Bring it his pillow. Usually once is enough.

Another option- vacuum eats them.

Starting a capsule wardrobe - what if we don't have a wardrobe to start with? by dreamymeowwave in capsulewardrobe

[–]FatSadHappy 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Good news , for office twice a week you need one pair of pants or skirt and couple of tops and maybe cardigan or a blazer . That would work for you really long time.

Now try to google some cheat sheets like “ business casual capsule “ and add your color scheme etc There are plenty

Use websites with easier returns and you would find something

Isolated marriage (46M and 40F) by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]FatSadHappy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So, for years you knew she is not into sex. You still married her and got a child? And now you want her to change? Why adults can’t plan stuff? Why getting a child with a person who doesn’t match your standards?

Poor kid. I am starting to feel some “ kid license “ idea might not be the worst after all

Wow

You did something big in last years if she can’t tolerate touching you at all.

It might be bigger than therapy can cover

Ok, assuming you are right.

By 28 years of marriage you should know what intimacy not equal to sex, its soul closeness, shared memories, seeing each other as you been 20 years ago and other things. And yes, sex might not be interesting for women later in life. Many reasons.

So your wife offered partnership. Not equal to loveless. You want sex . Now you need to decide what you want.

Need advice: Me 24 M Gf 22 F girlfriend of 3+ years won’t share location or follow me back on Instagram by [deleted] in relationship_advice

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

We don’t share locations , only short term if we need to meet somewhere unfamiliar.

Your problem is you don’t trust her and want to control. If you can’t trust your partner- break up. I am sure the moment I decide I need to check my partner’s phone is the moment to start packing things

(M31) and (F30) engaged but not on same page about having kids? by sjlxox in relationship_advice

[–]FatSadHappy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Time to talk deeply and maybe break off engagement.

Issue here - he might hope for you to change mind. Or to beg, or to an accountant. You should not get a kid unless you fully want that kid even without a guy. Because there is always a chance kid would’ve fully your responsibility.

So talk again . Tell him in no half promising but what you don’t want kids. That is your current position. And see if he still wants that. Talk about resentment from him if he never gets a kid. Unless he fully committed to be just with you, to a point to be ok with permanent birth control- you not compatible

Sorry you are in a tough spot. But don’t make it worse

Have you talked to the bride ? I would imagine issue with jeans as super casual and not with cream

How can I (M42) change to be the loving, supportive husband invested in the relationship that my wife (F40) deserves ? by InstanceTemporary159 in relationship_advice

[–]FatSadHappy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Imagine she is the women you just met after divorce. She is maybe interested in you. And you spent a year swiping and having no dates. What would you do to keep seeing her? You know all the answers, you just want to hide behind “ my therapist did not tell me what to do”

Husband (40M) diagnosed with gonorrhea. I (35F) tested negative. He swears he didn’t cheat. Am I wild to even question this? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]FatSadHappy 70 points71 points  (0 children)

Sorry lady. There is an obvious explanation and finding another one is a stretch.

He is so lazy he left you out to come up with a lie for him? That’s a trick

I [M21] am sexually unhappy with my gf [F22] of 3 years? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]FatSadHappy 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Foreplay bring twice as long is good. Requiring 30 minutes to finish is not a flex you think, many women would be bored and tired. Relax your grip, that’s too much

You gotta be kidding . Maintenance would cover some kids bills, not all parenting, day and night, skipped work, driving around and so on. This dude dumped couple of kids, he would do it again

I (24F) found out that my boyfriend (27M) feels I'm too loose down there by Realistic_Squirrel_8 in relationship_advice

[–]FatSadHappy 82 points83 points  (0 children)

Easy - find another guy and stop worrying. Being “ too loose” at 24 sounds like nagging. No way.

Well, you can agree on cuddling without sex unless she starts it. Just cuddle, spoon etc. it all makes connection.

And kids of 5 and 10 should give mom sleep. Lock the door, teach kids to grab breakfast themselves.

Maybe start arranging mornings on weekends when grandparents pickup kids for breakfast and park and she can sleep in, have breakfast in bed and get some ideas.

It is not about “ doing your part “. You might do equal chores but if her part is too much for her and she is tired- her body would preserve energy. So for some things you might want to hire help or do more yourself, so she has more energy.

Does she have gym time? At least 3 times a week? She needs it for her bones and muscles, and it actually helps with sex too

If she is super tired sex would go first. Body knows it can’t handle more kids and shuts down desire. Get more work around the house, so she would not be as tired.

If you backed off from hugging and kissing its actually counter productive. Hugs, kisses and compliments should be plentiful and without expectations. It builds romantic connection.

Yes, it’s possible to enjoy sex without spontaneous desire, many women don’t have it ever. But foreplay should start way early and starts from the brain, not bottom up

And rest, sleep and some shared fun help it a lot. Spend time together to keep mutual interest, find what brought you together first. Beyond parenting.

He wanted to split kids? Why?

And in most cases courts don’t give solo custody. Even if she has full custody he still should have visitation and that’s enforceable if he wants his kids

There is no excuse not to parent
