I couldn’t stay married if she got fat. Not chubby. I could be cool with that. Fat? Like big big?

Sorry. Gotta go. I keep myself in shape and they should, too. If you let yourself go I think you’re lazy and sloppy.

I’m overweight a tad but I try to hit the gym twice a week. I expect her to recognize when she might need to do something about it and eat better. She has and that works for me.

I think it’s a healthy expectation for each spouse to maintain a reasonable appearance. Usually when one or the other starts getting fat and/or lazy is when the cheating happens...

She's not "obligated" to do a thing for me. If she wants to stay beautiful for herself, then by all means. But to say she has to do something to keep me or change in some way to keep me defeats the whole purpose of marriage. I married her for the person she is, not the one I feel she should be.

I believe I am obligated to stay attractive for my wife. She believes she is obligated to stay attractive for me. But mostly, we feel obligated to stay healthy for each other and our children. I hate being fat. So does she. Staying fit and trim is mostly an obligation to oneself.

Most men go into a marriage thinking their spouse will never change. Most women go into a marriage thinking their spouse will change. They are both wrong.

Time and mostly childbirth will cause a women's body to change. It is the mental changes that go along with the physical that become an issue.

Whatever bothers a woman about their spouse before they get married with bother them 20x more after they are married and that's when the nagging starts happening. Many women think marriage is the fix for every issue pre-marriage and more often than not, they are rudely awakened.

Truth be told, while most people are physically attracted to their spouse before marriage, there has to be a stronger foundation than looks for most marriages to work. Marriage/families take constant effort and the right attitude to last.

I’m of the opinion that people should stay fit for themselves. If that’s not enough motivation, then a SO should provide that motivation at a bare minimum.

Depends. If she suddenly became obese and stopped caring about her appearance...than yea I'd have an issue with it. Doesn't mean I expect her to stay fit firm and beautiful constant but I do think expecting her to take care of herself if I am is absolutely fair.

I expect my man to stay fit, or I will hire a buff pool boy.

No really! I love my wife (51 years on our way to forever) and I see the beauty within her, even when her hair is a mess and in her bathrobe and slippers. Stick to your commitment in your marriage and one day you'll understand where I'm coming from. We're getting older and disease is taking it's toll. I dread the day I will have to say goodbye to her.

One day at a time sweet Jesus.....one day at a time.

My sister in law told her then husband that if he got fat she would divorce him. He did get fat and she did divorce him.
