I'm a Slim Muslim Girl Seeking marriage, and I Won't Settle for Less!

A few years ago, I was the most miserable person you could imagine. I was overweight, suffered from extreme anxiety and depression, and had horrible self-esteem issues. So when I met my husband, I couldn't believe he was actually interested in me—it was the best day of my life!

Today, I'm happy to say that I've lost 100 pounds, am finally enjoying life again, and my marriage has never been better! You can read all about what it's like to be married to a larger Muslim woman here!

Where Am I Now?

I am currently in my final year of university, studying to be a teacher. I have always been slim, but after years of yo-yo dieting, I am finally at a healthy weight that I am happy with.

My friends and family often tell me that I should start looking for a husband, but I have always been too busy with school and work to even think about it. Now that I have graduated and am about to start my career, I am finally ready to start looking for my future husband.

What Do People Think of Me?

Some people think that because I am a slim Muslim girl, I must be easy to control. But that is not true! I know what I want in life, and I won't settle for anything less. Marriage is one of the most important decisions you will ever make, so it's important to do your research. And that's exactly what I'm doing.

Men Are Afraid of Me

I'm a slim Muslim girl, and I've been told that men are afraid of me because of my size. I refuse to settle for less than what I deserve in a husband, and I won't let my size hold me back from finding the man of my dreams.

Get Over yourself and quit being so picky.

It's time to get over yourself and your ridiculous list of must-haves in a partner. No one is perfect, so quit being so picky and give someone a chance. Maybe you'll be surprised at what you find.

The Things that Matter in a Partner vs. the Things That Don’t

When it comes to finding a life partner, there are certain things that matter – and certain things that don’t. Things like religious beliefs, cultural values, and personality traits are important. But when it comes to physical appearance, there is much more flexibility.

As a slim Muslim girl seeking marriage, I am open to partners of all shapes and sizes. And I refuse to settle for anything less than the perfect match for me—in every way that matters.

If You Are Too Fat, Guys Won’t Even Talk to You

In the Muslim community, there is a lot of pressure on women to be slim. If you are overweight, it is seen as a reflection of your character – that you are lazy, undisciplined, and lack self- control. This is especially true when it comes to marriage. Many men will not even consider marrying a girl who is not slim.

Women Also Put Themselves in Boxes

We women, especially Muslim women, are often told that we need to settle down and get married. And when we do start looking for a spouse, we're often encouraged to find someone who is stable and has a good job. But what if we don't want to settle? What if we want more out of life than just a husband and two kids?
