Her Husband Lost 100 Pounds And Now That He’s Attractive, She Feels Insecure Over All The Attention He’s Getting

Back when this 32-year-old woman started dating her 32-year-old husband, she was the more attractive one between the two of them.
They have been together for the last eight years, and they got married five years ago. Prior to their wedding, her husband weighed about 280 pounds (and he’s 5’11”).
He had no clue how to pick nice outfits for himself, and he had shaved his head. But she fell head over heels in love with him because of his personality.
“I fell in love with who he was as a person; even though I never cared for his looks, I was secretly assured that he wouldn’t cheat on me,” she explained.
That’s a sore subject for her, as all of her previous boyfriends ended up cheating on her. So, her husband felt like a safe option; if he wasn’t that attractive, what woman would try to take him away from her?
During their second year of marriage, her husband’s sister encountered some heart problems and had to drop an enormous amount of weight to improve her health.
Her husband wanted to support his sister, so he began going to the gym five days a week along with her. She thought it was a kind gesture, and she encouraged her husband to do this.
After two and a half years of dedication in the gym, her husband’s sister lost a lot of weight, but he did too.
Her husband dropped about 100 pounds, and now he has abs and a jawline. Not long after her husband’s glow-up, he got promoted at his job to the head of the department, and he was told he needed to up his clothing game.

She and her husband went shopping to come up with some new outfits for his role, and then her husband allowed his hair to grow out, and it’s pretty incredible his updated look. Her husband is absolutely handsome at this moment in his life.
A month ago, she attended a company party with her husband, and she couldn’t believe all of the attention he was getting from other women.
“I noticed that women at that party [were] just swooning over my husband and even worse, he just doesn’t realize it,” she explained.
“I learned from his coworker that most single women, even some of the married ones, are actively throwing themselves at him at his workplace. There was one younger girl who gave him a kiss on the cheek while WE WERE SITTING TOGETHER.”
She discussed this with her husband, who responded that this girl is French, so he simply assumed cheek kisses were part of her culture, though he promised to stay away from her.
She wasn’t pleased with how clueless her husband was about this girl, but that’s pretty on-brand for him.
She’s left feeling insecure over her husband’s newfound attention, and she wishes he never got fitter and more attractive.
“I don’t like how much attention he is getting,” she continued. “I feel like as soon as we get into a rough patch (if we get into it), there [are] a ton of women waiting to prey on him. I am scared that some of those women will affect him as he is pretty naive as a person.”
“Note that he was everything I could ask for in a marriage and has been a great, if not perfect, husband for me over the years. I feel like such a POS for wishing he stayed physically the same.”
