Would you ever date someone severely anoretic/morbidly obese?

I know the outside is not everything and you should love the inside mostly but think about all the consequences involved if you date/marry someone severely anoretic or morbidly obese...
For example, your partner would problably not live the same years as you (imagining you´re a healthy person)and would probably not be here to see your kids grow up and the most basics things in a normal life like walking, to your partner would be extremely tiring in both psychologically and physically levels.

I´m not saying these people don´t deserve love, no, but they need a really specific type of person to spend the rest of their life with. Someone that would help them in so many different ways that a "normal" couple wouldn´t need to like getting up the bed, take a shower, take your kids to school and walk, as I said earlier.

My question is do you think you´d be able to take it and try to have a "normal" life and accomplish your dreams with them or do you think there´s too much problems involved and you wouldn´t know how to deal with it.

Yeah, I could make it work 12
No, there are too much problems involved 46

    No I don't have the energy or emotional fortitude to be someone's nurse. Not to mention I can't see wasting that much money on junk food, and I would like to be able to have sex with someone it rather than feel repulsion.

      But after sex with an obese guy you don't have to go to the kitchen for a snack.
      You can just pick the crumbs out of their folds.

          That's the stuff of marathon sex sessions.

    If you don't find either of them attractive initially I wouldn't get involved because it would be emotionally and physically draining but if you are married to someone who over time eventually becomes anorexic or morbidly obese..I think you should stay and help them and make it work.

    Possibly. I have definitely been physically attracted to people who are very fat or very thin, and I could truly love them, but I don't know if I have the ability to cope with the stresses of it. I'm not very good at relationships at the best of times, even without added stressors. That said, if I deeply connected to someone on a personal level then I wouldn't give a damn.

    Based on my experience with my anorexic friend I'm going to have to say no, on both. But especially the anorexic. I don't like dealing with one sided relationships, and as much as I would like to help the girl, she herself would not see a problem with her diet. Therefore I'd be stuck doing all the work. I'm not going to spend my time fixing a broken person if they themselves don't even want to be fixed. The fact that you say "severely" makes me thing that she's beyond help though, and like RoseIsabella said I don't have the energy or emotional fortitude to be someone's nurse. If she was a recent anorexic though and wanted help, then perhaps I would consider helping the person. Mind you not necessarily date, but I would like to help. But like I said though, you would have to want to get better, otherwise you'd just be wasting my time.

    Anorexic and Obesity are too totally different issues. So you really can not ask this in the same question. If they were anorexic I would not judge them for it but depending how far along they were I might try to get them help for it.

    For the obesity thing it would depend why they were overweight and how much mobility they have. If someone was a generally wonderful person but really fat but could move around on there own I would not judge them for that.

    However if someone was just lazy, did nothing but gorge themselves on crap and are stuck in wheel chair simply due to the fact all they do is eat than no. I would be disgusted at this. Also I have no issue with someone eating a lot I just find it disgusting when people eat for sport and for sake of eating.

    If someone is fat since they have some sort of medical issue than possibly. Like if they have a issue that attacked nerves or something like this which limits mobility it might be harder for them to exercise.

  • I could not. Anorexia pisses me off so bad, and I simply find both body types unappealing. I wouldn't want to wipe a guy underneath his rolls :/ I want someone who is generally physically fit and healthy because I feel it reflects their mental state in a way.

    Not obese. But I do like curvy, thick, a bit of chub.

    I wouldn't want to take care of them. Also, I don't find either attractive

    Probably not. Both are unhealthy.

    Let's clarify, Anorexia is a disease NOT a size. Some women are NOT emaciated no matter how badly they starve and some underweight women are NOT anorexics.

        It's not a sin. Not being attracted to someone is not a sin, hating is.

        God forgives you for not knowing what you say.

    No. I'm trying to live a burden free life. I wouldn't step into something I know I can't handle.

    I find neither attractive, but tending to be a bit overweight myself, I'd rather date a skinny gal than a chubby one, if those were my only two choices.
