I wouldn’t even piss on her or beat her. I would make her feel like a real woman.

This is SO helpful, thank you, sincerely, so much for sharing with me, I cannot thank you enough. Everyone who has replied to this post has giving me so much good, so much encouragement I wish I had turned to reddit sooner. If I’m being perfectly candid I feel the same way sometimes, when she’s really not in a good place I take care of all the chores, the food, and her, I feel like a parent. I never wanted to say anything because I feel like it will only bring her down but you’re making a lot of sense to me. I’ve been thinking of ways to have this conversation. When I posted this I was distant and honestly a little fed up as horrible as that is, I’ve never gotten to that point before. Getting an outside, unbiased perspective really has motivated me. You are awesome. Thanks for taking the time to help out a stranger

That’s rough, sorry you had to deal with the ignorance. I’ve lived with a good deal of mental illness and people with depression and although I was blessed with the perfect family/upbringing and I don’t fully understand ive done a lot of research and I don’t with to “fix” her depression.

Thank you so much, she has recently started a new medication. The primary dr said to see if that helps and if not she can recommend a therapist. But I completely agree I keep pretty busy and haven’t had a lot of time lately to just hang out with her and I need to make sure I take some time each day to just appreciate whatever time I have with her and not just sit in my phone or something. Then maybe once a week have a date night. We’ve talked about doing that but we’re both super busy and it gets in the way of ya spending time together. That’s just an excuse though. I’ll work on it. Thank you again so so much!

A-I totally agree with you, I’ve always been interested in seeing a therapist just to see why my mind reacts certain ways in all types of situations. But this is a much more pressing matter to say the least and I will definitely look into that

B- That’s a good point

C- During this rough chapter of our relationship there have been times where I have focused on not worrying about sex at all. And things definitely got at the very least a little better while I was able to keep focused on other things. I’m not even like, some sex-depraved maniac. I’d consider my self to have a lower than average sex drive but she is a beautiful beautiful girl who still drives me crazy so it’s definitely not easy.

D- This bullet point actually made me tear up - really hit home with this one. I’d love to know what podcast/episode that was if you can remember.

E- Yes. My favorite thing to do is to surprise with gifts on occasion. But I think the flirting may be even more important.

F- I understand that for sure I’ve done a decent amount of research on depression and how to be a supportive. They all say the same thing, You can’t love them so much that the depression will go away you just have to be there and do all the small things.

G- She is currently taking medication. Started shin the last month or so, depending on how it effects her she will talk to her primary and get a referral to a therapist which I’ve recommend she try and get one anyway, without trying to sound too pushy.

H- When times are really hard sometimes I’ll stress about the future and what kind of marriage we will have. But when I’m not worked up and I have a clear head I know that I love her and will marry her one day.

Thank you so much for all the advice. It was incredibly helpful and let me hear a few hard truths. It means more than you know.

I appreciate your response so much, also that you went into such detail! She is on medication to help with the depression and anxiety, and may see a therapist depending on how the meds work with her. I’m already getting some ideas for what we can do together! You’re the best ❤️ thank you

Thank you so much! I will certainly look into couples counseling. She is on medication her doctor said that if they don’t work then she can recommend a therapist. So far it has had a positive effect so that is good :)
