I'm 20 my girl is 18. I'm feeling like I'm starting to fall for her but she is starting to get on the overweight side. I still feel attracted to her but I want her to be healthy. I have told her that I love her how she is but the weight is starting to get in the way a little. How can I tell her without looking like an asshole?

The key is not to tell her but to act on it yourself.

Take her for long romantic walks, or ask her if she'll coming running with you because you want to take her on holiday this summer and thought you could get bikini fit together.

That last one will require you to go on holiday but if you get running and then the next day start looking at brochures etc then it will be a big incentive.

Good Luck!! xx

First of all, you dont TELL anyone they should lose weight. guys girls trannys anyone!!!. There are ways to go about this my friend. first of all, when I had a GF who was starting to get kinda On the chubby side, I asked her what she thought about 24 hour fitness. when she asked why I turned it around and said" I dont know, I think I'm getting kinda sloppy around the mid section, and I wanna look sexy for you" They always say that you look cute no matter what! hahaha but any way I told Her that I wanted to be healthy and that it would mean alot to me if she joined me, so she did. and she ended up going to the gym more then I did hahahaha. this doesnt mean do exactly as I did, but try to find something that is active and healthy that both of u could do together. Oh yeah betting who can lose the most weight fastest helps too. haha just make sure that YOU are actually working out too. OK nuff said

2old4this agony auntDude, if you at least want to get the topic of wieght loss rolling with her, just start saying things around her one day about yourself. Like when she's there with you, act like your looking at yourself in the mirror and say things like, "man I need to work out" or " I think i'm getting pudgy". If she ever asks you if you think she's fat, NEVER answer that question with a yes or maybe. Always say things like, "you look good to me" stuff like that. You have to make her start thinking about dieting on her own and then you support her in it. Even if it means you have to diet too.
