[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I took my vows as well, and will love my spouse regardless of size. but I find it bizarre that you are supposed to accept and remain attracted, no matter what your spouse's size/weight/self destructive behavior or else you are a terrible person. Both of us know it is a responsibility to keep our marriage strong and healthy--that includes trying to be healthy ourselves and making an effort to be attractive to each other. If my spouse stopped brushing teeth or bathing, am I supposed to accept it no matter what-- otherwise I am a horrible person? or is it reasonable to expect reasonable effort on the part of each spouse to maintain basic standards of weight and hygiene? I'm not talking perfection here--people age, hair thins, metabolism slows, wrinkles appear. But if you support each other in healthy eating and exercise to maintain reasonable size and health, it seems to me that you should. as for us, we joined a gym together with childcare and try to go a couple times a week together. No negative comments ever made but we make positive comments--you look great, I can tell you've been working out, that shirt looks great on you. [/quote] Agree with you, staying in shape and practicing basic hygeine show respect for your partner. [/quote] I agree 100%. [/quote] Agree. I am a DW and really struggled to lose 40 lbs of baby weight but I work out all the time and generally look pretty good in my 40s. DH on the other hand has gained 40lbs, has an enormous belly, snores now due to the added weight, double chin etc. I don't find him attractive at all. its killing all intimacy between us. And he acts confused as to why I am not into as much anymore. I still love him but too many men complain and they need to look in the mirror.
