i always thought that it was about a gay man using a fat girl to stay in the closet. "promise you'll say if i'm ever in your way" to me suggests that he could take her or leave her, and doesn't want to impose if she has any other options. however, she likely has low self esteem so i guess he doesn't see any problem in using her as his beard.
