Hey all,
The day I (24F) got sent home from work at the start of quarantine, March 17th, I went on Hinge and that day started talking to a guy (25M) named "Mike". We have talked every day since then, but not once have we ever met up. We live about 30 minutes from each other, and he has a busy schedule since he hasn't stopped working from all of this, so it made it hard to find time to meet up.
Well, he actually is on vacation this week and is asking to finally hang out. Here's the issue in my head after this long:
I'm overweight. He knows this. We've sent pictures, videos, et cetera. He knows I'm self conscious about my body. I've been working out every day and eating healthy and have lost 30ish pounds since March, and he also knows this. We talk about going to the beach and stuff and will ask things about "What color bikini are you going to wear", but I'm 100% not comfortable with wearing one, so I told him, and he understood. Then he'll call me cute, hot, attractive, all that good stuff. The issue is, I don't see myself that way. I know this isn't a bad thing at all that he calls me this stuff, it's just hard for me to believe him and think he's not being genuine or whatever.
So I know he knows what I look like and maybe that's just him trying to hype me up or what, but I'm nervous that when we actually meet in person, he'll be repulsed by me and have wasted 4 months talking to him and developing genuine feelings for him.
Anybody go through a similar experience? How'd it work out for you?
