To think people treat you differently when you’re thin?

[definitelybothered]

A few years ago I lost a lot of weight. At my lightest I was 7 stone - it probably went too far and wasn’t sustainable as I gained most of it back again.

But what I noticed was how differently I was treated by others. Colleagues and strangers seemed to be more considerate - people at work changed towards me and didn’t seem to want to offend or upset me. People in public seemed more polite and courteous. But when I gained weight it’s gone back to how it was before. Has anyone else experienced something like this?

It’s because slim people are more attractive and people like attractive people more.

I’ve noticed that people dislike big sized people, like they resent how much space they take up, as if it’s inherently impolite to be bigger. I actually think people dislike bigger cars too.
