Do you prefer your meets to be with a physically fit or slim person?
Or is it unimportant to you?
I'm currently working hard to lose weight (already lost 6kg in 2 months) and since I won't be meeting anyone until this Covid mess is over, I thought that posting how I look NOW might be counterproductive...
However, no photo at all is also counterproductive...
What's your thoughts on this? |

I tend to prefer guys who work out, but it isn’t a deal breaker at all and I meet with guys with other body types too
As for chatting without seeing a pic, no chance. So I’d say to make one available |

My preference is for slim to rugby type build.
A lot of people claim that personality is more important than looks but a lot of people wont engage with a profile that has no photos. We won't chat unless there's at least on photo available, it can be very awkward if after a lot of messages you find that the person isn't your cup of tea. |

For us it’s all about what goes on in your mind. Sexual confidence and an open mind wins with us every time over physical appearance.
Quirky and a good personality? Perfect

As a person who takes a lot of pride and need to stay fit and healthy I expect the same in any meet I may have. So yes its very important to me. I work extremely hard both exercise and diet. |

"Vanity is a turn offso because someone is fit that makes them vain? and slim doesn't always mean healthy neither does ripped "
Gym fit men tend to be vainer than dad bods yes..... had a meet once he was more interested in looking at himself in the mirror than anything else. Not all granted but yes I agree |

"I don't want anyone getting out of breath or collapsing on me... so yeah... physically fit and healthy for me"
I want them to get out of breath and collapse after..... but I want a lot of hard passionate sex to cause it rather than just taking their socks off ![](/icons/s/eek.gif) |

Only thing for us is personal Hygiene....... Other than that, when we are out at clubs, shape and size make no difference, it's all about getting on, having fun and enjoying ourselves.
We're not body perfect by any means but we are not ashamed by it either. Just enjoy yourselves (when we can , of course )

Shouldn't have to be about the size or shape of the person. For me a sense of humour and someone who doesnt take themselves too seriously is what i look for. |

Any body type is ok Aslong as it’s not one extreme to the other..
I don’t like skinny men and I don’t like ridiculously obese men...
Anything inbetween is ok...ripped, dad bod, slightly over weight, normal, no definition, a lot of definition .. all ok |

Four years ago I was in slump, then started run and go to the gym, dropped 19kg.
However much to disaapoint siince cronavirus came, and can no longer go to the gym, I have put on 9kg.
One thing I did notice when I lost 19kg, sex improved a lot.
Take care all, look on brightside, were not in US and have NHS. |

I'm not looking for a new husband, we are in this for fun.
So, as long as you are what we would class as an everyday couple or single, that's ok with us.
The ability to string a sentence together is a bit of an asset too. ![](/icons/s/biggrin.gif) |

I like a guy who looks after his body and cares about his health and appearance
Reasonably fit/rugby build I prefer as opposed to slim
A large stomach is unattractive to me |

There seem to be a lot of posts about weight and size. And yes some people are vain and some people aren't but why does it matter? For me personality wins every time and confidence is key (not arrogance). I'd much prefer a guy who was great to talk to than just basing my decision on looks. And it's sad to read so many people think it's because of their weight.
I am a dress size 22 which I suppose most would consider "fat" but I really don't care what people think about my body. I prefer chunky guys and women to slim people, that's just my preference. But I'd never rule out a skinny person if they ticked my other boxes. I've learned over the years to love who you are and just be yourself and if people don't like that then that's on them not me.
Also I have no issues in meeting people ![](/icons/s/mrgreen.gif) |

I always say, Its not the body type or size. Its the person. Some people suit different body shapes and that makes them attractive. Just cause someone might be big or small, tall or short, thats no matter. Its more how they are in their body that really seals the deal for me. |

Who doesn’t like a ripped body let’s be honest but actually when I’ve been in clubs it’s usually the more average, cute guy that’s a little shy or really funny that get my attention. Sexual chemistry is a real thing, when someone says it’s personality that really is science saying you are sexually matched with someone...
I think add a picture, you can update it as you go but for now it might be the difference of finding someone to get to know... the more info the better vague profiles just get ignored from us (yep mines empty it’s to put of messages while we aren’t meeting)
Good luck on your journey but love who you are now aswell as who you will be |

Despite being a chubby lass, I seem to prefer slim guys or on the gym side of fit. Not bodybuilders though. I don't seem attracted to bigger guys - no idea why. S seems to like bigger women (good news for me!) |

I like someone who can walk up two flights of stairs without having to pause for a break mid way. Better yet someone I can carry up two flights of stairs without stopping for a break mid way, you never know how soon the anesthetic might wear off... Joking of course, I only have one flight of stairs ![](/icons/s/mrgreen.gif) |

"Connection and chemestry is the most important
100% True
You can't fake those!! It's either there or it isn't. "
If there no connection or chemistry its game over for me. I don't care how fit the lady is, if im not feeling it, then its not worth it. |

I like chubby Dad bod or big, tall and really muscly! I do not find slim men attractive at all. I love a belly! And big strong thighs! Getting myself all flustered here! However it’s all about personal choice some men think I’m incredibly attractive some think I’m a fatty haha! I’m not offended each to their own! I am really attracted to plus size girls with big boobies and booties! ![](/icons/s/2/halo.gif) |

Which chemistry do you prefer, Rohy pnol?"
That's a NO for me . I prefer to be alert and keep my memory. I think we meant more along the lines of the kind of chemistry you feel when you just know you want that other person instantly!! |

I think, at least as far as single guys are concerned from what I've seen on this page, something at least approaching slim is better.
Gym fit may not be compulsory, but I reckon it helps.
Women who demand a 'fit guy' on their profile are pretty common.
Couples as well, but not as often.
Conversely, Women who are Curvy and BBW seem to have very little problem finding guys who are more than happy to have a larger lady.
I'm not implying anything from this - it's just an interesting observation. |

I am also losing weight(10.5pounds in 8 weeks) but this is for my personal confidence. I would say only do it if its what you want. You need to feel confident in your own skin. When looking to meet people it can really knock your confidence, so it is important to be happy in your own skin. |

Absolutely agree.
I'm doing the same. Already got the first stone off in 8 weeks
Best of luck for your weight loss journey and I hope it turns out well for you ![](/icons/s/biggrin.gif) |

If I was looking g for a relationship then looks wouldn't be that high up on the tick list.
However, I'm not here to meet my soul mate so why not want to have sex with a guy that turns you on when you look at him? I love a rugby build more than a skinny build and a belly turns me off. |

"for" or "fat" is a bit subjective isn't it? So many people label themselves as athletic physique and yet picture tell a different tale.
Physique is all part of it, along with personality and charisma but is not the only attibute and id hazard a guess has next to no contribution to whether any sexual encounter is good, great or mind blowing. |

I think the connection you have with the person/people you are going to meet is far more important than weather they are slim, chubby or what ever they are. As long as they take care of themselves i.e. personal cleanliness etc and well presented as in they have made an effort to look sexy etc then size shouldn't matter |

Not really bothered about body shape of others aslong as we got on socially first
Being relaxed with someone is more important to us than body type
Although neither of us would feel comfortable meeting right now as we have both gained a few pounds during this year so we wouldn't feel relaxed enough to attempt playing |
