If you married her just for her looks, I feel sorry for HER.

Reality bites. Visual appeal is a huge component of male sexuality. Also, men and women alike are more attracted to someone who takes care of their body. Doesn't mean they have to be an aerobics instructor, but someone who isn't respecting their body is neither respecting their relationship.

When someone disrespects their body they disprepect themself and in turn, weakens their sense of self which in turn weakens their ability to participate in the relationship fully.

Hell, my lady gets on the scale and sees that she's gained a few lbs and she's whiny and oversensitive all day long.

When a relationship begins, there is generally a physical attraction, otherwise she never would have turned your eyes in her direction, to begin with.

Keeping the physical attraction alive is important. Treating each other well, respecting each other's desires and fears, can help strengthen the emotional bond.

But, it is important that both partners treat each other like sexual human beings. If this doesn't happen, they will no longer see each other in such a way.

Use it, or lose it, so to speak.
