Do women mind chubby guys?

Question

I've been battling my weight for about 14 years and it's not fun when you don't feel good in your own skin for that many years. Only the past 3 years have I been making a lot of progress and I'd say I'm currently as fit as I've ever been ( i51.tinypic.com/kakxox.jpg ), but I'm still chubby. lol

How do you ladies feel about chubby guys? What if you know that they're trying really hard to work out and get fit?

I have been on both sides of the skinny and chubby fence and understand how difficult the struggle is. People that don't undetrstand can sometimes base their feelings on weight unfortunately. I tend to try and connect with someone based on feelings and whether or not we get along etc. Of course you need to be attracted to someone to maintain a relationship but you can be attracted to someone's sense of humor and then their looks grow on you. I do feel that society can sometimes be more accepting of weight on guys than on girls but it doesn't feel that way when you are struggling with it. So keep up the good work. When you are happy and comfortable with who you are you will meet the right person who loves you the way you are anyway!  :) Hope this helps

No!  I love my boyfriends chubby. Hahah, he's got a little tummy, and I find him more attractive than ANY guy I've ever dated, and let me tell you I've dated some of those wrestling guys with the awesome six packs and huge muscles.  I feel like they squashed me whenever they held me and I felt scrawny next to them, not a good feeling. My boyfriends a little on the chubby side and when he holds me I feel awesome cause it's all warm and soft, not hard.  Haha, any way, everyone has different preferences, good luck (:

you look fine. I prefer guys a little chubby than too skinny because I don't want to feel like the bigger one.  I mean obviously there are limits, I wouldn't want to date someone who is really unhealthy, but if you are fit, and make an effort it wouldn't bother me.

Dude don't worry about it. I'm 5'10, I'm like 230, I am visibly more overweight that you. I have no problem. Some women, yeah, they won't give you the time of day regardless, but women like that aren't genuine. Confidence, sense of humor, and intelligence, all much more important than looks.

Couple nights ago I was at a bar, cracking jokes to the people I was with and people at the tables around me. Total strangers almost in tears laughing so hard. That's the kind of personality that turns heads. When I get on a roll I can have people in tears laughing.. People WANT to be around somebody like that. The more people want to be around you, the more confident you'll be, and the more attractive you'll become.

Just for the record here.. your skinny as hell If I could of been that thin at 20 I would of been totally a happy guy with myself. I doubt you battled weight issues as much as I have or what I'm currently still going through. Anyways don't say your chubby it's a insult to people like me that carry actual body fat around. But yeah girls will like you for who you are. ones who base on looks are fake as fu3k.

You are adorable! And honestly, I would not care at all, and might actually be more comfortable.

Most girls struggle with their weight, I know I do, and having a guy who has faced similar problems would relieve a bit of the pressure to be perfect. Plus, it would be awesome to get fit togther (I, too am losing weight and getting more fit)

I would actually say, at this point in my life, that would be the perfect kind of guy for me.

Chubby guys are so adorable, especially when they're sweet and chubby hahaha so cute. My friend only dates chubby guys hahaha so it deffinitely happens. Don't feel you have to change unless health concerns arise. Other than that be happy. Because love can find anyone.

Honestly, I try not to base my attraction to men on their looks, but weight is one thing that is important to me.  I like a guy to be a healthy weight, I've tried getting over this, but it's just not possible.  I like men who are in shape, sorry.

heatherlynn · Answer

congrats on getting fit! iv only had one serious Boyfriend and he was the classic thin fit guy but he constantly made jokes about his weight like he thought he was fat and was really insecure...it made me feel like I wasn't thin enough either, I would rather be with a sweet, confident, happy chubby guy than a thinner guy who has a distorted image of himself. :)

LiveLaughLove94 · Answer

I really wouldn't mind at all. I tend to struggle slightly with my weight (I get very self conscious about it) and I would probably feel more comfortable with someone who knew how it felt :) (You don't actually look chubby though!) As long as he is healthy and happy, then I wouldn't mind at all ! :)

DEPENDS ON THE WOMAN. WOMEN ARE, BY NATURE, ATTRACTED TO THE TALL, DARK, AND HANDSOME, BUT A LOT OF WOMEN ARE ALSO ATTRACTED TO THE CHUBBY GUY, BECAUSE WHETHER THEY KNOW IT OR NOT, IT'S BECAUSE THEY FEEL IF THEY DATE A GUY THAT'S A LITTLE CHUBBY OR LESS ATTRACTIVE THAT THERE'S A LESSER CHANCE THAT HE'LL CHEAT OR HAVE THE CHANCE TO. AND MOST LESSER ATTRACTIVE GUYS ARE NICER. I, PERSONALLY, DON'T LIKE STICK FIGURED GUYS! I LIKE MINE WITH SOME MEAT ON THEIR BONES! LOL

u can find girls who are into all types of physicality. but if you wanna appeal to all then lose the weight. when you come home from work or school and all you wanna do is sleep, ignore the urge and go do some sit-ups. you might hate yourself the next day but the end result will be worth it.

I don't mind chubby.. My first 4 high school crushes were chubby.. IT made them nice and soft to lean on. LOL .. Reminds me of a comforting teddy bear.. Has a bit of a protector thing going too.

dude I'm in your exact situation, but a bit worse. you mind telling me your age, height and weight for comparison? private message me if you want.

twohearts4one · Answer

I don't mind chubby guys, I mean all's fair game. If he had an interest in me, and I felt the same I might as well give him a chance or something like that.

Standingpretty · Answer

I think it really depends on the guy but I don't mind at all. I myself aren't perfect so I can't expect anybody else to be. I have had crushes on chubby guys in the past and it just depends on the individual a guy is.

Anonymous · Answer

honestly, it sucks after you've dated a guy with a six pack and muscles who's in shape. please do something about it.  if you're working out to get fit, then it's OK :)

dramatichick24 · Answer

some girls prefer chubby guys! a few of my friends do actually.

Yeahhbro · Answer

well think about it, what do you think about chubby girls? Are they attractive?. If you are working out, I guess it shows that you are planning to get better which is a huge plus.

Anonymous · Answer
