BigBallBellyGirl:
I have some very good friends who know there is a sexual component to my size and eating habits; with some, I've spoken of it, although not in great detail to non-feedists.

My parents know I'm happy with my size and do not aspire to be thin. They're not thrilled, but they also love me enough not to alienate me for it. There is a zero percent chance I'd ever discuss feedism with them

With work, my size and sexual preferences are absolutely no one's business.

All that said, my fiance probably has more friends who know about his lifestyle. He's tall, lean, and fit, and he is marrying a 500 lb.+ woman. While he has been in past relationships with some average-sized or thin women, two of his past girlfriends have been over 300 pounds. At the very least, most people who are close to him know his preferences.

Stockylove:
I was just wondering if there were a lot of people who admitted to having these fetishes or kinks to their parents, families, friends, or work colleagues. How they reacted. Did they discover it or did you tell them? How do you live this experience?

For my part, no one knows. I simply don't assume it, especially since I have a lot of kinks around gaybears and bellies in general. If I told them all about my weird big weirdo's kinks, they'd be sent to the psychiatric asylum.

PurpleJade:
I told my partner, and a friend who I don't talk to much. But I haven’t told my therapist.

I’m quiet around fetishes and really don’t talk about it. My partner recently has asked me if I would love them after they lost weight with their new injection they were approved for. The question was vague and not really as direct as I worded it. But we clearly both don't want to talk about it. That was the first time they suggested my fetish since maybe a year ago when I first brought it up.

Morbidly A Beast:
Be around a group of guys for long enough eventually the topic of fetishes/what you like comes up, and I’ll be honest it’s been tough to answer as of late it never used to be it was just you know sexy stuff hot women do now my answers are more like the awkward “you know” lol anyone with half a brain would probably connect the dots that I’m some sort of deviant but no one has caught on that I know of.

But otherwise no it’s just not anyone’s business imo unless it’s someone I’m really intimate with

HappyBigBelly:
The best of us here on the site always treat folks with the utmost respect. A few bad actors over time here and there, but it’s quite supportive. No one should be treated as though they’re “less than.”

Horror Doll:
Try being an ex feabie member

Ditzy:
I'm supportive and think everybody deserves to be happy and content.

Ditzy:
I think 90% of us feel frustration when it comes to dating at some time.
I had been on dating sites but usually when guys learned I was fat and didn't mind being fat they lost interest and thats OK .
I'm old school when it comes to dating so pretty much blah for most people with a kink.
Not being gay myself I know lots of gay men but those guys are really fussy about who they date.
Far more than a woman honestly.
I do hope you find someone because you deserve to be happy

Ditzy:
It can't be that hard to find people to date in your area.
You just have to put yourself out there and meet people.
Be open about what you are into.
That may scare some off but you just might find someone real not a profile on some kink website.
Your match isn't going to come to you so you will have to find them.

FatFalcon:
You may be right. Part of the problem is though is there isn’t very many gay men in my area. Plus it’s not easy trying to find someone who shares the kink/fetish. So it’s complicated. If I was in a larger city maybe but small towns. The chances of finding one who is into gaining and single is hard to find.

Stockylove:
Isn't there a big city near Manchester? A big city maybe an hour or two away.

FatFalcon:
There’s Lexington. But I have yet to find anyone there. Plus I have to deal with a brother who is always in a rush act.
