I’m curious what kind of changes, other than physical, you noticed if you were slim/fit/etc. and got fat.

For example socially, romantically/dating, professionally.

I’m currently fit and on the verge of going all out with gaining, but would like to know what to expect.

I am gaining weight pretty fast and was very slim before I started to pile on pounds. Apart from the physical changes such as bigger tighs that rubbing each other, bigger arms and bouncing belly. You will feel your clothes getting smaller and tighter. Professionally nothing changed really, while certainly people noticed my gain no one has told anything. Women are more comfortable with you, but seriously mostly everything is the same except the physical noticeable difference which is your growing body.

What do you mean by women are more comfortable with you?

Good to hear the other aspects turn out well too.

Well, since I got bigger belly, my female colleagues are not shy about eating together. Before that, they were sitting alone during lunch.

I’ve notice people “making sure your okay” a lot. Whether it’s while walking, eating, ect. You start getting treated like you can’t help yourself and others have to.

I’ve also noticed dating wise that a lot more attention is given but no one wants to admit it or be seen in public with a heavy guy!

Thinking back, I do remember a friend who gained weight and would get comments like that.

What kind of attention is given more in terms of dating?

With dating I’ve noticed a lot of girls I use to know who are big gym goers want to talk or watch movies at a house but never want to be seen in public.

Were these girls you previously dated, or just girls you knew?

I wonder how getting bigger might affect meeting new people.

The main thing you need to work on is your confidence.
Gaining weight is just asking for comments and you will get them for people that are closest to you.
Lots of things change so there is no way any of us know what will happen to you as far as relationships.
Hopefully you will find a girl that is into chubby /fat guys.
Keep in mind gaining weight can be a very slow process so most people will be slow to notice.

It's much harder to find variety in plus sized clothing, and its always more expensive! I love being fat but its such a bummer that the clothes that fit my aesthetic are few and far between when it comes to even just 2XL and up. You'll definitely sweat more, it's very likely you'll lose a lot of fitness if you don't keep on top of that. Also, becoming fat means suddenly having to be concerned with the weight limits of things such as bed frames, chairs, theme park rides, hammocks. A lot of things.
