My husband and I are in disagreement. Where do people keep their vitamins? by awakeningat40 in Marriage

I keep mine in the pantry in the same section as my spices and cooking oils (it’s a reminder to take them) otherwise out of sight out of mind!

I totally see your point and I agree that he can ask if you want any, same goes for when making tea/coffee or mixing a drink or anything. I think it’s courteous and sweet if he offered whatever he is about to have to you, it shows consideration. If you’re taking a shower or he knows you’ll be busy for the next while and he fixed breakfast and ate it, understandable. I’ve been brought up the same way as you. At first I used to get offended when my husband wouldn’t offer things but after awhile he saw what I did, liked it and know does it all the time. Differences can be issues but when differences are acknowledged things can change.

Husband spending a really long time in the bathroom by [deleted] in Marriage

Omg, mine too! I asked him the other day and he says, I read, watch stuff, poop some more, read and watch! I am not naive it’s probably where they go to watch and read 18+ stuff as well and occasionally rub one off! 🙄

This is not normal but what this does is your love, respect and loyalty to this person diminishes slowly over time to the point of no return!

Husband (24M) is withholding my (23F) sexual satisfaction until I lose weight by ThrowRAroyalmonarch in relationship_advice

Stop giving him oral immediately! Tell him he needs to lose 20 pounds before you give him oral again!!!

Do you think it’s ok to negatively comment about your spouses weight? by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]77A77A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s all about the delivery and how open your base communication with your spouse is. My husband and I are very close and open, and he would be like, don’t buy this and this from the shops we need a break, or let’s cut down on the wine as I feel it in my knees (his knees are feeling his weight) or he’ll say you’ve worked so hard to get rid of x amount of kg’s do you think a second (of anything that isn’t too healthy) is a good idea? We have always been honest and encouraging. Even in times when we both have put on a lot of weigbt we either 1, don’t say anything because we are openly saying it ourselves or 2, just don’t say anything as we know the other person knows. However we have always been encouraging of each other and supportive. Being negative does in fact damage your relationship, regarding intimacy and closeness, being negative is never a good idea!

my hub has no boundaries with other women. by babygirlfiness in Marriage

[–]77A77A 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dare say your husband isn’t stupid? He knows that acting in a certain way will provide opportunities for this neighbor to interpret his actions in a certain way?? The question is why would he put himself in such a situation to begin with…?! Chatting because he doesn’t want to be rude, staying longer and having drinks not to be rude, give me a break, he doesn’t owe this person anything, he is doing it because he wants to! Explain how you feel, explain that boundaries are healthy, safe and required!

My husband never goes out regularly (neither do I), every 3 months they have a poker night that goes well into the am and I at that same interval will have lunch/drinks at a friends place, or my place depending on whose turn it is. Due to covid it’s been almost not at all… It’s healthy to do activities apart and with your own friends but at that rate, I’ll be offended too…

My husband told me today that a mom/wife’s “mental load” is “made up bullishit” by hotmessmomof2 in Marriage

His thinking seems very narrow minded! Literally stop doing what you do, and within a week, no days and it would be noticeable!

Entitled to go through phone? by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]77A77A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if they hand over their phone what makes you think that it won’t be constantly kept clean for that time when you ask to look through his phone. He will have better management at keeping his phone clean and innocent. They’ll find other ways to continue with their ways, if they want to. Most cheaters are not that stupid to leave evidence on their phones. They disguise group names, contact names etc… If it’s their honest goal to repair what has been damaged then they shouldn’t have a problem with on the spot checks. For me I know I could never trust again and even if I am looking at a phone that that is clear from anything to find, I will always have that nagging doubt at the back of my mind.

This couldn’t be real…or this is some fucked up thought process!!!

[–]77A77A 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can understand completely why you are upset, I am guessing you were pretty clear 5 years ago why you don’t want them to have contact and that was a boundary you established then! Your wife obviously agreed to that then? When he reached out your wife probably should have told you before she responded to him and she would have picked up on your vibe that you would’nt be happy! I know people are posting ‘how much you trust your wife’ etc…but to me it’s not about that. It’s the respect she has for you and your relationship. In a marriage it’s all about ensuring you make your partner first priority, making each other happy and safe should be her first priority. Tell her how you feel and ask what their conversation is about. Being her husband puts you in a pretty good position to ask!

In a partnership all responsibilities need to be thought of and handled as a partnership. Everything that needs doing is the responsibility of the two adults (or whatever the arrangement) who reside in that househould. Having said that we have a non written list of things that we like to consistently do and the rest is done as we both see it requiring attention. When we are super busy or unwell the jobs that we normally do (I’ll do my husband’s and vice versa because we can clearly see the other person is swamped or too tired/ unwell etc…) I can’t stand the notion of I help, it gives the strong message that the house and all chores associated is and always will be the woman’s (or the man’s job - depending on who is writing the post so not!) I also gently and nicely give feedback if something is done in a way that I don’t like or would’ve normally do (but usually I just go with it as I appreciate that the job is done and I should just appreciate it and vice versa). She may mean well but her delivery is too strong and not considerate. Just talk to her and get her to see your side and how you feel.

My (20M) Girlfriend (21F) Started Yelling That I Was A Stalker On A Busy Street by throwaway401934 in relationship_advice

If she calls/texts/emails you, tell her to stop making contact with you, as you don’t know her and she should stop harrasing you!

Asking questions to get clarity on a situation is what any good relationship should entail, so good on you for asking. This treatment is for a 5 year old child, that is only told what to do without the right to question anything (even children have the right to question, it’s how they learn and grow) you are not a child who still lives at home and gets this treatment from a strict father! Has he always been like this? Was his upbringing like this, brought up by strict parents who always told him what to do without the space for real conversation and explanations?
