Generally kids pick up behavior from their parents and their peers. Not what we tell them to do. What they actually really do.


Exactly. So they will either learn that their father’s love & respect is conditional on their appearance or they will learn that the only people who have a certain appearance are valuable and worthy of their love and respect. Either way, congrats on decent eating habits in a depressed or shitty human being assuming they didn’t develop an eating disorder.

By divorcing the fat mom, he can still teach them good eating habits and it will stand out even more when compared to another over weight parent with bad eating habits.

I don’t have an issue with him divorcing her if he’s not attracted to her anymore and there wasn’t enough love to bridge that gap. I DO have a problem with him staying with a woman he doesn’t live and respect until his kids are 18, especially if he is fat shaming and disrespectful of their mother. Those lessons are hard to unteach once kids live them through their entire childhood.

I think y’all are being a little rough on the dude

If this dude is out there divorcing his kids’ mom because her tits ain’t as high as they used to be or she’s got the c-section scar, yea that’s fricked, but ONE HUNDRED POUNDS is an insane amount of weight

I’m imagining the truth is somewhere in the middle where she gained a bit of a weight and he was a bit of a dick, but I’d be surprised if any straight man was willing to stick with his wife if she gained 100 pounds. For an average thin person to gain 100 pounds, that takes her from 115-130 to 215-230. That’s a legit unit of a woman. That’s get out of breath walking up the stairs weight. And where do you draw the line? If she gains 200 is it ok? 300?

I imagine, like mentioned, their relationship was already messed up. Healthy, active, supportive people don’t gain 100 pounds, atleast not normally. He should’ve recognized she was unhappy and eating through it, worked on their relationship, and figured out active things they could have done together. At some point there is a breaking point though IMO

Give those kids all sorts of psychological issues because his wife was fat. More guys should definitely be like that.


Well, being fat is also a psychological issue she is teaching them.

100 lbs is an unhealthy amount of weight to gain.

If he was an arse hole and become unattractive to her emotionally, she'd get all the support in the world for leaving him.

This is why marriage is a sham for men. She can do what she wants, not give a shite and now she gets half of everything, only to repeat the cycle again with some other dude.

I hate to see any marriage fall apart, especially when kids are involved, but I can understand his frustration.

Who wants to be an ATM in an affection-less marriage where he's being spoken to sharply.

Good for him. For better or worse, doesn't give her the right to stop taking care of herself. Nobody wants to be wheeling a fat arse around Walmart and spending a small fortune on meds because she thinks it's ok.

I don't want to be that guy, do you?

It's true. The difference between a pussy that has passed kids through it and one that hasn't is like the difference between OJs glove the night he wore it to kill Nicole and the day he tried to slide it on in court.

Should've gotten caught cheating. She would've filed then and he would get what he wanted anyway.

He could put a gun to her head and tell her to lose the weight or else, but, some of her kin would probably frown on that, too.

100 pounds overweight is 100 pounds overweight. Cardiovascular disease doesn't give a frick how many kids you have. What an ignorant arse comment.

I can’t imagine this guy was actually nice to her about losing weight. Maybe if he worked out with her and encouraged her it may have turned out different. Having kids does a number on our bodies and while some women can bounce back the majority can’t and it takes ALOT of work to get there. And in the process of getting there something in the house will suffer that mom usually takes care of.

To be a slob, you only have to gain 1 pound a year.

I mean how many pounds overweight should you be by age 50? I’ll give you 10 pounds because you’re big-boned.

Dad statement and question I’ll never ever forget.

2 thoughts. 1, I think this is embellished by you for some odd rant reason. 2, if not embellished, your "friend" is a low life with an equally low IQ. Choose a better sphere.

I’m not in favor of her bad health. I just don’t see divorce as the solution and creates more damage for the innocent kids involved instead of the selfish arse parents.
