Would you leave your wife if she got fat?

Bad as it sounds, i could overlook most things but fat i have issues with..bail!

Gf is size 6-8 i think id have issues at 14, ie no physical attraction. Cant help it
 
I have jokingly threatened my missis about getting a better model etc, but she's just turned around in the past and said "see ya then" When i first got with her she was a nice 10/11 stone size 10/12. Over the years she crept up to a size 18 and almost hit 16stone after the birth of our second child. She's currently 14stone losing weight and loving it at her local classes.

I think a gentle persuasion on their weight should be enough for them to do something about it. If you keep obsessing about it, it's just going to make it worse and make her do the opposite to what you want.
 
I wouldn't initially find many people over size 14/16 attractive but I'd hope that if I'd known and lived with someone for an extended period of time I would love more about them than just their looks, I doubt very much I'd be kidding anyone if I suggested I was going to look as good as I do now at 40, 50 or even older anyway.
 
i find some chunky chicks quite attractive tbh,they'd need to be totaly obese for me to stop loving them( worded that wrong i would never stop loving them i just wouldnt want to have sex with them,my bad:p)
 
I'll trade in the 40 year old fatty for two 20's half the size.

Seriousnly I prob wouldn't dump my wife or GF for getting fat (depends how fat relay) but if was on top of over stuff it would be factored in.
 
Not sure if everyone's serious or just being alpha to look cool.

Now if my wife lost a leg or arm? yeah id dump her in a heartbeat.

that was a bad joke btw.
 
lolkwerk, bringing it time and time again..



I agree with him on one thing though, none of you old fogies are gettin' any! (eww, over 40?, it's disgusting, enough to make me vomit!).

Tis funny - the fillm adaptation of Lord of the Flies (the black and White version) was on last night - it was shot in the 60s - the majority of the cast were of a healthy weight and the boy known as 'piggy' was a bit fatter. I was thinking that, by today's standards, he wouldn't even be considered that fat rather there would be a fair few in his class at school that size and a handful of significantly larger kids. I doubt 'medical problems' that might cause obesity have increased that much since the 60s though I'd be fairly sure that a greater prevalence of crap food and crap parents is to blame for the significant increase in fat kids today.

lol after you said that, I went and had a look on youtube and you're right, he wasn't that fat at all. Most of the other boys were terribly skinny and would definitely be considered underweight by todays standards.
 
I don't think it's something you'd know until it happens, you cannot quanitfy or lay down logic in the belief nothing will make you leave your loved one, or in this case; wife.
After all, people get divorced.

Now, would I, if I? I can't say I would as much as I would not.

People leave for all sorts of reasons, boredom, no more spark, personality changed.
Looks can be as integral as personality, I'd not make such a commitment to either a moronic looker or someone so foul I'd mentally puke but mentally stimulating.

I'm going to air on the side that it wouldn't be wrong if someone did, you cannot control those feelings and if they go, they go. But it's a difficult decision about being honest (so they can try do something about it) or saying something a little less direct to make a bad situation not as bad.

Basically, what would I expect if I became a (more ugly) fat mess.
Exactly, I wouldn't want to stay with me either.
 
Depends on if they are willing to do something about it. You have one life, I don't particularly want to be stuck around banging a fat woman I'm not attracted to physically but more importantly for me, I absolutely without question don't want a fat wife teaching my children bad eating habits.

Bringing up kids is balance between teaching them whats right and not pressuring them into being a depressed mess. Trying to teach your kids the right way to eat healthily and stay healthy and strong while your wife is teaching them the opposite is not going to turn out well.

Having been on the end of that, parents who taught be horrible eating habits, which have effected my life along with many other problems greatly. My eating habits after I became injured with bad joints became a big problem, my life would have been better if I was brought up with different eating habits, that is simply fact, I'd be happier, healthier, have less bad joints and be in less pain and less depressed.

For me its crucial, its a HUGE priority that I do my absolute best to make sure I give my kids the best chance in life at being happy and healthy, a fit healthy wife who knows how to eat and how to teach her kids to eat is crucial to that.


I wouldn't so much leave my theoretical wife for getting fat, as for if it became a problem where she was putting my kids future at risk essentially.

Everything you do in life will be easier, more fun and better if you are fit, healthy and pain free, happier and less self conscious about the way you look.
