How do I find a man that loves me for more than my body?
1 [21f], have very small boobs and am nearly flat chested. About a year ago I got out of a relationship with a man that would make comments about how my chest made me look like a 12 year old boy. After him, I went on a date with a guy who told me that my ex probably didn't like small boobs, and that he didn't like my body either. I was friends with this guy for a bit but have recently stopped being friends with him because he would publicly make jokes about my chest to our mutual friends. My coworkers also make comments about how small my boobs are and how they're my only "flaw" and how I need to get a boob job, and generally people have mocked my chest my entire life.
Needless to say these experiences have completely turned me off from dating. Is it completely hopeless for me and should I just give up? I’m okay with this outcome but I really want to start a family someday, I just don’t want to change myself for someone else.
I really would rather be single for the rest of my life than get a boob job, and I don't want to be with a man who thinks I need to get a boob job either, so I was just wondering how I could know who the right guy for me is when I have a trait that the majority of people are disgusted by. I want someone that loves me for me and not just my chest but I don’t know where I would find this person. Should I keep looking or should I just accepted that I’m just not meant to date?
