Fellow man here. I’m with you. Men are not attracted to fat women. We have to be honest about this. No reason to beat around the bush.

You're fat as well so....

Woman here -
Stupidest reply.
We owe an obligation to ourselves and our family to be in good healthy shape for so many reasons.

He also compliments if I cook, compliments me if something goes well at work, tells me what a great mom I am. Thanks me for the stuff I do around the house and for the family. Granted, it works both ways. I compliment him and thank him for what he does.

This^ is how it works. Marriage isn't a unicycle but a bicycle.

Why? I am athletic and fir. Why would i find my fat wife attractive? What’s worse is she didn’t even realize how fat she got until i pointed it to her and asked her to lose weight

Do you make it possible for her to go to the gym? My friend has a DH like you and he always made comments about her weight and appearance. And yet he never could be bothered to watch their 2 little kids so she could actually go to the gym.

Pp here. I like this. DH and I have a fantastic marriage and always have. I hope our teenage son sees how DH treats me (and how I treat him) and makes a good partner some day.

If he isn't helping out physically and emotionally, she'll be unhappy and overwhelmed and vice versa. Happy marriage and fair division of work gives people a chance to focus on themselves.

Some people only have good looks to offer so in those cases, it wouldn't be shallow but honest.

Then who’s the idiot for marrying someone when the only good thing about them is their looks?

Why the hate.
A lot of women look better with some curves.

So her body was the only aspect of her you value?

Nothing else you could compliment her on?

Geez. Have you shared that with her.

I didn’t tell her I don’t find her attractive anymore as I don’t wont to hurt her feelings. But i did tell her that she is overweight and she needs to lose some

You don't call a person you love a fat wife. You say my wife who has weight issues. You don't ask her to loose weight, you ask her to eat healthy, workout and get annual medical check up.

I did try the bolded for over a year but she wasn’t getting the message. Finally I had to be more direct and it is working out much better

Some people are really good at masking their personality

Slight curves, yes. Looking perpetually pregnant, no

I do compliment on other aspects. But it’s hard for me to ignore the fat
