I probably have internalized fatphobia. If someone might have a thing for me & they’re on the thinner/fit side, I always think they’d waste time w/ me. I was a fat kid, I consider myself a fat adult, people say I’m pessimistic & I say I’m realistic.

the difference— realistic is “no one deserves mistreatment over the size & shape of my body, but a lot of people have been shitty to me about being fat throughout my life” “if someone thin / fit is interested in me, dating me would be a waste of their time” is internalized fatphobia, which distorts your worldview, compromising your ability to be realistic
