That's a tough situation if you're used to getting looks for your appearance primarily.

As a guy I won't lie, I tend to look at the females of an ideal weight and size (small, petite, thin) but the truth is, even the heavier women can get my attention if they were to make it clear they were interested. I am going out on a limb here and realize this may make me look bad that I can be somewhat superficial in who I look at :/ But truthfully if a girl approached me or showed serious interest in me.. I wouldn't ignore it just because they were a bit overweight.

One example would be when I was working at a Target there was this cute redhead taht always flirted with me. She was attractive, but not because she was the ideal weight or had a certain look but because she had a nice personality and was flirtatious and bubbly (I did find out later she wasn't nearly that cute as she flirted with all the guys and this, while having a boyfriend already but that's not important here). Anyway what I am saying is she got my attention by flirting and paying attention to me.

Don't let your weight get in the way of meeting guys, you just might have to be more active about meeting them than the girls that are thinner.

On another note, keep in mind having hordes of males flocking to you might seem nice but remember most of these guys are thinking with the wrong part of their body anyway and probably haven't even seen or care about your personality. (not all but a lot of them) so it's not all bad that you don't have tons of guys trying to pick up on you
