100% works both ways.

It amazes me that people are so naive they think that "love" is enough.
Getting out of shape and not fixing it is very disrespectful to your partner.
It's as bad as cheating imo.

I suppose it's also the mans fault when it happens the other way around?

as the meme says "you can't turn a whore into a housewife, you can, but don't be surprised when she does whorish things"
or the more succinct "you can't turn a hoe into a housewife"

those that try to covert somebody are just making a rod for their own backs.
didn't marry ,but fcuking hell I made that mistake in my youth of dating one or twoof that type . a disaster.

I can get entirely what you are saying here but at times there is an inkling of truth to this phrase. It is generally stated in an @rsey quite overly rosey way but there is something there.

I think as you mature you do actually learn to appreciate this ethos.

My friend was dating a girl in college. She was utterly stunning, model good looks but she wasn't that attractive. He said it when he broke up her and we all agreed with him. She was really really dull. No character to her at all. Nice, but just reserved to nearly Fr. Stone levels.

Yeah I have known a few woman like that. I have woman say it about some guys as well...spent more time looking in the mirror and just dull.

The better looking the women the less effort she makes.

Funnily enough and slightly off topic. I have heard it more than once from women who have dated sports/football stars. GAA and rugby especially. Boring as fcuk. I mean, take away their sport and they have absolutely nothing of interest to say. I get that it is 100%.

That reminds me actually I dated a lady from Tyrone years ago and one of her exes played for Tyrone. Lovely guy she said but he was the most boring fecker in history. Training or sleeping. TBF she was a headcase so he dodged a bullet there.

Unpopular opinion: If we just castrate ourselves we can rid the world of manspreading.

I voiced an opinion which I thought was the purpose of the thread. if you have an issue with my post then report it.

I find so much about modern society to be soul destroying.

People simply won't allow you to live your life on your own terms.

People seem to be more obsessed about fitting in then actually doing the things that make them happy.

People seem to be less informed, less sociable and less happy than they ever were despite everything.

Thing is with a lot of, not all, women who do date sports people regardless of the sport are doing it for all that comes along. I'm convinced that's why so many marriages involving sports people end. Take GAA just for an example someone is with a player with one of the top teams Dublin. Kerry, Kilkenny etc While the partner is on the panel and the team are doing well it's happy days. Free tickets to games, free holiday if the do well, trips to the All Stars etc But when they retire and that all ends well things change.

and they are quite prepared to turn a blind eye and a deaf ear to the rampant rumours of indiscretion by said players.

It's hard for to judge from the outside. I think a lot of these sports stars suffer tremendously when it all ends, given that their entire life has been sacrificed up to this point for something that they can no longer physically do. I imagine that puts a strain on a lot of relationships.

An upgrade on 2005 Roy Keane? Maybe.
