Episode 153 - When You Don’t Believe Your Partner Is Attracted to You

This episode is for fat folks who have partners who reassure them that their body is attractive but you just can't seem to believe them or feel it for yourself. Many, many fat folks have experienced this! What could your partner say (if anything) to make you truly believe them? What if your partner has made comments that have sent you ruminating about how they actually prefer thin people? How do we overcome this frustrating feeling? What’s it like for our partners who hear us yuk their yum? All that and more in this episode!
