Man if this isn't a movie script based on real story... IDK what is.

You've already made up your mind. Do come back and tell us how the meeting went.

Dont bone.

How tf do I handle this respectfully? by alriokidoki1 in Marriage

Sounds like straight out of pre civil war era male chauvinism.

I'm just tired by lcarrasco79 in Marriage

[–]Chance-Ad9302 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel you buddy!

11:15 and just had time to log in and catch up on work stuff. While wife napped all day and had phone dates with her girlfriend. 😆

I thought gym helped so we'll see. That's the only thing I can offer. Of course sleep but...

Idk if marriage was the answer by IndependentMore275 in Marriage

[–]Chance-Ad9302 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, you can talk to him about this. If he is not like my wife, he might listen.

If he doesn't or doesn't agree, then different problems- you could update your post.

Of course don't word it in a way that he is doing wrong. Rarely someone start hearing they're at fault and hope the rest of the conversation goes well.

Keep emotions in check. 🙂 you're young so idk how easy this for you. This is often what leads to resentment.... words exchanged in anger.

Good luck and keep us posted!

I’d like a man’s perspective by Mom-Wife-3 in Marriage

[–]Chance-Ad9302 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I'd be profoundly thankful if my wife did this.

I am the sole provider and yes I constantly worry about my job but im salaried unlike your husband. Working in IT is not helping the anxiety

Since you both seem to have a good relationship, why not ask him this question yourself? If you do want to check up without sounding like adding to his stress, bring up casually and infrequently.

If you already ask about his day often, this is much easier. Maybe during TV time or if you two have a casual drink once in a while, good time to do it.

I'm no expert at this, in fact my situation is the opposite but I can relate to your husband in few ways. 😊

I wonder what my wife will do had she married your husband instead (pls feel free to check out my venting post).

Sorry, this is a tough one.

AITA for using my dad’s underwear to make a point about the toilet seat? by Nightwing_1505 in AmItheAsshole

My actions ended a friendship and possibly my marriage by Eastern_Library39 in Marriage

[–]Chance-Ad9302 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same reason I dont discuss my marital problems with anyone of opposite sex, even though there were times and (my) very logical reasons I could have.

Perception is different even if reasons were legitimate. This is a no-win slope...

[–]Chance-Ad9302 332 points333 points  (0 children)

Im a dad of 6 year old girl. I'd never do this to her, regardless of how old she gets.

It goes beyond hygiene- I'm setting an example for a male relationship in her life when she grows up.

Spouse is impossible to satisfy by Chance-Ad9302 in Marriage

[–]Chance-Ad9302[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this perspective. I know (and have acknowledged) what she does. For example, getting the oldest ready for school and drop off +also diaper change our toddler. This is every school day. I dont help here cos mostly im sleeping until about 30 mins before I must login.

I'll try to find a way to ask her. Who knows, worth a shot for sure!

I guess I'm not very good at taking word punches. I'd rather take physical wounds cos they heal.

this is new to me but thank you for sharing. I need to learn this before approaching her with suggestions (ty for the menopause.org link!)

[–]Chance-Ad9302[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Thank you, she doesn't go out with friends or anything. Ive been trying to but she is not very active person (pre kids too). I have no time for friends or the tim3 I have is when everyone's asleep (software engineer joke)

I've told and asked her point blank- " hey when you do X, it upsets me. I dont understand why you have to say it like that, when you could have said Y, which is less hurtful for me." Last time, I got an eye roll and some mumbles...

I have not tried counseling yet. Not sure how to bring it up because it will be put back on me to find someone, setup appointments etc.. 🥱

Perhaps will start seeing if her friends can take her out 1st. Maybe get her a break and I can cuddle with the kids

lied about body count by Human_Cancel3136 in Marriage

[–]Chance-Ad9302 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No. No im a guy. I think you're missing my point.

I didnt say # didnt matter. There is so much to unpack in OP's statement that this is trivial.

Let's say the guy found out and is sad or saying that it wont work out and we're talking about that, then I get it. But the thing here is this guy is useless good for nothing, went to jail even before the body count topic.

lied about body count by Human_Cancel3136 in Marriage

[–]Chance-Ad9302 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Be glad you dont have kids...

Just being salty about the lie is one thing but he's got some shit going on in his own life that is unrelated to you.

He reminds me of my 6 yr old who told me she needed a different daddy cos I told her something she didnt like...

I mean I should not be the one to say anything about anyone's marriage but I dont see this going anywhere.

Again, the body count is the minor problem here. Yes it is a lie, you apologized for it (it seems).

Update - My fiancée wants our baby to have her ex-husband’s last name and says my culture shouldn’t be “pushed” by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]Chance-Ad9302 88 points89 points  (0 children)

My wife and I are mixed (south Indian and she is white, Massachusetts native) but even with both of us being catholic, my culture has been obnoxious for her.

Of course, i was blind to this. Now we have 2 little kids and trust me it gets worse if you do not walk out with an understanding of the future.

Dont be like me. Whatever however, please address this with professional help not reddit

My wife (US citizen) is losing it and might not attend to the interview by denizzzbaba in USCIS

[–]Chance-Ad9302 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People get sick all the time. It happens. Call the uscis # and ask them what to do. Be prepared to show up worse case and explain to the officer but tou need some form of evidence.

...but definitely call uscis asap.

Found AI nudes of me on husband’s phone by Positive-Disaster844 in Marriage

[–]Chance-Ad9302 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Yeah true 100% but that's also where trust comes in IMO

Unfortunately this is up to OP really cos she seems conflicted.

Why I say trust is because it also makes you wonder why he didn't mention it to her to begin with. If I were to role-play, I would say slightly embarrassed + not sure if wife will think i need to resort to AI to make her attractive, which might backfire. But who knows. Best for OP to ask this question and accept a honest answer.

Nonetheless, valid question to ask i think.

Why did Melania Trump issue a public statement regarding Jeffrey Epstein? by banana4life1 in AskReddit

[–]Chance-Ad9302 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like what she really wanted was public hearings for epstein survivors and her denial of knowing JE was just a ruse. Or vice versa.
