Online Dating for Chubby Chasers

Why does the larger woman in the next cubicle have a satisfied smirk on her face every Monday morning? Chances are good that she’s found one of the many online dating sites for chubby chasers that are out there. Online dating isn’t just for the slim anymore. Larger women will usually have a harder time on standard online dating sites, as a lot of chubby chasers don’t tend to frequent those sites anymore. They are too busy checking out the specialty sites out there that are cropping up for BBW’s (big beautiful women) all over the place.

What exactly is a Chubby Chaser?
This term is a bit hard to pin down. Wikipedia defines it as “a term that refers to a person who is attracted to an overweight sexual partner”. While the term overweight is subjective, any size over a 16 may be considered chubby chaser material. What kind of man is usually a chubby chaser? All kinds. Many men are sick of the underweight images that the media throws at them and prefer a woman with a little more meat on her bones.

Matchmaker
8.7/10

More than anyone else on the list, Matchmaker makes good use of being an online tool. With some great search features, including keyword search, they make it pretty easy to comb through the site to find the right person. The only reason that they didn't score higher on our list is because their profiles are a little too thin.

Great search functionality. Free trial membership. They don't have advertising banners that clutter up the site.

GO
eHarmony
8.5/10

eHarmony has a ton of members, a TON, and that alone is enough to make it into our top 5. But add to that the fact that their compatibility profiles are fantastic and really work, and you've got a great dating site.

Huge data base of users. Awesome profile questions that really reveal personality. Has a sectioned for married people that keeps helping once you've found "the one".

GO
Yahoo! Personals
8.3/10

Yahoo! Personals comes with all of the benefits of being a Yahoo property. First of all, it's HUGE. Second, it's well designed, easy to use, and integrates with Yahoo Messenger. But most importantly, it offers a pretty beefy 7 day trial that let's you get started right away. The only draw back is that its automated matching isn't as strong as PerfectMatch or Eharmony, so you're going to have to do the work yourself. If you're willing to do the work though, this is a great site.

7 day free trial. Sections for both casual daters and people seeking serious relationships. Can sort profiles by when the person last logged on so that you never waste time searching out-dated profiles.

Big Beautiful Women (BBW) now have a “safe” place to go where they don’t have to face the habitual rejection that they will find on conventional online dating sites. People are not very accepting on those sites – I was told I was too fat when I was a size 12 on various dating sites. Now they have a place to go where they don’t need to worry about constant rejection, where they know that men are into them for them, and not for the skinny person that they feel is waiting inside of them.chubby chaser

 

There are a few special considerations for chubby chaser dating, from both gender perspectives. Women will be bombarded on these sites, and should try to be courteous to all the people who contact them. If you don’t like a guy based on something in his profile, send him a message saying why you do not think you are compatible – this gives him a chance to explain himself. If you don’t like him because of his appearance or something else that may affect his self-esteem, send him a courteous note thanking him for his interest but your dance card is full right now – chances are good that if you are on one of these sites it will not be a falsehood.

If you are the chubby chaser, remember not to come off sounding like a frat boy playing a prank. Be yourself, and talk about your own interests and activities in your profile, not just how much you want to “get with” BBW women. There are also a lot of men who are just on BBW sites to “pump and dump” – if you can put across the impression that you are not one of these people, you’ll be most of the way to the top of the pile for most of the ladies that you contact.

The chubby chaser men on the site are actually better looking than those I have seen on conventional dating sites, such as EHarmony or Lavalife. I have to say that I really didn’t expect that. There is also a more mature crowd on here; where conventional sites have a lot of twenty-somethings, bbwcupid.com has a nice range of 30 to 45 year old men, who again are very attractive!

chubby chasers datingThe interface is also very easy to use, and while e-mails aren’t free, flirts are. The advanced search costs money to use, so when you first sign up you will just be able to see people from your country. Other features include chat rooms and an onsite instant messaging client, similar to those from other dating sites. The international flavor is a big bonus; users from all over the world have joined, and this opens up the dating pool significantly.

The women on the site are stunning, some that I saw just on the first page of a search could have been models. Chubby chasers will not be disappointed, and even those who just like a little extra meat won’t go away without more than a few girls on their list. If you’ve run the gauntlet on conventional dating sites, and are sick of the rejection or the lack of healthy looking ladies, you can’t go wrong with a chubby chaser specialty dating site. Give it a try today and see where it leads you!
