types don't exist. They're just not available anymore.

    Hello Kev. I hope all is well with you and your family. Just wanted to say thank you for delivering this message, it was greatly needed. It reminds me back when I was underweight, didn't dress well, had no self worth and overall neglected myself. As a result, I received (and accepted) poor treatment from men and people in general. Fast forward to today, I'm in a better space, no longer underweight, I put time & care into my appearance and I'm learning to love myself more. People still try to mistreat me but I no longer tolerate their BS, like I once did. Thank you for being honest and sincere with your advice.

My weight have come off slow but remain off. While being healthy is very important it opens up people taking wegovy or Ozempic who are not a diabetic. It is the new craze because of need to lose a great deal of weight. I’m on the fence on this one because I see this can turn into a craze without knowing the medical consequences. I am loosing weight but in the end it’s about being healthy not about attracting a man. I love who I am.

    I've lost a whopping 45lbs in the past year and change. While I still need to lose about 20lbs more to my goal, I've definitely noticed men checking me out more, and even regard me better. It helps- losing weight- if you feel like your weight problems are getting in the way of feeling confident your partner is into you. Little bass ackwards in regards to dating, but a healthy, supportive relationship helps people feel confident enough to lose weight (or make other tough changes) as well. But once you lose weight (single or coupled up), don't get caught up in there being more men into you. Spoiler alert: most men will STILL only use you for sex.

    The reason women aren't willing to settle are practical though. If the woman gets pregnant and can't work, if he doesn't have as much or more that she worked for herself to attain, she's going to be dependent on him to provide her with what she provides for herself and he's not going to be able to provide her what she provides for herself.

Now, after being single since 2015 and abstaining from fitness since 2018 I now have a boyfriend. He's aware of the reasons I stopped working out and is also on board with my getting back to my fitness goal. Most of my focus will be hydration and toning before I pickup weights.

      @ActressAyannaTene Рік тому +2

      Lack of ambition/motivation can be a sign of a lack of self love. It’s not likely to “find real love” with someone in this state. I’d say if one is ok with being with someone who is not ambitious (which had nothing to do with money or assets) this might be an indication that that person is on the brink of settling.

    I believe the message is good however I believe women care about a man's health and his appearance as well. I really don't think the money comparison is needed. However I would say as a woman who had a sickly father I care about a man's health MORE than his appearance because that is a part of security. Knowing that outside of a freak accident my husband will likely live a long healthy is important. So what if he has a ton of money if he dies young and leaves me a widow. Also as Dietitian there is a lot of misconception that someone who is overweight isn't fit or healthy when there are plenty of thin people who aren't fit and are unhealthy. It's a view society has created. I do agree we should present our best selves. The first goal should be to be healthy and fit. Weight loss will come but if a woman never gets to a small size but she's healthy and fit, that's what matters. Also it's genius to talk about this while promoting a fitness app 😏
