Then you must be a horrible nag and lousy in bed.

Fuck off, you loser. What are you doing on a mom site!

I hate to tell you but there are a lot of us men on this site. I would guess 1/3 on the relationship forum. And, all of the women aren't moms. You know that, right?

Definitely nag less.

Honesty, that's about 80 percent of it. Also, don't get fat.

Those two accomplishments will instantly place you in the 90th percentile of women.

I won't if you won't, sweetpea.

x2. A ton (pun intended) of entitled male fatties out there.

you do know that after 30, we gain 1/2 lb of fat and lose 1/2 of muscle per year. So it is uphill work for both men and women.

Not really. Count calories and lift weight and you'll be fine.

Sure, I lost my 25lb on 1200 cal/day. I would like to see guys living on 1200 cals for a month.

We men don't have to in order to lose weight. 2000 cals/day and I'm good.

Right. That was precisely the PP's point. You can consume far more calories for the same or better results with the same or less energy expenditure.

I'm too old fashioned, perhaps. I love dressing up for my husband sometimes, just so he can look at me anew and realize what a hottie I am. I like to occasionally treat him to a nice home cooked meal after a long day at work. I want to please him and make him happy since he does so much for me all the time.

You're more likely to stay (happily, overall) married, imho.

Agreed. I most definitely have more muscle mass at 37 than I did at 27. Having children really motivated me to get back into shape.

All of these complaints about how staying in shape and maintaining long hair are too difficult are undermined by all the times I've seen recently divorced women lose weight, grow their hair out, and generally improve their appearance. They didn't get younger or develop fewer responsibilities. They simply became motivated.

I am surprised this has not come up as often as body and hair: face. Women spend just as much money and time on their skin, in pursue of youth (yes, we care just as much, if not more than you guys).

Does it mean we are wasting our time doing facial, applying products, doing makeup? Or is this just part of the implicit deal of look young and pretty?

But you should try to subsist on 1200 cals for a while so you know how hard your wife tries

Maybe the marriage was depressing for both?

Yup..it's called the divorce diet. I'm planning my exit and believe me you, I've lost weight, working out, wardrobe change, new tits, and a chemical peel...all on "our" time and money. I about to drop the bomb and I'm going to hit the ground running.

I know. It is a symbol of youth and vitality. When you get older, your hair is thin, dry and you will either look mousy or unkempt with long hair.

Seriously. Women who cling to their long hair when it's thinning and brittle don't look much different then men with a comb-over. This, men, is why older women cut their hair short and it's far more attractive than in-your-face "I'm clinging to my youth" desperation of the female comb-over.

Why do you keep on and on about these 1200cal? Move more stop with the yo-yo diets. Your body is pratically hibernating. And I don't mean more exercise. I mean move more all day. Step away from the car, get off the sofa, get off DCUM. How much time you've spent carrying on about these 1200cal this morning you could have cranked on your metabolism today with a 2 mile walk to the store and back again.

You sound pretty lazy and selfish, no wonder the marriage didn't work out for you.

Men take note: be sure to pay close attention to the divorced lady's size and appearance in the months/years before her divorce.
Better believe that's her "comfort zone" size and she will be right back there soon after she's reattached.
Do NOT be fooled by her temporary "divorce diet" figure.

If I were your DH, I'd think you were having an affair.

Don't be ridiculous, of course there is fewer responsibilities. No more cooking for a man, no more laundry, free evenings...OF COURSE there's more time.
