Girls: Would you date a guy who is underweight?

Question

I'm 180cm/60kg - 6ft/130lb and unable to gain any weight. I'm not sick but people often think so because it's so unusual these days and I believe it puts girls off. People always comment how thin I am.

And yes I do work out.

Any ideas how to redirect the attention to my better traits? I'm not ashamed of myself but it's annoying how it's the first thing people see. (And I kinda get it honestly, I also think it's odd when I see another guy that's just as thin.)

Already am. My boyfriend is only just on the skinny side now but in February, he was only 8 and a half stone at 6'0 (so like 100 lbs if I'm doing the maths right?). I was worried for him but I didn't find it unattractive. He's always been pretty thin since we met as kids, m, though he'd had issues with his health like passing out a few times which may have been something to do with it. Anyway, obviously I'm cool with dating someone that skinny, though when it gets to that extreme, obviously it doesn't make me very happy.

Any girl who puts weight above personality/character/etc is just plain dumb. My boyfriend of 2 years and soon fiancé, 5'8" and used to weigh ~125lb. Since we've been dating though, I remind him to eat more often and make sure he has daily meals (He had suffered from anorexia) and now weighs around ~140lbs. Still underweight, but it doesn't stop me from loving him. I just think that some girls are afraid of maybe.. a stigma that surrounds dating a thinner guy?

Yes I would (to an extent) it's not really unattractive in my eyes. Doesn't put me off as long as it's not to the point that he's so bony that it looks like he's truly suffering from anorexia.

The picture to the left to me is still attractive to me while the picture on the right is not.

Yes. My boyfriend is also way thinner than me. He is within the healthy range of the BMI, but it's not a lot. He can't gain weight either, no matter how much he works out or eats.

I never cared about his weight, as long as he's healthy.

kikisand · Answer

I would, yes. The right one will be attracted to your character, personality, and how you treat her.
I myself am tall and thin and have a difficult time putting on weight. We can't fight our genetics or our metabolisms. It

Emmdk · Answer

Yeah I would. And I have... if you could accept that I'm bigger

Try to accentuate your shoulders to make them appear broader. Or maybe a bit looser fitting pants. I don't know. There's nothing wrong with being skinny.

TacosRAwesome · Answer

As long as he doesn't look too delicate, yes. I'm a bit accident prone and clumsy so for safety reasons I want someone who is able to deal with that.

DianaRoyalty · Answer

Well I am 1.77 and 49 and fit. I don't see why a boy wouldn't be attractive if he is underweight

I have a thing for fat guys, but if I got to know you and really liked you then it wouldn't be an issue at all.

Anonymous · Answer

Yes, I would. Infact I had a crush on a guy who was underweight but still was handsome and different. I think he liked me too, I didn't say anything to him but made it a bit obvious by flirting, it didn't get me anywhere. 😏

The right girl wil look at your qualities cuz your personality makes you unique and not all girls go for looks

I learn that the otter appearance of a person does not define a person. I have actuall fallen attracted to a very small frame guy which is not my usual preference. You continue to be who u are, the right person will see past your size
