I was just listening to a radio show where they mentioned a recent poll that said half of men (at least, the half that were polled) would leave their partner if they gained weight.
Let me tell you, girls, if a man is willing to do that to you then he wasn't in love with you in the first place. Just because your body or your shape changes doesn't mean -you- do. If he is willing to leave because of purely physical reasons then he probably never -truly- appreciated you to begin with. His idea of love--his attraction--is on a physical scale. He is in love with your body. He could never fall in love with -you-, with your very -soul-. He is incapable of seeing any deeper than the surface level--both physical and emotional--and bases his entire perspective on it. When something alters his expectations, he wants out. He is incapable of seeing you for the beautiful woman you always are and always have been. He doesn't even -grasp- the concept of love.
Don't think for a second you're not worth more. Don't think that you have to maintain society's perception of beauty in order to be loved. You are just as beautiful as the day God made you, and you should be treated like it. If men can't see that then they doesn't deserve you. I mean it. This isn't a platform for me to try to boost anyone's self esteem. I just want you to understand what love really is. Beauty is much deeper than how you look. Beauty is who you -are-, and it doesn't leave just because your physical appearance changes. Find a man who can see that, and don't settle for anything less.
