Is it possible for someone to be into me even though I'm fat?

[confusedyoungthing]

I'm a 24 year old female.
Over the last few years I have put on a lot of weight. I am 215 lbs (15 5st) and wear UK size 18-20 clothes. Yes I know there are people bigger than me out there, however I also have an extremely large chest (38GG) which makes me appear very top heavy and disproportionate. I also feel as though this weight has snuck up on me and I am not used to being 'the fat one' even though I have to accept now that I am.
I got into my last relationship when I was thin and put on some weight during that but even more since we broke up. Now I have met somebody that I'm quite interested in but I feel as though there's no way they could possibly be interested in a fat girl like me?

@JesusMaryAndJosepheen if you think that any of the women in the nude paintings I shared above are based on male models I think you probably need to spend a bit more time looking at real people

They are all super feminine

No one has any idea what the so-called "willendorf Venus" is meant to represent or who it was made by or if it has anything to do with fertility.

These are urban legends with no basis in paleoanthropology or archaeology.

Obviously people find all different types of bodies attractive but the idea that cultural ideals have been obese bodies or that slim women of a healthy weight have not generally been considered the ideal of feminine beauty has absolutely no grounding in history.

I read that article. It's hardly scholarly, is it?

Also, there is a distinct difference between 'curvaceous' (like the Rokeby Venus or Botticelli's Venus) and obese (like Rubens' women).

I really don't want to engage with your attempt at a 'Gotcha'. I distrust your motives.

Lol. What possible 'motive' could I have? I posted on the thread to counter the absolute ahistorical nonsense posted by another poster, to the effect that overweight/obese women have been the standard of beauty 'until the last two hundred years'. They really haven't.

This might help you next time you try to engage in discussing a subject with someone.

Have a great Christmas :)

Yes, very common in the real world.

Of course people can be interested! Your personality is what matters and besides, people have all different tastes when it comes to who and what they find attractive physically. For example, I exclusively find overweight men attractive. You should never worry so much about how you look! I bet you are stunning :)

My ex wanted a fat woman and was actually critical of me being slim!

His ULTRA SKINNY brother has a girlfriend with a HUGE bottom, we are talking mega wide and it is not fake and it is bigger than twice the size of Kim Kardashian, she barely fits on a normal chair... she rocks tracksuits and has massive cellulitic dimples that you can see through the lyrca, massive breasts, HUGE legs and he LOVES her. Her bottom is like a continent in its own right. And let me tell you she acts like a queen, like butter would not melt in her mouth. She LOVES HERSELF. She snubbed me when she met me, flicked her long hair and pouted, I was just like WTF this woman is teaching me a lesson to LOVE MYSELF. Fake nails, caked on make-up, she was NOT hiding away, let me tell you.

So love yourself woman, because it is horses for courses. Love yourself like your life depends on it. This lady certainly taught me that!!!!

Thanks all, you've said some nice things and given me some confidence and advice. I appreciate it.
I do believe I am super ugly too though. Not just saying that to be negative, just being honest about what I see.
Thanks again
