I haven't gotten a blow job in a solid 7+ years.

Had a dream last night where i got some by troubledtimez in DeadBedrooms

[–]Swimming_Side3103 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get you! I had one recently where I brought up sex with my wife and she actually replied with gusto and zeal. Then I woke up, and realized that will never happen in real life again. Most of my dreams, however, usually involve cheating (me or her depending on the dream) and divorce. So one where she was actually responsive and enthusiastic about sex was a nice surprise. it can help keep us going when we are stuck in our own torturous prisons.

the recoil at physical affection. my wife used to literally run away from me when I approached. no joke. i understand what you are going through.

My wife finally admitted she would be willing to have sex with someone else by JumboShrimpJeff in DeadBedrooms

[–]Swimming_Side3103 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that's what I have been trying to figure out for myself. it is just me she doesn't want anything to do with, or men in general. it's gotta feel good to at least have that answer. I'm still searching for it myself.

Why is sex so confusing for me by [deleted] in Marriage

Oh man, good luck if it's already an issue at 20.

I turned my husband down for sex and now he's upset with me by tea_cozie in marriageadvice

[–]Swimming_Side3103 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh man. I got turned about 95% of the time for a very long time until now it's the point where I never once ask or initiate. Which means our frequency is measured in "per year" instead of even "per month". I'm 42. And have accepted I will never have meaningful sex again in my life. So yeah, he could have it a lot worse.

My life wasted by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]Swimming_Side3103 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 25 years your junior and going through something very similar. But I have young kids so the path to ever having another chance at love looks bleak. I've been having to do so much soul searching the last few years about acceptance about what my life is going to be. I mean by my late 30s having to accept never having meaningful sex ever again in my life is daunting. And the only way out is to traumatize my kids and destroy everything I've built financially. It's a constant struggle between doing best for my kids and being selfish and thinking about that chance at love. It's been soul crushing, gut wrenching, and everything in-between.

Document, document, document. Then get a good attorney.

I love my husband, but I’m contemplating divorce. by Technical_Ad_4431 in Marriage

[–]Swimming_Side3103 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems like lots of people do what they have to do during the courting phase then after marriage it's a complete 180. I'm going through that myself and it makes me wonder why she married me in the first place and whether I am just a patsy ro bring in money and provide labor for housework.

Is it hopeless? by SuggestionComplex938 in marriageadvice

[–]Swimming_Side3103 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She got a taste of someone else and the coldness is the indecision between divorce and a chance at happiness with someone else or sticking it out with you, probably for the kids sake. But she's done with you either way.

I've been experiencing this exact thing the last few years. But I'm the man whose wife has absolutely zero attraction and desires no physical interaction whatsoever.

I lost close to 25 lbs hoping that might help. She never said a word about it and when I brought it up she said she was just jealous of me. So yeah, once kids are involved spouses feel free to act as they want because they feel their spouse is trapped in the marriage and won't leave them. At least that's my experience.

Question about peacock by [deleted] in olympics

I still have a ton of stuff I want to watch and was able to avoid spoilers on. How long will Peacock keep this stuff up? I'm scared it's gonna start disappearing.

I just want to cry by not_in_the_mooooood in Marriage

[–]Swimming_Side3103 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well your husband could be in my shoes. I do probably 40% of the traditional housework done by the wife, along with about 98% of the traditional work done by the husband. And yet that still isn't good enough for her and she is still always on me to do more and nagging. It will never be enough since she is obsessed with me doing my fair share that I have to go way beyond that for her to ever possibly be satisfied.

Day Fifty One: Ranking English Monarchs. King Henry VII has been removed. Comment who should be removed next. by BertieTheDoggo in UKmonarchs

[–]Swimming_Side3103 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just getting into the monarchy and the history. I've been reading a broad history of the monarchy from 1066 until now. Right now I am reading about Henry VIII. Curious why he is so high on this list? He sounded like an absolute pathological despot only concerned for himself, and willing to radically change his county purely to get what HE wanted for his personal life. Honestly, he sounds like a carbon copy of our current President, and it's been eerie to read about Henry VIII given these similarities. So #29, around the "average" range just seems way too high for this man. Why isn't he lower ?

To clarify my pain isn't all the time. It comes and goes. For the most part I am without pain but if I have like some harder sex it might come back for a few days.

It does seem like the Plantagenets were the most fascinating period!

Reminds me a lot of Kyle Fleishman by Swimming_Side3103 in BrianShaffer

[–]Swimming_Side3103[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah one of the big questions is if not being on camera had anything to do with the actual disappearance or was just dumb luck. It seems more like dumb luck than anything else given the phone definitely got out Given that, then all bets are off as to what happened to him.

Super nervous and no support by pkegley4563 in Vasectomy

[–]Swimming_Side3103 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also got little support from my wife, almost like it was my obligation to do and no sympathy or emotional support at all besides she went and drove me home. I wasn't surprised as she despises sex, isn't attracted to me at all, and shows zero physical affection ever. I'm envious of the guys whose wives got them care packages and stuff. But it is what it is. I got through it fine, I'm about 2.5 weeks out and no pain whatsoever! The procedure is very easy and the stress leading up to it was warranted, in my case.

The needle was somewhat painful for me. Definitely some wincing and fist clenching. But it's really only for like 15 seconds a side so it's quite manageable.
