[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Three kids here. I met my wife when she was 22 and she does not look the same. But neither do I. I think I'm more turned on by her now than I was then.

This is probably bothering you way more than it bothers him. Most men are mature enough to look beyond the superficial changes.

Have sex by candlelight until you get your confidence back. Everyone looks good in candlelight. [/quote]

What if they are not (and you know this because you have been told so)?[/quote]

How was it said? [/quote]

I would like you to lose 10-15 lbs because it would really help. Kindly and he is not a jerk. But devastating nonetheless. [/quote]

Many men are "solution oriented." If you're complaining about your body to them, this would be their thought- lose weight. Men aren't great at coddling. I know it's what my husband would say too and he's not a jerk either. He probably wants you to lose weight for yourself and so you feel comfortable in your own skin again, not just because he wants to have sex with a thin body. [/quote]

I have never complained. I actually think I am not bad looking. Not the same as when we met, but I exercise and watch what I eat. Which is why this is so devastating. I don't think I can do it. Which doesn't bode well for the future. [/quote]
