ha anyone had any issues with excess skin, especially around the belly that prevents dating?

Well, I do have loose skin on my thighs and stomach. My butt is also kinda saggy now. I am sure it has an impact on dating but I am already married.

Why do you feel like that it prevents you from dating?

... I don't think it'd be an issue. I mean, a lot of women who have children have loose skin from their pregnancy and have no issue with dating, so I don't think it'd be a problem. That's how I look at it anyway... and I use my sister as my reference as she had a lot of loose skin and stretch marks from her first pregnancy and she had no trouble with her love life. She's now happily married and pregnant with her third child (just as reference, my eldest niece is 11. The younger is 1. My sister and her husband have been together for 4 years so... yeah, she did date and had two semi-serious relationships before she met her husband).
