I think you'll still probably be able to tell like, it's not going to look like

Probably would if I never would have been as heavy as I was.

But so that's like something, I guess.

No, it's kind of like once you like if you're heavy enough, which I was like you stretch out your skin, it doesn't snap back.

It will to a certain extent.

But like there will be like stretch marks and stuff like that, too.

I mean, yeah.

You know, so I mean, and I don't like want or like need a perfect body.

I don't need my partner to have a perfect body either.

But I think that'll help.

Maybe.

I don't know.

Yeah.

Most of them have been older.

I mean, like physically, it's kind of been all over.

I've been surprised by some of the people that I ended up like seeing for longer periods.

than I would have thought originally like I saw like someone who like was a smoker for example and that normally would be a deal breaker but we hit it off and I was like willing to figure it out and to your point he probably beat me to the punch because that wouldn't have worked for me long term but I was like willing to do that because there was a connection and there were other things that I felt outweighed that but yeah kind of all over the place and it's been like interesting to to your like point about like me having confidence it's like this

yes and no thing like it is amazing when i am on hinge and i have like a ton of matches and i can get a date if i want a date yeah like not to sound like i'm super hot but like i can if i want to have a date i can find one but it is kind of always in the back of my mind like i would not be on this date probably if they met me three years ago

And so that's like a bit of a mental, I mean, I'm in therapy and stuff and it's like just an unfortunate like reality of culture and society right now.

No, that's really helpful.
