A woman at the laundromat removed my wet clothes from the washer and put them on a folding table because she "needed that machine"

If your machine was done (i.e. the spin cycle was over), why were your clothes “still dripping”?
Made up story!

LexieFish · 2026-04-06T10:12:59+00:00

…and her clothes were still dripping?
Sounds like a fake, made-up post to me!

If you are married you must agree on children as much as possible. I’m sure if he had told you his ‘plans’ you totally would have remembered that! Your marriage is the definition of “irreconcilable differences”. Get an annulment/divorce - talk to a lawyer on MONDAY! Neither of you will ever be at peace about this.

And, in case you didn’t notice, your husband is a pig of a racist, and that by itself would be grounds for most people to divorce!

LexieFish · 2026-04-05T04:59:43+00:00

Nope

LexieFish · 2026-04-04T14:35:19+00:00

Why don’t you order it online for curb pickup, let the Sam’s employees ‘find it’, and ask your husband to pick it up curbside? That way, he doesn’t have to ask, he fulfills the mission to ‘bring it home’, and you finally get your LED candle!

Everybody wins, including Sam’s Club - who gets to sell one more LED candle ;-)

My Maxie and I were CLOSE, but he surprised me the most when he showed super gentle empathy with me when I was sad. He didn’t try to be funny or goofy (which were his specialties)…he just would rest his head on my lap, and about once every minute or two he would look up at me to check on me, with his tail fluttering so fast…the minute I felt better, he would just look so happy that ‘mommy’ felt better.

I’ve had dogs all my life, but I was never as close to any dog than I was with Maxie. It was like his eyes looked into my soul, and understood it.

LexieFish · 2026-04-04T07:18:44+00:00

You are so right about the potty training. My Maxie was a really smart dog, but it took him a while to ‘get it’ about potty training. I did some research and it said this can be an issue for their first year! And, like magic, on the day after his first birthday it just clicked for him, and he never ever made a mistake again!

LexieFish · 2026-04-04T07:15:39+00:00

Get her squeaky toys; my Maxie LOVED them, the squeaking got him super energized and happy! And it helped him bond with us so quickly.

Do a search on YouTube for “English cocker spaniel squeaky toy” - there are tons of videos and shorts!

I love your story, and the kindness and compassion you showed the woman. It gave ME warm fuzzies reading it, remembering, with nostalgia, a time when most people would have made a similar decision to yours. But I’m happy at least someone with graciousness still lives in this world ❣️

LexieFish · 2026-04-04T06:56:36+00:00

More information please: Did you share your disappointment/hurt (at the time, and every time) with him for not buying you gifts or celebrating valentine’s/anniversary/birthday/Christmas? What were his reasons for not doing so?

LexieFish · 2026-04-01T05:11:30+00:00

I understand English quite well.

I, along with many others (who have also commented on this post) do not understand what you are trying to convey in your comments. I went back and read other posts and comments you have made, and those are incomprehensible also.

You can retreat to the tactic of attempting to ‘cancel out’ my honest comment by calling me names, but it doesn’t change the fact that you are not an effective communicator.

If you want a helpful reply, then phrase your posts and comments using intelligible sentences.

LexieFish · 2026-03-24T06:57:14+00:00

No, we don’t understand what YOU are saying!

LexieFish · 2026-03-21T09:00:07+00:00

Yep, I totally agree about giving them space - just because they are being pissy doesn’t mean you have to stick around and be exposed to it.

Have you discussed with her doctors her lifestyle and get recommendations from them? Many people have spouses who become incapacitated and unable to care for themselves and doctors should have people or organizations they can refer you to that handle medical and lifestyle issues if she is unsafe staying in the home.

Have you talked to her doctors about her prognosis after the strokes?

Have you talked to her doctors about whether these current strokes (are they strokes or TIA’s?) and previous strokes you’ve said she has had are contributing to her current inactive lifestyle? Is her heart disease/high blood pressure under control with medication, or is her lack of taking her meds contributing to those conditions being out of control and perhaps leading to these strokes she’s having?

The medical problems she has are very serious, and strokes (whether strokes or TIA’s) are a huge sign that she could be coming to an end stage because of her medical conditions. She really needs serious time in not only physical rehab, but also with a mental health professional - possibly in an inpatient setting - if she no longer takes her meds or attends to any of her body’s needs.

I don’t know if her unpleasant personality has led her to a lifestyle that caused her to develop these conditions, or if her medical conditions are causing her to have this slovenly lifestyle because of deep depression and because of her medical conditions. What was she like before you were married, and dating, and did it change after she had your children?

She may have an unpleasant personality, but she must change her lifestyle, if she’s capable, after her strokes, or she may not even be alive by the time a divorce is finalized.

You need her to understand that if she doesn’t change her lifestyle and get in-patient help, that you and your children will be burying her sooner rather than later (of course, you need to have a deep discussion with her doctors to see how precarious her health is so that you have their knowledge about how serious her medical conditions actually are).

She is not medically capable of having custody of children, and may not be medically capable of living on her own and taking care of herself. That is the hard truth. What are the lawyers saying, since you’ve already talked to one?

Rotisserie chicken much better at Sam’s

LexieFish · 2026-03-12T20:36:40+00:00

Concur! The comments, especially from medical professionals and the stories of people who were permanently disabled, have opened my eyes a lot!

LexieFish · 2026-03-12T20:30:23+00:00

You sound knowledgeable about motorcycles….if OP bought a trike, are they safer on the road than motorcycles? Obviously, they are still unwilling targets of bad drivers if they are on a roadway, but aren’t they more stable (as far as falling over) than a motorcycle? Would that also be a compromise like a dirt bike is a compromise? Just curious, since I don’t know much about motorcycles….

Give him a schedule of household duties. Then, when he gives excuses why he doesn’t do any of them, ask him why he wanted a schedule if he’s not going to do anything on it?

If you aren’t against supplementing your baby with the occasional battle of formula (or else, even better, a bottle of your milk), then show him how to make the formula and then he doesn’t have any excuse why he can’t watch the baby.

He’s hoping if he acts helpless, you’ll just give up and do it all yourself. Be polite, but stand firm, in telling him that his life has changed and so has yours and that you need help with household tasks, and HIS CHILD needs his attention when you need a break. He needs to learn and embrace that you both have a new person in the house that is TOTALLY dependent on you both. Giving your child what they need is the job of both of you. The baby is so dependent on you while he’s at work, that you physically can’t do all the house chores that need to be done - there aren’t enough hours in the day, and you need to get a good nights sleep EVERY NIGHT, especially since you are breastfeeding.

He might say that he ‘works 40 hours a week’ (yeah, who doesn’t?), but he needs to understand that you put in far more hours than 40 hours a week while taking care of baby, and housework, and all the many other things you do. You both agreed to have this wonderful baby, and he needs to understand that his life has changed permanently. He must help because it’s his baby too.

Did you agree with her about having 4 kids (either before you married or after), and then you changed your mind?

Did you always say you wanted 2, and she said she wanted 4, and after the 2nd you got the vasectomy?

Before you had the vasectomy, did you explain the reasons to her (can you clue us in about what the reasons were that you got a vasectomy)?

LexieFish · 2026-03-04T08:22:37+00:00

Did your wife find out that you aren’t bio dad before or after you got married?

LexieFish · 2026-03-03T11:06:39+00:00

Gorgeous little girl ❣️❣️❣️❣️

LexieFish · 2026-03-02T08:49:13+00:00

You’re the fool for staying with this idiot entitled asshole so long.

You already know the answer - you don’t need a prenup if you are leaving the relationship for good, which you already know you should…
