Why divorce isn't out of the question 2 Months, 3 Weeks ago Karma: 7  
Well, first of all, I'm not a religious person, so I'm not bound by any belief system.

But second, and most importantly, it's my fat spouse. Besides the sexual turn-off, and that's a biggie, it's the person she's become because of all the excess weight. Think about the quality of life issues: we can't drive a small car (we have two cars - she drives the van and I drive the convertible that I hate and she wanted, simply because she doesn't fit in it anymore); she can't do much housework, so I have the "privilege" of doing it all; she has trouble holding down a job due to obesity-related illnesses, so I have to earn more and more just to support us (tying me to a job and location I don't like); she can't get life insurance unless we pay through the nose or I get it through my job; we can't do things together, even something as simple as grocery shopping, let alone something like walking through the woods or something, because she tires too quickly from being so heavy. She's suffering from numerous maladies that weren't there when we first got together, likely as a result of carrying an extra person around for so long. That makes for bigger doctor bills and missed time from work. Here's something simple, but it adds up - her clothes have to be bigger, which means more loads of laundry and increased expense, more drawer and closet space needed, the need to shop at specialty shops for clothes, etc. And she gets injured more easily due to the increased weight. Add all this up (and more that I haven't mentioned), and the quality of life goes way down.

I haven't decided finally to get a divorce, but I'm sure leaning that way. But it would be so simple to solve - just lose the weight!
