Husband is ageing like fine wine, and some of the mum's at school have a whatsapp chat group to gossip about him. I'm not mad about it, but want credit for turning him into a 9. He was a 5, maybe a 6 at best when I married him 12 years ago.
@fesshole why does this read like the husband is a project and not a person?
@MxVerda @fesshole I came here to ask this very question. Husband may feel like he's in a Human League song.

@Eetschrijver @MxVerda @fesshole

I don't see the problem. Most women invest a lot of resources in making themselves attractive. In contrast, most men are clueless about what women want and many are barely aware of the need to stay attractive at all once they're married. Why shouldn't a wife let her husband know what she likes? Why shouldn't a man make an effort to make his wife look forward to seeing him? You can bet she does the same for him.

I hope this is sarcasm. ๐Ÿ˜‚
@atzanteol no, just defaultism / hegemonic uncreative acceptance of "the world isn't shitty enough to me personally so I don't have to care" @Eetschrijver @fesshole

@MxVerda

I really don't know what I said to deserve that. I still think men should make an effort to please their wives. I'm surprised that that's controversial.

You have no idea how shitty the world has been to me. I don't talk about it here.

@CppGuy
I'm genuinely sorry you had to go through such rotten things.
