I dated a guy who had a "type" that he liked. A bit punk, a bit curvy, preferably with black hair cut in a bob. I know, it's incredibly specific, and not like me. While we were together, for about a year and a half, I did notice that he was really interested in chicks who had a similar look & personality combo going.
After we broke up, he soon met someone who was that exact type. They moved in together pretty quickly, and as far as I know, 20 years later, they're still together. Meant to be, I think.
Which has always left me puzzling; what was he doing with me then, when I wasn't even his type?
My ex and I were together off and on for 6 in a half years. When we were together he had this "friend" he said I had nothing to worry about. Reason to it was because he told me he wanted me to lose weight and he didn't want any kids. But after we broke up they ended up getting together and she is a lot bigger than me and has a kid. We talked for awhile after we broke up and I haven't spoke to him for 3 months now. Just confused with my own thoughts keeping me awake at night. Any help or advice would be helpful
I'm on the darker side and tall. As such, I am apparently the ice breaker for shorter, stouter, pink/red fleshy faced men. That was true in all but one case.
After my former wife left me ending our 25 year marriage she moved her boyfriend in with herself and our two minor daughters and ultimately married him. He was my polar opposite. Two years later I remarried and my wife is her polar opposite. I guess you could say we both learned from our mistakes.
I couldn't have cared less what the ex did or thought as long as her boyfriend-turned-husband was kind to my daughters and he was. The ex, on the other hand was furious that I'd found happiness with someone else and did her best to be ugly about it. Oh well!
This is something I have found to be quite interesting as I know a lot of people who go through this, myself included.
For instance say your ex was into exotic brunettes and suddenly turns to blondes or was into the typical "caucasian" (light skin, light hair) man and is suddenly dating exotic men after your break up ... How would you interpret this sudden switch? (Would you take offense ...)
After going through multiple disappointments with men who were supposedly "my type", I'm suddenly attracted to the complete opposite to the point where I no longer have any sort of sexual attraction towards these "exes". Sure, I think they're cute but quite meh. Hence, I'm quite curious.

People change. Love changes people. Love makes people more tolerant - and then maybe this becomes a problem because it is just temporary. Maybe he now has issues in this relationship because of the child. Maybe he realized he was wrong all along and now actually loves children.
He wanted you to lose weight but he loved you. So he wasn't totally against overweight women. If he was, he wouldn't have been attracted to you.
I have a friend who doesn't like dogs. Never did. Never touched my dog. For 40 years she thought dogs are stupid and need to stay outside the house.
Now she is in a relationship with somebody with a dog. The dog sleeps in their bed, she sends me tons of dog pics, finds my dog suddenly super cute and she now wants to become a dog psychologist.
Love changes people.
