first thing first you need to talk to him. Confront him with what you found. Then go about getting help. But the communication needs to start with him not us. We can all give you advice but nothing will change until you talk to him. HE has a problem that is alot bigger than 10 stinking pounds. You need to learn to love you and work on you for you not him. I hope you find the help you need and find the inner beauty that will help you find that outer beauty as well.0

I disagree with a cheater always being a cheater. That is definitely NOT true! The cheater just has to not want to cheat, that's all.
In my first message I needed more details and got them. Unless I missed something in the 7+ pages..... Soo... this was a text and you were snooping on his cell phone and read them? If that's the case you need to check yourself and get your insecurities until control.0 -

Seriously? He's telling another woman that he doesn't find his wife attractive but does find the other woman attractive and it's the wife's fault for seeing the messages?0 -

Going from 185 to 196 probably won't be too noticeable. It's more than likely not something that he will go from finding you attractive to not finding you attractive.
The fact that you say this about yourself----"Sadly , on one end I cant blame him for not being attracted to me, I am not even attracted to myself. I HATEEE What I see in the mirror." is telling us that there are other major problems! So... since you gained 10 lbs do you go on every day saying how fat you are and how much you hate yourself? No one wants to hear that all the time. Maybe you've said it so much out loud that he's starting to believe it too.
When you said-- "Nice butt, slim waist.... everything im not.... the thing is, I was never like that though. So I guess I was fooled all along."............ 4 years? Do you really think a man would just hang around for 4 years to "fool" you? I'm not a guy so men you can disagree with that. It just seems like a long time for someone just to fool you. And what signs did you "think" you saw?
It's really hard to say or give advice. We don't really know all the details of your relationship. And we don't know what other previous relationships you were in and how they ended and how they affected you. What it does sound like to me is that you really need to work on loving yourself, no matter what weight you are. Sorry I couldn't just go with the majority here that it's all his fault, etc.
We know that NO men should ever say their spouse is unattractive and that someone else is?
How do we/she really know what exactly was said and for sure that's what he was talking about? We don't!!
No man should say their spouse is unattractive because it's not very nice. But I think if they need to work on something or they are letting something go you should tell the other person. I don't think lying to each other and saying everything is alright when it clearly isn't - is not the right thing to do. A couple should uplift each other and be the best version of themselves that they can be.
There are lots of attractive people out there. My SO can tell me if he finds someone else attractive. I don't have a problem with that at all. I see attractive people all the time and tell him. But I know that he loves me and I love him.

Ohhh and to the people saying he was/is a cheater? You have to define cheating. And we don't know if something physical has happened yet. Plus she said they were both virgins when they got married. I find that hard to believe in this day and age but maybe so.0

Yes, but I'd guess that the learning curve is exponentially steeper when you are dealing with total two total noobs. They're figuring out their own preferences as well as their partner's. And, seriously, given dude's willingness to be "disappointed" and having a borderline emotional affair only 5 months in to their sexual relationship? I'm guessing that he's not really dedicated to learning about HER wants and preferences. And, you know, generally speaking, the ladyjunk tends to be a little less self-explanatory for new operators, you know?[/quote]
AND maybe she's not dedicated to learning about HIS wants and preferences?

LOL. It isn't as easy as "the cheater just has to not want to cheat."
When you are married, what's yours usually becomes theirs too and vice versa. Don't make assumptions. You don't know whether OP was snooping through his cell phone or whether the text popped up and she was able to read it (iPhones do this).
I think you need to check yourself for thinking she's the problem.0 -
This likely has very little to do with your weight and has more to do with him just being a cheater. This probably would've happened even if u had never gained any weight at all. If he really loved you , he would've accepted you for who you are no matter if you gained or not . so he's likely just a cheater and your better off ending it now0

If this is how the marriage is starting with only five months in, then I wouldn't hold my breathe for it getting better. Heartache is absolutely one of the most painful things to experience and to know that he is having these conversations with another woman after only being married for five months would feel like death. However, the silver lining is that you don't have children (which I have a feeling he wouldn't take well to you being pregnant), and you can walk away now before wasting any more of your time. Walk away girly, maybe run!0

how many ya'll cheated in the past? #gauntlet #barbarianneedsfoodbadly
hahaha. Not me, sunshine. I caught my ex (at the time he was my fiance) cheating on me the night before a wedding we had both gone to. Thankfully it wasn't our wedding.
Anyway, after the wedding rehearsal festivities died down, a group of us were hanging out. I went to go to bed when the group started breaking up since I was exhausted and ended up passing out for a few hours. I woke up, realized he wasn't next to me and went to find him. We were at an outdoor wedding a bit in the boonies so I wanted from the camping tent we were sleeping in to the renovated barn (very redneck meets hipster) we had been hanging out in before.
As I approached the barn, I saw the lights on but the doors were shut. I looked through one of the slats in the barn door, ready to open the door when I realized that he was standing and she was *ahem* driving downtown to get some ice cream so-to-speak. I tried to open the door, found it was locked, and started beating on it.
She escaped out of a side door with her dog. No one was around except the three of us and, not thinking clearly, I took off after her to absolutely beat the snot out of her. She was much faster than I was so I never got to throw any punches; however, when my ex caught up to me, he started spewing apologies left and right. I remember taking off the ring, handing it to him, telling him to go eff himself, and then walking three feet and throwing all up.
Thankfully I saw what he was before I vowed to spend the rest of my life with him.
Why would you want to beat the crap out of her? She has no loyalty to you? Surely it's your ex you should have been punching?
Sorry, it just really annoys me when women fight the other woman rather than their cheating, scumbag partners. That's the person who has broken a promise to you.0 -

Classy is as classy gets.0 -
just let him roam and sow his oats so to speak, he will be back in about six months with some new skillzzzz0

Op, my sympathy is with you.0

I can't read all the comments so this may have already been said. A man will say anything to get a woman in bed and he's obviously cheating on you. You need to pack up and leave, and maybe get an annulment is you're still able.0

He sounds like a real winner. Dump his a** and go find a real man who loves you no matter what.0

Yeah this has nothing to do with you...and unfortunately there is nothing you can change about yourself that will fix the situation. He's clearly insecure and is looking for an outside source to stroke his ego. Now that he is married he is trying to make sure he is still attractive to other women. You probably have a narcissist on your hands...0
