Poor fitness linked to weaker brain fiber, higher dementia risk

@nradov - yes you are right! I promote knowledge of this to people when I can. Just doing some now again can have a similar effect as prozac and similar meds as far as percentage of people helped from what I understand.

I think it helps for many different reasons too, some physical, some just seeing the world differently.

My point with statement above was just not to be a blanket absolutist.

There was a time in my life when I looked at my obese friends and wondered why they did not get that X calories - X movement = whatever.

I learned later in life that sometimes it's not so simple, whether it's genes, or types of food that are different, the way they were raised, emotional issues that were not treated, medications for one thing that caused another... there are so many things I do not know just by looking at someone. The same with them looking at me.

As cruel as it might seem, you need to prioritize yourself when looking for a relationship and if 'exercises' is a useful heuristic to you when choosing who to date so be it - the other person's concerns, excuses and reasons are not your problem.
