some of the girls got mad at me in my class for awnsering this question?

Question

guys and girls if you were going to the gym everyday keeping your self in shape and u looked fit and toned would you date a guy or a girl that wasint remember you have worked hard for that body you have counted your callories and lifted heavy or light plates for that body. would you go out with somebody who wasint in good shape like you or wasint evean trying to be

am i right arent fit people attracted to fit people

Answer 1

It depends on the person. Who you are attracted to is up to you and only you - don't let anybody else tell you who to date. For me, i don't think i've ever dated somebody because of their physique. Then again, if he can't keep up with me - he's history.

Answer 2

Well I guess that's a tough question. You would have to decide if this was at the top of your priority list. You could be missing out on some special people who don't exercise as much as you do. I understand that exercise and being in shape is a lifestyle for some people and finding a partner who also likes to be physically active would be important. But some people may actually be active and still have some extra weight on or some people may actually just need some guidance to get more active so you could be missing out if that is your sole criteria.

Most people may not be as enthusiastic about exercise as you and may have other cirumstances in their lives that prevent them from being able to make that time committment. But it takes all kinds to make the world go around and many girls are out there starving themselves to live up to some ideal that may not be attainable for them. And personally the experience that I have had with guys who are so in to their bodies and fitness that they were actually very boring. So while you are deciding if someone if fit enough for you to date you may want to ask yourself what else you bring to the table other than a fit body?

But like I said, I understand that a fit person would want another fit person and that is totally your choice.

Answer 3

I wouldnt if i was single.

unfit people dont understand 'us' fit people. My dh and I workout contstantly, I am a runner he lifts free-weights and does extreme bike riding. He understands my passion for running and respects my running time. He knows the longer I am gone the more miles I am running. HE LOVES IT. Now if my husband was lazy and watched sports all evening and didnt care about working out I think we would clash, we would argue why i take so long, etc.

I DO think that people that are really passionate about keeping in shape do tend to look for that in the person that they are with.

Flab is not pretty. Lazy is not attractive. Stay fit and eat healhty!

Answer 4

it is true to a point the fitness thing would certainly be something they would have in common which is a plus in a relationship.it is only one of many or none of other things each may find attractive or in common with the other. example being my wife has her whole life eaten healthy was a kick boxer and a female bodybuilder (a feminine one) me a salad bar is as close as i come to a healthy meal and have spent maybe a year and a half's total time in the gym in over 25yrs but what makes us click is the personalities,similar other interests and my twisted dark sense of humor. the other reason fit people may want to hang around the unfit is like Rodney Dangerfield said hey if you want to look thin hang around with fat people.

Answer 5

Sure..Since I take care of myself I want someone that has the same respect for themselves..Not some fatty that is sitting on the couch while I bust my butt looking good for them. Plus I think that if you are a fit person and you date a fit person, that you will have more fun with them because they will enjoy more things that you do. Example being: Going on a long hike and then having lunch and hiking back.

Answer 6

you are right - and wrong. There are always some that will cross the line, but as a rule people like to hang out with those they have things in common with.
But generally a really fit person would have nothing in common with a junk food junkie

Answer 7

yea, but it is still kinda rude..some people do try hard, but still might not look as good as you do. next time just say something like "well everyone would rather have a bf/gf that looked smokin on the beach, but once you get to know someone who isn't in the best possoble shape, they will be just as great as the beach babe." Trust me...i've gotten myself into the same bind before in health class.

Answer 8

Yes, you are right. The girls who are angry at you are just envious of your great shape which you worked to achieved. Sure...you should chose guys who are equally fit.

People with the same goals should definitely hang out together.

Answer 9

I guess the problem is that you are assuming because someone is thin, that they are fit. I know lots of thin people who are totally out of shape. I would think it depends more on the individual person. Not everyone who works out is super tiny.

Answer 10

I think so, If it's important to you to be in shape you would probably want someone who is in shape. But then there are people who don't smoke who date people who do. It's all about the individual but for the most part I think so.

Answer 11

I'd date a girl that led an active life over one that starved herself thin. The anorexic look is just as grotesque to me as the morbidly obese. I want someone with curves and can keep up.
