Communication largely keeps resentments from setting in, which in turn makes it easier to maintain a sense of playfulness from time to time. This quality keeps both partners looking pretty good to each other, and helps foster genuine admiration, appreciation and respect. Lastly, the fact that he's aging too helps the equation. Having a dear companionship that endures throughout a lifetime is one of the most beautiful things in this world.

Well, usually the man is aging at the same rate. As years go by in a relationship, a deeper emotional connection replaces and more than compensates for a reduced physical attraction, although sometimes that physical attraction can still be very strong after many years. I've been married to the same woman for over 40 years. She's still beautiful, not just in my eyes, but in reality and I am still very physicallay attracted to her.

I think you should be honest with her. You should let her know you still love her, but often fantasize about what she was like when you first met. Make her remember the good times, describe it to her in detail, tell her how she made you feel and express your wish to feel that again (with her!). You also may want to help her in an 'elegant' way. Convince her that your family needs to eat more healthy food, ask her to join you to the gym or a tennis class, buy her sexy outfits - they'll make her want to look good enough to wear them. And don't forget the most important part - your brains. It's not all about the sexy body, you know. Desire begins in the mind. So does romance. I'm sure you're both stressed, perhaps overwhelmed with daily routine and worries. You should find a way to escape that and find yourselves again. Be patient. Marriage takes work and time. Just start taking small steps towards a better marriage. You both have to work on it. Cheating is not a good option, it will make you both miserable in the end.

The most important thing is open communication, understanding ones feeling, being considerate, giving your man alittle space to do what he want to do without interference unless he ask you to. avoid petty petty interuption which most men finds it annoying although they pretend that everything is fine shen its not. Dress casual and neatly with your hair you know....... looks perfect. Avoid confrontations and perform you home responsibilities as required. This are the main basic that men founds their wives attractive all times. Mens to prefer to get recommendation from other men how beautiful their wives are.

Love, if its real, than looks will not matter. When your in the early stages of love, which is based on infatuation, than of course its all about looks. However, after a while, a new set of hormones come in to play which make lovers feel satisfied and comfortable.

Keeping the spark alive means work. Talking to each other, finding new ways to enjoy company. Doing a lot of things together as a "team".

Love is the key player, and my wife constantly
keeps herself in shape by excersising, is another,
and married for over 20yrs , I would not trade her
in for another for nothing in the world because her
values about herself are un-replaceable.

Cellulite is a turn on. If he whistles the old Jello commercial Jingle before bed...he's happy. Slip Viagra in his coffee. (he's aging too) Take a trip together. Smoke pot naked. Grab his winky.

TRUE LOVE !
You don't really want to know what the guys think. I can just see some of the answers you will get.
If he truly loves YOU he will forever be attracted to you, not some appearance!
