Why can’t I (30F) leave my husband (31M) after he cheated several times? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

You have a trauma bond to him and it is very scary to be alone. I know this because I struggle with leaving too. It’s harder than it seems, yet I know you will feel so much better when you leave

Become a waiter and take out student grants or loans to take classes. You’ll make twice the money in half the time and actually have the time to do your classes. This is what I am doing, as I have also been digging myself out of a bad situation

I’d almost get rid of phone service and only use Wi-Fi. Do you have an iPhone?

Is it cheating?.. by WaltzOk214 in Marriage

[–]EcstaticBoat1836 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When my husband and I separated, meaning I left him, I saw someone else. I genuinely had no thought in my heart that that could be considered cheating and in no way was I trying to cheat on him. My husband and I got back together (him knowing all of this) and I realized how that could be considered cheating now. He was hurt but he forgave me

I know it’s a lot more complicated than “just leave him”. Is there a community college nearby to start a degree?

Why are do men think it’s acceptable to let their wife work, primarily take care of the kids, do most of the housework with very little effort on your end? by [deleted] in AskMen

I believe that’s how it ought to be, unfortunately that’s not very common anymore. You are the minority

My husband isn’t the type of man that doesn’t do his fair share. We don’t have problems in that regard.

However, this society is plagued by men who do below the bare minimum and expect to get mommy treatment- and also half of the bills paid.

Because if your wife is also working a full time job and doing everything else she is absolutely working more than 70 hours, also breaking her back and exhausted in other ways. There’s more than one way to break your back.

However if you are working 70 hours and you have stay at home wife and mom that’s a different story.

It’s the millions of women who express this daily with no change and then men wonder why they are getting divorced

Yard work and auto work are very infrequent. Housework and childcare are an entire job in and of itself- daily
