Three year anniversary and still no one to kiss

It has been three years since my surgery on 3/10/2003. I thought by now with my skinny body I would be madly in love. But I am scared of any man seeing my baggy skinned body. I am so lonely but I am too scared to get out there and meet someone. Any suggestions or volunteers? Other than that I feel pretty good. Please help me before I swear off loving someone again before I lose my nerve. Judi

Hi...I'd like to suggest you post also to the WLS Singles forum here at obesityhelp - it's a very active and friendly board and I'm sure you'll get a lot of responses to your questions. You can find it by clicking forums up top in the yellow bar and then choose WLS Singles from the Other Forums drop down menu. Best of luck in your endeavors! ~Tooter

Hi Judi - Congratulations on your phenonominal weight loss . One thing I've learned that I didn't realize when I was heavy is that all of us have body issues, especially women but men as well. I'm sure there is a nice man out there waiting to meet you but embarrassed of his beer belly, stretchmarks (yes, my DH has them), or hairy back (DH ditto on the hairy back, and the beer belly for that matter). When you find someone you care about, trust and you're comfortable with, none of that will matter to him or you. Please don't let your body issues stop you from finding someone . Good luck .
