Guys (girls too if ya want) please help? Body image?

Question by andofcourse…: Guys (girls too if ya want) please help? Body image?

Ok I hold true to my word when I say that I am slightly overweight. I’m not 250+lbs and calling it “thick”. I have a big chest, a fair shape to my body, I’m 5’3 145lb to be exact. I just don’t understand what the problem is with me, I mean many people says I’m beautiful, but I just don’t see it. I mean I’m CONSTANTLY (literally) looking up online stuff about whether guys think it’s ok to be my size. I mean and sometimes I come across comments like these “And if you’re even slightly overweight well that just kills any hope. Please just don’t go out in public anymore. Please. Some of us men are tired of having to hurl our breakfast because we see crazy ugly goons like you.”-I don’t know who said it, but it was cruel and nearly brought me to tears. I mean I take good care of myself, I’ve just always been a tiny bit off the “bmi chart”. I’ve been eating well, and playing sports, and staying active all my life (hiking especially) So guys, is it true that you’d rather have a skinny girl as to a size 10 (sometimes 12, depends on the brand) like myself. It’s not like I don’t shower, in fact I’m really clean. I don’t know, I just see these girls 10x skinnier than me, and I know I’ll never look like that, and it makes me lose my appetite (SERIOUSLY!) I’ve thought about bulimia, and anorexia ever since I hit thirteen and started obsessing over this, but then I always say if I take good care of myself, what else can I do? I don’t know. I mean do you think a woman with a little extra can be beautiful? And I don’t mean have a pretty face but fat body. I mean could you look at her and really say she’s beautiful, body and all, if she was nicely shaped and all? Maybe it;e ninety percent of the males who spend their time online in forums and on Y!A are all 13 y.o boys who’ve been looking at too many bad websits (you know what I mean)
