[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think your options are basically accept it or don't accept it.

I'm the wife in our case. I love exercising - I do it a couple hours every day. If my husband never got off the couch again, he'd be happy.

We've talked about it every which way and at the end of the day, it's just not up to me. He is his own person with his own body, and even if he'd be healthier - and would feel better about himself, and all those things - he's just not interested in exercising more. Or at all.

I don't know what else there is to do about it. You don't get to make someone else be who you want them to be, even if you sure do know what's good for them.

My advice for you and your wife is - just accept that she is who she is, and it's not the person who wants to exercise a lot. If you can't accept that, then - well, you know.[/quote]

I'm a planner by trade, and we always run "no-build" scenarios for any improvement we consider. I am aware that this might very well be such a case and I might have to accept it and  move forward. But I thought it would be productive to at least try. I am not going to divorce over something like this, I know what battles to fight and which ones to concede.[/quote]
