During dating most people are very attentive to their manners, appearance, body odors, language, etc.
Then they get married. Both start to slip a bit. Soon, the man shaves only once per week, changes underwear once per month, and gets stinking drunk almost every night, spends all his days in front of the TV.
The woman spends all day in her housecoat, usually naked beneath, always has her hair in curlers, smokes like a factory, and uses language that would embarrass a construction worker.
How long does it take before the couple gets this far?
What you're describing has never happened to me or my husband. I was married 20 years ago and was 5'9, 130 pounds then. He was 5'10, 155 pounds. Both of us are within 3-4 pounds of that weight two decades later.
The people you are describing that "let themselves go" are pigs and sloths, nothing more to say about it. There is NO excuse to get fat, ugly, dress badly or not bathe after you marry. I exercise 12 hours a week, every week of the year, barring illness or injury. Same with my husband.
Life's too short to be fat, miserably married and look like crap.
Yeah, I agree. People who let themselves go are losers. I constantly hear men whine on the 'net, "I can't get my wife to have sex with me!" And when pressed, they admit they are 5'9 and 260 pounds but they live in some ridiculous haze where they claim they're "buff."

What do you mean at what point do you get that way? How do you think I got my husband? I was standing there in a housecoat, curlers in my hair, choking on a cigarette, swearing like a sailor - and he just fell head over heels in love with me. He was drunk, dirty, stinky, and lazy - my knight in shining armor!
Honestly - what kind of married people do you know???

We're more than a decade into it and it hasn't happened yet. Fortunately, my dh likes to shower and where clean shorts. Although, they typically have holes in them. eta: maybe when folk get dementia old?
