She's a keeper

In a sense of understanding the wife's perspective, proximity is just as important as the other major factors that affect how likely a relationship is to begin. There was a cool study of college students who lived in an apartment style building that showed you were most likely to begin a relationship with the person who had a door immediately next to yours. The only exception to that was for the person who had a door immediately next to the mailboxes. Proximity matters because it lets another person see you enough to form opinions based on a lot of interactions, and we all know someone who 'shines' despite their physical looks.
Plot twist: new neighbor was wearing a shirt that read, "I
dad bods," and was already flirting (asking for help moving boxes /eyeroll) with the guy in sweatpants.That study seems kinda backwards. I lived next to my future wife in student apartments, but that’s because we liked each other and intentionally chose the arrangement.

The apartments were randomly assigned. Do you know many freshmen who got to choose their dorms? Once I was a sophomore+, I did, but that first year in university-run student housing I didn't get to pick.

I would bet the entirety of my yearly pay that it was absolutely, 100% a joke and they have a perfectly healthy relationship.
Oh, definitely. My point still stands for anyone saying it for real.

This is a real phenomenon. Men are more attractive when they're already in a relationship.
There are similar psychological effects that exist elsewhere. A job applicant is more attractive if they currently have a job. A scholarship application is more attractive if you list your existing scholarships. The effect is basically: someone else found you desirable, and therefore I must also.
The effect is so strong that it encourages people to fake it to gain the benefits.
You're also more confident when you're not looking for anything tbh

No, it was very serious. Big red flag. He should hit a lawyer, delete a gym, and social media up.
Without context we can't know if it was serious, a joke, or completely made up.
-
Really sad that so many people are closed-minded about relationships with mailboxes.
Yeah, some people think there should only be relationships between mailboxes and femailboxes.

I must be ugly as sin. My wife and I have been married almost five years and I have yet to be in a situation where a woman is pursuing me and I can shout, “I don’t know you! You’re not my wife!” and run away.

Well, they fucked each other a few times before the husband figured it out. This is the scene where he gives them his blessing, then they have a 3-way (off camera)

A girl sees a guy with a girlfriend. Girl's monkeybrain says "she thinks he's a good bet, so he's already been vetted, and he's probably a good bet."
Now a girl sees a guy at a party with two girls flirting with him. Now two other girls think he's a good bet. He must be a good bet.
Now scale up. One guy is on stage playing the guitar. 3000 women are screaming that they love him. Our girl's monkeybrain: "literally thousands of other girls are debasing themselves to be with him - he is the most desireable guy in the world. Quick, scream, get his attention! He's your perfect soul mate, just make him notice you!"

Ah, that woud make much more understandable

Not a deal breaker. The dad bod is in. I suspect other dad qualities are also in. Like sweatpants and socks with sandals.

Oh bless your heart.
You realize that.a young woman who is even mildly attractive can pretty well have her pick of men her own age. She dont want no tubby dude 20 years older, wearing clothes from Costco and driving around in a Subaru crosstrek.
Once us guys hit our 40s we just disappear into the hedges like homer, just part of the background.
