Would you ever not go out with someone because they were overweight?

I would be torn really. Although I am not shallow enough to say you are too fat I will never date you, I may nto want to date them because of their weight.

It's not just their weight that would put me off it would be the fact that I am underweight and if we ever got physical I wouldn't want to be hurt.

However, I would date someone if they were a little overweight if they understood me and stuff.

How fat are we talking?

If they were a bit chubby i can deal with that, but full on fat, just no. Wouldnt be attracted to it and gotta be atleast a bit attracted to the person.

Absolutely, if I'm not attracted to them why would I go out with them?

Hmm say one was like 18 stone compared to someone who was 300 pound (something like 21 stone. yes they are american). I'm not torn between any decision or going off what's happening to me irl because i would neither date them they were just examples.
however, i agree a bit chubby is fine.

i will never date a fat person simply because i like guys and girls who take care of their health and appearance. simple as, nothing to do with being shallow, i will take a healthy one over a funny, fat person. i wouldn't not be friends with someone who was fat (actually i don't have any fat fat friends idk why ://) but in a relationship my type is someone who looks after themselves. yep...
that being said i once got asked out by a large guy and he was really nice but i said no because of those reasons ^ then he lost loads of weight, got fit and became too good for me. lol

This... A little bit of chubs is acceptable yet should be regarded with caution.

Nope and most people who say they would, would be lying.

and most likely fat themselves. they do say you go for someone who resembles you, right?. gon be judging everyone in here. i honestly can't see how people are attracted to fat... why is it such an insult or shallow to say that? i'm not attracted to people who don't take care of their health. i just don't get it.
now 'big-boned' (lol) is fine really, 'curvy' FINE aslong as there's no excess flab - even on a skinny person. why does that make someone shallow? isn't it natural to prefer healthy people? lol go on someone tell me being fat is healthy:S & i'm not saying skinny is healthier at all just overweight people...no

I agree with most that's said here.

I hate to sound shallow but i will probably never go out with a fat person.
