The Teflon Frog
I was just curious about the other married folks here on the web boards (or those going steady), why you enjoy Dimensions, what it is that interests you, and what your spouses (or sig. others) think of you being on the Dims boards (dare I say... if they know at all...) Also if your spouses are on the Dim boards, who they are... (Maybe they'll chime in too!)
So here's my story...
I am in fact a married guy. I have been on the Dimensions boards for a long time (pretty much since the beginning, initially just lurking...), but only recently have I become more active. I guess the main reason that I became active again on the Dims Boards, is that my wife and I have fallen out of the NAAFA / size acceptance scene since after getting married. I miss hanging around the "fat folks"; we have met many great people, made good friends, and had lots of fun adventures in the size acceptance scene. My wife and I met at a Big Difference Dance (L.A. area), and attended them (also More 2 Luv dances) for a while afterwards, but eventually life led us other directions. We used to be active in our local NAAFA chapter until it basically went defunct following the death of one of the chapter's founding members. I used to maintain our website (for those who remember my lousy HTML and podunk sense of humor.) I didn't particularly tell my wife that I was on the Dimensions Boards, but I didn't hide it from her either. She recently joined herself, has been lurking, and posts here and there. I think she was initially (or may still be) apprehensive about me being on the Dim boards. No doubt she finds my posts enlightening and mind numbing at the same time...
Maybe she can embellish upon this more...
I mostly hang out on these boards:
Main Dims Board
The Lounge
Weight Board
The Clubhouse
My wife is "mtnmaiden":
