Time, stress, marriage, and children all take a toll on our looks and emotions. There are those few exceptions when we see someone who looks better after aging than before. However, in reality it is just usually that they have taken better care of themselves or have more time and money to spend on themselves than the rest of us.
With time, we often see weight gain, hair loss, hair color changes, wrinkles, flab, loss of figure, and more.
After marriage, we often worry less about our appearances and become comfortable around our spouse. Fixing up for him/her is not as big of a concern as it was when we were dating.
After children, we usually have less time to worrying with getting ourselves ready. After changing our spit-up shirt three times, getting two children ready for school, and making sure everyone has breakfast, little time is left for ourselves.
While looks are not what we love about our spouses, they are probably what attracted us to them in the first place.
When these looks begin to fade or go unattended, is it okay to let your spouse know that perhaps a little more physical attention is needed?
I think that it is appropriate to help our spouses look and feel their best. While it would probably not be a good idea to come out and tell your spouse that he/she is fat, there are some things that you can do to help. Begin healthier eating habits and offer to exercise together.
If not getting fixed up is the trouble, maybe your spouse is just waiting for a reason. Take him/her out on the town or buy him/her a new outfit. Give a gift certificate to a salon. Mention to your spouse how much you enjoy seeing him/her in sexy attire.
