Guys, would you care if your girlfriend is uncomfortable naked around you?

I’m 24 and a virgin for good reason. I’m on a weight loss journey to lose 160 pounds and I’m over 1/3 way there. If I allow myself to be in a relationship and have sex, I know it’d be difficult for me considering I’ve mutilated my body. I know I’ll have slight loose skin, stretch marks all over, my boobs will sag more, skin discoloration on my vagina/thighs/inner butt, etc. Although I am making efforts to diminish these because I can’t afford surgery, it’ll still be there. I might be able to handle wearing a shirt during sex or sex in the dark, but I don’t know.

If your girlfriend had bold and obvious flaws that are clearly unattractive to men, could you accept that she’s trying to do you a favor by not letting you see her? I feel if a guy saw my body, he’d go soft instantly, which is why I’m considering if I want to be intimate with someone in the first place. Thanks!

  • Just continue on your journey and don’t look back, you are young and there are ways to help your body adapt to this coming weight change. You will feel confident once you’ve accomplished your goal

  • If I'm with a girl I would want to see her naked.

  • Your body personally would not be a problem with me, I'm sure more men than you imagine would feel the same way but I would be okay being intimate in the dark if that is what made you comfortable.
    But please remember that you are probably the most critical of your own body, you probably think you look worse than you actually do.

  • Sure. Shy girls are the most freakiest. Just gotta open them up.

  • That’s the beauty of nature.
    there’s someone out there for everybody.

  • You know what OP... You only live once, life is too short to worry about small things like that. You've done well to lose weight, you are who you are so embrace it and be confident.

  • I would be totally understanding with her and respect her decision but also encourage her to be more open about her body. Moreover, I would try to appreciate every part of her body all the time so that her self appreciation and confident boost.

    İf I'm with her, it means I like her anyway

  • I think you are overthinking it; if you were my girlfriend I would try and help you be comfortable in your own skin.
