Yes. The first woman that approached me in a club. I was a fat boy most of my life, lost a bunch of weight during university, but was still very very insecure due to trauma and some residual skin/fat.

She simply came up to me and said "Hi, I find you incredibly attractive." - very simple statement, but this was the first time I had seriously considered the possibility that a woman would be attracted to me.
