You are right. The comments from many are downright cruel. I suppose many of them would have said the same of my late hubs and me. He was a handsome guy and I am (well to put it kindly, I do clean up nicely.) not going to turn heads. But he was not gay. I was not a beard. He did really love me. Some men and women are not lasered in on current standards of beauty.
Nobody cared until she made a big deal out of it.
She deserves to be treated mean for seeking attention and providing no evidence for her claims.
YUP; married my wife when she was young, fit, and very active.
2 kids later, then arthritis, then a more sedentary job, then the years piled up, and to put it bluntly my wife is now what folks call fat.
When we are out and about (I always make her take my left arm) I have heard comments like “how did something like that get a guy like him”.
And Worse!
I guess I am not to bad looking and still very fit for my age but I never considered myself all that.
I still get hit on by younger women when I’m out alone, but just figure those women need a better eyeglass prescription or are just getting desperate in their old age of 35 to 45.
I have always told my wife I didn’t marry her because of what she looked like but because of WHO SHE IS.
My wife is the most beautiful, intelligent, vivacious woman I have ever known or will ever know, don’t want anything else - don’t need anything else!
47 years now and looking forward to the next 47.
Sounds like your Husband was an outstanding man who (just like me) managed to sneak in there and grab the most BEAUTIFUL,INTELLIGENT, CAREING WOMAN in the world!
Sorry for your loss, my greatest fear is being left behind by my beautiful wife (her health has not been good the last few years) and I am pretty sure that there is no one else out there who could even come close to her beauty, grace, and intellect.
It will be lonely out there but we just deal with the hand we are delt and go on until we are also called.
SEMPER FI, BEAUTIFUL LADY
