[quote=Anonymous]I say - don't drop your requirement that the men you date be intelligent and well educated.  However, there are many good colleges that are not Ivy Leagues.  Many people go to their state school for financial reasons.  Many state schools are superb.  U. Calif; U. Michigan; U. Wisc; etc. So you should probably expand your horizons in that manner.

Also, I think you should seriously consider making a huge effort to lose weight.  I know this is easier said than done but so many men won't see past an overweight gal.  If you really and truly want to get married and have kids, you have to work like heck to lose the weight sorry to say.  Do it now.  Don't wait until you are age 40 and life has passed you by.  I know two women who lost a bunch of weight in their mid 40's after not dating very much their whole lives. They were mad at themselves and finally determined to do it and they did but they lost out on having relationships in their 20's and 30's and early 40's.  (They didn't feel comfortable dating while chubby and/or they did not attract men. And these are wonderful funny smart women.)

200 is not terrible -- it is not like you are starting out at 250 or 300 - but if you were able to get down to a size 14 or less (say 170), your dating pool will expand greatly. You don't need to get to 120 which is impossibly hard but something more reasonable.

Finally, seek out less attractive geeky type men...Engineers!  Computer guys!  Science nerds! [/quote]
