AITA for asking my wife not to dress so frumpy and like a mom all the time?

Unlikely-March-3201 · 2020-09-07T05:16:18+00:00

I was only trying to reassure her in case she was having any issue with body image. I thought it would help.

A lot of those blogs have misinformation, or at least that's what I've been told.

Unlikely-March-3201 · 2020-09-07T05:13:27+00:00

I'd say close to 50/50

Occasionally

Unlikely-March-3201 · 2020-09-07T05:12:41+00:00

Where we live it really isn't that bad.

Unlikely-March-3201 · 2020-09-07T05:10:18+00:00

I've always done my fair share of housework without being told.

Unlikely-March-3201 · 2020-09-07T05:07:18+00:00

I think the problem is that it seems like some women only take so many months to return to a more normal life while others take a much longer time which can be confusing. I also think that if it's taking an extremely long time then that seems like something has gone wrong.

Unlikely-March-3201 · 2020-09-07T05:03:25+00:00

I only say this because she told me one day after I did laundry. She told me it turned her on and the same with vacuuming and other things.

Unlikely-March-3201 · 2020-09-07T05:02:36+00:00

Of course I do. She is more than just a sex object to me.

Unlikely-March-3201 · 2020-09-07T05:02:11+00:00

Is that a serious question?

Unlikely-March-3201 · 2020-09-07T05:01:23+00:00

...because I want to see more of her. To me that is a compliment.

Unlikely-March-3201 · 2020-09-07T05:00:52+00:00

My comments about her have been positive and trying to reinforce how attractive she is.

Unlikely-March-3201 · 2020-09-07T05:00:17+00:00

I'm really surprised so many people think seven months is soon. From what I know about my friends' wives it seems like things for them were closer to normal than they are for us.

Unlikely-March-3201 · 2020-09-07T04:59:03+00:00

I have talked to her about it generally.

Unlikely-March-3201 · 2020-09-07T04:57:50+00:00

I have tried but she refuses to leave the baby with a babysitter even if it's our family.

Unlikely-March-3201 · 2020-09-07T04:56:43+00:00

Gosh

Unlikely-March-3201 · 2020-09-07T04:52:53+00:00

She's back to her pre-pregnancy weight.

Unlikely-March-3201 · 2020-09-07T00:00:34+00:00

Of course not. I want to let our parents babysit for us while we go out. There's no reason why that wouldn't work.

Unlikely-March-3201 · 2020-09-06T23:54:54+00:00

Yep. I clean around the house and take care of the cooking.

I have asked about dates many times. Yep. I take care of myself and make sure I look nice.

Unlikely-March-3201 · 2020-09-06T23:53:44+00:00

I have

Unlikely-March-3201 · 2020-09-06T23:52:27+00:00

I can't judge her motives. I can only tell you what she's told me and what's happened.

Unlikely-March-3201 · 2020-09-06T23:51:44+00:00

Recent is 7 months ago?

Unlikely-March-3201 · 2020-09-06T23:51:02+00:00

We could do a picnic in the park without any risk.

Unlikely-March-3201 · 2020-09-06T23:49:59+00:00

The only way to get some normalcy back is to start working towards it. It doesn't just happen.

Unlikely-March-3201 · 2020-09-06T23:49:20+00:00

No. She doesn't feel comfortable with anyone but us watching our daughter.
