When you really like someone for who they are on the inside, but are turned off by the body
What are your thoughts on this?
Those are what we call "FRIENDS". Nothing wrong with being friend zoned. I have had quite a few really cool chick friends in my lifetime who are overweight who NEVER became more than friends because, well, no matter how cool/great/awesome they are, their fatness completely eliminates them from ever ever ever ever being more than just a friend. That is just how it is. In order to qualify for more than friendship I must be physically attracted to them, and overweight/obese women just don't do it for me romantically, emotionally, sexually, etc. So friend zoned they are.
If you're not attracted to someone, more times than not it's not going to lead to anywhere. I had a coworker who realized only one guy was really attracted to her and she had already had some history dating him in the past. She told me that she wasn't super attracted to him, but they were both 37, single, no children, and both relatively outgoing. In the end, there was other commonalities there, but it didn't change the fact that she wasn't all that attracted to him once his clothes came off. He wasn't overweight, but wasn't cut. They ended up breaking up, because the attraction never grew for her. We can say all day that someone's options are thin, but you can never say someone's options are zero till they're dead. Till then, people do have the right to make any decision they want, no matter how out of left field we may think it is.
My thought is he is a chickens*** who prefers his women ugly so they won't leave him.
I think some of you are being a bit too hard on this guy. It's not unheard of to date someone we're not completely physically attracted to because they have other good qualities. Sometimes we might stay with them too long hoping that things will change or because we can't get what we really want. Women do this too.

No, the OP says that he likes thin women. Not that he was perfectly happy with this woman when she was 140 lbs. heavier. Sounds like he was never all that physically attracted to her before or after the weight loss.

I think that's more of a woman thing, most men don't think or choose women that. Unless they're just desperate for any female attention.

Well substitute the word "date" for "have sex with." Men do have sex with women who they aren't completely physically attracted to if that's all that's available.

Well dating and having a relationship with somebody vs just having sex are two different things. Would I sleep with somebody that I didn't think was attractive? Yes . Would I want to be in a relationship with that person? No.

Men are often motivated to get into relationships because they want sex. Maybe the guy in the OP isn't the type of guy who can get it casually, so he felt like he had to get in a relationship to get sex. Even if the woman wasn't his ideal woman.
