Great article, thanks for posting!

'Sticker' atm, working on the brusher part though

I prefer girls shorter then me. Don't know why, but I find it hard to be attracted to a women that is (way) taller. I'm not very tall at 5'10" - 5'11" or so, so it has proven to be an issue in the past ...

Same here. Allthough gaining doesnt have to be part of the relationship, I could not imagine being with a skinny girl ...

I haven't noticed much in my direct environment actually, but I think I'm just starting to care less and less what the world thinks. Instead I find myself more motivated to eat even more after gaining weight during the holidays.

I gained back most of those 35 pounds now, not sure where I´ll stop, but I´m really enjoying myself at the moment!

I want to be so stuffed I´m drowsy and can only sit back with my pants unbuttoned, then a girl rubbing my belly and whispering ´come on, just one more bite´ in my ear.

Let's see ... I was 170 two weeks ago, about 176 now, aiming for 180 this year and 190 till my birthday late januari. Probably way optimistic, but we'll see

Well, I'm pretty sure I gained a pound or 2 in the last 2 days. No longer have a scale, so I have no clue to know for sure except the fact that my pants feel tight.

I've been undecided about that for years ... After gaining some weight, loosing it again, rinse and repeat for two of three times, I now know I don't want to be skinny ever again. Being at least somewhat bigger is way more fun. On the other hand, I also know that I will unlikely get very big unless I would be in a relationship with someone who supports and/or enjoys me bigger.

I can definately emphasize what LadyEjkua suggests: gain some, like 20-30 pound and see if you like it better then being thinner. Not just your personal preference, but whether or not you can tolerate the reactions of people around you.
