[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Did your vows say, "Till death or fat do us part?"

Did you disclose your refusal to love and respect her if her body shape would change?

Have you ever actually observed, say, human beings to see how people typically age?  What percentage of people look as attractive after 30 years?  Why would you marry someone for life assuming they would look even remotely the same after decades?

No my vows did not say that. But loss of physical attraction causes a marriage to deteriorate over time, and the spouse who chooses to get fat needs to know their role in the situation. Intimacy slows down. Resentments build. You begin to notice that dreamy new person at work.

Aging is 100% unavoidable, but getting fat is 100% avoidable. Don't confuse the things about our appearance that cannot be controlled versus those that can.

It is quite reasonable to think that if you marry somebody who is thin and exercises regularly, this person would continue to want to remain thin and to exercise after 30 years.
