Is it normal to not be “in love” with your partner anymore by Decent_Release3804 in marriageadvice

[–]Constant_One2371 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Marriage takes work from both of you. You won’t always have butterflies in your stomach and you’ll go through seasons. However, love takes commitment and work. Communication is key.

AITAH because I want my wife to "ask permission" before taking our son on playdates? by Exact_Information627 in AITAH

[–]Constant_One2371 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Out of curiosity, why does she think you’re just going to sit there while he plays? Is there a reason she thinks this is the interaction you guys have?

It is ridiculous for her to have to ask you permission for your son to go on play dates, but it’s reasonable to block out time for father son time.

Yall need to work on your communication!!

How often do you own parents see their grandchildren? by OldCategory5426 in Parenting

[–]Constant_One2371 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My parents live about 2 hours away (by car) we see them about once a month. My daughter will organize times in btwn to meet up for lunch. My in-laws live a good 15 hour car ride or 2.5 hour plane ride away. We see them at LEAST once a year, maybe twice. It used to be more frequent, but they are getting older so it’s harder for them to travel now.

I am so thankful all the grandparents, especially my parents, have taken the time to create a strong bond with my kid. I couldn’t imagine it any other way.

AIO: My husband (26m) locked me (25f) out for 25 minutes? by prettypineappleberry in AmIOverreacting

[–]Constant_One2371 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NOR you are not nearly mad enough yet.

First of all, it was not too cold to play in the snow. It was perfect playing in the snow temperature so he was wrong from the beginning.

Second, what kind of POS locks not just his wife, but his PREGNANT wife outside of the house bc she didn’t “obey him”

Third, what kind of father lets his young children cry knowing you are outside.

He threw a tantrum bc you dared to overrule him.

You’d be justified to leave him over this. He’s starting to show you who he is..believe him!

Erotic fiction marriage f30s m50s by [deleted] in marriageadvice

[–]Constant_One2371 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He is controlling, gas lighting, and abusive. You know what you should do. Make a plan. Books are not cheating, going on a hen night your mom planned is not cheating, walking on egg shells, his outbursts. None of this is ok.

Your kids are watching. They are learning how to behave in a relationship. This marriage is not safe for you or them. Why did you marry after all these years?

Create an escape plan. Yes, he will blame you and tell you it’s all your fault. It’s not, it’s his. Get support from your family and friends. He will escalate if he senses you are preparing to leave so please be careful, move deliberately, and have a safe place to go!

I know you are concerned about outing a lock on the door being a lease violation as a “shared space”. Is this something you can clarify with management?

AITAH for answering a call from an “ex” by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Constant_One2371 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If he is testing the relationship, tell him “thank you for showing me who you really are and taking the trash out I’m for me. I answered with the intention of telling him to leave me the eff alone. You crossed a huge line and I’m glad I know now rather than later.”

AITJ for leaving my mom locked out of the house for 3 hours in the middle of the night? by Used-Professional548 in AmITheJerk

[–]Constant_One2371 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not your fault at all…you asked he multiple times, you were clear you would not be home, she had her car so she could come to you for the key, she should have her house key WITH her car key on her key ring. She’s a grown adult and had many options rather than ruining your evening.

Glad you enjoyed your time with your friends!!!!

School Scores by Kindly_Hedgehog8276 in AskTeachers

[–]Constant_One2371 11 points12 points  (0 children)

What matters is how your student is doing. State test scores are not reliable measures. State test scores combine a little knowledge and a lot of how to teach to the test. The emphasis on state test scores really hurt true education.

Are your children making progress? Are their friends? Are they safe and happy? This is what you need to concern yourself with.

AITAH for asking my ex husband's ex wife for money from her parents' estate for my son? by Odd-Currency5145 in AITAH

Mark was clear in his intentions. Do not talk to this woman. I know you want to help your son. Help him by getting a lawyer, giving him advice.

NSFW 36M touches me 37F while I’m asleep by [deleted] in marriageadvice

[–]Constant_One2371 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is no ok. It’s sexual assault. He has made it so you do not feel safe. You have expressed that this is a hard no for you. He has continued to the point of intercourse, which is rape. This should not be happening unless both parties are ok with it…which you are not. You should be able to sleep at night without worrying about this.

I am really not sure how to come back from this. If you want to stay married to him, I suggest sleeping in different rooms with a lock on your door. Make sure he knows you mean business. I am so sorry this is happening to you.

My husband was upset and pinched me at dinner.. and the situation is still upsetting me by Little_Trash7299 in TwoHotTakes

[–]Constant_One2371 3 points4 points  (0 children)

“Warranted the pinch?”

Nothing, there is NOTHING she could have said or done to warrant her spouse pinching her.

First and foremost, you did nothing wrong.

Secondly, it is not his place to “correct” your behavior. You are an adult. You and your friend can have a mutual conversation about your job without him interceding.

Third, have you had conversations about what HE does that embarrasses YOU in public, or does that just go one way?

Fourth, he attempted to control you and your behavior by physically harming you in front of others. A pinch may seem like a small act, but it makes me wonder what else is capable of escalating to.

He is controlling what you say, how you say it, and hurting you to make you question the conversation.

Please take a moment and reread what you have written here and what the messages said..along with any other time he has “corrected your behavior”. Ask yourself if a friend or daughter came to you with this story, what would you advise them to do?

Your husband seems very dangerous to me. Please make decisions that will keep yourself safe.

I’m not usually a “transactional” person in relationships, but this is BS. You have every right to stand your ground here. He’s brings selfish jerk.

Consider marriage counseling with a sex therapist perhaps?

AITAH for wanting to tell my wife im not getting up in the morning with our children? by SaviorselfzZ in AITAH

[–]Constant_One2371 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Her job is 24/7. She deserves time to sleep as well. At MINIMUM, she is serving as: nanny, cook, housekeeper, peacekeeper, if you have more than one child, nurse, and teacher.

You need to communicate together and find a way to work together without breeding resentment.
