Whom would you rather have ask you to lose weight?

Your spouse?
A perfect stranger?

If we are to believe Andy, Candy would rather hear it from a stranger. Personally, I'd rather hear it from someone who loves me, because I could trust their motives more easily.

Unconditional love means loving someone in spite of the things that annoy you.

Indeed, much as Wanda Barzee never made a fuss.

If your love is unconditional, you would not complain about being asked to slim down - you would happily comply.

If your love is conditional, you would complain, whine, cry out in vain, hit back with a hurtful counter-remark, eat more carbs, storm off in a huff, etc. It is all a part of the vast, endless power struggle that occurs in intense conditional negotiations that represent real-world love.

The most aggressive response would be to comply, lose weight, then dress provocatively to make your spouse seethe as other people come on to you. That way you get the health benefits AND the revenge all in one tasty package.
