  • Ah, great idea. My M.O. In the past has been to lose weight, pick up a loser, gain weight, drop the loser, repeat. Uggggggg, hopefully now I can drop that behavior and feel like I can offer a guy mo

Wish there was a magic pill or whatever to make this whole date crap not so very craptastic. But at least we can chat with eachother.

I'm single too and it kind of sucks and kind of doesn't. It sucks when you're lonely and you just want "your person"' date=' the one that is yours and you share the highs and lows of life with. It doesn't suck when you have to hear all the horror stories from others about the sh*tty side of dating.

However, better a sh*tty day in paradise than working right? Lol.

And it's all well and good that I'm under 200 now, down 117 since surgery (11/20/12) but try still being almost 6 feet tall. I will NEVER be petite and guys want small, which I cannot change my height so that leaves me S.O.L.

And BTW acting nurse...you should have no problem whatsoever. Very handsome indeed.[/quote']

I hear ya. My married friends seem to think Im living the life...Sex and the City style. I do go out from time to time and I really enjoy owning all pf my time, but there are those moments when it just gets rough!

On another note, by now acting nurse probably has a girlfriend. Lol.

Living sex in the city style sounds fun as long as I get to be Samantha lol Jk

I am finally confident enough with myself that I have started to date again. WOW! Now that I am loosing weight, I am finding men that want a full figured woman, and the fact that I am loosing weight and plan on continuing to do so is a deal breaker to them!!! Really???? Has anyone else experienced this?

I've dated many guys who aren't into thin women. It's not really uncommon

Lol where'd that come from? And nope!

It's because I said you should have no problem getting a lady. You are very handsome and seem very nice from the posts you make. So it's assumed you must have someone.

Oh missed it :) sorry! And THANK YOU :)

You're welcome.

I've been single for over 10 years, and I am completely aware of the fact that while some of it has to do with my weight, quite a bit also has to do with my attitude toward men (distrust, bitchiness, etc).

I've tried online dating to no avail...out here in the Bay Area, super-skinny gals get all of the attention. My online dating experiences have either led to socially awkward guys who are afraid to look at me over dinner (and then want to split the bill) or guys who act like they're looking for a relationship, then end up wanting sex with a fat chick because our low self-confidence tends to make us an easy lay. Apologies for the bluntness, but this has happened more than once.

I was sleeved on 8/19 and am working hard not only on getting healthy, but also adjusting my attitude toward men. It's very difficult to change your thinking when you've literally never had an experience with men your age where they haven't ignored you or treated you poorly. I do want a relationship, and I love being someone's girlfriend...it's just a matter of changing my state of mind. It'll be tough, but I'm up for the challenge! :)

Dating just plain sucks. Online dating was an epic fail for me. Most guys I meet are tools and I work with preschool kids all day. I don't meet many people my age that way. So, for the time being I'm doing my own thing and if something comes a long I will take the chance then.

Do heels count? Lol. And let me clarify another item...where are you located? I guarantee its not florida!! Haha. It's just hard for women.

Hey now... don't think all Florida guys are that way! Some of us are tall and like tall women :)

I've yet to meet any. I'm just saying. Lol. And it's not like I'm not out and about either.

Actingnurse's picture looks like a country music stars album cover.

Sorry for the random comment.

I can understand. Meeting the right person isn't easy from either side of the aisle.
