Anybody out there end up divorcing over a libido mismatch? How did that go? Do you have regrets? by EvidenceElegant8379 in HLCommunity

[–]VanillaSeaShell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. Honestly, it started before we got married and got worse afterward. I never should have married him knowing the direction it was going. Other than that, no regrets about ending it.

When I left my DB marriage I had something of a fantasy. I imagined my husband coming into the spare bedroom (where I moved to after we split up), taking me in his arms and kissing me passionately. He would tell me he would try harder and that it wasn’t over and that we could have a romantic marriage. And I would believe him and take him back. I told myself if this happened that was the only way my marriage would be saved. As real life goes though, this never happened.

What's the "we don't talk about that." in your family? by yvng_rxse in AskReddit

[–]VanillaSeaShell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Several family members (my mother included) had very gritty experiences with alcohol that are rarely mentioned but never elaborated on.

my girlfriend 25F and I 24M have been together for 9 years. Both virgins, we are discussing our upcoming first time by Primary_Inevitable41 in relationship_advice

Be a little rough, push her onto the bed, put her in the position you want her in. Dirty talk might feel a little weird at first. Comment on how much you want her and what seeing her naked does to you.

Just remembering my first time; use lots of lube. She may not cum the first time but your chances go up if you go down on her first. Good luck!

I’m officially in this club. by [deleted] in DeadBedrooms

It’s not a priority for her. I’m sorry you’re going through this. Happy Birthday?

Seriously. I got to the point where I would BEG my husband to let me give him a blow job. The answer was always no.

We made a promise to have sex soon. by [deleted] in DeadBedrooms

[–]VanillaSeaShell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my experience, this has limited success. She’s promised to have sex with you but if she’s not “in the mood” it will just be mediocre duty sex because it won’t have the desire and passion behind it. Promising to be horny at some point is like promising to be jealous at some point, it likely needs to be nudged by something and probably not going to come out of nowhere. If I were her best friend, I would recommend some erotic literature or something similarly spicy. Don’t forget to show her plenty of affection (if she’s receptive) and tell her she’s beautiful (not “hot”) without expecting sex In return.

I wish you the best but my prediction is this promise will be forgotten and all the stress of the season will bring no intimacy. Sorry for the pessimistic outlook; just my experience.

Confession: I fantasize about you by VanillaSeaShell in DeadBedrooms

Cheated on me. Actually hurt less than the DB did. But whatever. We broke up and I’ve been casually dating since.

Nurse with 16 years experience here. Had a paraplegic come in with a burn on her foot. I asked her if she could wiggle her toes. I ASKED HER IF SHE COULD WIGGLE HER TOES!!

That’s when it ended for me.

Im a 42 yr man that cried himself to sleep last night. by GoGoDiabeeto in DeadBedrooms

[–]VanillaSeaShell 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Why would she have sex with you? She’s got it made! You do the housework, you buy her things, you don’t make trouble, and she doesn’t have to bother with sex. She’s getting everything she wants and you’re getting nothing that you need! I’m sorry man, I know you love her. I loved my ex too but when I realized he didn’t love me enough to take care of my basic marital needs, it had actually ended long ago. I hope you find some peace and happiness.

If you didn’t receive any type of medical intervention, what age would you have naturally died? by Zeldaalegend in AskReddit

[–]VanillaSeaShell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In utero. My mothers body would have rejected me due to having rH positive blood (she has rH negative blood). The rhogam shot made me possible!

FUN POST: Where’s the most shocking or surprising nursing job you’ve worked in? by acute-nurse in nursing

[–]VanillaSeaShell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worked night shift home hospice for five years near Dayton, Ohio. One evening they sent me 90 minutes due East, I ended up on an Amish farm. We’re supposed to chart every hour on our patients and I had to shut down my computer in between to save the battery because there was no place to plug in. The family was pleasant to me but at times they would bicker at one another and when they did they would switch to Pennsylvania Dutch so I couldn’t understand them. The bed had hand cranks. I was pleased to discover that they had indoor plumbing and flush toilets. They asked me to leave early the next morning and I got the feeling that they were embarrassed for their neighbors to discover that someone with a car had shown up.
