Single Bandsters

How do you feel about being single and waiting to lose the weight and find someone special? Do you ever wonder if you'll find someone who is banded and have a relationship with them? How does all this effect the way your interpret relationships?

I would love to have a relationship with someone who has the lapband.

1. We could go out to eat and share 1 plate (hahaha)...saves the wallet.

2. They would understand the struggle.

3. They would be more likely to exercise with me and understand when I don't want to exercise.

I'm not gonna lie, finding someone with the band wouldn't be too bad. hahaha.

Plus, as the person before mentioned, it would be a little cheaper. haha.

I think meeting someone with the band would be great. I don't have too many friends my age with bands so it would be nice to meet someone with a band so we could share in eachothers struggles.

I wouldnt say I waited to loose my weight before I started looking for a relationship, but as I lost weight, my confidence in myself increased and I ended up meeting more guys

As for finding a guy who also had a band, thatd be awesome, or even someone who is or once was heavy..just so they can understand my emotional baggage more..so if anyones interested here I am! haha maybe we can make personal ads...heres mine

It would be great to meet someone with a band. It would make life a little easier. They would understand why I can't eat certain foods and can't drink beer. They would understand the commitment I've made to this lifestyle.

It is nice to dream!

It has been over 10 years since I've been in a relationship, so I've been single for a long time. But it doesn't affect how I interpret relationships. It would be cool though to have that common ground with somebody special. It doesn't have to be someone with a band. I'd just like to meet somebody period.

I was a tad lost as do you mean they are all relative...as in losing weight will help find someone special?

I feel great about being single.

I feel great I've lost the weight.

I'd like to find someone special but don't mind if I never do.

I wouldn't mind it a bit if I dated someone who has a band.

Being banded has not effected the way I interpret relationships at all....save for relationship with food. That's changed.

nahh I was just ramblin...I mean being single and waiting on someone special in general...not just cause we're losing weight...even though that gives more confidence (not that I need anymore lol) but anyway I just think it'd be awesome to have someone in my life that really has the same interests as well as the same "cured" struggle. I would totally date a bandster haha!! And not just cause it's cheaper...just cause we can relate and we know each other on a deeper level than most...the stripped emotional vunerable level!

I just saw this thread. It would be amazing finding someone with a band. I am trying to start dating again for the first time in a long time. Haven't gone on a date in probably 18 months at least.
