[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, most women are more motivated to look good when they are complimented not criticized.  So find something you like about your wife's appearance and compliment it.  Tell her that you love when she wears [insert whatever you actually like on her that she feels confident in].  When you give her positive feedback on the things that you like, that will encourage her to do them more. (Assuming that you also put effort into your appearance).

Even though I’m somewhat overweight my husband often compliments me on how I look and I really appreciate it after many years. Part of my being attracted to him is just that. [/quote]

So I should compliment her even if it's a lie? [/quote]

You need to look harder to find something you like.  Do you think you are a middle aged prince and it's easy to find you attractive?[/quote]

In my 30's and 40's my wife complained that I was "underweight" (though I was about 5'9" 175 and ran more marathons) and that I needed more weight so I could appear to be more manly.

I  started lifting weights more in my 50's (gaining the weight she wanted me to gain) and definitely think I look better than I did 10 years ago.

Meanwhile, she let herself go.

So there's that.[/quote]

You sound like a wimp. Stop complaining and divorce her instead of being a sad sack. [/quote]

I don't want to break up my family.[/quote]

The stop being a sad sack[/quote]
