Lill, for me it is for the close emotional connection more than anything else I think. FWIW, Mrs GGB was a too skinny 125 lbs when I met her. I'd love for her to get back to about 150-160 lbs, but I don't love her any less at her current weight. Yes, it is less appealing, but on the other hand, there is much more to her than the physical shell. We've been together for 20 years, 18 of them married.
