They don't need to gain weight in the Midwest , they're more often overweight by birth

Stop saying 50 pounds overweight!!!!! She has a BMI over 30 and is clinically obese. She is unhealthy and will have shorter lifespan with limited physical activities. Who wants that except someone with a BBW fetish.
WOW, Just WOW.

Is that still the case? I know it was back when I was single in the 90s. Sometimes I think I settled because of it
DC is a VERY hard dating market.
I'm a single guy who relocated to DC for work.
The women in DC are unreasonably picky. They call it having "standards" and being "uncompromising."
Dates often felt like interviews where questions are coded methods of figuring out my current and potential earning power and my social status. Everything was being judged during the dates (my choice of location, activity, day of week, time, etc.) if things were not chosen just right there was ghosting and sometime the snide remark. Their attitude often gave the impression that I, as a person, was a secondary consideration in their evaluation. After 2 years of dating locally I gave up and did the online thing and found a great woman to date that doesn't live in DC.
Me: STEMs Undergrad & Masters, MBA, Speaks two languages, 5'11'' 180lbs reasonably good looking... in DC I'm deficient.

You deserve what you can make happen. Well, that plus you also deserve not to get bloodied up by a cop for staying in your paid-for airplane seat.

We all get what we deserve?

+1 Why do women dig their heels in on this issue?
I have a friend a lot like yours, OP. And she almost defiantly eats her face off because she thinks she deserves to be loved for who she is inside. I admit I don't have the guts to tell her point blank she is flushing her own romantic future down the toilet because toxic pride.
+2. It's only for a season. Once she gets the guy she can put the weight back on.
Why is the assumption here that they stuff their face or eat unhealthy? I'm overweight. NOT one person who's lived with me or been my friend understands why. I eat a 90% vegetarian diet. I don't carbs for most of my meals. I have a couple of health issues that make it impossible to maintain weight unless I exercise at least an hour a day of cardio and 20 minutes of weights AND maintain my eating and DON'T drink. Well, I can maintain my eating, but I like drinking with friends and i don't always want to go to the gym. But I'm not sitting on my overweight ass eating burgers and fries, most of my lunches are salads without weird dressings and fat rich toppings. This is my body, and I'm done hating it and battling it. If you don't like me, fine, plenty of men and women do. But this assumption is so bullshit.

And who want's to have sex with an unattractive lazy spouse?
The standard outcome in those cases is the other spouse winds up cheating.
Do you think you deserve more?Really?
Yes, I do. Because I invest sustained effort into my relationship.
This includes working on my physical appearance.
It does get harder as I get older, and so I ..... just work harder: control diet, regular cardio and lifting weights.
For a woman, that's easy: just don't gain weight!
Why are you fighting so hard for the right to get fat without repercussions?
Beyond the relationship, don't you actually care how you look?
