Okay, well what about the girl in the picture example I provided. Would you still date someone with stretch marks who looked like hers if she had a nice face and great personality?

For me stretch marks and cellulite are no big deal or dealbreaker on women, as long as its not excessive. Provided also she is in decent enough shape. I'm heavily into fitness myself.

They can be treated with cocoa butter and other things... Prep H tightens up the skin (bodybuilders use it)

I personally wouldn't know until the clothes came off, but I can't say what I would do.... probably not be interested.

OP, I would just say to stay on your weight loss journey and be the best you that you can be. I am not sure what kind of relationship you are looking for, but I would venture to say you may want to find someone who can accept you for who you are. Not one who will judge your imperfections. If it's not one thing, it will certainly be another.

BTW, stretch marks are not disgusting to poster imokay. Your very own mother may even have them from being pregnant with you..... Many of them become without color and hard to notice.

But for those people who are perfect, I can see where they would be a problem.

I'm not sure why this was moved to exercise and fitness. While it does talk of it, the basic of the question is about dating and appearance.

This is truly a general misconception by most people. Stretch marks can't be "gotten rid of," or "cured." They are there for life. You could tan and lighten them up some, but unless you get a tummy tuck, you're stuck with them for life.

Like someone said earlier, I wouldn't know all of this until your clothes came off & in order for them to come off I would have to be attracted to only what I could see before the clothes came off. Now once the clothes come off and you combine the nice booty and face & personality, then I really wouldn't care about the stretch marks bc it's about the complete package.
