Is this the typical situation for a young American husband?

[MatureDJ]

I was reading this article - which is good in its own right, but not of any interest in this forum - but what struck me was the picture of the young couple: a fit husband (who has a good job too) and an obese wife (belly-obese, not the more feminine large-teats and/or ass-thigh type of obese.)

I mean what's the point? It's one thing to be old and have a fat wife, but at this early a stage of life?

Sounds like two yupsters. I have no explanation for other people's lives, everyone is a sheep following the a$$hole in front of him.

Dear MDJ,
Your post is relevent,basically I agree with Live free ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^...As a Builder and Developer for fifty years,a lecture in that profession for 23 Years,I would just say if you buy a second Hand Car,can you really expect the same standard of reliability that the original purchaser had?...Advanced Age is forcing a consolidation of my Real Estate Empire LOL,one of the things that I have noticed is how useless the new profession of Building Surveyor is...They guard every statement behind legalise that lets them off the hook if anything goes wrong!~...Wanna good Appraisal?...Get a Wizened,horny handed old bludger like me to cast his Eaglelike over you proposed purchase, he wont have a hatful of degrees,but he has something that years at University cannot Buy,Experience!

Maybe its the effect of birth? Pregnancy?

You never their past........... and when you are in a relationship.... beauty fade REALLY FAST. The prettiest girl could be the nastiest one or the most boring to the point you don't want to touch her anymore.

It's called Love, get you through appearance and look how she smiles.

Don't judge others, focus on you. However I agree.... we all want look + brain + personality

I bet the wife in the article uses her kid as an excuse for being fat and lazy. Problem is, how long ago was her pregnancy? The kid is like a few years old. Come the f*ck on. And what I don't get, is even if you don't care about your own health for some stupid ass reason... wouldn't you want to at least set a good example for your kid?

I immediately thought she looked as if she is currently pregnant. Some stages of pregnancy are not so clearly discernible from obesity. The article mentions they are a "growing family." I took that as confirmation she is indeed pregnant.

God, I hope not. Cute women keep their metabolism up. Men should, too. I'd rather be single than be married to a woman who wasn't cute.

Maybe she is good woman ,what is the chances of getting a beautiful good wife these days , not too many men want to play luck game to win both

Simple. He has a poor self-esteem. Feminism wants men to be insecure.

I know a guy that's a personal trainer, does cross fit, good physique, people love him. He had two kids with his teenage sweetheart but now she's so overweight she makes that girl in the article look good.
This dude could easily pull 8+ in metro areas.

Also, she prob gained a lot of weight after she had her kid. She would look fine minus the weight.

Her kid is like 2 years old... so unless she's preggers again, she's just lazy.

Perhaps "house" is a metaphor for "wife" in this article.

Physical attraction is but one criteria. Who knows how long they've been together. The article mentioned she has some kind of professional sounding job, who knows.

@LiveFreeX "everyone is a sheep following the a$$hole in front of him."
^Truth, pure truth.

And as for the wife and man... He has a child with her, and that changes things entirely. She may not have always been overweight, she may have gained that weight after having a child or marrying him. I have seen it before. An associate of mine who is the same age as me, he is an HVAC repair guy, he has a child and marries a girl two years back. She was very cute, not super skinny but not at all fat, had nice tits.
Just two years later and I am not kidding when I say she looks like she has gained 40lbs... I thought she was pregnant again the last time I saw her, but no... She just gained that much over that short of a time.
