So, it feels weird to ask for dating advice on a diet website? I hope it isn't inappropriate...
I'm 24 and shy. I never had a bf in high school because I was the fat, ugly girl so either no guy found me attractive or it was because I was extremely shy and never asked. In college I did date 1 guy but we broke up, obviously. He asked me and so I didn't ask him. And a friend of ours actually introduced us. It wasn't a blind date, it was more like she was my friend and his so we started sitting at the same table before class type of thing.
After we broke up was when I lost my weight. I am sure that he would have taken me back if I asked, but I'd never. He was definitely NOT Mr. Right...
So, now I am thinking it might be time to meet someone, but I have no idea how or where!!
Some friends mentioned that their current bf or husbands were all met online and maybe I should check out online dating sites. I signed up for a few but the guys who do message me are like 30+ or guys that are just looking to "hook up" and the guys whose profiles look interesting and I message, seem to not message me back. Well, actually one guy did message me back. We were just talking about likes/dislikes and then he stopped replying and I have no clue why
Part of me is very happy being single and if I never find someone....I would be fine. I like my me time, and time to myself. When I was dating the other guy, he called me a million times a day! Like what seemed every 5 minutes...I'd rather be single! lol
But then part of me would like to meet someone. And I guess I am very finicky and that might be the problem. I am looking for someone my age, in my area and I don't want someone who smokes or drinks. (the ex drank alot...) Plus, I feel bad if I judge the people who message me on their looks...but I wanted to find someone who hopefully had an interest in health and fitness like me. Who wouldn't mind if a date included going to the gym for a class together, or rock climbing, or a long hike...
So, does anyone have any good dating advice to meet people?
