How insensitive some people are!
It doesn’t bother me. They know how miserable I am single, and they are just trying to help.
Maybe though its because she’s comfortable in her own skin. If your comfortable with yourself, no matter what your weight you might have an easier time attracting someone. But if your not comfortable with who you are its obvious. This being said I don’t think its fair to call someone shallow just because they want to be attracted to their spouse. I mean to be quite frank if your going to be with someone for the rest of your life, why not be attracted to them. Of course though things change and so do looks as well. But there’s nothing wrong with wanting to be attracted to the person your with.
This is so true. There’s nothing quite as attractive as the glow of a woman who’s smiling and genuinely having fun.

In my case, yes. Catholic men tend to act worse than secular men. Catholic men have no use for me (since I don’t turn them on). But from a secular man’s view, they could in theory, sleep with me. I would show them my kick boxing moves before that would happenFor the single women in this thread…are you mainly dating or seeking to date Catholic men? Are these your experiences with Catholic men? If so, that troubles me that their behavior is no different than secular men. (superficial) I know attraction is important–it exists between my husband and me…but, it seems like some of the Catholic women in this thread are being turned down before even given a chance based on age and looks by Catholic men, am I reading that right?
My guess is that Catholic men act worse than secular men because secular men aren’t necessarily looking for that one, life long partner. Catholic men are going into the relationship hunt with the knowledge that they can’t divorce and remarry, so they might be more interested in finding the “perfect” woman.In my case, yes.

Want to trade problems? I get rejected because I’m overweight.
No one can win. In high school, my friends and I wished we could do fat transplants. *That is a fascinating point, seriously. Hadn’t thought of that. But, should women be looking for the perfect man, too? There are no perfect people…and the divorce rate for Catholics is up there. So, something is off with the whole picture. *
I wouldn’t be surprised if Catholic women were pickier than secular women. The inability to divorce and remarry puts a lot of pressure on both sexes to find the one that will last.
I WANT A PERFECT MAN! Can cook, dance, clean, sing, have a Phd, likes cats, will never grown old or gain weight, be rich, not cocky, knows how to have mind blowing sex, have nice car, not a workaholic. This is fun! Now I can reject guys becasue they don’t fit the list.
HA HA HA Or maybe I should disappear on them?*That’s sad, to me. I guess why I scratch my head is this…I literally bumped into my husband at a party once upon a time…lo and behold, he was a practicing Catholic, and we hit it off. I guess with all the dating sites out there now that narrow down the search for men and women who are Catholic, why are people having trouble finding that special person? Not that Catholic is the only criteria…there has to be more to bond two people together. But, what I’m saying is…being a devout Catholic, if someone doesn’t have the perfect body, should hold more weight. People seeking perfection shouldn’t get married…wow, they’ll be in for a rude awakening, which is probably why the divorce rate is so high these days, in all circles. It’s just hitting me after scrolling through these threads lately, how dire the situation is. *In my case, yes. Catholic men tend to act worse than secular men.

*There are? How do you know? I’m curious. That’s interesting. I think Catholic single women should move to Alaska, isn’t the woman to man ratio like…1:10?
*As far as I know, statistically women are more likely to be religious and more likely to be conservative than men. (Conversely the atheist/agnostic crowd has more men than women.)*There are?
