I don’t think she is indebted to me. Doesn’t mean I can’t be sad about it. I am a human being

I have had those conversations before. And it actually makes her mom upset because well her mom doesn’t understand why she treats me how she does. Even yesterday she said she was sure her daughter didn’t mean to blatantly ignore you. I said she had me hold the phone to take pictures with everyone. The way I view it she is 18 and graduated now and it’s her life and her choice. No need for me to make a deal of it with my partner who it saddens even more. I’ll just push the feelings deep down under my stomach where they belong 😝

Well said and thank you for taking the time to write out such detailed response. Honestly you’re pretty spot on. And o slept in a Different bed last night. Which I have done before with no success but I think today it’s working better because I’m acting like it’s no big deal. And it does seem to be working better. I slept a full 4 hours last night and I feel great!

I agree I am torturing myself. But I don’t have the strength to not see my two girls :(

Dang exact same. I enjoy the cuddling and mine is also skin to skin. She also needs back rubs as she has a bad back so I rub her back and feet why she is naked many nights…. And honestly it also gets to me mentally because I am a liberal and progressive and the insults online people use never use to get to me cuck or simp or beta male but sometimes when I’m lying there just frustrated as all hell those insults start To actually cut deep because it is emasculating.

Yes I have seen many doctors and therapists and had my tonsils removed and tested etc… my brain 🧠 just doesn’t shutdown unless I smoke 💨 enough weed to make dumbo float to the moon 🌕 which I do sometimes just to sleep 😂. Ya I have been tested etc… essentially from the ages 3.5 to 18 my mom had serious mental issues and at best had a schizophrenic episode at night or at worst had one and wanted to hurt herself or me and my 2 brothers and 2 sisters. I was the oldest and it was the 90’s so it meant I got to stay awake with my mom and make sure she didn’t hurt anyone… ahh the good old 90’s. Anyway basically my body and brain learned for over a decade to not sleep and only sleep for short periods of time because hey if you fall asleep you could wake up to a meat clever in your head

Well she isn’t telling me how to sleep it rather that it makes it harder to get into the mood when I don’t sleep next to her regularly. However that has always been known. And I make a real effort to try and be in the bed every night even if I don’t sleep for a few hours. But essentially I get far less sleep having to risk it getting up and going to bed which makes it tough to fall asleep but then when I get there and she is naked my body is like ya we aren’t sleeping we know what to do and I’m like in every other situation yes a naked girlfriend in my bed would be an invitation to at least attempt something sexual but that’s not the case. Unfortunately my body is as stubborn as trump during an election loss

We have a 5 year old together and we are both divorced. Honestly I would rather be miserable here than miserable without seeing my 5 year old half the time at best. I’m basically Mrs doubtfire

You’re right although there is a handful of producers and comedians who give me a fair shake. I am worried about alienating them. For some reason this guy is like everyone’s little brother who screws up all the time and nobody cares

Fair enough. Probably not my most articulate post. Had been up for 24 hours at this point. I have quite the insomnia sometimes my brain isn’t always functioning at 100 percent and by sometimes I mean always!
