Should your S.O./Spouse have a say so if they feel you are too thin or too large?

In my personal relationship, yes. I have a long history of eating disorder and if I hit a point where he really thinks I look too thin, then I'm probably having a relapse. Conversely, I never mind his gently suggesting we re-evaluate our diet and work out together -- if he thinks we need to, I've probably also noticed my jeans don't zip anymore0

Do you have this serious convo and at first wait for progression, or is it - the attraction is gone, I'm gone - worry about the kids later? I'm saying it in a joking way, but is attraction #1 over the family you have built? Do the vows even matter? I'm not being snarky, this is helping me understand how serious this subject is. Because I would never want to make my future husband feel the way some of you stated you would feel after weight gain.
Divorce should be an absolute last option, but addressing weight gain/loss is focusing on a symptom and neglecting the root cause. Concerning kids - choose your poison. I would argue that it is equally unhealthy existing in a loveless relationship, but then again if you are divorcing over aesthetics, this was never love, but lust.

A partner has every right to comment on weight gain/loss irrespective of whether its a health concern.
Don't know about the rest of you and although physical attractiveness is high up in the initial part of the relationship and cemented for the rest, it doesn't mean we have turned completely blind - I'd rather voice my concerns to my partner than ogle over other people to get my 2 seconds of lust.
Do you mean that you would still be attracted to someone even if they got fat?
Would I love them just as much? Ofcourse.
Will I find them attractive? Really difficult to answer at this moment because it's not an issue.
Will I tell them they are gaining weight and it is rather noticeable? definitely.
Will I give them a hard time? no way, thats horrible.
I agree. If I am truly in love with the person, I would exhaust all possibilities first.
But I do admire people that know what they like and want and do not want to settle. But at the same token I would want to feel secure in my relationship and not that any moment due to weight gain. I think it is very important to discuss this type of stuff when you are dating and before it move to the serious mark - because clearly people have different perspectives (and they are entitled to)... But before now, I never thought about it as a must have conversation.5 -

By not getting fat. I wouldn't worry about it myself because I'm not worried about gaining weight, it's something I know I can control, and I do control it.3 -

The lack of compassion and empathy in some individuals, totally focusing on whether their partner "gets fat" and what that would do to their attraction for that person, and whether they could still achieve physical gratification is just, well, words escape me. And that doesn't happen very often.
Relationships are complex. They are about more than sex.
Attraction is complex. It's about more than a physical appearance.
Health is complex. It is about more than weight.
Life is complex. Extenuating circumstances arise. Situations change. That people assume that nothing should ever come in the way of staying thin and attractive is... what's the word I'm looking for... appalling?

Someone actually non-sarcastically suggested that I do this. However I am equal parts idiot and realist: I am stupid enough to approach it with facts, but realistic enough to know that people interested in facts find them on their own, and those who go to weightloss seminars are people begging to be fleeced by good bullshitters with shady product lines.4 -

There is one reason why people become overweight or obese. That reason is always excessive caloric intake, and it is never something that happens to an adult (absent developmental issues like Downs or Prader-Willi) in a vacuum without the active participation of the person gaining the weight. Nobody gets fat against their own will.
I would like you to research Cushing's Disease, and also the effects of chronically elevated blood sugar levels before making such grossly ignorant comments. Also, as many metabolic disorders and medications upregulate home signaling, they make maintaining a normal caloric intake much more difficult. And depression and other mental health issues can mess with the will and energy to relate weight.
Very, very few people say "I think I should like to be fat, I'm going to make that happen."11 -

Well, not consciously anyway. The subconscious brain however, tends to think exactly that. Just about everyone in today's environment has to exert some form of restriction to keep it from happening. There's a good name for modern intuitive eaters: overweight/obese.7 -

This is something that YOU can control. You are still dismissing the issue that food addiction is real and most obese or 'fat' people struggle with and is difficult for them to manage or control. Addiction is real.

If you would be happy in a sexless relationship, that's your choice. I won't settle for what amounts to being financially entangled roommates with someone who I'm not attracted to. Your casual dismissal of the importance of sex in a relationship aside, surely you can understand that for many people the physical component of attraction cannot be removed.
I'm not attracted to fat people, and that doesn't, no matter what you say, make me a bad person.Therealobi1 wrote: »being fat is not the only reason someone might get left on the shelve

Being fat is indicative that someone's personality is not compatible with mine.

All of those things can be easily counteracted by responsible maintenance of caloric intake. With the exception of Prader-Willi or Down's, both of which come with diminished mental capacity which in and of itself would mean I couldn't be in a relationship with that person.STLBADGIRL wrote: »heiliskrimsli wrote: »STLBADGIRL wrote: »SpotLighttt wrote: »heiliskrimsli wrote: »SpotLighttt wrote: »a relationship is about honesty.

Probably yes. But most of really obese people do not think it is really such a big deal, or they would have done something about it before it got completely out of control. You gain the first 10 or 20 kilos, you see you need to keep shopping larger and larger sizes, you look at yourself in the mirror, you know where things are heading. If at this point you just do nothing, it is probably not that big of a deal for you. No one just wakes up one day double in size.

I've known my husband for almost 30 years. Over that time we've each been up and down the scale.
Navigating a successful long-term relationship requires a lot of skill and determination and focus on a big picture.
Some things are deal breakers to some people, they aren't to others, apparently.
In our relationship, we've dealt with financial bad times, the death of parents, the development of a major chronic illness and ensuing major depressive episode in its aftermath, a child with behavioral problems, and a child on the autism spectrum.
A successful relationship, we've come to find, has meant supporting each other through these things and communicating well to see ourselves through the bad times.
Neither of us have cared much what the other has looked like weight-wise, and I know, from past experience with a mother who fat-shamed me that people can't make other people change.
People can have their preferences, of course. My husband would have preferred that I had not had a personality shift when I developed a brain tumor, for example. It took a while for us to adjust. I would have preferred that my husband had not become moody when he had a terrible boss for a while at work. It took a while for us to adjust. My husband would have preferred that I not had a bout of major depression. It took us a while to adjust.
The thing is, we love each other and are committed to our marriage. Other people may view relationships and what their priorities are differently.
I can't wrap my head around love that's so conditional that something external could end it and sex that frankly, as the years pass, becomes less and less an important factor in a relationship.42 -

Calling overeating an "addiction" sounds offensive to real addicts, no matter how many times I read it. And I cannot see how it improves the situation. If one were to post "My husband has been drinking more and more, is now drinking all day long and refuses to het help" no one would post "oh, you must accept him as he is, do not say anything or you might hurt his feelings, and stay in this marriage for the kids sake"! If we are going to accept food is an addiction, then a spouse should give an ultimatum for professional help and run if the "addict" does not want to change things. Who would advise anyone to tolerate an addict who does not want help???6 -

You may not find sex to be a required part of a relationship. Other people do, and that doesn't make them wrong and you right.
I happen to be someone who requires sex (and frequently) as part of a relationship. If that need is not met, that relationship will not work. I'm not looking for a roommate.
You also may be someone who doesn't care what your partner weighs. I am. I'm not attracted to people who fall outside the normal weight range in general. That doesn't make me wrong or a bad person or less mature than you, either. I don't expect that my preferences would make someone else change - but they need to understand as well that I am not obligated to change what I'm attracted to to suit them and it doesn't make me a jerk that the body type I'm attracted to isn't the one they have. It would be the same if they weren't the gender that I'm attracted to.
You also seem to be assuming that this is age related and that those of us who eschew the idea of sexless relationships are simply young and will learn as we get older. That is most definitely not the case for me.4
