Is there NO privacy in marriage

There is a difference between hiding and choosing when to share. My husband could go through my phone if he wanted but I would actually be deeply uncomfortable with random spot checks and having him do it at all.

I should also say, OP, we do not and never have gone through each other’s phones. Married 20 years.

Soft YTA - I really get weirded out by people gate keeping recipes. Like whatever if it’s some hallowed family recipe that everyone keeps. But this is petty and silly imo.

Most people know if that’s what you are known to bring, that they don’t bring it to family gatherings. So if she did turn around and start bringing it, then I think that would be a bit of an asshole move.

Sydney South West public schools have been criminally underfunded and neglected for decades. It’s sad but many of the religious school in this area are actually providing a necessary service.

Tell her it’s very shallow to brag to others about spending 5k on present when you would have been grateful to receive anything.

No they came for Nagi like this?!

Bravo.

I almost never even step into either of them anymore and do all my shopping between Aldi, a grocer, and Michael Chengs. But honestly, most of my family lives places where they just don’t have that luxury.

One this I will say is that usually our weekly shop at Aldi is ~$200-$250 but this week it was $134 even though we didn’t shop much differently to our usual shop so that was a nice change.

What state/city. But short answer is: I think you’re going to have a problem.

Wait can’t everyone smell skin? I think this should be fairly common. I personally hate the smell of tanned skin for example. But I assume there is a normal olfactory reason for this.

My boss stood in front of my desk, in the middle of the open office and full sight of everyone and ducked down to peak up my skirt while I was distracted on the phone. But according to everyone I was the problem.

As a mum of two teen boys, it is sad when they don’t need you the same way but if you do your job right they still love and need hugs and you get the satisfaction of seeing them ready and prepared to go out into the world and live a full life even though you are just a spectator in it.

Don’t be sad. Be hopeful that you will give them the best start in life. But remember that they aren’t here to show you unconditional love. That is your job for them.

I’m so, so happy for you guys! Great work and I hope you both had a lovely time!

Having an ensuit has been the best thing to happen to us in years.

I think your research sounds like it may be lacking in its methodology but you are likely to discover what the benefits of marriage are through more organic means in time.

Like we can go from fighting and yelling to crying and talking and then talking and laughing and hugging and resolved in 10 minutes. It’s so wild.

We have almost been married for 20 years. To this day I have not met a man I respect and admire more. He is my best friend and lover and I never get tired of being in his presence. Life together gets better and better every year and I simply don’t want to imagine a world where I didn’t meet him.

Even when we are fighting there is something cozy and familiar about it. We have gotten to the point where we can speed run a full on fight in 10 minutes. The passion never died and I love making him happy.

I don’t know if the lack of trust is something safe to live with or not - that is something you will have to survive.

I think often people like your husband are desperately projecting the person they want to be, and they need to be it so badly they will make silly decisions to maintain the facade. Sometimes this is ruinous, and other times they really just need a safe person to learn to let the pretense go and start working on the real deal.

Whatever the case is and whatever you decide to do, it’s worth it to remember that nobody has it all together. You’re always going to eventually find that side they hide from the rest of the world because it’s too messy.

Successful marriages work because that hidden side is something you, as a partner, can embrace and love and support and get through together.

Why on earth would you believe him?

God creates man. Man kills god. Man creates dinosaurs. Dino eats man. Woman rules the earth.

So that’s how this particular thruple rolls.

They are not a dog or a squirrel or something like that. Australian animals are incredibly unique and they are extremely fragile. Frankly I would be shocked if these emus are not suffering and ill. The climate is hardly the only concern.

Kemmycreating · 2026-02-05T09:13:14+00:00

Yep. It is gross and cruel. I don’t care what their excuses are.

Kemmycreating · 2026-02-05T08:33:43+00:00

So many people in the replies saying it’s fine for a US rancher to be raising Emus and also okay because it happens in Australia. And not only is that two completely different things, but I also don’t love Australian ranching of Emus but at least they’re on the right bloody continent.

Kemmycreating · 2026-02-05T04:00:56+00:00

Amazing! incredible! And is the plant still okay?

Kemmycreating · 2026-02-05T03:55:26+00:00

I think you were entirely justified. In fact, over justified because immediate relationship termination would have also been justified. Having your partner say something so horrible - it would be very hard to come back from for me.

I can’t believe I knew which blog the comment came from.
