Okay, so...this I don't think this is going to paint me in a good light but I'll do my best.
I've been married for coming up to 12 years and I absolutely love my wife, please don't doubt that for a minute. We've known each other since we were kids and there's nobody I would rather be with.
Now, this is where it gets a little difficult, she's on the larger side...a 16/18 UK size. Don't get me wrong, I have zero issues with this. It never even comes to mind really but recently she's put on a little more weight than normal, which she is aware of and is definitely unhappy about.
I encourage her when she brings up trying to do something about it but I never broach the subject myself, she is very sensitive about it and the last thing she needs is me reminding her of it.
So far, so good...no issues there.
The problem, if you can call it that, is a bedroom one. A cliché I know but what can ya do.
Of late her weight has made it a little difficult to...well...you know. It's not an appeal thing, I find her insanely attractive...always have, always will, but of late her weight has made various positions somewhat uncomfortable and some just downright impossible (including one or two of her favourites). I feel like I am letting her down a bit in this respect but I do my best. I'm not sure how much detail I can go into on here but I'll dance around the topic like a kitten on stilts following a laser pointer.
I want to tell her about this but on the same not I don't want her to feel like I'm launching some kind of personal attack. I'm fairly certain that she is aware of this too and we've known each other long enough to trust each other with the subject. I'm just not sure how to bring the matter up. It's not just the sexual elements, there's health matters too but we've discussed that.
I just don't want her to think I am put off by her, I'm not. What do I do?
