Weight gain in relationships

I’ve never had a relationship but I’ve witnessed it in many of my friends and people I know! I called it the happy fat spread :laughing:

Usually when someone is pregnant I notice the man gets a dad belly! Possibly cause he’s eating for two the same as the mumma or cause he’s become tuned into his partners hormones and gains a happy belly with them.

But also when couples get happy and relaxed into a relationship they sometimes put weight on like they feel comfortable and secure so they let go of trying to keep efforts to stay in shape as they don’t need to worry about finding someone :thinking:

Quite funny and interesting to observe it happen from a third person perspective lol

This is just my thought. Yes people do get more comfortable when they are together but my own thought is I want my wife to look at my body and want it just as much as she did when we first got together and went off just physical attraction, we have had a convo about what if I stopped the gym and put a load of weight on and she said she would never stop wanting me which is great but for my own mind I want to be in shape.
