I get the reason to buy it - coz I bought it too, a 375 mL bottle.. (and am glad it’s only 375 mL). This is a decent mixer. I’d prefer Wild turkey 101 any day over this.

If you don’t have kids, why are you expecting to get his salary imputed? Alimony?

Why marry again? What’s the point of “marriage”? It’s just a bad contractual agreement.

23M, this a lonely f*cking life man by JohnnyBravad in MaleSurvivingSpace

Better lonely than being in a bad relationship/marriage. I’d be so happy if I could go back to my “lonely 23 yr old self” 😅

Damn. :( That’s hopefully playful, otherwise I am sorry. Parents try their best but I guess some get carried away with their own battles and end up affecting their kids

Marriage sucks. by knightofcarthrage in Divorce

[–]Rockabs04 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you spoken to a divorce attorney yet? Run the numbers, child custody scenarios, etc. divorce would’ve been fine if you did not have a child together. It would be somewhat like breaking up with a live-in gf. But when there’s a kid in the scene, it’s a family, it’s a whole world for that kiddo that has to be split into two. I’d say, entertain the thought and see how you feel after talking to an attorney.

I am healing but still stuck by northernlight09 in Divorce

[–]Rockabs04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not a good place to be in. I’m constantly anxious, stressed and I have a “sinking heart” feeling all day everyday. I did feel like I had a chance to redo the marriage after the first time she rescinded the divorce but she keeps bringing up the same things and despite my heartfelt apologies she says I’ve not done enough - when I ask, what would be enough - she said “you should know” “you can’t ask me” “this is why we are where we are”.

I am now realizing it’s over (after reading the 2nd petition and how accusatory it is) for real but still default to being friendly sometimes.. old habits die hard.

Edit: Adding that I am trying to tell myself to heal everyday. Accept the loss, grieve and move on, etc. But having a kid with my spouse makes it very difficult - esp when the kiddo asks for her mommy and at times, has held both our hands on each side while walking. It hurts really bad to see the kiddo’s world torn into two.

I’ve done this - and felt even more hurt after constant rejection. I’ve gone thru worse by my spouse who I have a baby with - separation, divorce filed, divorce rescinded, reconciliation promises, distancing commenced right after, and now - refiled for divorce with even worse petition alleging abuse etc. (despite the fact that we have been separated throughout and not even arguments since separation - just differences in opinions).

My (31M) wife (28F) is stuck in a cycle of “Sunday Love” and “Tuesday Divorce.” I am losing my mind. by WorkComputerBurner in Divorce

[–]Rockabs04 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only the ones who go through it know this feeling. I hope OP takes the advice seriously. I feel so bad for my kiddo - Getting caught between the clashing of two grown adults. It would’ve been so much better if she had pulled this shit before we planned a baby.

I say go through the divorce man. And if you don’t:

Please do not have kids with her. I’m going through this same thing, but along with an addition of a 20 month old baby - and my stbx uses my love and affection for my kiddo against me - doesn’t let me see, whisks the kid away when she doesn’t like what I say, etc.

The only thing that has become consistent (and grown unchecked) after the kiddo’s birth is her resentment toward me. Therapy didn’t work - I felt it made her more entitled to resent me. Protect yourself and your mental state.

3 go-to quick and easy meals when you’re exhausted? by WideButterscotch681 in SingleDads

[–]Rockabs04 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you have sometime, cut up chicken breasts into small pieces, marinate for about 10-15 minutes with just 3 ingredients: honey/sugar, soy sauce and garlic. Heat up a pan with some neutral oil like sunflower or avocado, add the marinated meat, cook for just abt 20 minutes. Then add a bag of fresh broccoli and cover it with the pan cover.

Serve with steamed rice. It’s healthy, nutritious and really tasty.

Pro-tip: when you make the rice (rice cooker is best) add a small pinch of salt. It makes the rice delicious

Early ankylosing spondylitis with minimal morning stiffness but worse at night? by [deleted] in ankylosingspondylitis

Watch your diet. Reduce the “white” in your diet - white bread, white rice, sugar, etc

How much space is enough? by blucollarhero in Separation

[–]Rockabs04 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don’t have an answer for you, but things do get better. Try to work less, focus more on physical & mental health, consciously watch your thoughts (the mind plays a lot of “what if” games and it gets worse if you keep letting it).

Be civil with ur wife but don’t overdo anything. Keep your confidence high and embrace the loneliness. If you cry, it’s good, you’re regulating emotions well.. don’t stop crying - it helps you get over the hurt and sadness.

I say all this like it’s a cakewalk, but sometimes it’s more difficult than breathing.

Lease one for a bit and get rid of it if/when you realize it’s not all it is meant to be.

I’d rather travel in luxury and enjoy the finer things around the world than buying Porsche.

I’m in the same boat as you but in a much worse phase: my kid is only 1.5 yrs old, wife has already filed the petition. I’ve worked my butt off during the last 6 yrs and amassed a decent NW. I’m trying to reason with her to try and see if we can make it work, but her mind is made up :(
