    If you base your worth by measurements of pounds, inches, dollars or the like you will never measure up.

    It doesn't matter what you look like if you're a genuinely good guy; a girl will still fall for you☺️ I don't think you've met the right ones because looks really aren't that important (to the good girls I guess haha)

    Mr. Big, my husband weighs 310 lb. This never stopped me. I was the one who initiated the relationship in fact. :) Groom yourself well, dress in clothes that look good and fit right. Cultivate your best personality features and conversational skills. You do not want a shallow woman who only cares about appearances. That type will make you miserable.

    Edit for details: I'm an attractive woman with a Master's degree. So you see you don't have to settle for less. Husband grooms himself well, is intelligent, and is caring and hard working. His body fat did not factor into any of this and he did not have to settle for a woman who was unattractive, unintelligent, or anything like that.

    My one friend who was your size refused to look at any girl near his size. I was setting him up with women to date and they all had to be already in good shape.

    Sp i'm just wondering if you're willing to approach females who also have a "few pounds to loose"?

    Hun it's baby steps at a time as people keep saying..

    Work on your mental state and attitude.

    Diet and exercise... Have a 12 week plan of these and chop and change. Mfp is great place to start to get some advice.

    Hobbies... Like the poster above suggests do things that get you excited. But also something that will be beneficial to you.

    Speed dating is also a fun way to start. Take a friend along...

    Will you date him?

    No, because I am already in a relationship. I didn't think people would get so caught up in what I said

    The first thing to work on is realizing your self-worth. Be confident in your sense of humor and your loyalty to your friends.

    How are you messing things up? Is that something you can correct? If you are overpromising things, then try to stop. If you are sabotaging things, figure out why and see how you can stop it.

    It is not all about losing weight to get the girl. Many women are attracted to humor, personality, and confidence more than looks.

    If you don't love yourself, how can you expect others?

    it is hard to love your self when all you want to do is die

    And in turn no one is going to be falling for someone who is that depressed. I'm sorry to sound mean, but before you should even think about meating a girl, you should work on your issues.
    Sounds like this is more than just the weight though, you may need to think about getting some professional help? :)

    Confidence is key mate. Also if you feel that bad then hit the gym and get your diet sorted. If you feel so low then that should be your motivation. Imagine being in good shape, loyal and funny. You'd be a triple threat

    im 300LBs no not much to look at , I've been told I'm funny and have a good sense of humor , but I just think I'm weird , i suppose I'm not a great person either , I try my best but always mess up , I'm a loyal friend to my friends I'd die for any one of them , but I suppose that is because their life is worth living .....
    I'm just looking for someone I don't care about looks weight or any of that , I just want someone who is nice no me that is all. i mean how do I go about getting a nice woman , tbh I don't feel I should go out with any girl I mean any women on the plant could do better than me .
    I suppose this is more of a rant but a little help would be nice ..... thank you :)

    FIRST, you need to get counseling so that you can understand why you are putting yourself down. SECOND, stop with the negative self-talk. I am not a supermodel and my husband isn't a model either. But............he's a funny guy who takes care of me and loves me. He's negative often, so I am always telling him to be more positive about himself. If you can't be positive about yourself OP, then your woman won't be either.

    Op my husband is a lot bigger then you. I love him for him and his weight isn't an issue.
    You just need to find the right girl. For that to happen, you will have to work on yourself a bit. If your having feelings about suicide then I'd suggest seeking help first before looking for a relationship.
    When you meet there right lady, weight won't matter.

    You need a therapist. You need one now. I am not being mean or dismissive. If you feel like this, you have issues both in your thinking and possibly brain chemistry that need to be addressed.

    Please get some help.

    This.^^ This is urgent. This should be your number one goal right now.

    Losing weight will not make you happy; you'll still be the same person on the inside.

    Getting a girlfriend will not make you happy; you'll constantly wonder why she's with you and if she's looking for something better. Deep down you'll despise her because if you don't respect yourself, how can you respect someone who's with you? You might think "no I'd worship her and treat her like a queen for being with me" but that's not the way it works. And it's a hell of a burden to put on someone, to make them responsible for your happiness.

    Depression untreated will make you question and, eventually, undermine, every bit of success you attain in every aspect of your life.

    Like a few posters above I also dated guys much heavier than myself. My first bf in hs was 300 and I was 110. He was well dressed, clean, extremely respectful unlike other hs boy his age and great personality. After years of dating we went our separate ways but it wasn't until he lost all that weight and his personality changed. He wasn't himself anymore. I didn't care about the weight I wanted him. Now currently dating (Head over Heels in love 7 years) a guy 258 and at my age all I'm more worried about is his health at that weight. It's very important that you take care of yourself, eat right and get some exercise.
    Be just as kind to yourself as you are to others.

    I read your post and I think you are a sweet person for trying to encourage this guy but more times than not nice guys finish last. I have see it so many times that it has become a cliché. Most women say they want a nice guy who will treat them good but what they end up dating is a guy on a motorcycle with tattoos, and a criminal record,who drinks heavy and teats them like crap.

    Then tell the boy the truth without the mollycoddling ;)

    I truly believe what I said. I know so many amazing women who aren't concerned with how a man looks but they do care about who he really is, his morals, his actions and what he believes in.

    Thanks for being polite with your comment. Lot more than some people.
    I'll still stick to what I believe to be true. Not all of us care so much about looks; looks are fleeting. Not all of us care about money; to those ones telling him to get rich. Money will attract the wrong kind of women, the kind who don't have their own ambitions and goals and who can't make it on their own. I mean, people should do whatever makes them happy without harming others. But I believe that he hasn't met the right woman and that's not something you can force or hurry.
