My husband thinks he deserves a hotter wife after he got promoted
a) What should she do?My husband and I started dating when he was in his third year of medical school. We were deeply in love and got engaged six months later. When my husband was in his residency and was working crazy hours, I supported him fully, made sure he had a warm meal to come to, let him release his frustration with patients and coworkers.
Things have paid of for him, he is now part of an elite team of professionals and we get invites to parties all the time. In them, there are a lot of high powered individuals, not just people in his career, we have had professional football players, elected officials you name it.
The one thing I have noticed is that a lot of these men have girlfriends far younger than them or wives. And from what my husband said, even the ones that have married for years, will have a girlfriend on the side. My husband assured me that he was above that, that he loves me and has no plans on cheating or leaving me.
However, over time his critical gaze has shifted to me. When we are eating dinner, he will make comments about me eating enough. He will suggest that I go to the gym. And I honestly think that a lot of his career has started going to his head. He has become a lot more arrogant, when we were looking to buy a new home, I went to talk to my father about advice. And my husband dismissed it as what would he know? he lived in a small house.
Other things too, we will be out and he would make a comment on how attractive a woman is. He will throw comments about how a very attractive nurse tried to hit on him at work. All of this really makes me feel uncomfortable about our marriage that it is not as secure as I once thought.
When we got married he told me that when he gets his first pay check that we would try for a baby, but that has been pushed back. And my fears are that he is working towards replacing me. He will make comments about how its biology that a man spreads his seed.
I have hit the gym more and followed through with his suggestions but its starting to take a toll on me, this is not who I am. And in reality there is only so much I can do, I am not the tight, hot, twenty year old sorority girl that guys dream of. I don't know what to do? Am I just an ancient relic that needs to go?
Please help me out
