Does it annoy any other girls when guys complain about their weight, a food order being too large or how they want to get in shape? Why do they do it?

[Anonymous]

I've noticed this trend with a lot of overweight guys. Girls are not watching or noticing... at least in my opinion. If I'm with a guy it's because I like him and I like being around him. Hearing him complain about how he needs to "lift more" or when his food comes he just breaks out into exacerbation saying that there is just wayyy too much food, just gets old. I just feel like it's so feminine and unappealing in a guy. It actually makes me feel more self conscious as a girl when a guy complains about his weight, too much food, needing to exercise more. Anyone else feel this way?

I'm a girl and it annoys me when I'm a date w/ a guy who complains about his weight/food/exercise problems

I'm a girl and this doesn't annoy me

I'm a guy and I do this all the time

I'm a guy and I don't find this annoying

I'm talking about the guys who order a burger and when it arrives they don't eat any of the fries (after choosing to order them with their meal) and then eat like 3 bites of the burger because there is just oh so too much. Then they complain about it

I hate fat people like this. well not hate but it annoys me when they do this. we know u didn't get that big by eating 3 bites of a chefs salad so dig in. you know u want it. I prefer fat people who just eat what they want and don't give a fuck about the guilt. I think its more the insecurity and whininess that annoys me not cuz their fat

[Asker]

I kind of agree... or it's like... if they are going to order something unhealthy, why complain about it. Just enjoy it.

[kangy]

i would feel annoyed if he keep talking about it. if he want a healthier diet he can say so before our meet up..

[Asker]

or don't order something crazy unhealthy...

You might be one of the girls that are into guys no matter their shape, but that's not the standard. Most girls prefer a fit body. He can not exercise and eat every thing in sight, but if it doesn't work out with you, they are up shit creek.

[Asker]

Oh really? Huh. I don't know. I don't really feel that way about girls, but maybe that's just my point of view.

That don't fawn all over muscular or lean muscle type of guys?
I don't think body image issues are a distinctly female problem.

Though I have to say that in your other comment, I see your point. He might be more an extreme case though. Anorexic? If so, he's got an actual problem and it has nothing to do with being too "feminine."

[Asker]

Yeah, maybe it's just this guy... and now when other guys complain I just get annoyed b/c it makes me think of him..

[Ihav2fart]

I need to lift more.
When there's too much food, I just think cool I don't have to make breakfast, lunch, or as much dinner.
Things like this is too trivial to get me annoyed.

[Asker]

Maybe I should have been a little more clear in my description lol

[Ihav2fart]

I see the update, while I don't really "complain about portions" I may state whoa the burger is bigger than I expected it to be. It doesn't bother me.

[Asker]

Maybe this is too specific, but I have a guy friend who will order a huge pasta dish and then eat 3 bites and he's "full."

[Ihav2fart]

Why does that bother you? He could always bag it up for another time.

[Asker]

Maybe it's the guy in total... he's just really feminine and has gotten more feminine the more time I spend around him. He is RAIL thin. Like, unattractively rail thin. He used to be a bigger guy and then he started really caring about his weight... now ever meal I share with him is "omg I'm such a fatty," or "omg there are sooo many calories in this." Idk, it takes the enjoyment out of the meal.

[Ihav2fart]

I think you maybe dating a gay guy.

[Asker]

I'm not dating him anymore. I think is gay though... I stopped being attracted to him as we dated. He's so whiny all the time. I couldn't take it.

[Ihav2fart]

I could imagine. It's good you ended it instead of dragging it out.

[Asker]

Right? doesn't he seem.. not masculine?

[Ihav2fart]

no he does not seem masculine. Thought some girls like that.

[Asker]

We're still really good friends.

[Ihav2fart]

That's nice of you. Is it awkward?

[Asker]

Not really actually. I so lost my attraction when he became all girly that for me it's like having a gay guy best friend around.

[Ihav2fart]

I don't have any openly gay friends or feminine friends. I wonder how that feels.
I also wonder how it is to have a lesbian friend.

[Asker]

Huh yeah, I don't know if I have any. I know them, but they aren't close friends. My best friends sister is a lesbian, but I don't hang out w/ her w/o my best friend.

[Ihav2fart]

Hmmmmmmm, I'd imagine a lesbian friend to be quite interesting. Can wing woman for me.

I hate when they say: "Ohh this is way too much food, I can't possibly eat all this!" Or something bitchy like that. You are a man goddamn it, you are supposed to eat a lot! Don't whine about food, just eat!
And I like when guys just love themselves a just bit too much. Even if they want to lose weight, I still need them to love themselves.

[Asker]

Hahaha that's how I feel!

[aamy811]

Well it's too much food for them. How much food you can eat isn't determine by gender. Also I find your idea really outdated. What's wrong with people caring about the way he looks. In fact you should be happy that their trying to be healthy
