Mention weight gain?

[AllHallowsEve14]

This is about my own weight gain. Someone I dated a few years ago has recently got back in touch and wants to meet up. I'd love to but I'm so scared as I weight about 2 stone more than I back then. I hate that I feel this way, but I'm stressing about it and think if I mention it at least he knows what is going to see? I know it shouldn't matter and he would be a dick if it made a difference to him but I still don't want to see a shocked/disgusted look on his face if it's avoidable.

Am I being stupid to want to slip it into conversation somehow? "Soooo, I got fat. How's your day going?"

He has seen recent full length pics but they are quite flattering and I don't think I look like that in the flesh!

Do not mention it! It makes you seem insecure. If you want to go, go.

• if he follows your SM accounts he'll see those pics too. I meant to say that it sounds like you do want to go so do not insecurity stop you.

That's what's stopping me, I don't want to seem insecure (even though I really am!) Yes I definitely want to meet him.

If he’s interested in seeing you purely for a physical liaison then he will be more interested in your willingness than what you look like!

Hold your head high and don’t mention your weight whatsoever.

I would add a few really realistic pics to your social media. That way you don't have to say anything, but he knows exactly what you look like now.
Definitely don't mention it, but I think adding more photos could be a good idea.
