This woman discovered an awful ‘reason men aren’t asking her out’ after 10 stone weight loss
Kelly Glover worked hard to shift almost half of her body weight, but it seems that her love life has shrunk along with her waistline... and for a horrendous reason.
WHEN Kelly Glover lost 10 stone, she thought she'd be inundated with date invitations from lusty admirers - but she's found she was more popular when she was clinically OBESE.
She was stunned to discover that she got more male attention when she weighed 23 stone, but was given a horrible reality check when she asked a male friend why.
He told her in no uncertain terms that it was men believe larger girls to be EASIER to pull - a revelation that left Kelly seething.
Writing for Australian site , plus size blogger Kelly, 39, explained why the entire situation had left her stunned and angry.
She wrote: "After losing 10 stone (67 kg) I was half expecting a romantic comedy montage-style life of never-ending meet cutes [sic] with dates scheduled back-to-back all weekend long – but nope.
"It’s been crickets.
"When I was 23 stone (152 kg), I got asked out all the time. Seriously. All-the-damn-time.
"When I lived in Hollywood, men would literally chase me down the street just to speak with me.
"This never happens in Australia. Meanwhile in LA, I’d get asked out at the supermarket, at the gym, in the Uber car pool, and even once while I was behind the barrier of a police standoff (yes, really).
"Now I’m 13 stone (84 kg) and size 18 (still fabulously fat) but there’s no magical mic drop moment. Instead I’m left tapping the mic asking, ‘Is this thing on?'"
Kelly added that she was confused as the only thing that had changed about her was her weight, personality-wise she was still the same, fun-loving, worldly woman.
She couldn't hide her confusion, and one night asked a male friend for some insider intel.
Kelly explained: "Society tells us that slimmer is better and this reaction in the dating game was incongruent. Was I more attractive when I was fatter? I still feel the same, just less fat.
"For months I couldn't figure it out. Why was it that the smaller I got the less interested the single men got?
"One night I finally ovaried-up and asked a male friend what the heck was going on. Well, I sent him a Facebook PM. I needed insider information."
He told her: "Well people are more confident hollering at fat chicks. They feel there is less chance of rejection so they are more bold."
His revelation stunned Kelly, who believes that it's HARDER to get a larger lady to commit as they are so worried that a man is tricking them by pretending to be interested.
She said: "This revelation reminded me of the 'fat chicks are easy' myth. Which by the way, as a fat chick of almost forty years, I can confirm is complete bull.
"You think fat chicks are easy? Go ahead and try to persuade a big girl you’re really into her and see how that works out for you. Good luck with that. Truly pursuing a fat chick isn’t a sprint, it’s a freaking marathon!"
Kelly isn't the only super-slimmer on the internet. Meet the 27-year-old who shed six stone by hitting the treadmill five times a week.
And this blogger has been accused of Photoshopping her selfies as her weightloss has been so extreme.
