Why are more women suddenly interested in me?

Not many women were interested in me before but after I've been going out with a woman who is a little on the chubby side, they suddenly wanna talk to me and know if I wanna come by for dinner or go for a swim with them or something like that. Lol, what happened?

I've been in my relationship for a very long time now but I did notice that change too.

Here's my theory:

When you're on the lookout for a partner it can colour how you treat women. At the same time, women often find unwelcome sexual attention from men uncomfortable if not threatening.

So when you're no longer looking, your interactions with other women are going to be more relaxed and natural. They'll be treated more like people as opposed to sexual prospects. And -that- is attractive.
