[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband wanted me to be skinny and smart. I'm still skinny after a bunch of kids and we are pretty happy so I guess it worked. [/quote]

So he'd turf you out if you gained some weight? Ah, true love  :roll: [/quote]
He's a great guy- I'm not about to gain weight to find out! [/quote]

Doesn't sound great.
And since when is "skinny" attractive? Fit or thin yes but skinny no.[/quote]

Skinny is attractive. Thin is not attractive.

No way. Skinny is thin on overdrive. [/quote]
Realistically in marriage one should try to make the other happy physically. Your wife likes a beard? Grow it. Your husband wants you to be slim? Prioritize losing weight. No biggie.

So how many men on DCUM need to head to the gym RIGHT now by this logic? [/quote]they should and they'd have happier marriages if they did if this is something their wife is attracted to.[/quote]

My ex always complained and said I should never go over a size 6. As long as I knew him he had a fat gut, fat neck, and little energy or stamina. I didn't judge him for it, but I should have. I have always exercised, not consistently but generally with good dietary habits.

My new partner is very fit, very attractive, healthy eater, healthy emotionally, good cook and beautiful smile. While I have never been overweight, I do have fitness goals - he is fully accepting of me if I never meet them, but also very encouraging in maintaining a life style to support longevity, not simply for looks. He isn't preachy, and he practices what I value in principle.

Loving someone really is about finding joy in giving a person what they need to be better. It is nice when it is effortless.[/quote]
