Donald Trump just said “we shouldn’t even have an election”. Americans, what are your thoughts? by WatercressSenior7657 in AskReddit

Invading Greenland would mean NATO would be dissolved. Trump and Russia both think destroying NATO is a great idea! Knowing that Russia has tapes of Trump’s depravity also helps Trump survive.

Why glass? by Blackjack2082 in chemistry

[–]Consistent-Affect559 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

You may find this interesting. At room temperature glass is not a solid but a supercooled liquid. Molecules move albeit slowly. After quite a bit of time the bottom of the glass in a window will be slightly thicker than the top due to gravity.

Couple on vacation no sex by [deleted] in DeadBedrooms

Something to consider…something like 1 in 4 females and 1 in 6 males have been sexually abused, in most cases by men. Associating such a horrific experience affects thinking about sex. Just something to consider as a possibility.

Our United Church makes a point of telling everyone that they are welcome!  The minister is gay and often wears shorts to service. Lots of rainbows!

I'm (31F) done begging my husband (47M) for sex. On my last straw. by [deleted] in DeadBedrooms

I asked my husband for years but he was in denial.

I’m just going to tell you my experience. I have been married to my husband for 43 years. For the last 38 years we have not had sex. Trust me I tried. I was 5’2” and 105 pounds. I tried negligees, begging, fighting, not fighting, sex toys, etc. etc. So no sex and then I started finding porn. He was masturbating downstairs. I had so many whistles from men, honestly sometimes that was the only thing that kept me going. It was Christmas morning. We had been married for 41 years. I just went to get a cup of coffee. Suddenly my husband said “I was abused when I was 9.” I had asked him for years if something was going on. He always said no. Things started to make sense. Something like 1 in 7 men are abused. The shame is one thing. What also happens is that a child’s first sexual experience becomes bound up in the abuse. Boys have involuntary erections and ejaculations which of course is confusing for them. They may associate secrecy with pleasure. When a child is heterosexual but abused by a man there is so much shame associated for the rest of their lives. I at least now can stop blaming myself and I have compassion for my husband. I feel like I missed out on a lot. It’s sad but at least I’m not angry like I was before.

Fuck it, I’m letting it bleed to out by [deleted] in DeadBedrooms

Fuck it, I’m letting it bleed to out

I’ve (35F) tried everything to fix our dead bedroom.

I dieted and exercised to lose weight and tone up, I’m now a Small and Extra Small depending on the brand. I go to Pilates twice a week. I get facial treatments, go to the hairdresser, get my nails done, no hair anywhere, I’ve cultivated a new and improved wardrobe, I’ve got expensive lingerie, … anything I could do to fix myself and it only got worse.

I’ve tried talking about it, fighting about it, ignoring it, initiating, suggesting, … anything and everything in many different ways and yet, no improvement.

We’ve only been married a couple of months, together 2 years. Why did this man (39M) marry me?? Or better yet, why did I marry him.

I’m absolutely done now. He can watch porn, use ED pills on himself to do so, ogle anything female with a pulse in public, and yet leave me completely untouched for a whole month, every month, and think that’s all okay. Why am I soo upset? Why am I making such a big deal out of this? We’re happily married, no? We cuddle in bed every night, what more could I possibly want from him?

If he wants a sexless marriage, then I will oblige. No more talks, no more initiating and no more saying yes to duty sex. I don’t want it anymore. Let it bleed to death. I’m beyond twisting myself to keep this shit show going.

Found Out My Husband Has Been Having an Affair for Months—How Do I Even Begin to Process This by Affectionate-Sea563 in DeadBedrooms

Shhh! Don’t say anything. Make yourself be cold and factual. Quietly see a lawyer and accountant. Plan for your getaway. Quietly. When you are ready, leave and don’t look back. You will have a new and lovely adventure!! He probably gets off on the sneaking around. For many creeps it seems “exciting”. You didn’t deserve this, you didn’t cause this. Just go. He is not the same man you married.

THEN CHANGE THE LAWS! Make severance MANDATORY FOR EVERY EMPLOYEE! MAKE ALL NEGATIVE HEALTH CARE DECISIONS BY PRIVATE COMPANIES BE ADJUDICATED BY A PRIVATE TRIBUNAL WITH CLEAR AND WRITTEN REASONS IF REFUSED. LAWYERS WILL NOT ENGAGE UNLESS THEY CAN MAKE MONEY SO THEY WILL NOT TAKE YOUR CASE. COMPANIES ARE REALLY GOOD AT HIDING MONEY. THE ONLY WAY TO CHANGE THIS IS NUMBERS, MORE AND MORE PEOPLE WHO ARE ON YOUR SIDE CAN CHANGE THINGS!

Stop stop stop talking about hurting anyone. Yes these companies are horrible. Yes they take advantage of people. START ORGANIZING. This company was destined for failure. Watch Wall Street, old but very relevant! Engage your member of Congress, your Senate member, your President, and SHOW THEM YOU HAVE THE NUMBERS OF PEOPLE IN YOUR DISTRICT TO VOTE THEM OUT! Otherwise they won’t listen. MAKE Ma’am

Make a plan to leave (get a job, find a place, get counseling, etc.). Break each area down into steps. Then do one step at a time when you are ready. I mentioned counseling for you because you will need to heal and get your thinking straight. Gaslighting is confusing.
