I think you’ll probably be able to find the answer to your dilemma at Lisa Daily’s site, (Plus, there’s a lot of good info there.) She’s the author of two dating books, HOW TO DATE LIKE A GROWN-UP and STOP GETTING DUMPED. It’s one of my favorite sites for dating tips and advice, and the videos are pretty funny.

I’m pretty sure she answers questions that are sent to her, you might try her for an answer to your question.

I’m a guy and for 2 years I had a slight belly (i had stopped working out for a few years and had let myself go in college a bit).

A girl that I was interested in literally said “you have a big stomach”.
Crushed me big time. It wasnt that big but wow. What a *****.
I then pledged to NEVER stop working out and eating right.

My dating hasnt changed though. I get just as many girls now as I did during those 2 years that I had a slight belly.

I wouldn’t think dating would be different either way. It don’t matter if you’re big or small, dinner and a movie with someone who’s into you will be fun.
