"A top tip I'd say is don't say "I don't mind that your curvy" I prefer someone who adores my shape not just willing to tolerate it " I'll admit to having said that a few times, but it is a very poor way to say it as I do love a curvy female form. | |||

"I have someone who is always telling me im one of the sexist women he knows and i always tell him to stop being so daft....I had years of an ex telling me my legs were like tree trunks etc and putting me down so now I tell people im fat with maybe a couple of curves I wish they sold confidence in a bottle because I could do with some .

" Its so hard to come across as genuine when so many people (past and present) are like this, putting others down. There are man people out there who do find curves just as, if not more, appealing to slim and/or toned bodies. I hope threads like this help build your confidence as you have an amazing body. | |||

"I've just been having a conversation with another fab member regarding curves and confidence. I always declare I'm no skinny bird early in a conversation, I'm curvy! just to be totally honest and the reaction I usually find is that most guys will go for confidence and intelligence over size.... but some females are not so confident about their size, beautiful as some are. So guys.... your thoughts on curves, confidence and how to make someone feel confident if you really want to meet them but they are unsure ......." I'm the female of this profile and I ALWAYS state I'm curvy. Wouldn't want to disappoint anyone upon meeting haha. That's because someone said to me once that I may be big but I'm pretty. Kinda upset me that comment | |||

"I'm fat (curvy if you're being polite) - I think really there are only so many nice things the other can say - it's down to the fat/curvy one to address their own self confidence. People do and will find you attractive, you just have to have that belief. Don't get me wrong, at times I wobble (moreso before a meet!) and appreciate a nice compliment from a friend but if that does happen I take time to reflect on why it is. Do I need to go for a waddle? Have a nice bath? Wank? Eat chocolate? I always feel better after one or two of those things." Do all 3 at the same time. | |||

"If someone is ok with me then that's a good start. I do understand a lot of women are concerned about how they look and feel. I look past that if we can laugh enjoy each other I'd be happy going out and meeting. Just be nice " I’d definitly like to meet your confidence | |||

"I'm very confident with what I've got. Of course, there are things I do to improve myself, like trying to eat healthily and exercising regularly. Then there are some things that I'll never be able to obtain, like having longer legs. You've just got to work with what you've got. This year's aim is to work on what I consider to be my problem area; my mummy tummy, but I'm still confident with it regardless!" You have confidence, I wish I had that much x | |||

"I try to be confident and embrace my curves. 90% of the comments I get are positive however is always that one very negative or rude person that sticks in my mind. It is all about confidence though because 100 people can say you look fantastic but if you don't feel it when you're not going to believe any of them. " Exactly. It’s how you feel about yourself | |||

"I’m curvy, big, large, fat etc Whatever you’d call it, my looks have nothing to do with my weight or body confidence " Exactly. I’m far more attracted to someone’s facial looks than anything else. And as you say there’s no correlation between that and someone’s weight. One of the first people I met through Fab was self conscious about her weight, but I think might be getting better now. She also just happens to be the most gorgeous woman I’ve been lucky enough to meet on here, and far sexier than she knows. | |||

"Honestly? For me it's about the individual person, attraction, connection and chemistry - it doesn't come down to curvy or skinny or anything other than those four things, including confidence. I really don't have a "type" and have met people of varying shapes and sizes, and confidence levels, since being here and can honestly say I don't see someone's size either way - the important things to me are those four things I listed at the start, without them it's not going to happen regardless of shape or confidence." I believe that from you though. I see people post things like this and half the time I just think ah they’re just saying that to make themselves look nice. Not everyone but a lot of them. | |||

"As much as fab helped me with my confidence when I was on here as a single female now it's exact opposite. The amount of photos of women with perfect bodies which Cute fabs everyday is making me rather insecure about my own look. Kitten " Just throwing my opinion in there but you have a gorgeous body. There is no other way to say it. Perfect body is all opinionated really (health wise it's different) but attractiveness is all down to the individual and you most certainly do have an attractive body. Both have great bodies - nope not jealous at all... | |||

"For me, I have days when I'm Uber confident and days when I'm not. I'm fat, but I know I can do sexy, however it depends who I'm meeting. Some people can make you feel like the sexiest person on the earth and that in turn brings out your confidence, sass and sexiness. I've had the opposite too where I've just wanted to keep myself covered " very sexy penny clone | |||

No it’s bloody not best! Then the ignorant dickheads win! Can you not tell by the beginning of the message what sort of message it is? I usually could and I honestly read about one in a hundred and just deleted the rest. Most of them are absolutely vile and it does get to you in the end.

Abuse because of your body shape, no matter what that shape is, is *never* ok and says more about the abuser than the person being abused - and that's what you keep having to remind yourself, especially on a site like this that has a lot of superficiality and, I'm ashamed to say, men getting butt hurt and lashing out because you've had the temerity to reject them. I know that must be hard to do and ultimately only you can decide if you continue to put up with it BUT you should never lose sight of the fact that any kind of abusive behaviour is never about you but about them and their own inadequacies. | |||

I re-met last year and he said he was "blown away" by the new confident me and we are planning more meets this year (I'm currently the one putting him off at the moment so the proof is there for me!) I have found that some people (usually female) try hard to knock others confidence and at first I allowed it ... Not any more! I've had a LOT of great sex in the last 12 months and an confident enough to turn people down and approach men first. I'm hot to some and I know it, and I'm maximising on that now ...

"Curvy is another word women use to describe them being over weight and fat ,you are what you eat " Yet science has proved time and time again that the biggest impact on a woman’s weight is hormonal changes. There’s actually 8 major hormonal states that effect women and their weight we go through each of those stages during the course of our lifetime and each stage provides new challenges. There’s a reason A majority of women use the phrase “my weight was never an issue until .......” | |||

" The word fat shouldn’t be used. " Why not? I have it on my profile that I am fat. When I first joined I think I used "very curvy" and someone pointed out that I wasn't fully honest on my profile. I wasn't offended by this statement as it was totally true. I am fat, I've lost 9 stone so I am nowhere near as fat as I was but I don't have an issue with the word fat. It's ignorant people who feel it's their right to slag you off for being fat that pisses me off. The main reason for this opinion is that by sending abuse and being downright rude is showing that they are clearly perfect are they not?! | |||

" This is undoubtedly true, and I don’t think there’s an overweight person on here who isn’t aware of it (so thanks for pointing it out again) but I hope it wouldn’t come into the OP’s original question of “how to make someone feel confident if you really want to meet them but they are unsure” | |||

"Curvy is another word women use to describe them being over weight and fat ,you are what you eat " Sometimes this is true, for some people they can keep healthy and not shift the weight and on the other hand I know others size 10 who eat like a horse but do not gain any weight at all. Some people are fat obsese whatever it maybe called due to eating junk not exercising etc but some have good medical reasons. I agree some people shouldn’t use the term curvy when they are a lot more but..... that’s upto them and it’s upto the man to approach them if he likes what he see’s. | |||

Any woman that goes to places like Slimming world, weight watchers, lighter life etc will always see men that join join loose twice the amount of weight in less amount of time - the reason? Simply hormones When it comes to the 8 major hormonal states I currently have what’s known as ovarian burnout. With this I loose weight better doing gentle exercise like walking and eating a high carb diet (which is apparently a no go according to most), so that minimal excercise and eating “junky” carbs, yet it bloody works! | |||

Any woman that goes to places like Slimming world, weight watchers, lighter life etc will always see men that join join loose twice the amount of weight in less amount of time - the reason? Simply hormones When it comes to the 8 major hormonal states I currently have what’s known as ovarian burnout. With this I loose weight better doing gentle exercise like walking and eating a high carb diet (which is apparently a no go according to most), so that minimal excercise and eating “junky” carbs, yet it bloody works! " These people aren't sad Curvy, they are simply ignorant | |||

"From cancer research UK: Obesity is the second biggest preventable cause of cancer in the UK- more than 1 in 20 cancer cases are caused by excess weightThe risk is higher the more weight a person gains and the longer they are overweight forThe good news is small changes that are kept up over time can make a real difference. This is undoubtedly true, and I don’t think there’s an overweight person on here who isn’t aware of it (so thanks for pointing it out again) but I hope it wouldn’t come into the OP’s original question of “how to make someone feel confident if you really want to meet them but they are unsure”" | |||

"Curvy is another word women use to describe them being over weight and fat ,you are what you eat Sometimes this is true, for some people they can keep healthy and not shift the weight and on the other hand I know others size 10 who eat like a horse but do not gain any weight at all. Some people are fat obsese whatever it maybe called due to eating junk not exercising etc but some have good medical reasons. I agree some people shouldn’t use the term curvy when they are a lot more but..... that’s upto them and it’s upto the man to approach them if he likes what he see’s." I agree. I had my thyroid removed a few years ago and put in weight after that. This makes it VERY difficult for me to lose weight and tone up. I try by going to gym 3/4 times a week and eating healthy. | |||

"If someone doesn't feel confident in themselves, why would it be up to others to make them feel confident enough to meet? I don't get the question. " Confidence (apart from being the habitual voyeur of what is known as... ) is something that in part comes from interaction with others and being made to feel confident as a result of those interactions - whether that be through sincere compliments received, just a general feeling of comfort because you've got to know someone, or any other number of factors - so I don't think the OP was saying it's "up to others" to make someone feel more confident per se and certainly not when it comes to general confidence. There's a vast difference though between feeling generally confident about yourself, and feeling confident with specific individuals, and I think it was the latter that the OP was referring to and that individual confidence does come down to how you interact with one another, and build confidence that the other person is genuine and someone you feel comfortable with. | |||

"I've just been having a conversation with another fab member regarding curves and confidence. I always declare I'm no skinny bird early in a conversation, I'm curvy! just to be totally honest and the reaction I usually find is that most guys will go for confidence and intelligence over size.... but some females are not so confident about their size, beautiful as some are. So guys.... your thoughts on curves, confidence and how to make someone feel confident if you really want to meet them but they are unsure ......." For me. I'm not here to give, improve or create confidence in others. Bring your own confidence. | |||

" When I’m being nosey I often see bbw like myself , in revealing pictures just oozing confidence and it’s so refreshing I have to message and simply say what I see xx we are all force fed these unrealistic airbrushed Hollywood body Images its so easy to get caught up in that pressure to look a certain way. it’s hard to just be comfy in your own skin at best, let alone if you are curvy or woe betide big! You’re hot, questioning my sexuality right about now You want me to answer it xxx hhmmmm maybe Hahah... follow me, (takes hand) !- Give me a shout if you need another hand A naked conga hahaha Can see this being the Conga soon, doo doo dooo " | |||

"It's so hard to have curvy confidence when there are always people that want to put you down. fuck those people, the people who want to put you down are worth nothing to you! I know and I normally rise above it but sometimes people just get under my skin. oh yeah I’ve had some horrific messages from guys who think I should be hidden away or to go kill myself coz I’m huge it’s really hard to ignore x Yes unfortunately I've had a few like this as well. I shouldn't let it get Under My Skin but people think because I'm larger is perfectly ok to personally abuse me and it just gets a bit much sometimes and I just wonder if it's best not to put myself out there in the first place so I can't get the abuse. No it’s bloody not best! Then the ignorant dickheads win! Can you not tell by the beginning of the message what sort of message it is? I usually could and I honestly read about one in a hundred and just deleted the rest. Most of them are absolutely vile and it does get to you in the end. I’ve blocked everyone except friends from messaging me now for a while as I’ve just had enough of it to be honest. xx Thank you and I feel like I might have to do the same also I think I'm going to have to be a little bit more careful what threads I post in. I guess it's partly my own fault because I put myself out there and put my opinions out there so I guess am opening myself up to criticism that's what I meant about not putting myself out there. " No it's not your fault. There are no excuses. This is a sad reflection on some of the narrow minded types with a chip on their shoulder that are occasionally found on this site. If there's one thing we've learned from our swinging journey, it's that there are all type out there, all ages & they are into way more things than we'd ever imagined! Some are definitely not for us but we'd never dream of criticising others provided no one is hurt, no one is coerced & if we say no thanks it's accepted. We really thought people here would be more broad minded than in vanilla life but clearly not. Everyone is entitled to be here. If someone is not for you what on earth would possess you to go to the effort of sending abuse? Really? What's more (I'm sure someone has said it already), but many guys genuinely do prefer a fuller figure. Fact. We have all looked at someone & thought corrr without really knowing what it was about that person that attracted us to them over the next -for us that's certainly not just based on body size. Abuse in any shape or form, for any reason is unacceptable. When it becomes acceptable we end up with Putin, Trump, Bolsonaro, Áder etc. They are all entitled to their opinions, but when they decide that their's are the only allowable ones we are well & truly screwed. | |||

" Although we get a lot of messages from slim/ athletic guys, I don't think I could ever be naked or confident around a fit guy, I'd always be wondering why would he want to be with me?! " I'm with you on this. I think they're either fake or taking the piss x | |||

No it's not your fault - you're as entitled as the next person to post on any thread you like and offer your opinion, if people disagree with that opinion and can offer a balanced and reasoned post or message disagreeing with it, then that's one thing - sending abuse because they don't is most definitely not and in extreme cases should be reported without question. Why should you not feel free to enjoy the site as much as the next person? thank you and like I said I'm just having a bit of a moan because I was upset about something that happened in another thread so thank you all for listening. I'm sure I'll be back to my chirpy opinionated, confident self very soon. " I hope some of the comments in this thread will give you your confidence back x | |||
