very few people truly "change." If she isn't into exercise now (when she's young and it is realtively "easy"), she likely won't be into it long term. People can change almost anything in the short run. Long run? Nope.

It is said that a woman enters a relationship assuming she can change her man, while a man enters assuming (hoping?) she will never change.

If the body is a hang up for you, then you've got problems. I have yet to meet a woman who is happy with her own body, so that insecurity is a given. But if you aren't charged up about how she looks right *now*, you won't be able to provide genuine "honey you look great" comments.

But another question is what about you? Are you ripped with a 6-pack and full head of hair? Match is interesting...seems that everyone (both sexes) is looking for about the same thing. The men all need to be 5'10" and above without a beer gut and not flabby, and the women all have to be lean and maybe with a decent rack. Oh yeah, and they have to make you laugh....but in a good way.

and btw, why search that far away? There are tons of women closer to home. Unless you have a brit fetish, look closer to your own backyard so this kind of dilemma won't be such an issue.
