Husband HATES my Silver Hair and HATES my weight gain ...

I need to expound a bit more from my most recent post. I'm 52 and I understand I'm "not 72" but 5 years ago I stopped dying my hair. It's beautiful, it's long, it's healthy but yes it's "SILVER" and he hates it. I honestly have ZERO desire to do anything to make someone else happy and I think everyone should empower that when it comes to their own body. Also, I used to be a beautiful, ultra skinny, model like beauty and guess what? NOT the case anymore. So I get ripped on because I've went from 120lbs to 200 lbs. I sure didn't get to that weight on purpose but at this point in my life I have way bigger fish to fry than trying to starve myself and exercise relentlessly to be "model pretty" again ... I guess truly loving someone for "who they are on the inside" is out the window ... Just some random rants. I do think it's time for divorce ...

Men are simple. They only ask two things of a woman. Be loyal. And don't be fat.

I assume he is not "model pretty" :)

Sorry he is acting like such a butt.
My only input is when he criticizes you push back hard and let him know that you will not stand for him saying things like that to you.

I did divorce my husband, but near the end things only started getting slightly better when I started "stomping hard" on his behavior towards me and stopped just being passive and taking it.


Best of luck!
