What in the world? People use this to find dates? Heck.....I'm trying to lose weight with support....not find someone to stress me the hell out and trigger my emotional eating.... Geez! Get your priorities right. Wow!

    Where do people do this? I've honestly never seen any posts that do this. Maybe i'm just not looking in the right places...

    I think there are some people who enjoy flirting on here. I'm not here for that so I just move on. No problem.

    What exactly triggered your emotional eating?

    The thing you must remember is that MFP has a wide band of users so you are going to come across all types of people. Just like anywhere, you will see flirting and people trying to hook up.

    They say people who use MFP are 3 times more likely to find a relationship. Lol.

    You do you. It's your choice if you eat to soothe emotions and your choice if you google "gif ". No one makes you.

    It is also your choice not to flirt or not to consider anyone you meet here as a possible date. That's cool. I don't date anyone here (but many of my friends are fodder for a great fantasy life) .

    Don't use other people and their choices as your ready excuse for when this doesn't magically get you to your goals. It doesn't affect you a whit if someones friendships here develop into romantic relationships. It makes sense :they've got shared interests and goals.

    You do you. Try to not be so judgy of others. It is taking you off your square.

    People complain about this from time to time, and I do have to say, I haven't seen it happening excessively on this site. Why do you care? People meet other people all over the place, even the gym. Why would this be any different? Focus on your own goals.

    I have had people flirt and I'm sure I come off as a flirt but find nothing wrong with it. Someone sees my chubby *kitten* on here and reads my diary and still wants to flirt? Why not. What is this rehab?
