I've tried all the different methods of networking, making friends, etc, and I generally try to be kind and also confident.

It just seems that nobody cares about people with a larger body type in the fandom.

Hell I havent even been invited to a room party before, but of course, the few friends i do have all get invited to them and i never get to be the plus one if that option is available.

It fuckin sucks.

I wanna be included in stuff.

Ive been trying to be more active and eat super healthy but honestly it doesnt even seem worth the work.

Just why is it that generally, through my own experience, its either only super thin twinks, super muscular furs, or small muscle guts, no in-between, no diversity in the body types at the parties other than those.

What makes them so attractive to people?

Is the fandom just that damn shallow? Id love to hear other people's thoughts on this because im honestly fed up and depressed after years of being left out and not one offer, even when ive asked them if i could go with them.

Edit: im just really feeling a lot of FOMO and just want to be included in cool stuff other than the panels at cons and tbh i just feel ugly a lot of the time because im not included, even though i try my best to get included in stuff.
