Say your significant other has gained weight

[GoldenAgeHero]

would you tell them that and somehow get them to lose weight or would you just let it slide. For instance if you spouse or whoever, was fit when you guys met but over the course of the relationship she/he gained weight and you began to feel a lil less attracted to her/him..sexually that is. you still love her/him, but you would want him or her to lose weight, how would you go about explaining that to them without hurting his/her feelings?

Your threads are always deeply unsettling.

I don't believe in the concept of a significant other.

how so?

If she gets pleasantly plump, cool.

If she gets obese.

Time to worry about that health.

 

[JLBats]

how so?

I don't know. I just always get the vibe that they're somehow related to you, even when they seem hypothetical.

It's like when a person goes "Um... so my... my FRIEND... was totally banging this ugly chick the other night." but you know that the "Friend" is really the person you're talking to.

If they got fat...I'm leaving.

You don't

what if they were bulking up for a role?

Then I'll come back after the box office returns are in.

If we're not married I'd warn her or leave her.
If we're married I'd just resent her.

If we're married I'd just resent her.

and then just cheat on her

Fatten up yourself and then be like, "how do you like it?!?! "

If she's getting fat just make her get on top and do all the work for a while. Also slap the biscuit out her hand.

Hmmm, I'm beginning to think I wouldn't want a relationship with any of you guys, LOL.

I'd guess that she'd already know it. We aren't idiots. I lost weight while in my last relationship (which isn't good, considering I'm already within 5 lbs of being runway-model-thin) and I didn't need my bf to tell me I looked unhealthy. I could see it for myself.

If you did point it out, just say that you're concerned about her health, and if there's anything you could do to help. Just nagging about it would make her feel worse, and from what I've seen, women eat when they're upset.

my wife's weight hasn't changed more than 3 pounds in either direction in the ten years i've known her, and she doesnt really work to hard at keeping it down, either. i think she's got one of those "locked in" metabolisms.

that was before she was married. Now you'd better watch out.

well i figured that much was obvious. its a gah thread.

 

[Wilhelm-Scream]

My friend got married recently, she looks like the Michelin man now.

 

[terry78]

Do people tend to let themselves go once they're in a relationship? As if to say, I've already snagged them, I can look like **** on a stick now. I could never do that, as non-shallow as they may be, if you end up looking grossly hideous, they may still stray.

Now that's love.
