+1 Same with my wife. Not exactly the same ages but definitely true. There is a cliche that when a man buys a woman lingerie as a gift for her birthday. etc. it is a really just gift for himself and not for her. In our relationship we acknowledge that reality, and I buy her lingerie and certain kinky stuff for MY birthday - and then we go to a hotel and enjoy it. Best birthdays ever! |
That’s great for you and her. This isn’t the reality for most. When I look around the school pick up, most of the moms are soft and overweight. |
It’s all in the eye of the beholder. If you love someone, they are hot to you. |
See, my DH never does stuff like this, and still wants to complain that our sex life got stale. |
OK but most of their DHs aren’t hard bodies either. |
Exactly. And their wives aren’t asking them to wear cutout chaps or speedo swimsuits. |
15 years later I am same size and weight as when I met DH boobs are bigger and a little sagging, some more stretch marks, and a couple wrinkles. I know DH still thinks I am hot. And over the past couple of years he has definitely more than toned up, defined muscle, 6 pack, PV etc. I know he feels better but I am not more or less attracted to him. And he doesn’t wear speedos but he does wear the European cut short boxer brief style swim trunks. I definitely catch other woman checking him out. |
| I will often wear a simple long silk nightgown for my husband but that’s about it. That nightgown sends a clear message to him that my interest in going to bed has nothing to do with sleep. |
middle aged man here, and that is totally false in my humble opinion. There are lots of incredibly hot Moms in their 30's and 40's at bus stops and school events. Of course there are some pigs too, but that could be said about any age group. Personally I find the hotties in their 40's (including my own wife) way more attractive than the young girls in their 20's. |
+1 totally agree and 90% of them have no idea of how hot they are. |
I often drop my youngest off at pre-school and that reminds me how attractive my wife is. Most women don’t look great in leggings or yoga pants. |
way to miss the point entirely of what PP was responding to. but you do you! |
| No, we're both very much hippies / outdoorsy people. My H's idea of an amazing time would be to go sailing and me being naked 100% of the time or having sex in a tent in the middle of nowhere. |
What does PV mean? |
| It would be so out of character for me to wear anything but a nice nightgown. Thankfully it doesn’t take much to interest my husband. If I showed up dressed like a stripper wearing stilettos he’d just laugh and hope that I hadn’t spent much. |
