Extra
Pounds Make him Sexually
Unattractive to Me.
How do I get him to Lose Weight? |
|
Dear Dr. Mark:
I have been married for 7 1/2 years. When I first meet my
husband he was in good physical shape and sexually
appealing. He is 6'4. After we married he started to gain
weight. He went from 230 to 255. He is 29 and I am 32.

What do you do when your spouse's
weight causes you to lose interest in him or her sexually? |

I have been blessed with a great metabolism, so working out has not
been a priority; I am 5'1 105 lbs. I recently started working out
for the health benefits and to stay in shape. I have tried to
encourage my husband to do the same but he shows no desire to do
this and our sex life has suffered for the past 6 years because of
my lack of desire for his body. I have been 'gently' honest with him
but I know that people do not loose weight until they are ready. I
am starting to get very angry at the situation because I don't think
that a man in his 20's should look like an overweight man. He
carries it all in his stomach, even though he is tall, he has a
large belly.
I have tried not to be selfish but I am
completely turned off. I have been dealing with this for over 6
years and for the past 2 years we have been having financial
problems due to him starting his own business and I have recently
taken a job that has required me to be away from home all week.

All of these situations have built up and
I feel so upset, disgusted and angry with him. I think
intimacy is what our marriage needs but how can I get him to
be sexually attractive without hurting his feelings? I'm
tired of waiting for him to do it himself but my marriage is
slipping away. I can deal with the poor finances, etc. but I
really need him to be sexually attractive for me. I think
people use marriage as an excuse to be lazy about their
appearances. People should try to stay sexy and attractive
all of their lives for the health benefits alone. His eating
and body habits are pushing me farther away. Any advice on
how to get someone motivated without damaging their
feelings?
