Dear Queenie,
I’m taller than my girlfriend, but I’m so skinny that I weigh less than she does. She comments about this sometimes and I get the impression that I make her feel fat, even though she has a marvellous figure and isn’t the least bit overweight.
Queenie, do you think she will get over this hang-up?—The Thin Man
Dear Thin Man,
Women seem to have evolved to prefer men who are bigger (read heavier as well as taller) than they are. Try to gain some weight and, while you are about it, do some exercising that will turn the new weight into muscles, not fat.
Your doctor or a nutritionist can recommend an appropriate diet and a professional trainer can recommend the appropriate exercises.
