If you see an attractive successful guy with a fat out of shape wife, what do you think... guy is around 40 and they have kids?

I would think the guy is some selfish narcissist who spends his days outside of the house after trapping his once-pretty wife at home with a pile of kids and chores... I would think that he doesn't give a single thought to letting her get away from her chores for an hour or two daily to take care of herself while he stays perfectly trim, blah blah... and I would think he's priming himself to ultimately cheat on his wife with some little chippy because he will claim that his wife is no longer pretty and thin as she once was, of course not taking ANY agency for the fact that she only looks this way now because of him...

Wow. Completely different perspective than us guys so far. You know the wife is an adult and she can put effort into her health

@BarryLiverstone Squeeze a pile of kids out of yourself and see how much time you have, ok? Let me know how that works out for you.

[BarryLiverstone]

I physically can’t do that. God didn’t give me the ability to make kids from my body. I do plan to support my wife when she does “squeeze” out kids tho

[DishLady]

@BarryLiverstone Ok, then. But know that many guys don't. (Just bc you're a good sort of guy doesn't mean all guys are.)

[BarryLiverstone]

I fully agree there are bad guys and girls out there. Life gives us back what we put into it

[DishLady]

@BarryLiverstone Amen.

I wouldn't think anything about that. If you've ever watched the show 600lb life they all got partners (usually in shape partners) so some couples it's just a opposites attract thing

I'd think maybe the wife was attractive at the beginning and then let herself go over the years.. most married couples with kids are like that..

I don't think anything. It is not my business to make insecure, petty assumptions.

[Asker]

what if it was your business? what would you think?

[BarryLiverstone]

Don’t think much about it, they are strangers

[Asker]

what if they aren't strangers. what if it's a colleague at your work. and you meet his wife for this first time. what do you think?

[BarryLiverstone]

I’d wonder why did she let herself go like that
