My dude immediately thought I would fail (because I had so many times before), but I was successful this time and he's no longer around to reap the benefits.
"There's someone here about the reaping..."
How YOU doin'?0 -
Suggested title..."Why does my man think if I want to lose weight....."
Not really fair to generalise all men. A bit sexist. Just saying. Anyway, best to talk to him I'd think.
I feel so generalized :sad:

That's what I'm thinking. But it's none of my business.
They make excuses for them.I don't how people date and marry others with such insecurities. It would take so much of my energy just to pretend to care about such nonsense.
Also...Just break up! :laugh:
An old friend of mine started dating some chick who would grill him every time another woman posted anything on his Facebook page. He took the page down to avoid the drama.
They got engaged two months ago ...
that won't end well
Agreed. An engagement that begins with an ultimatum...seems legit. :noway:0 -
Well, I don't think it began with an ultimatum. I don't talk to him anymore, really, but I'm friends on FB with his best friend, so I see stuff.

He deleted the account more than a year ago. I don't think she told him to. He just got sick of the drama it caused. But when you can't handle your SO having Internet friends who are the opposite gender (I knew him in high school -- he ALWAYS had a group of female friends), there are issues. And I don't think they magically clear up.
He insisted it was because she had been cheated on in her past and treated badly by some guy. Yeah ... join the club, sister.0 -
Because they read stupid articles on the interwebz which never lies.

Not every guy AT ALL thinks this. Mine has not a jealous bone in his bod, or thinks no one out there would dare hit on me. :laugh: He is all for me getting hot... for HIM.0

Men. Sigh.
Women often think like this, too, though.
Humans. Sigh.
Say, "Honey, I love you soooooooooooo much and you make me soooooooooooooo happy that I want to live forever just so I can be with you always."
Women dating and not married: Don't say this unless you want to see whether your honey can break speed records fleeing from you. (Although that can be amusing, if you're trying to get rid of someone and you're a tad passive aggressive.) :devil:0 -
why do u guys think if ur woman wants to lose weight and start going to the gym again ur mind goes straight to cheating? not only was my husbands mind thinking that but his friends think that too? cant i do something for myself? i am looking forward to wearing a bathing suit in public and not hide under a t shirt... sorry a little vent
^^ guilty much?0 -
I find it interesting that so many people are jumping all over the "insecure husband" and his friends that the OP has presented for scrutiny in her post. Have any of you considered the possibility that the OP has behaviors that warrant his concern for their marriage? Behaviors so obvious even his friends are leery of her intentions.
Either way, as many others have pointed out, she should talk to him directly and find out why he feels this way. And for the record, it is more than common for a disinterested spouse who's plotting a divorce to gain a sudden desire for "self-improvement" (AKA, polish up to move onto bigger and better). Anyone who denies this happens is a fool.0 -

You two need to have a serious talk about what is going on and how it affects each other. I would also recomend going to a counsler about this.
As for his coworkers making the comment that you are now hot. They need to stop feeding into his insecurity. They might be doing this to cause problems for their own entertainment. I've had coworkers do stuff like this before just because they could.0 -
I remember how MAAAD my ex would get when I would ask her where she was .
Of course you know the rule. . Don't ever ask a question you don't already know the answer to (The GPS don't lie).0 -
Sounds more like a personal issue with you and your husband.
My wife ballroom dances without me. She takes classes and competes (amateur) and has a dancing partner. I have no issues, jealousy, or suspect anything is going on but dancing.

I must tell my DH how wonderful he is when he gets home. This would drive me crazy!
Here's some more fuel for the fire. I have always worked out/had a sport of some sort. My EX husband used to make comments about me cheating etc.. 'cause he was a weinie.
As it turns out, HE was the one running around like his pants were afire. Thankfully, it was a short marriage. He has been married for quite a while to one of his many hoochies from our marriage days and still runs around like his pants are afire.
Do what you do, and keep your eyes peeled, kiddo. Insecurity has it's basis in SOMETHING.0 -
I don't think I would think anything like that. My wife goes to the gym with me. You might need to work that out with the spouse. Tell him to tell his friends to stay out of it. They might be why it's in his head.0

Wow.

My ex-fiancé was very insecure and loved the fact I had gained lots of weight and let myself go! He didn't want me to be attractive, that would encourage other men to look at me! He was very possessive and controlling, all because he was afraid of losing me.
I'm happily single now, though I wish I had a significant other who was interested in a healthy lifestyle change that includes going to the gym.0 -
Yeah, just because one guy thinks this, does not mean all men are like that of course. My husband would never think that. Even when men are paying attention to me he just jokes with me about it. He has feelings about it, but he also understands why men are paying attention to me, and he knows it probably must feel good to me to get compliments. So, he jokes about it and we have a good laugh.0

Not all men are insecure little douchecanoes. Don't lump them all in the same boat.
I know plenty of very supportive encouraging men.0 -
My ex was like this. This is why he is an ex. My current loves me and trusts me. Don't paint all men with such a broad brush.0

invite him to the gym and encourage him to be.... "hot" topless0
