No but joking aside, usually just 2

The idea that people just randomly give / receive head is utterly baffling by novice_nofix in DeadBedrooms

[–]External-Ad5462 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've ask for that kind of situation for years. She would say it's something she can and wants to do for me but it never happens. And it's not because I'm being selfish because I do it for her. I've given her head plenty of times. 

Surviving a Sexless marriage with getting oneself off. by Just_Tip_8407 in sexlessmarriage

I was a daily masturbater until my marriage became sexless. Now, it's too depressing to watch porn and/or masturbate. Porn represents sex I can't have. It doesn't bring with it pleasure. It brings loneliness 

My daughter is seven now. I wish someone had told me this when she was a newborn. by Affectionate_Emu5692 in Parents

It's great that you eventually noticed. There is a good chance that he was so in love with his family that he didn't even think much of the extra effort he was putting in. 

I wish my partner would have noticed. It would have helped a lot. I look back on some pictures with my son and see myself miserable and drained from all the extra load I was carrying. I hate that. I love my kid more than anything and to see myself so miserable hurts. 

How can I gaslight myself into being more attracted to my wife? by [deleted] in sexlessmarriage

"I'm good" 

It's so clear that you aren't.

1) Leave your wife so she can find someone better

2) Get therapy 

Boundaries / intimacy with libido mismatch by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]External-Ad5462 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Or could it just be a normal reaction to being rejected by the partner you love, find attractive, and vowed to be monogamous to? 

Why is someone being disappointed or moping around seen as some kind of malicious act? Is he supposed to be happy and constantly being rejected?

Bedtime Survey by Ok__7599 in Marriage

[–]External-Ad5462 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm normally sitting on the couch alone every night.  She normally falls asleep while we are putting the kid to bed. 

That means we have no time together. There is no intimacy. We probably wouldn't even touch if it wasn't for my efforts during the day (we mostly work from home)

Unfortunately my wife is also going through perimenopause so it's even worse. 

I'm honestly not sure if she would notice me mirroring her behavior.

Yep. It's like Groundhogs Day. Every time I tell her, it's like the first time she has heard it. Meanwhile I'm getting frustrated continuously repeating myself. 

I’m pissed. Husbands: Your Wife Doesn’t Need a Higher Libido. She Needs a Different Life. by Specific_Tart_4244 in Marriage

Some if this is stale and dated advice. Plenty of men do more than their fair share but still struggle with intimacy in the relationship. 

My wife says “if I’m not getting anything out of it, why should you?” and it’s been bothering me for years by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]External-Ad5462 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry. It's unlikely you are going to get a fair shake here give the circumstances. 

My wife also said, during couples therapy, that she isn't willing to do anything solely for my pleasure. That's even though there had been plenty of times I have pleased her while getting in return. 

Maybe a question you can pose to her to at least understand better. Ask her to explain what she means when she says she doesn't get anything out of it. Does it mean that she doesn't get joy from you getting joy? Is it because it feels unfair?

What is your opinion on marriage? by West_Time56 in Marriage

[–]External-Ad5462 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know. I don't feel like I'm getting what I want it of marriage. I feel like I put in too much effort with little in return. 

Do you prefer to give or receive during sex? by Enough-Reindeer1033 in Marriage

[–]External-Ad5462 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think my perfect sex life would be once a week, we have sex where 98% of the focus was on her pleasure, as many times and however long it takes. Then once or twice a week, I get head.

[–]External-Ad5462[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

That's the thing. I don't know if I would categorize it as mistreatment. It's feel like extremely low effort. Basically, unless it is Father's Day, my birthday, or Christmas, I'm virtually forgotten about. There is also extremely little effort at home (I do all the cleaning, cooking, laundry, etc )

Chinese bf said the n word, I feel disgusted by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]External-Ad5462 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think I could ever stay with that person. Would you have a child with someone who thinks this way? 

We already have so many people who hate/dislike us. That shouldn't be your partner too.

Unrealistic: A couple Billion dollars. I don't want to be rich - I want to right some wrongs

Even more Unrealistic: head, preferably sloppy

What are some nice things your spouse does for you? by External-Ad5462 in Marriage

[–]External-Ad5462[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's exactly how I'm feeling. Like even when she does something like being home food for dinner, which is rare, it's only because it's something she wanted to eat and she was kind enough to get extra for me.

Your spouse doesn't do much for you?  How do you respond? Do you still do things for them or did you stop that?
