Fruits are full of vitamins and minerals and antioxidants etc plus they just taste good! Absolutely nothing wrong with stuffing yourself with those. Balance it out with some protein and healthy fats and you're good to go.

That's impressive and sounds like a lot of fun for each of you and both of you - if that makes sense.

As an one who spent 6 years in a call center, 9 years in an office and 3 years driving over the road, I can second what's been said previously about each of those.

With the office, it depends. A small office with a few diet obsessed skinny coworkers might not work as well as a small office where several are already chubby or where they are very social and like to take lunch together or have a pot luck on Fridays. Call centers are stressful and you're tied to a phone. Comfort food rules. :-) Most important thing though, is to do something you enjoy. If you interview, arrive a bit early and observe the other workers and the work environment. Be around the area at lunch time or the end of the workday and observe the activity. Might even ask someone if it's a good place to work and why. I've done that numerous times when considering a job change. :-)

One thing I've learned in life is its pretty much how you position it and what you say. Perhaps it could be a positive thing. Will you dress nicely and walk upright, with pride and confidence, or dress dumpy and slobby and act accordingly? How others see you, including her peers, will affect how much, as well as what, is said to her. If she can respond in the right way, that you're doing it on purpose to see what it's like, or because her mom enjoys a bigger guy, it should eliminate most of the ridicule and it might even open their eyes to something new and different, that being big isn't always bad, and in some cases, is even desirable. Perhaps some of those kids will discover that interest in themselves later in life and trace it back to a friend they had in school, who's dad gained weight on purpose.

If she figures out your hiding it from her, that will send a completely different message. One you may not have intended to send. If she were to end up a little chubby at some point in the future, she may feel like it's a bad thing and feel compelled to hide it too. I think keeping it out in the open and being honest with her is probably the best long term strategy. Keep it age appropriate, of course, but really, there is no reason to assume it automatically has to be a negative change for her. Heck, ask her upfront sometime, she if she has any thoughts on it. Or if you gain a little before saying anything, encourage her to speak freely and share her thoughts and feelings when the topic inevitably comes up.

I agree with flyinghorse. How did your evening go? Over time, her emotional reaction may subside. Perhaps the two of you can explore why she has such strong feelings on the matter. From her reaction, I would guess someone to her said something to her that became a defining moment. I once read a comment here by someone that reached for a cookie when she was 4. Her grandfather scolded her saying "You don't want that. You'll get fat." That single comment sent her into a life of anorexia and nearly killed her. Fortunately she got help and overcame it and was able to enjoy getting fat now. Maybe your gf has a ghost from her past still haunting her.

Work with your gf - carefully, and gently. It'll be a process that takes time... probably a long time. Good luck and keep us posted :-)

Someone referenced this thread and I'm just now seeing the last post. Any girl (but especially a fat one!) being swallowed by any thing is something I want to see! Thank you for mentioning it! It's not a movie I would normally watch.

I've always thought of this as a social interaction site, centered around a mutual interest. I've never thought of this as much of a dating site. Perhaps others see it more as a dating site? Perhaps the site has a dual role?

That said, I've had two girls I was dating in real life who were trying to fatten me. One more openly, the other very subtly but unmistakable. Neither were online in communities like this and probably would never feel the need to seek out a community like this, even if they knew they existed. Just something they enjoy without feeling the need to discuss it with others. I've met a LOT of girls that like bigger men, so it may be more common than we think, they just aren't on here discussing it, and may not even be aware of it as a fetish.

No LOL it's not just you. :-) At least not on this site. You are among like minded individuals here.

I always wonder how many others feel that way but haven't found a site like this to explore it. How did you find this?
