she'd be very shallow if that's what it took for her to be attracted to a guy. It's one thing for it to be a turn on. It'd be like if a guy thought a girl having double d cups only made a girl attractive.

Nah, but having a v-shaped torso ups his attractiveness a lot. It's completely necessary, though.
It's a natural instinct, like men preferring a certain hip to waist ratio. Most men have broader shoulders to smaller waists to some degree. I don't mean the "v" that jacked guys get at their stomach.
Sexual attraction is a big component of a relationship. Humans are wired for it. I tend to bond more through sexual activity-I can't speak for everyone, though. I have overweight friends with overweight boyfriends.
Also, being overweight is bad for people's health. Healthy diet and exercise is valuable for good physical health, but also mental and emotional. An OTA could help you learn physical activities that are beneficial in many ways.
What's on the inside is more important. . I would think someone in your age group would be mature to understand that.. I expect this attitude from 18 year olds
You seem to be hurting right now and lashing out because of it. Being overweight isn't a sense of identity - it's just the result of habits, largely. Perhaps even eating for comfort, which many of us struggle with. A healthy diet and exercises can help you FEEL better, not just look better. Let go of your fears, which I know is easier said than done. If you have a handicap, there are trainers who know how to help.
Occupational therapy can be different than like a personal trainer. If you're working that much, good health should be even more of a priority. I know, it can be do hard. I work 50+ hours a week a lot too. But working hard and carrying weight and being angry is a sure path to serious health problems. You don't want to be broken down and pissed off, or you wouldn't be here having this conversation. You know you need to change something to feel good. It's ok - take small steps.
I have anxiety too- panic attacks, even, which are hell. Working on that could be the change you need. Exercise and diet make a HUGE difference in anxiety and depression. Have you ever looked at the Anxiety and Phobia workbook? That's helped me, along with some cognitive behavioral therapy and low doses of meds. I'm not going to lie - life is HARD sometimes and nothing comes magically free. But your fears that you are powerless and complete helpless are just not true.
You can find a girlfriend - you've found one in the past. Nobody is saying you can't. But your compulsive questioning and sense of desperation and frustration here suggest that you need a life change and, in fact, are getting to be ready for one.
Not necessarily for me defined and toned is more like firm and you could see a bit of lines maybe for the ab area. I like a little softness. I guess my word choice at first was not the best, sorry about that.
It's interesting to me that I've never heard a girl say that she liked muscular men. The only physical things on guys that girls like are the things you can never change. Aren't they cruel?
I never said that. You asked, I prefer my man to be fit, that's MY preferance. You sound insecure. Others may not view being overweight as an issue for them at all.
Depends how fat I guess. I haven't shunned guys because they were a little round in the belly, I think if they have an attractive face and personality you can overlook things like that sometimes.

I think 6 pack is for the guy's own ego. Nobody else fuckin' cares.
They do care.. why do you think I've been single for a year
Try to change ypur attitude. Tell them you are what you are and show then that u r better than those 6-packers.
You mean be fake positive?
No, not for me. I'm not an abs girl.

You have to be very into yourself to get a v shaped torso. . Do you know how much work that takes?
It's a natural instinct, like men preferring a certain hip to waist ratio. Most men have broader shoulders to smaller waists to some degree. I don't mean the "v" that jacked guys get at their stomach.
How am I supposed to do that with a handicap?
Consult an occupational therapist. They know a lot of stuff like that.
Why do you care if a guy is overweight?

I never got complaints from past lovers. . Hate to break it to you being thin doesn't make you better than me or a better lover
So date girls who are into you... Doesn't mean every girl will feel that way or that it's necessary for you to find someone that they do.
What's on the inside is more important. . I would think someone in your age group would be mature to understand that.. I expect this attitude from 18 year olds
If you're as contented as you say, why the aggressive and combative attitude?
Cuz I'm sick of women looking down at me

I can't afford trainers and I work 60 hrs a week. . I was engaged once

I'm too old. . It's too late for me.. I don't want to get fit cuz that would be the only reason a girl wants me
It's not too late. The older you get, the worse you'll feel. Start making small changes.
I need a gf this year..small changes are hard if you have anxiety

The only thing I care about is getting a gf nothing else
You can find a girlfriend - you've found one in the past. Nobody is saying you can't. But your compulsive questioning and sense of desperation and frustration here suggest that you need a life change and, in fact, are getting to be ready for one.
Of course I'm ready for one.. I'm a giver
I don't prefer six pack abs.. I like guys with a bit of fat on their tummy :P
No, I would rather have it be just defined and toned.
isn't it a 6-pack if it is defined and toned?
Not necessarily for me defined and toned is more like firm and you could see a bit of lines maybe for the ab area. I like a little softness. I guess my word choice at first was not the best, sorry about that.
No not at all. Not at all whatsoever. I actually don't care for sixpack abs.
Would you date a guy who was 50 lbs overweight
It all depends you know... It suits some people to have a small belly but to some people it doesn't... Do you have a picture?:-)
Yeah but I don't want to show it.. The people are mean on here
It's interesting to me that I've never heard a girl say that she liked muscular men. The only physical things on guys that girls like are the things you can never change. Aren't they cruel?
I know what you're referring to thank god I'm ok in that department
Yes thank god. If you weren't, you'd have no chance, and you'd probably know exactly what I'm referring to.
Yep lol
I am surprised by a lot of these answers it's good to know I don't have to have a 6 pack now.
No, not at all. but i don't like a guy to have a beer belly hanging out there. i work out to keep fit and should my man.
That's conceited
Why?
You think a guy is inferior cuz he's overweight
A beer belly on a guy kinda makes him look's like he's pregnant haha.
Why are you repeating yourself broken record
I never said that. You asked, I prefer my man to be fit, that's MY preferance. You sound insecure. Others may not view being overweight as an issue for them at all.
It is an issue cuz women only want men who are fit.. you know looks fade right
When did anyone repeat themself?
Not you, llorando. He said the same thing on the guys side saying I look like a pregnant woman
Not all women want fit men. my sisters husband is not fit at all and they have been together for ages.
Weren't you raised that what's on the inside is what matters not the outside
@asker, I didn't say you particularly looked pregnant, Just that some guys with most of their fat around their stomach kinda looks pregnant.
That would include me
i was raised that way but physical attaction goes beyond how one is raised. Some may like blond, blue eyed or brunette, brown eyed.
People only care about the body.. it's wrong
It would be wrong to be with someone they arn't physically attracted to.
Why. . Haven't you seen beauty and the beast? And by the way isn't what's attractive subjective
A fiction movie. So what i like is subjective to me and you call me conceited.
Cuz you won't date someone based on their looks
Can't argue with u anymore, you are drowning in sel-pity
You should give overweight guys a chance. . You'll find we are human too
Never said you we not human. i'm quite happy with mine.
Is he hot?
Smokin
You don't care that you make people cry?
nobody crying around here but you.
That doesn't affect your conscience?
I have 6 pack abs, I'm still a forever alone virgin. So I guess no.
Dude you're young. . I didn't lose my virginity til 35
No not in my opinion
Is being fat ok?
Depends how fat I guess. I haven't shunned guys because they were a little round in the belly, I think if they have an attractive face and personality you can overlook things like that sometimes.
What about 50 lbs overweight?
Again it depends how short or tall you are. Everyone carries 50 pounds differently
I'm 5 feet 10
Definitely not, but it is a plus!
It's more than a plus.. it's a deal maker
Nope, you really don't have the place to state what is and isn't a deal maker for all women.
Definitely not. To me it's about personality more than looks. If there was a ratio for looks : personality for me it would be 30 : 70.
Women tell me I'm ugly cuz I'm 50 lbs overweight
I don't have a six pack. :( And I'm fat!
Do you have trouble getting women?
Yeah... actually...
It shouldn't be that way
Hm. Maybe it's a lot of other things like all of my flaws in personality.
Women aren't perfect either
That is true... Maybe it's just the abs!
Abs are gross
I guess I don't know if I like or hate them, really. Undecided.
use abhancer for instant abs.
I think abs are gross and unnatural looking
My girlfriend doesn't demand them either. In fact, she doesn't really care, haha.
well abhancer only takes 1 minute.
She would care if you were 50 lbs overweight
No of course not dude lol :-P
I was asking the girls
Why is my male answer the only one with the snarky response?
Did u think I was flirting with you or something? Lol
Don't know why? Nothing personal. . Sorry just hurting a lot inside
Nope a guys personality can be attractive too
Well THEY won't get to know my personality cuz they won't give me a chance cuz of my looks
I'm sorry people don't give you a chance
That's it?
I'm sure your personality is great
Stop with your sarcasm
i didn't mean it to be sarcastic sorry
1 pack is attractive enuff
Heck yes
at least nuff said so xP
