But it's not so much about weight as maturity dealing with health problems.

Yeah, the mind set is more worrisome then the weight.

5 Years ago, you married a woman who looked like this:

Now she looks like this:

All the while, you've stayed in shape. She blames it on genetics and goes batshit every time you mention eating healthier or going to the gym.

You've never had kids together and she stays at home all day.

What is your course of action?

I married my husband when he was 175 lbs. and I was 98 lbs. I stood by him when he got up to 264 lbs and I stayed 98 lbs. He has now gotten back down to 175 lbs, and I am 95 lbs.

I never stopped loving him, physically or emotionally. I never stopped thinking he was handsome. Sad to see that's not the case for many of y'all.

I've got a friend and her husband has gained 140+ lbs since he left the service a few years ago. She is 120 lbs and says she still loves him with the weight. But she is much less attracted to him now that he overweight. She still wants to be with him, but has less fisical desire to sleep with him. I'm not sure what she will do in the future.

Is she shallow, or is her reaction to the weight a normal reason for the way she is feeling?

Maybe but my wife put on almost 40lbs after 4 kids and at 39 she said no more

 
And dropped all the weight 120lbs then




She is 130 now at 44




My buddies wife got huge as is 2x Rosie fat, after not losing

Her weight she got surgery and is around 140 now and looks great.




Sorry I don't buy all th excuses I had another buddies wife do the same thing

Through diet and exercise.




I used to believe its natural for some women to gain weight, but after

My wife and my buddies wives I just don't buy it any more

She's not wrong. Attraction is attraction, and we can't really dictate what is or is not attractive to us. The weight didn't put me off, but she's not me. Each person is different. I don't think she's abnormal or shallow, though if she left him over it, that opinion might change.

If my wife got fat, she would soon realize it made me unhappy. She'd bust her ass to get back in shape. If I got fat and made my wife unhappy, I'd do the same. It would never come down to leaving each other. We love each other too much to cause unnecessary unhappiness, and would fix it.

11 years and 2 kids in.  My wife has completely stopped giving a crap about herself.  Gained 100lbs +, has the "speak with the manager haircut" and pretty much has no decency at all anymore...open door on just about every bodily function and doesn't even try to keep herself up.  Snores, farts, burps louder than most of the guys I hang out with.

But I made a promise and I'm a man of my word.

Fair enough. Thanks. I've never found a gal that has been in my friends shoes. Thought I'd through it out there and ask.

Just to add, I do not think she will ever leave him. My guess is if they ever did split, it would be over other something else.

Marriage vows do mean a lot to me but I guess it depends just how fat and why did it happen.  I will say that having an ex that was at one time quite attractive and seeing her balloon up with an ass the size of a Buick a few years later is quite satisfying.

My wife and I have had this conversation. The answer is likely yes.  She's a health nut and it's just a core part of her personality.  If that went away, I'd not want to spend time with her.  More than the looks, it's the change in who she is that would move me.
View Quote


I seesomething like that as being more about understanding the appreciation of human complexity.

A change like that is probably symptomatic of something else not being right.

Health is a function of work life balance, human contact, happiness, environment and mental wellbeing. Sleep, diet, exercise and a range of other things are all contributing factors. If the balance is wrong then health suffers.

I love my wife. It is not a conditional thing based on how she looks. It is the whole package. As we have both got older both of us have changed in some ways. We see it as part of the relationship evolving and responses to how life and time have challenged us. If something like that were to occur I'd want to know why and try to understand what was going on in her life to make her change.  Ultimately though, as long as she is happy then generally speaking, so am I.

YMMV.

Lotta guys are playing beta bucks to obese women.
