| I've been dating my partner for the past two years and now we're engaged. Since we've got engaged, I've been trying to eat right and exercise so I'll look good for the wedding (still a year off). My partner started to gain weight slowly when we were dating but since we got engaged, he's gaining weight very quickly. Because of work, we are temporarily living in different cities. When I went home at Christmas, I was shocked at how much weight he had put on in the previous two months (probably about 10 pounds). We talk on the phone often and he keeps telling me how he orders pizza and eats junk food all the time. He used to go to the gym a few times a week, but he recently told me that he's decided to give up his gym membership. If this keeps up, by the time of the wedding, my partner is going to be 50 pounds heavier than when we got engaged! He jokes about getting "chunky" and acts like it's a joke. I don't want to hurt his feelings, but I'm not finding him very sexy anymore |

| Then shouldn't you share your feeling with him? Geez, if your considering to be a wife.......................the engaement is a time to practice on being married. He needs to know how you feel. You won't hurt his feelings if it's the truth.Tell him you care about his health. Maybe he's doing it on purpose to have you high tail it and run??? OR he could be happy and feel he doesn't have to try so hard any more sense he has you as a future wife |
