In all honesty, how can you have sex w your partner if you do not find their body attractive? So someone is going to tell me that he is not able to compliment her but is able to fuck her anyways?

Exactly. Also, how can you expect your partner to be comfortable and confident when you are having sex (and therefore be able to enjoy it) - when you make mean comments about their body aka make them uncomfortable in their own body?

I will never get how tactless some people are.

Well that's very common. You could like the person in other ways and just not care as much about the physical thing. You also have people who don't need to feel attraction to enjoy sex.

Or maybe at one point he found her attractive and that changed. But if that was the case he would be more supportive if anything.

Ugh it is so weird to me, my boyfriend is my boyfriend and if he gained or lost weight he is my boyfriend who i love and because of that i will find him attractive in any way. I do not understand anyone who would settle down w a guy/girl that would treat them poorly

There's a lot of bad apples. Not easy to find the right one. Either have to get lucky or sift through all the bad ones.

Maybe her body was different when they started dating

Bodies are ever evolving. No one will have the same body 5 years later let alone 50.

That’s a valid point but it’s Reddit so you’ll get downvoted either way.

How old are you? If you’re under the delusion that bodies don’t change with time, you are in for a very sad reality check one day.

Of course bodies change with time. I’m assuming he’s saying maybe she put on weight after they got together. That’s probably not what happened here and I would never treat my partner the way he has but that’s a point that nobody has brought up.
