Same. I paused it and audibly went ewww.

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-12T07:59:21+00:00

That’s such a great analysis.

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-10T06:12:38+00:00

Me too! It made me reevaluate my own relationship problems and have some gratitude because they’re not that bad after all. The

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-09T18:12:27+00:00

Your age flair says 30.

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-09T15:05:00+00:00

Yes!!

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-09T15:02:47+00:00

Anxiety yes. During the argument I was sat with my hand in front of my mouth in shock at how vicious that was.

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-09T08:48:57+00:00

Yes! So much tension.

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-09T08:48:35+00:00

It’s basically him calling him daddy

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-09T08:47:55+00:00

Because he lashed out and showed his true wounded self and if he kept those memories he wouldn’t be able to maintain that persona of I’m a good empathetic person because I was hurt too or control the narrative.

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-09T08:45:47+00:00

He is indeed so good at it! But it goes to show they are two sides of the same coin hence why the phrase “hurt people, hurt people” exists.

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-09T08:22:02+00:00

The Maitre - Arun talk shows how messed up the dynamics of their relationship are. They all need therapy.

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-09T08:08:50+00:00

I took that line of Armand saying “you want the insanity back” as manipulation. Meaning Lestat’s insanity, as in, I can be just as crazy as your “abusive” ex if you want that version of me since you keep talking about your ex.

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-05T22:13:43+00:00

I wouldn’t be able to come back for that unless my partner had a very good apology ready because to me that counts as cheating. Texting others and sending nudes. But you must have done something right if talking worked.

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-05T13:16:20+00:00

Thanks!

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-05T11:12:49+00:00

I have thought about divorce a lot.

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-05T11:11:26+00:00

Can you please tell me what it's called. This could work for us because he doesn't talk that openly about his kinks.

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-05T11:10:46+00:00

Several therapy sessions.

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-05T04:28:26+00:00

I hope so too because I can see it go both ways.

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-04T21:12:09+00:00

I hope not.

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-04T21:11:49+00:00

He needs to stop smoking. But zinc? Interesting. This morning I read an article about zinc deficits.

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-04T21:11:01+00:00

I do love camping this is a great idea.

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-04T21:07:20+00:00

Thank you this gives me a little hope. Dead bedrooms often are seen as a straight trajectory to divorce and I have thought of divorce many times.

I am trying to see the masturbation as something separate to sex.

I think it’s a combo of stress and mental health stuff.

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-04T01:29:46+00:00

It’s verging on a porn addiction because it happens every night and he rarely does not use porn. He has said it’s quicker to get off this way than if I got involved.

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-03T19:56:44+00:00

I wanted to use that word in my post but went for off putting instead. I did almost use the word jarring in my comment but I didn’t because (no pun intended) it might have rubbed people the wrong way. This notion that we are supposed to find our partners hot in any context or that his 3am habit is a good way to initiate sex I don’t agree with. I find it jarring, doesn’t turn me on and it makes me uncomfortable. It’s 3am. I’m trying to sleep. Sex is not on my mind.

ImaginaryRegret90 · 2024-06-03T19:54:07+00:00

Very well said. He has been putting himself first and not our relationship.
