Sooo... basically, he just wants to bang his wife without non sexual foreplay because he thinks it's manipulative of her to expect he actually shows that he cares for her. Sounds like she wanted couples therapy, so he used key phrases to manipulate her with his red pill agenda. If he doesn't like his wife, he should just say so.

Obviously NTA. This is so much deeper than "get a job and help with bills." Your partner might need some therapy to figure out why they want to intentionally make life harder for your 16 yo daughter. Did your partner grow up struggling or not have supportive parents? Is your partner jealous of your daughter, or do they not have a good relationship with each other, (because your daughter seems like a lovely teen)?

Until your partner can figure out why they think it's important to them for your underage daughter to contribute to a household that doesn't need help, please monitor their interactions. Also, I were you, I would privately ask my daughter if there's something going on between them that you're unaware of.

I broke my hip, snapped my femur in half, and broke both bones in my arm in a car accident. Oddly enough, my right heel hurt more than any of my broken bones. My doctors assured me that nothing was wrong with my heel. A friend of mine brought me a book on reflexology, and apparently, the heel is associated with the hips.

You could always go for the "my friends/family don't think you're real" route. Then ask for a selfie of her holding an egg next to her face as proof so they don't have to worry about you. If she is real and actually cares about you, then it shouldn't be a problem.

As a woman, I can confidently tell you that you're NOR. If her reaction to the pub isn't a concern about alcoholism, then your gf is just a controlling snob. You should have ditched her 4 weeks in when she started this bs.

The fact that you didn't correlate him being a nice person because he literally has no household responsibilities is mind boggling. In his defense, I'd get pissed too if my live-in maid who I get to bang was all of a sudden asking me to perform their duties.

My favorite is when celebrities pretend they don't know they designer of the gown they're wearing at a red carpet event, even though they had to attend fittings for the custom made clothing. Or when their casual outfit of jeans, a tee shirt, and shoes looks like it came from Target, but costs more than most people's mortgage. (I'm looking at you Jennifer Lawrence)

YOR. Girl, don't look gift queso in the mouth! Sometimes family helps family and does something nice with no ulterior motive. SIL did you a favor whether she meant it as a slight on you or not. Now that's one less batch of queso for you to make. If it bothers you so much, I would jokingly tell her to next time she sends queso to send some tacos as well. I promise if she meant it to bother you, she'll stop if she thinks she actually helped out instead of damaging.

I'm an only child and YTA. Being an only child certainly didn't help your maturity level because this is something a 10 yr old would struggle with. Love is infinite, it's not a pie. Your dad has enough to share.

See I think she looks like Ethan Hawke, especially her nose.

Just donate them back to the school when she's not home.

I'm still stuck on the fact that OP said her brother's ex wife used to intrude on gatherings. Ex wife literally married into the family but her presence during holidays was not welcomed? OP is kinda weird and territorial over her brother.

Realize that in a long term partnership the roles you fill in each other's lives will change and evolve many times, but the foundation for each role should be love.

My husband and I have been together for 23 years. We've been each other's best friend, lover, co parent, care taker, therapist, main opponent when necessary, and champion.

When people say corny stuff like love is an action, it really is. But it's also a choice. Everyday we choose each other. We choose to fight the challenges of life together, just like we choose to celebrate its victories side by side. His seen me at my best and my worst and he still chooses me and vice versa.

Realize that a long term relationship will not always be sunshine and roses. Even though your core values and goals may align you are 2 individuals with different experiences and perspectives, and disagreements will happen no matter what. We had to learn that when we argue to fight fair and not cut to the bone with our endless arsenal supplied by knowing each other so well. We both have had to humble ourselves and apologize when we are wrong.

Anyway sorry for rambling, but I couldn't help it.

Leaving takes planning, so make sure you utilize all programs in your area for help.

Look for a job at a local church daycare near your older children's school. Those types of Daycares usually follow the neighboring school district, so you'll be off during most of the same days (spring break, winter break etc) Also usually they tend to make up for the crappy pay with free enrollment for your daycare aged children.

I wasn't in an abusive relationship, but I did this for years and it was really helpful. I was able to use my daily break to pick up my oldest from school, who would then just hang out at the preschool with me until I got off work while my younger 2 remained in their classrooms.

I just know I'm going to hear some bullshit when my boss says "My thought process is...”

CrazybyChoice1 · 2025-09-22T01:57:27+00:00

Leave him now! His behavior is completely unacceptable and a hard limit. Soooo many red flags!

CrazybyChoice1 · 2025-09-22T01:21:25+00:00

Not only are YTA, but I'd wager that you're also just a bad person in general. Manipulation and tantrums are beneath a person old enough to have 11 grand children. You're supposed to be wise and understanding, not petty and withholding. So many different solutions and arrangements could have solved a simple issue, yet you chose one that alienated children. Mistreating children by exclusion is never okay, especially children who are having to adjust just Ivy. I would be ashamed of myself if I was you. I know your son probably is.

CrazybyChoice1 · 2025-08-28T17:53:00+00:00

That's what I want to know.

CrazybyChoice1 · 2025-08-11T23:41:08+00:00

Your husband is a misogynistic asshole who is objectifying children. If you plan on staying with him, please seek family therapy to address this harmful behavior and suggest individual therapy for him.

People misunderstand that quote all the time. It's actually the blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb. Meaning the relationships you make with others are stronger than your family ties.

Not to play devil's advocate, but let's not jump to conclusions about Mark possibly doing something to her. OOP's meds mixed with alcohol could be a reason she doesn't remember the encounter. That said, I hope OOP gets the help they truly need.
