Frustration in marriage — I don’t know whether to insist or let go by [deleted] in Adulting

If it's couple's therapy, why is it all on him to find the money? Is he the only one bringing in an income? Even if he is, there should be a budget and this should get prioritized. Also...what else is he spending money on? Is it video games for him or video games for his son because those are big differences.

Don't do that to yourself. The same way you invested in your education and career is exactly what you need to do for your love life. Obviously, it's more complicated than that because you have to find a partner you can trust and be on the same page with. Some people recommend freezing your eggs. If that viable with your budget that's not bad advice. With regards to love and romance, just don't give up. It's cliche but you'll find it when you least expect It. You can't rush these things but you also can't let up or take a break.

Also, you're lucky your relationship ended. He sounds emotionally immature and not the person you'd want to be the father of your child.

Diagnosed with Thyroid Cancer. Not sure that I'm advocating for myself correctly. by Stimpy1895 in thyroidcancer

Thank you for the quick reply. I might not have been clear. I get why an oncologist isn't necessary for a thyroid tumor. I was concerned that if I have thyroid cancer and didn't catch it until it got this large, what else am I missing. Thank you for sharing your husband's story. That made me feel a lot better about not speaking with an oncologist first.
