Seriously! I'm happy for these two and no one should be so mean, there's NOTHING wrong with this picture and people should just let them be happy together

    This is an issue with people?? I think we need to focus on ourselves and leave other peoples relationships to thier own discretion. Really who cares?

    I followed the read and was thinking "good for her" ALL the way to the bottom then when I read this:
    "So, with Ali's support, I started The Beauty Adjustment, a collaborative video project in which my subscribers help me spread the word that or love. Beauty and relationships come in all shapes and sides: brown, yellow, short, tall, thin, fat—and one partner doesn't have to mirror the other. Love is love. That's a lesson that Ali taught me, and now I want to teach it to the rest of the world."

    And I have a bit of an issue with this. Why?

    Because this: "there is no one "normal" way to look"



    We are getting bigger and bigger because we keep pushing the normal size UP, so that it suits us. It isn't normal to be that big. Good for her she found someone but she isn't very old and is VERY big. She WILL have problems with health later. Not only that but it just simply has to affect your life and the activities you are able to do.

    BTW I get the impression that if she decides to do something about her weight and loses a bunch of it that this guy is going to be much less interested.

    Indeed. Many might think it's cruel to acknowledge but the truth is he could be with her simply because he does indeed like bigger females.

    I have seen sooo many couples like this in my life and I have never even gave it a second thought.

    An old friend of mine, who was very tall and overweight dated this super tiny mini man for years... the one did look a little interesting, but LOVE IS BLIND :wink:

    Personally I think saying "Love is blind" is more cruel then simply saying he likes her body type. It isn't completely unimaginable to me that a guy/girl will like someone who is heavier, we all have our type. For me it's tall gangly guys with big ears and big feet. :D For other women it's short stocky guys, or big teddy bears. We all have our taste.

    Seriously... you think its CRUEL to say love is blind? I dont even have a comeback for that.

    Love is blind = love doesn't care if she's fat.
    A person likes certain body types = people love each other and ARE ALSO attracted to each other.

    Nothing to argue, I always found the term 'love is blind' to be the easy way out. Love does help accept attributes but to lay it out to blindness is just someones nice way of saying "I don't get why they're together either." :D

    How do you know he likes her body type? I didnt read anywhere in the article where he said that. There are no pictures of past girl friends. Maybe, he just likes her for who she is and it has little to nothing with her body type.

    Thats all im sayin.

    It's mentioned in the article that he's always been into big girls and his exes were the same physique.

    I get what she's saying. The love is blind comment, gives the impression that he loves her DESPITE her size.
  • i feel bad for him
    for falling in love with someone who doesnt look like theyll be on this earth for long
    if they get married she will have serious health issues before her 40s
    unless she fixes her bad habits (i hope)
    no one is knocking their love
    its just that you see one person who is a model of health and their mate is the complete opposite
    it worries us is all
