    I would, its not the appearance its the personality. that goes for anyone would want to date. Im actually a chubby girl and my boyfriend is a physical trainer, bodybuilder and majors in nutrition. yes, i wonder how it happened too. lol. He looks ripped at all times. so one day i was feeling self conscious because he loves walking around naked. so i asked him why he likes me physically? he said i have a cute face. i wont lie, i felt like it was a slap in the face. lol. but he didnt notice and just kept talking. he said he loves my body. my curves, my cup size, my thighs, even my pinky toes, everything. so needless to say i was a happy camper. lol. I've just started using myfitnesspal, but I've been on a diet exercise for a while. Now he keeps me motivated but doesnt intrude. so you really never know where you'll find someone you like and a few sizes out of your ideal zone shouldnt be an issue.

    Do I sound like a flake if I say I just don't know? I'm a face person, so I think if they had a cute face and sweet personality I would say most likely. But I've never been approached by a bigger guy, so I don't know for sure how I'd react.

    My husband is skin and bones, but truthfully I prefer meatier men, but not flabby/fat (a little belly doesn't bother me though.)

    Personality means a lot.

    In the form of a bodybuilder, power lifter or strongman, yes. Otherwise no, not anymore.

    My entire lifestyle revolves around health food, healthy eating and fitness. I would prefer someone who is the same way. They wouldn't have to be totally emersed like I am since I compete. However, I do prepare the meals and live an active lifestyle and would like a partner who will try to outlive me without the complications that being obese would bring.

    my first instincts is to say NO...however,....... I did once, form a crush on someone I thought was unattractive at first (their face)........BUT....If it was their body, I don't know if I would be sexually attracted to them ...so I wouldn't want to lead them on for me to determine if I can look past this... so I safely say no.

    If they are a good person, love kids, etc, yes. Their is somethign beautiful about everyone, my momma taught me that. Besides come age sixty I would rather be with a sweet, lovign woman who was obese than a skinny ****ing ***** who I couldnt stand. Just saying!

    Sure. I have, and I would again. It's so much more about the inner person for me. Of course, I have basic preferences, but I have broken away from those many times in order to get to know someone, and sometimes it has worked out very nicely. :)

    If they were absolutely incredible. And my reasoning for not doing it is I don't want to deal with their health problems.

    Being someone that briefly dated someone that was plus size when I was younger and stupid, I would not do it again. I really don't know what I was thinking because not only was he plus-sized (in the not-football player way), he had a absolutely horrible personality and did mean things to me. So, yeah, no. Glad I got out of it quick. I've only dated three guys, two of which were very short-lived, so the dating thing has never been a huge "I need to do this" kind of thing anyway.
    The guy I'm with now (and am planning on being married to) is pretty skinny, but not overly skinny like he used to be. I really like his body type and for me, regardless of how good looking and fit you are if you have no personality and you can't make me laugh, you are pretty much un-dateable. At least to me anyway.

    my husband was 20 pounds heavier when we first got together and all the sudden, his wife found MFP. He has dropped about 20 so far but having someone in your ear explaining fat grams and portion sizes helps a lot. He eats half of what he used to eat and 20 ibs is gone so far and his wife is getting thinner at the same time. SCORE! :love:

    Well I did date a guy who was rather..Large in the mid section once and, I admit, he was obese. So yes, I would date a plus size guy. (he had other issues too.)

    However, now that I am getting back to a healthy weight maybe I should consider a guy who wants healthy weight.

    By no means does he need to have a six pack...

    However, that would be nice.

    To all the red necks out there. NOT THAT KIND OF SIX PACK! PUT THE BEER DOWN! (Southern joke.)
