[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m 51 and got back into shape recently and have been truly shocked by how women respond to me now. I was lazy about my health and needed to make a change so I did. I really didn’t want to believe that it was a matter of jealousy, but holy cow. Do other people experience this? I know, I sound arrogant, but I promise I’m not making it up. It’s not my attitude… I am kind, generous, inclusive, not braggy, etc. It feels so unfair. [/quote]

Unfair? That people look at your body when you put it in tight clothing?

What's unfair is the story you're telling yourself about what those looks may mean and the subsequent judgment(s) you're passing on your friends/acquaintances. Odds are nobody really gives half a damn about your weight loss, which may or may not even be noticeable to anyone but you, especially as you say you're getting "back into shape" which doesn't exactly scream massive weight loss.

There's nothing unfair at all about other people having opinions, especially when they're not even saying anything to you. You sound neurotic about your body shape, humblebraggy af, and kinda insufferable for claiming you're so "kind, generous, inclusive, not braggy, etc." while basically whinging "why don't people like me and praise me for existing in my own body?!!"[/quote]
