Husband doesn't like my body?

Why would you think that first of all? And if he is married and loves you and is faithful to you, he loves EVERYTHING about you. Small or big, short or tall. Would like more information to help if I can >.<

I'm thinking your feeling depressed because of your own insecurities. You want to be that beast again your going to have to work harder for it. Are you doing this for you or for him and if you say him, It's the wrong answer.

I disagree. I don't know you or your husband but I am guessing that you are the one that does not like your body. Change for yourself because you deserve that! All things are possible. Great things take hard work.

Why do you think that he likes other body types? Has he indicated this to you if not please don't go there. You need to learn to love yourself regardless of what others may think. Get rid of the negatives thoughts that you are having right now and keep telling yourself that you can do this. Don't let this defeat you. Tomorrow is a new day start it wth a positive attitude get back to doing yor calorie dairy if you have stopped. Look at what you are eating. Drink plenty of water and add some strenght trainng and cardio and you will see a change in your body. I am so happy for the little accomplishments.:flowerforyou:

I just assume that my boyfriend likes other body types besides mine. He's a man. That's natural. Sometimes when we watch TV together we'll ask each other if we think a certain actor/actress is attractive and I am often surprised by his responses - because some of the women look nothing like me. But they aren't sitting next to him, and they never will be. Just like Mark Wahlberg will never be sitting next to me. :ohwell:

Unless your husband comes right out and says, "Honey, I am not attracted to your body type," then try to understand that you may be overreacting to your own insecurities about your body. Talk to him about it, if you want, but not in the "Am I the only woman you ever look at?" kind of discussion. Don't make him lie. All men look. And so do we.

Yes. Yes we do.

I don't project annoying o. To him I have a little more self esteem than that....it's not my fault that these pictures of females that he likes keep appearing in my news feed...I'm doing it for myself don't let that fool you but it doesn't help that I'm not getting the emotional support that I need...smh it's hard to explain its one of those things where you would have to walk in my shoes to understand... Just need to know it there's a light at the end of the tunnel

You asked for advice on the internet, and several people said the same thing to you because most of us actually HAVE been in your shoes. But it sounds like you wanted validation.

These women's bodies come up on your news feed because those bodies are what's being photographed. Maxim and Playboy magazines aren't filled with pictures of women who look like general everyday women like moms, sisters, and coworkers. (I'm aware many moms, sisters, and coworkers are incredibly fit and sexy too, but my point is that these photos are for looking at and appreciating the female form.)

Most guys don't marry just because they like their potential wife's body. The overall package was likely impressive to him, meaning he is pleased with your body as well as everything else. But how YOU feel about yourself is what you're projecting. Confident women aren't threatened by photos on the internet. And that is why you received the replies that you did here. You need to get square with yourself. If you don't want to own that, that's up to you. All of the replies here basically just want you to feel good about yourself. Good luck.

As a married man I encourage you to not withdraw from your husband or withhold your body from him or from him seeing it. Guys are visually stimulated we want to see. If you don't let him see he may be tempted to look for it elsewhere. We also don't understand when our wives withdraw from us because of their own perceived flaws. We don't see those flaws. If your not happy with your weight than use that as motivation to change. Don't project your insecurities onto him, that's not fair to him.

omg!:laugh: I totally spaced out & clicked before I even formed my thought!!!!:ohwell: more coffee pleassssssse

My husband usually finds short, petite, elfin-like women attractive. If I had to pick a type it would be a dark haired dark eyed Oded Fehr type guy. We're both total opposites of our respective types, but here we are, married and happy and completely in love. You can find other people attractive without saying your spouse isn't what you want. You marry the one you love. It's not just the outside that counts.

oh so very much this.. my hubby will even sometimes suggest I watch some TVserie with him because he knows I will like an actor or two in it ...and those actors are often not even remotely similar to him in looks. I like to believe we chose each other for more than just looks :drinker:

people can like many types of bodies.. I'm sure he likes yours, he IS married to you

Here's what I was going to say...my husband comes in the room all the time as I'm getting dressed. It's hilarious because I run and lock the door quick like a bunny on *****cat feet & secretly giggle like an *kitten* when he stops dead almost smacking his nose on the door when he realizes it's locked :laugh: omg! and then the meek knock on the door asking to come in :flowerforyou: I'm terribly mean to him cause if I were a little girl on the playground, he'd put gum in my hair every time he saw me his words, not mine :smooched:

The truth is, I don't let him see allllll the time, but I do let him catch me even though I feel like a baby beluga & likely look like one too :blushing: I can't tell you how funny this is to me:laugh: The beauty of not icing him out every time is he never knows when it's coming :bigsmile:

You're a jealous person, and that will be the undoing of your marriage. If you're seething because he has female friends, then you're in for a long and painful journey through life. The majority of men you'll meet will have some lady friends within their social network. It doesn't mean he wants or fantasizes or thinks about these women. If you don't have any evidence of impropriety or infidelity, then you shouldn't waste brainpower on it.

I'm 5'4", equally proportioned between legs and torso, an athletic build, I have a big old donk, red wavy hair, and green eyes. All the other women my husband dated were at least 5'7", pancake *kitten*, legs all day . . . he loves me and he's attracted to me (all the shapes and sizes I've been), but he's also attracted to that body type.

My husband is 5'10", mostly torso (our legs are almost the same length), brown hair, green eyes. I am mostly attracted to men over 6' tall, and there is nothing in the world like a heinze 57 of exotic features on a banging body (although I'm less discerning about ethnicity). I love him and I'm attracted to him (all the shapes and sizes he's been).

We actually have more of an issue with gaining insecurities within ourselves, finding ourselves less attractive, and then the bedroom confidence decreases.

In my personal relationship, my fiancé isn't friends with other girls and he doesn't like other pictures of other girls. He knows that would piss me off and I would be broken. .

recipe for disaster!
Sure he hates looking at all women besides you. I'm sure he's never looked at porn either!
