My BF is overweight. I do worry about his health but I am not bothered by how he looks. Heck he has bad Tourette's and I don't care. And no one else does either. Are people very intolerant where you are at?
It's not just me not caring about looks. Most people I know aren't that great looking whatsoever yet they find someone to date or be friends with . It only matters in very young age. Well not even then. Even teenagers date others who aren't good looking at all.

Yeah, where I am (S. Africa) looks are in general not a big thing. But, it must be something local here where I live in this particular town. It's a university town, with mostly young people, all attractive and slim. One quickly begins to feel like an outsider when you look around and see no-one else like you, and when people "show" you they don't want anything to do with you. Also, you can be easily replaced by someone "better". There is an endless choice of young people to hang out with, one prettier and more cool than the next, and let's face it - who's going to hang out with a fat shy guy when you can get a lot more fun with someone spunky, cool and attractive?
