You might think I’m dumb for asking this but I’m torn and need advice. A couple of weeks ago I decided to try dating apps. I met with a guy after we talked for a week and I thought the date went well. However, he kept glancing at my body and frowning. He stopped talking to me after I went home.
I’ve been talking to a new guy and things have been going well. We are supposed to have our first date this weekend but I’m nervous about the way that I look.
All of the photos on my profile are current/ taken within the last 30 days. I don’t use angles or filters to make myself look slimmer. However, when friends take photos of me I feel like I look much heavier than what I see in the mirror. I’ve already been losing weight (I’m 5’4” and have gone from 145lbs to 137lbs within a week) but I’m wondering if I should postpone the date for a couple of weeks until I lose more weight. I’ve been counting calories and working out every day.
I know people are supposed to love you for what’s on the inside but at my age it seems like everyone values appearance for first impressions.
