Fat Outta Friend Zone

I'm bigger than I've ever been before.



It doesn't take a genius to see that I'm overweight. I guess that's what happens when you eat whatever you want to, when you want to and do little or no exercise, over a long period of time. Yeah, well...it's caught up with me and it's just not a good look.

So what does this have to do with dating? Everything. The people I want to date, don't want to date me. The people that want to date me, I don't want to date. Bigger guys want to date me...but I'm just not interested. But more fit guys don't want to date me. I'm either "awesome" or "a great friend". Yeah, I've been friend zoned more than once. Obviously, I keep getting into the friend zone because there's no connection or attraction.

And from some of them...I can only think that it's because of my weight. If I was smaller, would they be attracted to me? I'm pretty sure that if I was a cheerleader for an NFL team, I'd have no problem getting out of the friend zone with some of these guys.

So now, I'm challenging myself. I'm going to hold myself accountable to losing this weight. And then I'm going to see. I'm going to see how many of these guys take me out of the friend zone and into the dating zone. How important is appearance? I'm going to find out...I want to know the TRUTH about physical appearance and how much of an impact it has on one's decisions.
