Exactly. Seeing HOT looking women as they age into their 40's, 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's, 100's is uncommon. This goes for men as well. Gravity makes things go south, wrinkles appear & the numbers on the weight scale goes up

Neither. I would say the people that make such comments about your wife are superficial and childish.

Why are you friends with people who speak like that about anyone you love? So rude.

Looks aren't the most important thing. I have liked/dated less attractive guys in my past people wondered why. Why? Because they were sweet, respectful guys who made me feel good about myself. That's pretty much all you need in a partner.

Shallow friends they are but also curious what age group your in? This sounds like high school mentality.Your already married and these people still harping? I'd be giving yourself time away from them as their not interested in how you feel their interested in what they think. Cant believe you needed our help figuring this out. If you want show them this thread but if your wife finds out you may have bigger trouble than with these losers.

You are not weird or stupid. You love her for HER not for her looks or whatever. Some people are superficial --- just remember: Beauty fades, dumb is forever.

Your wife sounds like a great woman. I'm glad you have her. Don't let other people put you or her down!

Why would you worry about anything beyond the fact that you are attracted to her?

Perhaps your attraction to her is rooted in factors which are far more complex, and enduring, than that of superficial physical appearance.

I've always found that my sexual attraction to a woman increases as I begin to recognize her intelligence, warmth, and friendship--in short, the overall picture of her as a human being.

You apparently are lucky enough to have in your life a woman whom you love, and to whom you're sexually attracted. Cherish that.....and get some new friends!

Do your friends still say this now that you are married? I'm with the others, time for new friends as it is clear you are happy with her, since you married her and all.

If you want to be happy for the rest of your life, never make a pretty woman your wife......

Then why are you in a relationship with a woman married to someone else, one with whom you text all day and claim to have "feelings" for?

You're a smart man. What is inside a person is far more important than what is on the outside. Everyone's looks fade, but the beauty of a good person never does.

wow, some friends you have. I find their opinions and attitudes really strange. Do you live in a frat house or something?
