She's sticking with him until he becomes a successful lawyer. Not that far fetched Then again, she can divorce him later and since she was with him before he had money she would be entitled to a lot of it.

Joe Pesci's never been fat, although I can see where you're coming from. On another note, I don't find Marisa Tomei very attractive. She's fine, but I prefer less skinny; Tomei was borderline cadaverous in this film.

I think Joe Pesci is a pretty good looking guy. He's just doesn't have conventional-type good looks. And he's not fat. He's stocky in build but I noticed while watching today, he was actually in very good shape physically when he made this movie. Marisa Tomei is a beautiful woman but she is also playing an "out-of-work hairdresser" with a mid to lower class background. People think that if you are beautiful it's an automatic ticket to the big leagues romantically, but the truth is people of a given class tend to hang with people of the same class only. There's no guarantee that she would get some rich fabulous good looking guy to marry her no matter what she looks like. Most of the time I could see someone like Lisa making attempts to get a guy like that to marry her only to find out that most of them would only want to screw her on the side and marry a woman they would consider to be more refined.

@zephyr-123:
I mostly agree with Zephyr's post. And to the OP, I know this may sound a little sexist/ignorant, but in my own personal experience and observation, I can say that it seems like women are less concerned with looks than men. I myself can think of several couples I personally know with an overweight/conventionally unattractive male and a slim female.
And when women are concerned with looks, it's rarely fitness/actual strength but usually rather presentation, clothes, and hygeine (again from what I've seen/experienced). Pesci's character had all of those in the manner that someone from Tomei's character's upbringing would've found attractive at the time.
If there's any disparity or problem with their pairing, it was in age and not attractiveness. Pesci was almost old enough to be her father or at least older brother, I think an attractive actress closer to his age would've been more believable.

You don't understand? Maybe you're just a shallow person, who doesn't realize that it might be about more than just looks.
Ever see Dennis Kucinich's wife? She's about a head taller, 30 years younger and pretty easy on the eyes.
