Men: do you notice your wife aging?

[Anonymous]

Wait until 50 comes. You really notice it then. Ass gets flat and the cans turn into tube socks.

My DH says stuff like this too. He met me when I was in my early 20s. My thought is when he met me I was kind of skinny-fat and not as muscular (he loves athletic women) and I am now very, very toned. I am not - definitely not - prettier than I was then, though. Honestly terrified of him truly seeing me age.

I guess. My DH is significantly older and looks way better. I am fit and attractive but easily pass for older than my age. I think it's the way I bear stress (esp. parenting stress) compared to him.

In his 30s? That's too early to look that bad.

DH told me (52) that I am as beautiful as when we met (at 30). He said he doesn't really see that much of a difference.. on my face. My body.. that's a different story after two large babies and csections.

But, yea, I notice we are both old.

Our founding father Ben Franklin put it best-
“lower parts continuing to the last as plump as ever . . . As in the dark all cats are grey, the pleasure of corporeal enjoyment with an old woman is at least equal and frequently superior”

Yes, I guess, but I think she looks great still (in her early 40s), and I love the way she has changed.

We're 50ish and we constantly joke about it. I do notice a little, but I'm still surprised when I see photos of us from 10 or 20 years ago; the difference is stark. We can't do much about wrinkles but we can keep active. We're both about as fit as we were in out 20s, albeit with a lot more effort.

+1 and he made a comment the other day about how I am getting hotter as I age. He had that look that let me know he really meant it. Turned into a very fun night.

Of course we notice...we just know not to say the quiet part out loud.

Not my wife. Solid as a rock. High and tight @ss. Perky natural breasts. She was an athlete and we still workout together 5-6 days per week.

People think she’s a trophy wife when we meet new people because she hasn’t aged.

Same. He thought I was too skinny in my mid 20s. Now in our 50s and literally everyday he’s chasing me with a boner. We both wah.

When picking a wife look at it as a dog show and make sure all areas are up to par, ensure athletics and health are important part of her life.

If you haven’t noticed, women are aging better than men, look at Lisa Hartman, Diane Keyton, Jane Seymour then look at Axl Rose, Mickey Rourke and Al Pacino
It’s men that are looking worse

Society needs to stop brainwashing women into thinking it’s not fair

So true at my 30th HS reunion!!! I couldn’t even recognize some of my old male classmates. The women looked relatively the same.

I'm 40. Inexplicably, my DH insists on trying to get me to dress sluttier and sluttier as the years pass. I suppose it's cute, but he claims he does not notice.
