Quick light hearted bannter
fellas, if you've been with your lady for sometime and you are best friends and happy in the relationship, would you mind if she let herself or her standards of presentationgo abit?
not talking major weight gain, just maybe didnt shave her legs as often, stopped wearing makeup, eyebrows weren't plucked as often, toe nails needed addressing, nails weren't manicured, clothesdidnt always look fashionable and fabulousetc
would you mind? and what would you do? would it effect your physical attraction towards her?

I am GUILTY of the crimes enlisted above and worse....To be honest I dont know why he sticks around; cause I am the absolute worse case scenario of what I use to look like whenwe started dating...I couldn't even date myself if I was the last person standing on earth (yep that bad)

very good topic wifeable
my view is that true love is about loving the spirit - good/bad looks give you an unreliablepointer of what the spirit is really like.

I come from a part of Africa whereslim is the onlybeauty standard. Having said this, a gain in weight slightly will not bother me and I will work with her to help her loose the weight through encouragement and exercise. I undesrtand women gain weight especially after birth or something like that; the weight gain can be lost through exercise, so no biggie there for me.
I will not however accept if she lets her self become sloppy as far as presentation goes. The way my wife looks and presents herself is important to me. There-fore she has to take care of essential things such as hair, nails, the leg shaving thing, and I will not acceptmis-matched dressing atire, for instance, Black dress, red shoes, white belt and yellow handbag.

No personal grooming/ Id think she's getting epressed..shave your damn legs gal..

No problem/ if she cant hold my interest with no make up then it cant work. After all, you got to wake up with her some time.. a womens true beauty can only be measured without make up../ cant take the jekle and hyde look..

Not watching fashion or name brand on a woman.. thats usually a womens pastime..just look presentable and like you iron your clothes in the morning..if she is attractive in my eyes then she can wear a well pressed and fitted crocus bag for what its worth....but if you start looking shabby then Id have to ask whats up..
would you mind? and what would you do? would it effect your physical attraction towards her?
|
Nope she has to hold her standards of presentation..might not affect my physical attraction/ but will affect my respect for her. Unless she is suffering from depression of some sort..

@Footprints. You obliviously have a problem with your self esteem. The question was asked to the guys and I replied giving my opinion. But I understand why you are mad because of what you wrote below. To me I believe it is important to keep up how a person looks. Just because two people are married does not mean I should let myself go. I am sure my future wife will not be too happy if I become a coach Potato,I grow a big beer belly, become shabby, don't shave my beard and moustache, my hair is a mess and needs a haircut badly and just don't take care of myself wearing the same pajamas most of the time and grabbing anything I can wear when going out. But hey, I will feel offended too if I were you, particularly the way you describe yourself. Ibite backfootprints, so be very careful of your stupidity and idiocyor you will get a handful you do not want.

Basically it would be hard to imagine my wife letting things slip to such an extent that it would affect my attraction to her, because she sets for herself certain standards that she doesn't let slip. Besides, I still find her every bit as attractive and desirable (even more so in fact) as I did some 15 years ago when she first came into m | | |
