I'm going to get slammed, but after two kids and some serious back surgery, my wife gained 80 lbs and though I do love her, it's really difficult to keep the sexual desire there. She complains how she looks gross all the time (I would NEVER tell her that-I'm nothing but supportive), but has no will power to do anything about it (been trying diets and exercise for years). After we get our house, I'm thinking of getting her that lap-band surgery then we'll both feel better
Anyway, I feel really shallow for thinking like that, but it's something that can't be helped. I would never leave her over it, but we'd both like her to drop some pounds. She gets really jealous and insecure as well because I'm in great shape, fairly good looking, and work around some attractive females at the office. It kind of sucks sometimes when you have to worry that the wife isn't going to believe the truth about why you're late from the office. If she was able to feel better about herself, this behavior would probably go away.
Wow, no comments from the peanut gallery that is ATOT. I'm stunned.:shocked:Originally posted by: Fritzo

If you don't care about her enough to look past a small weight gain, then you shouldnt be together in the first place. So, it needs to end, seriously, you aren't grown up enough for a _real_ relationship yet.

I'm in a simular situation myself. My girl as gone from a size 6 to a 18 in the last 2 years or so.
So, do I tell her? I always grab her fat and stuff, just to let her know that I am on to her and her getting fat ways. But these gentle fat grabs are not cuttin it. She needs to lose weight ASAP. I feel like I am out of her league :/.

Okay, I had dated this girl for maybe 3-4 years off and on. She is smart, funny, would do anything for me, etc etc.
Someone posted these links, so Ill just use these:
I wana show yall the fat I am talking about. If people want it, i can show you, after I edit out the face and non-atot friendly body parts.
Its a camera phone, i just posted it to get the general idea of how she looked. That picture was taken like 2 years ago. She has since gained maybe 10-15 pounds. Not a WHOLE lot I know, But i wana nail hot chicks. She is no longer attractive to me. She is begning to .... look like her mother... *shudder*. I guess I knew this was a possibility all along. But it is time get the message across, that unless she wants to become as hot as she used to be, there is no place for her in my life.
That is based on some assumptions:
1. 1/3rd of an adult sexual relationship is based on... sex! If I can not have great sex with her anymore, maybe its time for her to go.
2. If I didn't know her and saw her at school/club/bar/gym I would not go up and hit on her. I would auctually make fun of the friend that did for talkin to a chud.
So what do you guys think. I am 21 btw. Older guys, please chime in. Esp. if you stuck with the chick who got fat and now you are miserable.
I can not tell her that she has gotten to fat out of fear of crushing her self esteem. That would be a horrible thing to do to the girl i (once) loved.

Don't bother posting if its gonna sound something like 'you are shallow' etc etc. How could I ever be happy with the relationship if I am not happy with who she is? I would always be thinking about other chicks will i hump her.
So far, my method has been total avoidance. I had a big life changing event in my life happen and since then I have told her that I want to handle it(lifechanging event) by myself. Now I am avoiding her phone calls. I happened to see her at the pool, She caught me talking to a chick that was MUCH hotter than her. I freaked out and went and sat by my buddies, out of fear of her causin a scene. I then walked up to her and told her i needed time (stalled).
So naturally, after avoidin the problem as long as possible, I post on ATOT on how I should handle this problem. Maybe I should ask the UPS girl.(hahahha, btw, i have talked to other friends who say 'man my ups chick is so hot' turns out, she has a cult following.)
edit: maybe its more like 15-20 lbs. All I know is that it doesn't look well on her at all.
I am very thin and take much care to be that way.
edit: Keep in mind guys, that I can never have a HEALTHY SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP if I am not SEXUALLY ATTRACTED to her. so, you tell me whats worse, me admitting I would never be happy and always fantasizing about other chicks? Or stopping the problem before it begins and give her (and me) a chance to go out and find someone that is better for each of us.
edit: I would post after pics, but I do not think they are appropriate for this forum. I will get a pic of her at the pool to prove to you guys how painfully unattractive she is now.

How do I tell my Highschool sweet heart GF that she is gotten too fat for me to stick around.
Most of the weight was because she was on medication, but the diet is crap too. We eat out or have stuff delivered about 5 days out of the week. It never bothered me before though, because I rode my bike to stay in shape. I can't say that now.Originally posted by: aidanjm

Just an observation, not saying you are shallow, but you never loved her if you can leave her for this. So it might help if you realise that

If you're not attracted to her anymore, that's that. Dump her. It doesn't matter if you're shallow, or she's fat. That's irrelevant. You don't want her anymore, so get rid of her.
Ignore all the people in here who would rather "settle."
I knew it all along, I just had to have someone tell me. I can't beilive someone on ATOT told me though.
