If some people confide about their personal problems to their friends or close family, others ask questions to experts on the internet. And this was the case of a man, who asked a question to an expert on the site of
Mirror.
In a relationship with a woman for 10 years, the Internet user has seen changes come to ruin his life: she “doesn’t take care of his body while exercising. We used to go to classes together, but now that we have a child, we can’t do that anymore. I tried to motivate her to take care of herself, especially since she tends to be sick, but I gave up”.
An Internet user confides in his wife’s physical changes
If he tries to cope with the appearance of his partner, the Internet user cannot reason with himself: “his double chin always hurts. I find myself checking multiple times a day to see how bad it is and sometimes I have to stop myself from looking at her. It only gets worse as she gets older.”
And he confides having “bought a few of those cheap little exercise toys, but she refuses to use them. I even told her they were for me and she made a comment about how she knew they were for her. And yet she still refuses to do anything about it”. The man seems distraught: “Is there anything I can do to not hurt her before it’s too late?”
The expert of the exasperated section
And now the expert let her anger burst forth:
“Too late for what? If she doesn’t take care of her double chin, will you leave her? Well, maybe that’s the best thing to do, because I think she deserves a partner who is more supportive and treats her with more empathy and kindness,” she says, very, very angry.
“I know it’s hard if you stop finding your partner attractive, but you seem to blame her and take it personally instead of recognizing where she is in her life and that she had a baby, so her body has been through a lot and she puts all her energy into being a good mother.” The expert thus tries to shake up the Internet user:
“I’ll be honest, I’m having a hard time being understanding here, but if you love her, you need to start looking at the bigger picture and stop worrying about her chin.”
