...See more Hello, I just wanted some advice as I feel like this situation is triggering my depression. Also, I am 27 for context. I have been on a dating app for a while and all the boys on their of the same religion and culture as me. I found it hard to connect with any of them to be honest and was about to delete it. until recently, I found someone that I connected with and we have spoken on the phone a few times and have been messaging back and forth and everything was going really well. He’s also been really understanding about the demands of my uni and why I don’t have a lot of free time to see him so he is willing to wait until I have time. The conversation flows easily. last night, I sent him a full body picture of me to show my current weight as I am in the process of losing weight and explained that I wanted to be honest and didn’t want to waste his time. I explained that due to illnesses that I had gained the weight but I am in the process of losing it. Last night when he saw it, he said it was fine. But this morning, he asked for a picture of what I looked like before I got sick and I found one and sent it to him. But he replied to the other messages as normal. I have a lot more to me than just my physical appearance which tbh, is not my fault that I am currently the weight that I am and I am trying to lose it. It just feels a bit *** to think that this might not even happen due to something I cannot control. If it was something to do with something I had said or my personality, then I would understand. But this I do not have full control of my weight at the moment and am dealing with some health issues which are all improving now. Which is why I decided I was ready to start dating. im just very confused as to what’s going on. Like what does this mean?
