Svelte, if a man truly loves you, he won't care about how you look, you should make the effort for yourself, nobody else. If you like the way you look, you'll feel more confident, giving off positive vibes to hubby and everyone else.

Speaking from my own experience, I find marriage is about compromise, before I met hubby I was selfish and very blinkered in what I wanted, when Mr Snessy came along, I "wanted" to share in everything and willing to compromise with him. I believe you have to work at a marriage to make it work, but only of you want to :-)
