My type has changed so much over the past few years it's ridiculous. I don't even know what my type is anymore. Which is probably a good thing, because my type used to be very specific. Now, I have a whole new pool of men to fish in!! laugh

I'm still a sucker for a good smile, a good sense of humor, and bit of mischief in his soul. :wink:

My late husband was not the kind of man I would have gone for in the physical sense as he was obese. He was however nice looking with blonde hair and mischievous, twinkling blue eyes. We w orked together and deep feelings developed. He had a kind and gentle manner, became my rock until illness reversed that role and I became his rock.

We were an odd looking couple. He was 6ft tall and huge. I am 5ft tall and very slim.

We were together 12 years, married for 7 of them.

His weight killed him in the end. He couldn't leave food alone - it was an addiction with him despite my efforts to get him to slim down. Like an alcoholic he would binge on junk food in his car and try and hide the evidence. The medical profession tried but to no avail.

My husband died a few days after his 57th birthday.

I have had men show an interest in me on some dating sites. Many of them are grossly overweight. Rightly or wrongly I do not reply to them.

I have seen what obesity can do. It has made me very afraid to get involved with an overweight man regardless of how nice that person is.

If I should ever be lucky enough to meet someone else, then he will have to be average sized to slim and have a kind, humerous personality.

Maybe I want too much now :(

Corky, no, youre just guarded and practical. Who knows maybe another obese man will show up and outlive the healthy guys.

My brother in law was extremely healthy. He trained olympic track teams. He died of a heart attack at 46.


When my husband was in hospital a young man was brought in. He was 19 years old, didn't smoke or drink, was very athletic and led a very healthy lifestyle. He had a massive heart attack. Our local hospital stabilised him then transferred him to a specialist hospital.

One thing I learned was that heart disease is no respecter of age or lifestyle but overweight men now fill me with dread.

I know I could never date an obese man again.

Obese=Average in today's world. So many people in society believe a size 12 is morbidly obese. Its more than half this country actually. Oh and was the "accepted" size of old Hollywood actresses from the '20s to the late '60s. Lot of this madness starts when peeps believe what they're told by the media. I say think for yaself. Life is damn short to limit yourself. Being skinny and buff does NOT necessarily mean its all that attractive. Least for my taste. I personally do not have a body type when it comes to men. Its all about being healthy and comfortable in your own skin. Quit listening to Madison Avenue so much.

My late husband was 25 1/2 st (360 lbs). Because of it he was a Type II diabetic and had 2 major heart attacks and heart failure. He was fitted with a CRT-D device which is a double pacemaker with a defibrillator. Even with that he could only walk for a few yards and would have to sit down. He was told after his first heart attack in 2004 that if he didn't lose a lot of weight he would risk another major and possibly fatal heart attack. He chose to ignore the advice he was given. Heart failure is a horrible thing for the person who has it because apart from them not being able to do the everyday things most of us take for granted, they can't even lie down to sleep as the heart can't push the blood and fluid round the body and it backs up into the tissues in the lungs so they can't breathe either. In effect, they start drowning in their own body fluid. Believe me it is heartbreaking to watch.

For myself, I'm lucky in-so-much that I'm naturally very slim and I can eat what I want but I do eat healthy, proper food and not junk food. My late husband had a liking for junk food and would eat, for example a whole large pizza himself when he was at work. He ate himself to death. Even his own father tried to tell him. His father is 90 and still alive.

I'm afraid, because of what happened I will steer well clear of fat men, and by fat I don't mean a little overweight as many people can become but with sensible eating and some exercise can fix but morbidly obese as in life-threatening.

The obese I'm talking about isn't the "average" type in today's world but the type that really does kill.

No need to justify your preferences. We all have them.

Must eat chips layered in a sandwich.
AND not eat all the M&Ms.



When I still ate bread and all that jazz, Doritos on a sandwich was the bomb. It's not just a taste thing, it's all about the textures.

Personality and Sense of humour. Looks are not all that important but there would have to be some sort of physical attraction there. Don't really have an age limit, I don't think about it much.

that does not seem unreasonable to me - if a partner was a drug addict or an alcoholic - we often do not reply to those types because we don;t want to come in 2nd place to an addiction again much less deal with all of the destructive issues

I don't see that your situation is any different

For me, it differs between if it's for desiring a relationship or it it's for something more brief.
If it's a relationship, I want someone intelligent, open-minded, sexual, affectionate, probably off-beat, who likes the outdoors and animals, who has agreeable taste in music (more important than it may sound), and being kind of "geeky" would be best... that good stuff. There's no particular ethnicity or anything like that, but body type would probably slender to medium weight. I'm pretty lean, I feel like I'd be best with someone that matches to that.
Ideally. I suppose.

For something brief, there's much less standards, but they do still exist in some form, I know that much.

When looking at women's size charts there seem to be several standards. Very confusing. A twelve in one "seems" to be an eight in another:

1. U.S. Standard Women's Sizes
2. Women's Sizes 5'5" to 5'6" tall, average bust, average back
3. Women' Pants Size
4. International Size Chart for Women (USA)

When you are quoting a size 12 which standard were you using? Men's seem to be simple: waist times inseam length. I know women have differing body shapes but so do men. Why so many differing standards?
