My friends head would explode if his wife lost 100lbs and then started dating me.

I would never do that, but it would be pretty damn funny.

You are on drugs. Kids clearly understand the tension, and start to internalize it. Parents don't realize it at the time, because they're too focused on the adult things, but even kids under 6 know there is something wrong.

Especially if you have any girls, this is the WRONG lesson to teach them, because they are absolutely learning from what they see. You think you're having an argument where the kinds can't hear? Nah, they know. If you have resentment towards a partner, for whatever reason, you teach girls it's OK to take it, and boys it's OK to give off those emotions.

Get out, and let them move on without the turbulence that is two adults that stress each other the F out.

Obviously, try therapy a couple of times, but when you eventually come to the conclusion that that female is not to take much, if any responsibility, and the change all needs to happen on your part, pull the ejection handles. Your kids will be better for it, unless you're married to a ... can't use the word. If you are, your kids will need therapy anyway. My kids have no idea why I got a divorce, and they will not know, unless they ask me post their first enlistment (hopefully in the USCG, because it's hard to be woke when the ocean is trying to kill you every second.) That's not their problem, it's mine.

Can't count how many times I have seen fat wives drop weight and then file.

They know damn well they are not attractive and fix the problem before moving on.

Whole thread is stupid because we don't really know what is going on in that family.

However, after my parents divorced when I was 4, I saw my dad once a year for a week until I was grown. I am much closer to him than I am with my mom and I have been married for 25+ years to my one and only wife. We both put a lot of effort into our relationship because we love each other. If both aren't invested then it is understandable to end it because we only get one life and deserve to live it to the fullest.

Back in the day my rule was to check out the mom before even considering getting serious.

If mom's fat hard pass even if the girl had a great bod.

A friend of mine


Haven’t read the ten pages yet, but what’s this guy look like? What’s his physique? Body fat percentage?

What kind of ambitions does he still have in life? How does lead his family in fun, vision, and purpose?

Does he have a developed social life that he invites his wife into?

Does he have guy friends?

How well does he contribute to the daily responsibilities of the family?

In other words, how well has he maintained attractive masculine traits during all of this?

I have heard the trick to get a script and get it covered is to load up on sugary drinks and go get a test that shows your sugar is elevated, A1C will show them you're not diabetic but apparently "pre-diabetes" will work. I don't take those but a similar drug for actual diabetes and retail is about $250/wk.

The meds aren't real enjoyable but they're not terrible for most people, they say if you stop the weight comes right back, makes sense, if I miss a dose my blood sugar will be sky high within a few days. Still Way cheaper than divorce.

I wouldn't want to be in that position, I'm not the least bit attracted to larger women, I'd probably have to drink myself stupid or cheat, neither of which are very desirable either.

My wife and I are both shallow when it comes to looks, which works well for us as we keep each other in check in the weight department.

How about a pic of the back on the market divorcee pre-100 lb weight gain so I can be on the lookout?

100% agreed.

Men are the romantics. Women are the romantee (if you will.) It would he hard to make a woman feel like you wanted her romantically when she intentionally drove a mack truck through that agreement on purpose.

I’d say I know roughly 15-20 couples from pre marriage 10 plus years ago

I’d say it’s far more common to see the husband gain more weight post marriage than the wife

Yeah, how much of a paycheck is she bringing home again? Let's weigh in on that (no pun intended.)

Men are success objects. Women are sex objects. That's the way it has been since we learned to draw on walls of a cave, for a really good reason.

But if she decides she is bored, or simply says I just don't love you anymore, she's stunning and brave.
