Gaining

Anyone here ever had a real life encounter with a feeder or feedee?
I’ve heard that gainer/encourager meetings within the gay community are reasonably common, but I get the impression that amongst the heterosexuals real life encounters are rather rare.
So did you ever meet a feeder or feedee (depending on your interest)?
How did you get to know each other (internet, newspaper add, some other way)?
Did you have more than one meeting with him/her (friendship/ relationship)?
If so, how did your relationship develope and what role did weight-gain play in your relationship?

What about me?

Well, over the past seven years I’ve had about three real life encounters with female FA’s/Feeders, of which only one was Dutch (I’m from Holland).
Dutch women aren’t into big guys, I suppose.
Unfortunately we simply didn’t have enough in common, except for the fat preference-part. I’ve noticed that it’s hard, almost impossible to get to know someone through e-mail and/or chat.

I'm 26 year old male feeder from holland. I've met fat girls in holland, but never a feedee in holland. I think it's impossible to find feedee in holland. most women in holland that i spoke with about this subject found it hard to believe that a man could actually like a big girl, let alone find it exiting when a girl is getting bigger. Right now i'm in a sort of internet relationship with a girl from england. She's into feeding wich makes me extreemly happy, and she wants to meet me so i am hoping that that goes well.
I met her throught this site, which is why I am so very fond of this site.

I can only find feedees that are either too old, taken, insane, or fake. And the ones willing to gain are too far away. Why did I have to live in New Mexico? ._.

Hmmm...
About 330 members on this site.
So far only 6 people told us about their real life experience with feeding relationships.
Are the succes rates so low, or are people too chicken to tell us about it?

To Stella:

True! I'm just afraid that the people interested in gaining/feeding, for who it is more than just fantasy, who are really nice, good and genuine, AND are living nearby, form a subdivision that's rather close to zero.

Gee! Thanks! Wished more people would agree wtih you.

To Larger:

Ehhh...That's why I used the words reasonably common.
I'm sure that any serious gainer/feedee and/or encourager/feeder wished there were more people into it. But let's be honest, if you read the stories on BellyBuilders, Gainrweb and BeefyFrat then there are definitely more gay that straight gainer couples.

Alas, I have never had a real life encounter before. That kinda sucks don't it.

I've had two feedee/feeder relationships - both started out like any relationship, but then I discovered their passion for feeding someone else.

The first one was a successful business man. He was very much into boxing and loved hockey which he was having difficulty playing since he was approaching 400 pounds. I was 132 pounds when we started dating. I should have realized he was a feeder since most of our dates revolved around it which also put some weight on me. After several months, he confessed his obsession and I agreed to try it out. He showed me what being a feedee was. It was a very sensual realationship. So, I was his feedee for several more months, until I turned the tables and began to fatten him up. I went up to about 156 where he went up to 426. Unfortunately the relationship ended when we realized that we really didn't have enough in common.

The second one I met almost 6 months later. I had lost about 10 or 11 pounds in that time. This guy was very different. He was very thin, muscular - a real gym rat and health nut. I was actually afraid at first to put on any weight because he seemed so fixated with his own weight. I figured he'd drop me in a moment if a gained even 5 pounds. That wasn't the case.

I started noticing that it was not ok for him to gain, but very much for me. Every time I would go out with him, he'd bring me to the same Chinese buffet. He explained that there weren't many good restaurants around the area upstate where he lived. He ate sparcely, but encouraged me to always take more which I did. My appetite has always gotten the best of me. And I did start to pack on the pounds. Then one evening after a movie (popcorn and soda) and dinner (buffet), he started this tradition of feeding me Cadbury chocolates in bed. He would eat a few squares himself, but reserved the most for me. He never came out and said that he was a feeder; I'm not sure that he knew what the term was. But, he loved touching my belly when I was very full both in public and in private. I put on the 10 pounds I lost plus another six or seven. He always said I looked sexy especially after I started putting on weight. The relationship also broke up due to the fact we also had very little in common other than enjoying food.

I guess we're kindred spirits.

My ex was a feeder. Not originally, but the more I got into the fetish, the more he seemed to enjoy my enjoyment (and my growth)! It became a major part of our relationship, and I don't mind telling you that the sex DRASTICALLY improved.

My husband isn't into it, it's "not his thing", but he does still like to see me enjoy my food. I think he's an encourager in hiding.
