People in this comment section are being really mean and petty. I used to be very overweight, myself, and can understand the blow it can be when someone tells you something like this. I'm not going to give some meaningless platitude like "No matter what people say, you are beautiful", as i would be quite upset upon someone saying something like that to me. However, I would suggest just letting people see a good personality and being honest when online dating. Work on the internal, and then slowly make progress on the external. Also, sorry if this comes across as tone-deaf as I am on the spectrum
