Absolutely true. Again, there is nothing wrong with a larger women preferring & being more attracted to slender guys. It's not hypocritical. If a big woman finds guys with a certain body type more attractive, more power to her! I think it's great, and I wish more big women made their feelings known like this.

I agree. Her preferences do not make her a hypocrite

If she is seriously overweight her preferences are not very realistic. Most men I know or talked to who are in shape, exercise and eat right prefer a woman who is not overweight. There are some who like overweight women but in that case they might have almost a fetishistic preference which the OP would not enjoy. As a consequence, she is single and not happy, as expected.

Agree, makes her hypocritical, unrealistic and bitter.

Not all people can lose significant amount of weight. However, everyone can lead healthier life style, exercise, be active and fit and eat right. So OP prospects will improve if she becomes more physically active, eats healthier and has a more positive outlook on life.

Sorry did I miss a post where she said she doesn't already do those things? There are plenty of people who eat right and stay active but are still overweight, and that has to do with genetic so it's a bit presumptuous to assume she eats bad and is lazy. For me personally, it is a constant struggle to stay within a normal weight range, if all I did was eat right and stayed active I'd be 20 pounds heavier than I am now. I have to eat very little, and exercise a crazy amount just to maintain a decent weight (and by decent I mean the higher end of the the normal BMI weight range for my height).

BTW same goes for my mother, her weight is a constant struggle she's normal/thin but she barely eats, to this day workouts everyday and she is 68 years old.
