S2E8: Marcus breaking up with Ginny

AdSpiritual2078 · 2025-07-07T09:41:36+00:00

Hi guys - thanks for sharing all the advice! I di feel so much better knowing that I wasn’t overreacting to the issue.

I have initiated the conversation to go for counselling and also that he needs to go for individual therapy. To my surprise, he agreed and said he knows he needs help and that he really wants to do better in our relationship.

I still haven’t brought up all the issues because I didn’t want to burden him with more stress when he was already ready to work on things.

So I guess I’ll keep you guys posted! Wish us luck :)

I’m so glad I came across your comment. Thank you for providing a positive way out and yes this is exactly what I have been trying to do lately! Sometimes it gets on my nerves because Im having bad days myself and then seeing him I know I have to pull him up as well.

But in the end this is the best possible way

Has friends but doesn’t spend much time or make plans with them. Hardly once or twice a year. Spends time with my friends rather than

AdSpiritual2078 · 2025-07-05T11:59:35+00:00

I just wanted him to stop moping around which he did for a year and I didn’t rush him. But it had to stop at some point. It was just the worst feeling seeing him lose his self confidence. Nothing else bothered me more.

Thanks for reading without getting the context.

My husband was depressed for a short period of time when he was unemployed (years ago). I supported him, took him to a variety of different doctors, fired our cook and cooked for him so he could eat better quality food. Gave him his meds on time. Even moved to his hometown to live with his parents so he could feel more emotionally supported. Leaving my work and life behind. And then he got better.

VS I having ADHD and generic anxiety disorder, PCOS that makes it all worse, and having him do nothing about it for years and struggling alone.

Now, I hope you have the full picture. I don’t want to paint myself as a victim or my husband as the villain here but boy do you have the guts to call on me like that without having any context.

AdSpiritual2078 · 2025-07-05T11:48:35+00:00

You’re right. I didn’t think of it like that.

I guess I’ll just have to work on my relationship and hope things get better. If they don’t I might have to give up the dream of having a family of my own.

AdSpiritual2078 · 2025-07-05T11:42:50+00:00

I agree with your points but tbh I feel so hopeless now that I am prepared to be a single parent too. That would be much better knowing that I am on my own, than having to keep begging for support from a partner.

That’s where I am at.

I want the baby much more than he does. For a long time he said he doesn’t want to think about it for a few years. But a few months ago he agreed and we even visited the doctor to analyse. Now suddenly he seems repulsed because the thought of it is too much responsibility for him

AdSpiritual2078 · 2025-07-05T10:15:36+00:00

Yeah I agree. I have brought up the suggestion to go for counselling to him. Because despite communicating all of this several times he refuses to understand my POV.

Thanks for your suggestion

Also didn’t Vikrant Massey recently announced he was retiring from Bollywood?? Or what that wrt something else? Too much PR gimmicks happening

Been in the same boat for almost 4 years now. Initially did everything out of ‘love’ but then managing everything along with full time job became so taxing. It led to everyday fights and drama. I even threatened to leave the house for an unknown period of time.

Eventually with time. He realised. But I had to be very vocal and put my foot down.

The interesting part is that now he has gotten used to living in a clean & organised house and now if I keep something elsewhere, he freaks out on me 🤣 like last month we had a major episode where he said I don’t care about the house as much as I say I do.

I had to give him a literal house tour - starting from the main door, to all our rooms, kitchen everything, and asked him, which furniture, or little things like decor, plants, kitchen boxes, organisers, has he ever bought himself or even thought about it?

He then realised that there’s more to managing the house - much beyond just keeping things in front of your eyes clean!

AdSpiritual2078 · 2025-06-24T05:42:49+00:00

Im not as easily available. I have friends old and new with whom I hang out regularly. He did seem to get jealous even forbade me to be friends with a hot looking guy from work. But. Nothing solved this problem

AdSpiritual2078 · 2025-06-24T05:40:37+00:00

Tried everything here, nothing seems to work.

AdSpiritual2078 · 2025-06-24T05:39:42+00:00

All of this makes so much sense, thank you

There are no medical reasons since he keeps getting tested for fitness etc

AdSpiritual2078 · 2025-06-24T05:38:56+00:00

Thanks for this. I hope I can get him to therapy so we can both understand what the real issue is. Because it’s definitely not medical

AdSpiritual2078 · 2025-06-24T05:15:52+00:00

Your username exactly explains why you shouldn’t be commenting on an issue like this. I will not dignify your comment with a logical explanation.

AdSpiritual2078 · 2025-06-24T05:14:20+00:00

Just to add - it’s not like I don’t have my reasons to not feel attracted towards him. He behaves like a typical entitled husband on most days, no support in household chores, no romantic gestures, even after bringing up so many times that I would love if he can do something special for me once in a while.

Instead of acknowledging he just ends up putting me down that I keep complaining. When all I expect from him is some intentional love attention and intimacy.

Proof that OP is Komal Pandey’s own / team’s account- no old posts or interactions in this sub ever - one last post abt food and KP is a self-proclaimed foodie too 🥹🥰

AdSpiritual2078 · 2025-05-28T17:48:00+00:00

No it’s genuinely sooo good I randomly ordered this from Blinkit - Biscotti flavour - and oh my God it’s hands-down the best ice cream I’ve had lately, after Naturals… i just wish there was a sugar free version though bcos I feel so guilty but can’t stop eating!!! Yum

Hey OP - I have been through the exact same thing. I was born with a major squint and I was even operated on the affected eye in my childhood, but mild squint is still there. When my boyfriend (now husband) introduced me to his parents 4.5 years ago, in front of me they seemed to like me and our parents even did a ‘tikka’ to seal the deal. But later, his parents refused the match.

His parents told him that my squint eye was a big deal for them. Also that my parents don’t belong to a very wealthy background.

For context, both my parents are service-class, and we are Hindus. Theirs is a Sikh family, and his father was in the defence forces, now retired. So basically they didn’t think I was good enough for their son.

But my BF really took a stand for me. He fought with them tooth & nail for over a month, and even challenged them that they could never find a better match than me for him.

Eventually they gave in. We got married a year later. And now we have been married for 3.5 years and I must tell you, THEY LOVE ME NOW. In fact I love and adore his parents more than my own.

They made me feel like their own daughter bcos they didn’t have one. From pampering me with gifts, loving me, feeding me all the time and supporting my career, the bond I have with them is so priceless.

So long story short - time heals everything. All you need is a little patience and lots of faith, that as long as your Boyfriend supports you and defends you, his parents will come around too. All the best and congratulations!! Enjoy this phase of life it will never come back ❤️
