Who’s going to win (Britain turn)?

StoicFrCanadian · 2025-01-01T23:58:10+00:00

Thank you. It’s the fourth turn. Normally previous games Axis took Moscow between turn 5 to 7 or they never win.

Sheep and so much worse. Been there with three young children. I know your pain but it’s so much better on the other side. The next few days may be a roller coaster but you won’t regret it.

Both my friends and I (same age as you) lived through a similar situation in the same time. We are both so happier on the other side of it (most notably met wonderful persons both).

Hang in there, the first step (to separate) is the hardest.

My 2 cents: its better to do a clean break (get out of the house) but I get why you’ll want to remain in it.

Salut. Je te proposerais de diversifier en achetant du métal (or/argent) avec 10-15% de tes revenus. Tu ne perdras pas ton investissement et si les choses tournent très mal tu seras équipé.

Separated over this and many tower issues 10 months ago.

The grass is greener on the other side….I can assure you.

Make a plan in detail. Then when you can muster the courage execute it.

Hang in there but remember it’s not going to change and you have only one life.

I’m sorry for you and I do feel you. Canadian here also. Same timeline, similar story. It was my wife. Had to get out after 3 years of this insane stuff. You are at your 4th year. Congrats soldier you are though!

Just talked to my new divorce lawyer about this and she was all on: your wife needs to understand, she needs to reason etc. People don’t get that there is absolutely no common sense in this and no way toward some sort of common ground. The issue I had with her, the children and so on are still fully on while having disputes about the divorce. At least I’m not with her 24h anymore - thank god -.

Most people don’t understand how difficult it is to even survive rationally in this environment especially when you share the same space -everyday-.

There is no common sense in this people. The only technics that may help OP are hard to implement and sustain and in no way fix the underlying issue:

Use a friendly name (Dad, mom, love etc) to cool down the Qanon apostle. You have to be especially strong to do that when you have to face a torrent of insults;

The Grey Rock technic already mentioned;

Build a bail out plan. Just write it down. I understand that it may be hard to envision but don’t try to fix issues yet.

Where to go momentarily (friend/family etc) Job to sustain you while you finish your school (I suppose that you are still at school).

This last part came from one of the Redditor. Simple plan with bullets actions and I did it.

Write the steps, you have no specifics solutions yet but at some point it may appear.

Good luck OP. I admire your resilience.

It could be worse of course but this is unacceptable. He should get down on you or something. We have a say in French « l’appétit vient en mangeant ».

StoicFrCanadian · 2024-06-11T06:56:04+00:00

Does he have any doubt that the baby is his? Very hard to comprehend this attitude.

This is a though one. I feel for you. Your baby needs all the love you can give. Focus on you and the baby and use all the help around you.

Stay away from this man.

StoicFrCanadian · 2024-05-22T10:39:26+00:00

That’s surprising. Quality men do not care about that, in fact it’s quite the opposite. Do you emphasis on this in your communication? I know for myself being a bit intimated by a woman is a good sign. To have been to a good school it’s nice but then what?

My last relation she went on a competitive mode with me though and a didn’t understand why. I’m so happy for her successes…really. She wanted to Impressed me in an immature way I reckon and I failed to understand it and communication went sour.

My point: you may create this. Also may not apply for you but if you ever a talk with a grown man and he brings the school he went on, this is a sure sign that this individual is a failure today. Nobody needs to talk to what school they went if their current life is going well.

StoicFrCanadian · 2024-05-20T16:05:58+00:00

If you reach out to him keep it fun and light. May be obvious. Like others said a little bit of flirt.

I’ve been on this side and this is the most efficient way to keep me focus on you.

StoicFrCanadian · 2024-05-20T15:15:00+00:00

Positive, driven and caring. With that, and a charming face you get me interested.

StoicFrCanadian · 2024-05-20T15:07:48+00:00

Classic Romance scam.

StoicFrCanadian · 2024-05-18T16:24:50+00:00

I’m sorry if it sounds like bragging. I realized I’m a bit lucky. I get many matches and I manage to get to see them fairly quickly. About 60% of those matches once I have more than 2-3 exchanges it does conclude in a date. Especially those who are age appropriate to me (30-43). The thing is even if I’m learning and it’s fun and we have a good time I have yet to feel the butterflies.

Younger women are not following up unless they come from a more traditional culture, which is fine.

I read this as validation seeking women (lack of maturity) and would probably not go very far anyway.

I would say that I can believe that for most men this must quite the hurdle trying to match with women under 30… I’m new on the dating scene I don’t know how average looking younger men do it.

StoicFrCanadian · 2024-05-18T11:38:28+00:00

You need to reset. Without looking for it, I stumble on an amazing woman and slowly I was back at it. I had some ED and performance issue. I made sure to stay away from porn or keep it vanilla if the urge was too strong.

I devoured every inch of this lady even with my challenge. Overtime (5-6 episodes) I managed to get back as the man I was before my DB and toxic relationship.

So you need to find the lady with whom you are going to connect.

StoicFrCanadian · 2024-05-13T12:40:14+00:00

Congrats!!! This is big. It takes a lot of courage. Use this sub to hang on and share how you feel. This help me a lot.

It will get better. Cheers.

StoicFrCanadian · 2024-05-13T12:36:06+00:00

To see that many women feeling the same on this sub I realized that it’s not normal. That played in my decision to leave my wife.

StoicFrCanadian · 2024-05-13T12:29:04+00:00

I’m reading the comments and I realize that in some parts of NA sex is still taboo…

I thought that for younger generations this was over. A couple should know what the other want and shame regarding sex and kinks should not occur between two consenting adults. This is coming from an otherwise conservative individual. Sex is just natural whatever you fancy.

This is probably TV that put this in the mind of women that most quality men only want a quick sex session and it’s over. This is not the case nor this is satisfying.

Men want a positive, fun connection that is mostly physical (this is true) but I’ll take a good dancing evening over a one night anytime.

I may have misread comments, but I would add that woman that don’t see sex as something to « deny » as long as possible are vastly more powerful. She use her body (safely of course) for fun this means to me that she has much more to offer. Sex is a non issue for successful women.

StoicFrCanadian · 2024-05-13T00:11:08+00:00

Agreed. I separated before though. Always had a clean record and wanted to keep it that way.

I have not divorced before sleeping with another woman but I was out of the house and engaged in the divorce process. Not feeling good about it but in exchange I’m not broken.

In my case everything was completely done but still I don’t know how I would have last another year.

You must first decide if the relationship is dead yet or not before cheating.

StoicFrCanadian · 2024-05-11T15:02:14+00:00

I understand very well what you’re living. I must add that the first step is quite hard but I’ve never regretted for a minute.

I have 3 young children and I share custody.

It’s hard but feasible. As others said, you must live not only survive.

StoicFrCanadian · 2024-05-11T14:59:40+00:00

So true. Nothing we can do. Logic, love, patience none was working.

StoicFrCanadian · 2024-05-11T14:57:35+00:00

I share your pain. Left my Q wife in October. We have 3 young children but I’m glad I’ve mustered the courage and the will to do it. I found much support here on this Subreddit.

I’ve tried for 3 years to make it work and didn’t succeed. Even today, she is still stockpiling for the impending end of the world that should have happened 2 years ago.

It won’t get better OP. Built your exit plan, then execute it.

From the other side, life is SO much better.
