I am a very overweight woman. I work out daily now and take care of myself. However, I'm still a little uncomfortable in public.

When I meet a guy and he starts flirting with me, I will make a fat joke about myself to make me feel more comfortable. I have done stand-up before and when i can make people laugh, I feel better.

Out of guys I flirt with, I get no laughs...is it a bad idea to try and make light of myself?


I know what you mean! I did that too before I got my confidence in check. But then one day I caught myself saying some rubbish self-depractibg joke and it totally sounded like I was fishing for compliments, like I expected the person to say 'oh honey, you are not fat' when that was obviosuly not the case.

I'd say make em laugh with your brilliant wit about something else.
Good job on the new lifestyle. And the flirting winking
i find it hard:smile:
