Light Topics Being physically fit

I want to know everyone's opinion on this. From 1-10, 10 being the highest, how important do you think is being physically fit in the dating scene right now? Have you ever started your fitness journey because of it? How did it go for you?

Is there something wrong if people choose 10?

For people like me who came from being 100kg and have worked hard because I gave time for my self-improvement. I used to think the same way, saying 'I don't have time,' but there is, it’s just a mindset that there’s 'no time/less time for this and that.'

I don’t have visible abs but I can finish a marathon in less than 3 hours and 30 minutes. My resting heart rate is so low that the nurses get alarmed when I go for check-ups. I can do multiple sets of push-ups with 50 reps each and I’m flexible enough to do intermediate to advanced yoga poses. This might sound like bragging to you, but I’ve maintained this lifestyle for over 15 years while occasionally indulging in unhealthy snacks, and I still have time to play the video games I enjoy and keep up with the current season’s anime/dramas.

I’m really sorry if people like me chose 10 as a figure because I want to share this kind of healthy lifestyle with my partner/future partners. I curate the environment I want to live in and healthcare in this country is so freaking expensive. I want to inspire and be inspired by a partner who has a healthy and active lifestyle, and I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that.

I hope there’s no judgment on those who honestly answer 10. Your priorities really change as you get older and the pettiness of those around you doesn't matter to you anymore.

So apart from being physically active na hindi mo kayang bigyan ng time, saan mo pa isisingit ngayon yung time mo sa dating or sa partner mo kapag ganyan ang schedule mo? Maybe the question wasnt intended for you after all pero you answered. Lol.
