On rare occasions, I would get a male to comment on a picture that I look nice in a dress. But that was once in a while. And half of them were creeps who were trying to make me transfer illegal funds into my account.
But, all of a sudden, I'm that girl. Men openly "like" pictures of me and I receive facebook messages and chats in addition to the pokes from men I've known for years. It's disarming!
Ok, ok. So it's not so "all of a sudden."
It's about 60 pounds of weight loss.
I grapple with this pretty constantly. This attention often comes from people I've known for quite some time--years. People who have seen my weight fluctuate--always bigger than I would have liked-- and have never shown any interest.
Why should I pay attention to you now that I'm more fabulous than a little bit?!
But, on the other hand, aren't I shallow too?
