Anyone feel like you get more attention now due to losing weight but little to no offers to go out? As a single girl, I find it really weird since losing weight, I get more attention and by no means "fit" yet, but it's dead on the dating scene and when I was bigger, granted I had a boyfriend previously during my "fat time" but had offers. Guys, this goes for you too, not just us ladies.

    You state the opposite opinion of the person you're speaking with. That's generally how it's done.

    Well you know why your dating game is a little slow. My dating game is not slow. I just do not want to date at the moment. Got a little bucket list to do first.

    I do get interesting offers.
    I am not single.

    Ironically, when I was single it was like a ghost town, so I feel ya.

    When I was single and "skinny" I never got asked out. EVER! And now that I'm married, have kids and put on some weight I get asked out all the time. Makes no sense.

    Maybe it's because when you start to lose weight, you are more confident so you're more likely to make eye contact and smile? For me I'm wearing different clothes, wearing makeup and actually doing my hair. I feel hella confident now that I'm not so frumpy so I feel like people are actually looking at me versus watching me do the housewife shuffle I normally do! But that's me. Just a thought. :)

    If I may, I'll offer up a possibility out of so many possibilities. When I was heavier men were more vocal. In part I think it was due to me being less "intimidating" and there being a higher chance of being single. Those possibilities decrease the chances of rejection for those guys. Now that I'm smaller, I get more looks, smiles, etc, but less advances (the ring on my finger helps that, but most of the time they assume it's a "stay away" ring). Those men that do speak to me, tread carefully and usually ask if I'm single before proceeding. Many of my male friends explained it to me in simple terms: "chubby girls are nicer". :ohwell:

    Some People are intimidated by Pretty Women and are afraid of rejection. There are also many actual nice guys out there who are Self confident (Not Big Headed) who will approach and who are much more deserving of your company! Patience Darlin! The nice ones will come around! You don't want attention of the others anyway! :smile:
