Of course you’re not hopeless. The people who have written are correct. Eventually you’ll find someone. However, I must defend my fellow men. It’s true that we’re visual creatures, so that the first thing we see is the body. I’m like most men and am attracted to thinner women (I’m 5’6′ and 115 lbs.). Most men won’t consider you because weight in our culture is important for a variety of reasons, such as health, activity levels and image. That last reason is shallow, but image in our society counts for much, because in our fast-paced life, we only get glimpses of things before passing them, so those sites better be worth seeing.
