I outweigh my boyfriend by at least 30 pounds. He is super skinny and not the most athletic of guys. I have always been into athletics playing softball in college. We have a great relationship! The problem we have is me being bigger than him and more importantly stronger. This makes him uncomfortable because the guy is supposed to be the protector. I actually like the fact that I am stronger! Anyone else have a similar situation? How do u make your boyfriend more comfortable about the gender roles being flipped?

Have a date in the weight room and let him start getting stronger!
The problem is not you being strong. If there just be a "problem" it would be him being weak.
If the "problem" is that you're strong and fit, then I would not say this is going to turn out well, tbh.5 -
If he is insecure about it, then he should fix it... its no different then people being insecure cause they are over weight, if you wanna feel better about things, then its time to take action and lose. You can try and put a bandaid on his insecurities but they are still going to be there.0
