The idea of thinking about being overweight has a way of changing people's minds. A lot of people will never tell anyone how they really feel about being overweight. The only time it is accepted in real life, that fat person will have a lot of money. A lot of people will not gain weight because they know it will change their life style completely. If a man or a women does not mind being fat it is because all of their friends are also fat. I know that some people can not lose even if they did every thing possible because of health reasons. When I know a person who really can not lose weight, I try to respect their way of life.

One of the first mistakes divorced people make right after getting their divorce is gaining weight. This causes them to be depressed when they are alone. The more weight they gain will have them looking for other friends with same life style. If you are a slim single person you will not be doing the same fun things as a fat person would do. When I was single I was on the board of a single club. I was the only male member on the board so It was my job to ask the female members to dance. I did not like the job because it gave the women who were over weight the wrong idea about the single club. The same job was also assigned to the women board members so they also had the same problem.

I do not have any bad thoughts about people who are fat because I know they just want to have fun also. One of the reasons fat people do not get asked to go do things that slim people do, these people can not move fast enough. Most people always want to be with friends who can do the things they do. I am not saying that fat people can not have fun, they just have fun a different way. When married people are different sizes they drift apart and they start doing things with other people. This of course will only work for a while, then the marriage will fall apart.

There are always people who want a heavier person with them just because they like people like that. In that case a fat person will always be accepted. There are a lot of happy marriages where both of them are overweight. There are also a lot of marriages where one of them is fat and the one is slim. If you don't like being around people who are fat, you are just being rude by asking them to do things that you know they can not do. Most of the time a fat person will not ask slim people to do things with them unless they think it can be more fun.
