[quote=Anonymous]OP, I don't think you're getting what people are saying.  This is the man you married and you seem to have this kind of detached, cold view of him from your posts.  His infractions seem to boil down to social awkwardness and lack of being a go-getter.  You write like you think you are doing him a favor by being married to him (noting he can't do better).  But many women adore this kind of dude and find it endearing.  I have friends who go for this kind of guy.  A little extra around the middle just isn't a huge deal either.

If you are this concerned about appearances, I suggest you think long and hard about being in this relationship.  This likely isn't going to be some sort of Pygmalion situation so if you can't handle him, you owe it to both of you to make a clean break.  You can probably do some work around the edges (for example, I often buy my husband clothes and he wears them, though I do it because he just doesn't like shopping).  But unless he personally is on some sort of quest to change his personality he is who he is.  So either embrace him or let him go.  You're not doing him (or yourself) any favors by describing him as cringeworthy.[/quote]
