Attention Attention - Go Away
I am down 35 lbs from the beginning of 2012 and I am currently on my preop diet. My surgery is schedule next Friday. Recently divorced and feel very awkward around the opposite sex. I've always had my weight to hide behind and I do not look around or up in public. Lately, I've noticed more attention from guys. Not the normal, hey you are cool, but the whole you're hot stuff. This only makes my anxiety worse (I know there are other worries like people who are starving or abused animals), but seriously not fun. I paid attention to how I reacted today and I'm not sure if I am handling it right. I tend to just put them off and tell them they have no chance. Something funny like get in line its gonna be awhile. For the most part its true, I'm a sleeze magnet, but now I can identify them easily (I hope). The issue is that if it is this way and I haven't had the surgery yet, will it get worse? The another fear comes into my head, will I get too thin? I know its pretty much impossible and I've done the math, but scared I will lose my "assets" too. Either way, I still do not want the attention. I haven't been single most of my life, I wouldn't know how to be if I tried...if anyone out there has experience with putting off men you aren't interested in, but letting the nice ones in...please give me your tips! Thanks!
