As a general rule, women aren't as preoccupied with physical appearance as men. Personally, I have a very wide range of physical types that I find attractive. And if you're smart and funny and treat me well, you'd practically have to be the Elephant Man to put me off. Women are much more likely to develop physical attraction to someone over time, rather than be instantly struck by lust/whatever (and when this happens to me, it's usually a bad sign, not a good one).

So, ask her out!

And I agree with Plan9 and others who have recommended you start working out. You probably look fine, but you'll *feel* better, and that's what's most important. I know if I dont' do yoga a few times and take a few long walks/jogs every week, I feel really blech.

And yeah, relax! Stop obsessing! Dating is supposed to be fun, remember?
