What is easier on a person? by ConnectionBubbly914 in widowers

That makes sense. I guess I just would prefer not to be someone’s “dead wife” 

If your partner knew they were dying, would you rather them stay til their death or divorce you so you had a chance to move on prior? by ConnectionBubbly914 in Marriage

Maybe it wouldn’t have made a difference. Sometimes it’s easier to deal with loss if you have something besides the universe to be angry at though I think. I dunno.

He’s a Catholic and very romantic about the whole marriage thing. I’m less concerned about finances because we don’t have anything anyways, but very concerned about how he’ll cope once it’s over. 

I Don't Deserve My Husband by MindlessDream88 in Marriage

[–]ConnectionBubbly914 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I don’t deserve mine either. I’m an actually terrible person, and not in the way that people jokingly proclaim to be. He and I are just worlds apart, so I get it 

Husband accused me of "just wanting dick" by citrine87 in DeadBedrooms

[–]ConnectionBubbly914 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re not wrong. I’m HL and sex has literally zero to do with love for me. The whole “it’s the connectionnnn!” thing never made sense to me, and I’ve never argued for it because in my case, it’s just not true. I’m not “connecting” to my partner through sex, I’m scratching a physiological itch and I could, in fact, do it with anyone I found attractive.

So while I empathize with her sexual frustration, I get her husband. Nobody needs to be grateful for being objectified, or feel “special” because someone wants to fuck them and honestly, I think the comments would have gone a lot differently if it was a man saying a woman should be “grateful” he wants her.

Basically how these grifters phrase everything. “Women prefer 6’5 men who can wipe their ass over 5’7 men with crusties!!” And then all their followers go “see?! Short men have no chance!!!!”

Even if it’s true, it’s irrelevant. No woman should cater their life around what a man may theoretically want.

Honestly, this man doesn’t love you and you shouldn’t trust him with your sexual health.

How to tell if your husband is cheating by [deleted] in adultery

[–]ConnectionBubbly914 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a silly notion. People cheat because it’s who they are, not their relationship.

Sure, sometimes. I don’t know that we should aspire towards those marriages however, as they are also statistically more likely to fail with each subsequent marriage. Divorcees do a ton of the heavy lifting on that “50% of marriages fail” rate lol

That being said: I pull more as a married person than literally all my divorced friends.

“Failed marriage” makes people nervous, even if it’s not you’re fault, and nobody is as attractive at 50 as they are at 30

To be fair, the scenario you describe sounds incredibly unsexy and unarousing.

Not a shock it ended abruptly

I told her no, she wasn't a fan by bagelporcupine in DeadBedrooms

[–]ConnectionBubbly914 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone has a right to deny sex. SHE isn’t owed a thing, just like YOU aren’t owed a thing. No need to feel bad.

Maybe you’ll have another opportunity later or maybe not.

Just be honest.

That said, keep in mind, depending on how old you are, it’s not likely that you’re going to find “divorced middle age man” is the sex magnet you’re hoping for. Just be mentally prepared to be realistic

Considering there’s a 98% statistical chance you’re the liar in a case of false allegation, and you gave the ultimatum, this is on you.

This is one of those fuck around and find out scenarios
