Need some words of advice from my NT fam...

Man, it ultimately depends on on your preferences.  As the child of a Panamanian woman, I can say that while they're loyal, they can be headstrong at times.  You did know what you were getting into by getting into a relationship with her, though...  Or at least I hope you did, anyway.

simple answer OP

women being out of shape is a MENTAL issue and not a PHYSICAL issue IMO...

if she worked out, and still looked the same I bet you would be cool with it (right?)

but since she won't even make the EFFORT to stay in shape, that's what is making you angry (right?)

explain that to her, and if she still refuses to meet you half way.... CUT HER LOOSE... if she can't understand your feelings and be willing to work on them, she ain't wifey material

/thread and "come at me bro" to whoever disagrees

Just like you said your love is conditional, right? Well I asked her, "if I just gave up and got fat and wasn't making moves to better our situation, would you stay with me?" Her honest answer, "no." Then I said "ok, I'm not gonna be married to a fat, out of shape woman. So address the issue or I will." She's in the gym 3-4 times a week now and got a personal trainer.

You gotta be cold about it and if she doesn't change, you gotta move on. We live in a time where the options are damn near limitless. Women and men need to understand this and if they want to keep the one they have, they need be constantly working to do so.

Being cut up into your 60s isn't unrealistic either.

I really would like to hear from WisePharoh, BlackMagnus, MytMouse, and the others I chop up game with.
Same here word for word. I would never tell any girl that she is getting bigger or whatever, she has to figure that out herself (my girl recently lost 20 pounds. She looked good anyway but is back to her original weight of when
I first met her

). If you do think she is truly lazy and won't change, then you probably have to cut your losses and move on. That's not being shallow or anything either, you just shouldn't have to feel like you're stuck
and settling, especially when you are putting your own work in.

Youre probably single.

If that's you in your avy, you probably are too.

But I guess it's not your picture, since you're The Hater Boxden.

You're probably still single though, cause no one with a girlfriend would write to themselves on the internet.

Is she getting fat or you afraid of her fat potential? How big is her mom?

If she isnt fat, or getting fat, I dont see the problem with not working out.

If it bothers you now it will always bother you. Move on or cheat on her. Keep her to raise your kids and look forward to a slimmer girl next door. That's my advice.

Remember, no matter how hot a girl is, someone, right now, is sick of her BS. Word.
