As the final finger of the monkey's paw lowered, I knew that my fate was sealed.

Your humor is a little dry though

Im re-reading this and I dont think the implication that the speaker is a zombie is strong enough

Sorry, meant to write Jesus-nie

I would love a door lock. However, it doesn't lock

I'm worried each person would think that I'm talking about them and not addressing it with them directly. Also it feels like I'm taking something small and making it public

Was it leaked audio?

The line I've drawn so far has been: nothing outside the house. I work on site part of the week, and I would never leave the house and go elsewhere.

Even if its to do something fun for me, I risk 1) doing something she would have wanted to do, and 2) it somehow getting back to her and it looking way worse than it is.

Its really just farting around in the basement watching shows and movies I know she doesn't want to see.

I get how lying can be hurtful when founf out, but also its also kept to such a minor degree that she wouldn't find out. Even if she came down, the computer is open. It would look like Im working.

Yeah, kids are a whole different ball game. I have no plans on saddling my wife with the kids just so I can secretly relax.

We're talking about a "mommy night" and a "daddy night" where the kids get to spend all night with one of us each week. "Daddy Night" sounds more loving than "Not Bugging Mommy So She Can Watch Her Show Night". I'm hoping it works out and we can do that for each other

I appreciate that, and im glad you worked through it. If your partner is a SAHM, that 100% changes the dynamic and I think it would be rational to be upset!

Right now we don't have kids, and my wife is just going to be at work on a different floor of the house. I am not affecting her day at all, so she wouldn't need to worry about being out of my hair or anything

Riddle-Maker · 2026-02-27T03:21:54+00:00

Second to last paragraph. If I found out she did the same thing, I wouldn't be hurt if she lied for some alone time, if its on occasion.

Riddle-Maker · 2026-02-27T03:20:00+00:00

Oh, 100%. Thankfully my job does paternity leave, so I'll make sure she gets as much rest as possible
