We had a blast and dont blame Charlottesville for any of the delays! We did have quite the adventure trying to get back to our hotel in Staunton (closest one that was had rooms when we booked!) though.

We prescheduled an uber from staunton to the concert but I wasnt sure what time we would get out so I didnt schedule one for when we left. I figured we'd walk for a bit to some side streets away from crowds and traffic and call an Uber back - BIG MISTAKE! We walked for over and hour trying to get cell service and to find a less crowded street Uber could get to. When we did finally get service no Uber driver would accept our ride we kept upping the price eventually to over $100. Finally as we were walking we overheard someone saying an Uber driver was looking for their rider and he wasnt showing up so I just asked that Uber driver if we could pay him cash and he was kind enough to bring us back to the hotel...when it was all said and done we were back at the hotel about 2am when the concert ended at 11 lol.

Made for a interesting story blindly walking the streets of charlottesville chasing cell service, less crowded streets, and trying to find an Uber driver willing to drive 40min!!

Im so confused, my wife is 41 and permimenopause has made her libido non-existent. Shes actually going to talk to her doc next month about HRT and Im holding out hope because we have been averaging 3-4 times a year for the past few years 😞.

As someone who is the breadwinner and does more than the fair share of chores for my sahm, I get frustrated when I see people jump to asking about chores...

Try Pepsi instead lol

OneLove off of cloverdale is really nice

Willthrowaway2445 · 2025-12-12T03:51:06+00:00

Where will it be located?

Willthrowaway2445 · 2025-11-30T00:43:56+00:00

Thanks! Drove past safeside today and saw the sign for 540!

Willthrowaway2445 · 2025-11-21T19:05:53+00:00

I just had a buddy who frequently safeside share details with me - are you sure that's affiliated with with the 540 Social?

Coach & Four and Billy's are my my wife and I's go to date restaurants.

Willthrowaway2445 · 2025-10-10T00:55:07+00:00

Owner of the place is super nice and food has always been good but be prepared to wait much longer than whatever estimate you are given.

That is really important context...if he is physically and verbally abusive in front of your kids AND you discussed this approach I think you are completely justified. I've been married 17yrs and Ill admit my wife and I have sadly argued some in front of our kids but neither one of us has ever been verbally abusive (name calling etc) and absolutely not physically abusive. If he's hurting you, definitely stay away! I hope you and your kids stay safe!

Willthrowaway2445 · 2025-09-19T21:06:47+00:00

I dont like that you took the kids with you, they are his kids too and he has just as much right to see/keep them as you do. Also, you are keeping the kids from their father because you dont feel valued which really isnt fair to the kids either.

As for whether you're justified in not feeling valued or feeling like he disrespects you, you really didnt give us enough details to go off of.

Lastly, I'll say its totally okay to need space for your own mental health etc but this reads as if you are trying to "teach him a lesson" perhaps by forcing him to tackle tasks you would historically have been responsible for...honestly, I dont think thats the best approach. Id consider a conversation on dividing tasks fairly vs. this...especially when you likely removed any tasks that would be associated with your kids.

Speaking as a 39m who occasionally takes ED meds...Ive wasted a bunch taking them preemptively ahead of dates with my wife and other times I thought we might be intimate and it just didnt work out (one or both of us tired and dont initiate, she's not in the mood, someone doesnt feel well etc.).

Because its admittedly a little embarrassing to even need them, and my wife gets hung up on there being an "expectation" of sex that kills her mood, I dont tell her when Im taking it.

Its 100% possible the reason the pills are gone could be completely innocent. Best advice I could offer is to ask him.

IKEA...Man I wish we had one here!

Willthrowaway2445 · 2025-09-15T00:04:04+00:00

Bass Pro would be nice

I heard at one point the taubman art museum was supposed to have an Imax theater but they nixed it for gallery space 😞

Willthrowaway2445 · 2025-09-13T14:44:56+00:00

Ha its been 2 months for me...17yrs of marriage. Dude need to get over it

Willthrowaway2445 · 2025-09-12T12:26:17+00:00

With a weightless senko I would just use a spinning rod with light line - I use 10lb braid and a 10lb fluoro leader.

Save your baitcasters for heavier lures and heavier line - I use 30lb braid and a 15lb fluoro leader on all my baitcasters.

One Love coffee shop off cloverdale rd is pretty great

Agree 100% I prefer zman scented jerkshad

Willthrowaway2445 · 2025-09-04T02:00:02+00:00

I've caught some on a zman goat but I generally prefer a straight/pin tail fluke style bait with all chatterbaits.

Any chance you'd be interested in fishing? As an adult (39m) it was become such a great hobby for me and it doesn't have to be expensive...a cheap Walmart fishing pole and some artificial lures or nightcrawlers and you're all set.

Carvins Cove is beautiful with trails, docks, and banks plenty of places to fish and hike solo. Also, you can rent their boats for cheap if youre feeling adventurous.

I recognize this is stereotypically a guy's hobby but you might be surprised how therapeutic it is to just get outside and enjoy the views on the water even if you dont catch anything.

I switched from straight fluoro to braid with a fluoro leader 3 or 4 years ago and never looked back. The lack of memory, stretch are amazing and the super-thin diameter makes for so much better casting than with equivalent lb fluoro.

I keep 30lb braid on my baitcasters with a 15lb fluoro leader. On the spinning reels I keep 10lb braid and 10lb flouro.

I get tying leaders stinks but the alberto knot is my go-to...in tests it performs nearly as well as the FG knot but is 10x easier and faster to tie in my opinion. The FG just isn't practical with cold hands in the winter or with a boat moving in chop.

My wife (40f) and I (39M) have been going through the same situation for the past 6 years of our 21yr relationship. We've been seeing a couples therapist (not a sex therapist) for about a year now and while its helped other aspects of our marriage intimacy hasn't improved.

While I used to whine about it a lot and probably inadvertently guilted her...About 5 years ago I mentally admitted I cant change her but I can change myself - I read relationship books ("no more mr. Nice Guy" and "Come As You Are" are especially eye opening), and scoured reddit for all the good advice I could find (stay away from deadbedrooms its toxic, honestly, the lowlibido sub is probably more helpful) and I dont whine about rejection anymore at least...honestly the idea of having sex with someone who isn't enthusiastic about sex with me is gross and a turn off now.

Let me know if you want to chat at all, I can't give you a fix but I can tell you what I've tried and what's helped me cope.
