The Right Guy

So I've been on this journey since February. Lost over 50 pounds and I am so excited! But it still seems to me that guys aren't interested in me. Anybody still struggling with the same thing?

    Do this for you. Not so men will be interested in you. It's a far more fulfilling journey that way.


    And men feed off your confidence and how YOU feel about yourself. Be selfish. Me me me. (Meaning, if you love you how you are, others will too).

    wait what.....

    are you interested in the "RIGHT GUY" or interested in all guys "But it still seems to me that guys aren't interested in me"

    cause the right guy takes time.....it'll happen....

    but any guy? sometimes they are noticing, you just don't notice them noticing...

    It's not about weight loss if a guy is in to you or not. I may have the same problem, I see all these losers and idiots who have someone, and yet I can't get a decent guy. I only get hit on by weirdos and uggos :noway:

    Just live life, do what you like doing. You are more likely to meet someone with common interest that way then out "looking" for a guy.
  • Regaining confidence is harder then regaining your figure, but you've got to keep working on both. I am :smile:

    I find this to be the case with most of my single girlfriends...they are always stressing about finding a guy...its like really? What is the big deal about being in a relationship? lol....I know that whole biological clock thing and all...but just breath....have fun in life and relax....it will come when it comes...stressing only makes it worse.

    Must be a girl thing :)

    This process should NEVER be about someone else. It should be about you wanting to do it for YOURSELF. You need to make yourself a priority before you can allow anyone else in. The rest will fall into place later.

    That's excellent news for me because I never go out. I stay home on the weekends and watch television on the couch, and then during the week, I go to work and sit in my office upstairs all day. I'm just waiting for the right one to drop down in my lap without any effort on my part, so it's good to know I don't have to change anything.

    shirtless has also proven effective...

    It's been said before, but it merits repeating (for all of us). Be here for YOURSELF. Whether you've got that special someone in your life or not, you'll always have your health, so you might as well make sure your health is the best it can be.

    Beyond that, you also need to be yourself for yourself. While it's true that "They won't call you if they don't know you're there," if you're doing things and going to places you don't like in the hopes of fitting into some magic formula for meeting someone, can you really expect to meet the right kind of person? It may create some limits (myself, I don't care for much of the club / bar scene, so there goes a few opportunities out the door), and there may be people who simply won't like you in *that* way because of it, but when you're yourself and you're comfortable with that, people will pick up on it. Maybe it's just me, but a confident, bright fire in a woman's eye looks better to me than the most expensive makeup.

    Hmmm....I find that this sarcasm is hard to spread on my toast.
  • Men will start being interested when you show interest in yourself.

    Just be enjoy life, do things that make you happy and smile. The rest will follow.

    Keep your head up, you are amazing! :smile:

    At the end of the day, you are still you. Just because you lost 50 lbs, doesn't mean guys are going to flock to you.
