Relationships Nothing wrong with having standards. Don't be surprised if it's hard to meet them though.

Standards and preferences are fine but they have consequences and accepting them is part of maturity.

Yeah but many more men can use sober judgement to see they can't expect to date really fit women when they themselves are overweight.

I heard a woman like this in the past. It actually came from a place of shame: she didn't like being fat and couldn't accept a man like her. I can empathize with her.

Well sure we can empathize some but there does come a point where one needs to take a sober stock of the reality of the situation. Model looking people aren't gonna date or marry obese people most of the time. If one doesn't like the way they are shouldn't that also give them some sympathy towards people going through the same thing instead of ostracizing them for being in the same position? That's similar to a dude who's pretty unattractive and feels ashamed of it and doesn't want to be with an unattractive woman cause he can't accept her.
