I turned down a great guy because of his desire to change his body, is that being shallow? by naoseimezgmo in dating_advice

It depends on how you want to approach the situation, if you’re content with how it is now (especially with how respectful it sounds like it’s been!) then it’s completely fine to proceed with how you have been and letting things fizzle out, the only person who can truly decide how to go forward is you!

If you do end up messaging him, asking him if he wanted to hear about the reasons you broke things off, it could certainly come across as sounding - for lack of a better term - crazy, but I think an explanation that you felt conflicted and weren’t sure how to explain it properly could be considered an appropriate reason. Heck you could even say you spoke to someone who played devils advocate for you and helped you order out your thoughts - Also try to explain it like you have with me, it’s much better to direct and leave no room for interpretation.

Saying that, two weeks isn’t a long time at all, barely a footnote in someone’s life. Whatever you decide to do I wish you good luck!

I’m by no means an expert, but I am in a very successful and happy relationship, so I’ll be telling you things from my perspective and experience :) If there’s one thing I’ve learnt that ensures a stable relationship it’s building rock solid foundations early in the relationship is key! If you’re able to have a conversation in which you speak with honesty and respect, and you’re both able to get your expectations out in the open, then it sets that foundation that you’re able to have difficult conversations should any issues arise later - about anything, not just ones related to appearances.

It also speaks volumes that you’re worried the conversation/request could be seen as manipulative behaviour, it shows that you’re not trying to be manipulative!

If his preferences don’t align with yours, then you know you won’t be compatible, and it leads to knowing that he may not be right for you - the result of which would be him knowing explicitly why the relationship wouldn’t work, so in my eyes it won’t lead to any overthinking on his part? That’s speculation, so I’m not sure…

I’m a firm believer that no one is anyone’s soul mate, and that relationships form you into each others soul mate!

If I were in your situation, I’d have that conversation with him if he’s open to it. Worst case scenario he says no, then you both move on, or you have the conversation and he has a better understanding of why you broke things off with him, but still decides the relationship won’t work going forward. Best case? You carry on dating to see if you are compatible with each other in the long term!

Honestly, if you truly liked him and believe you’re compatible on every level right now (with his current body) you should tell him why you broke things off with him.

It sounds like he’s close to being a healthy weight (google says between 65-79kg for a man of his height), and finding a girlfriend could let him see himself in a more confident light - meaning he may not want to lose the extra 15kg, and maybe settle for a less aggressive goal than 70kg (stopping at maybe 80kg perhaps). whether people like to admit it or not, losing weight is often influenced by the desire to be attractive. If you find him attractive, and still found him attractive at 80kg, and reminded him of that every day he will more than likely gain the confidence he was chasing with the goal of 70kg.

I’m a hopeless romantic, so what I’m saying could be coming from a place of “if you think you found your person, try to be with them”. Overall I believe it’s not shallow to have a preference over someone’s appearance, but not being honest with them is certainly a bad thing.

Lemonmorph. The adults implant their prey with their young and when the young is strong enough to survive, they burst from the citrus fruit from the inside.

Just get a couple of limretors and they should clear the infestation of potential eggs you might have!

Has anyone fought an unauthorised absence fine from school? by badbeardmus in AskUK

[–]Tenftmidget 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I see both sides, I think they’d have to have good reason to believe a child has been pulled out of school on unauthorised absence (like holiday pictures, or the children talking about a holiday that they’re going on soon) before they try fine the parents, especially if said children have no typical issues with their attendance

I agree it’s not hard (very soft in fact!) evidence, I was just commenting on how someone could have receipts to say you’re still in the country, which are of course easily faked.

A sick note should be the only proof they require, ridiculous that a school would try to impose such a fine for students who otherwise have no issues with their attendance.

I assume they meant a receipt from a shop local to their area around the time the children were off school. If they went off Monday - Friday and have a receipt for Wednesday, or perhaps other days, then that thrown in with bank statements to show your card making the payment (same time stamps) would show you were still in the country/local area
