Thank you for the reply.
Background? Fair question...
When entering a potential long term "normal" relationship, the partners might ask themselves if they (realistically) could find a better spouse than they have right now. They can keep on looking, or "settle" for the one they have, with some shortcomings. It could be that the partner is not ideal physically, a bit lazy, or does not share as many interests etc.
However, we expect the couple to have VARIATIONS of the same, "normal" sexual preferences.
For the "unmatching couples", feeder + non feedee, it is not the same. FA and feeder are not variations on a theme, they are conceptully different. Same with BBW vs feedee. There are SO MANY bigger women that really just want to be thin, or at least unaffected by their calorie intake. However, many feedees want to actively gain, never lose weight.
So why should these "unmatching couples" even get together? Are these people sexually happy? Both of them? If not, what happens?
It's not a bad question. However, due to the nature of this site, you'll need to be patient with the response. Alternatively, you can also ask this question in other feedist spaces.
Expanding on that, I'm sexually attracted to a wide array of body types. So, not having a feedee as a partner isn't a big deal for me.
I remember the first fat guy I actively pursued. When we met, he was rather shy and couldn't believe that someone like me would be attracted to him. He was extremely insecure about his weight, when I, a beautiful and athletic woman showed interest in him, he started working out and losing weight.
I was a bit disappointed when the belly went down, but I was still extremely attracted to him. I was happy not indulging in feedism with him and just never told him.
The relationship ended amicably, but had nothing to do with fetishes or the lack thereof. Rather, we both got busy and no longer had any time for each other.
