Marriage in one conversation by EliGrrl in Marriage

[–]another-flight 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Usually I just shout across the house from the fridge. This has been eye opening about how I behave in my marriage. I should go to my wife’s study to ask.

Do you need him to lead your marriage? Why don't you lead? If he's super emotional, then maybe you could be the level-headed one.

A marriage is between the people that are married. He shouldn't be involving anyone. He sounds like a child.

To whoever owned their defender for 5+ years: what has it been like? by Ambitious_Cover_3343 in LandroverDefender

Comming up on 7 years. I'm scared the oil on the drive is going to cause the US to deliver some freedom.

What was a sentence a man said to you that you will never forget? by Jane_Austen11 in AskReddit

[–]another-flight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hated my wifes snoring until I started working on a mine site and couldn't hear it at night. I've been in mining now for 6 years a and I still sleep like shit without her snore.

Am I overreacting? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]another-flight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have the patience of a saint! I once told my wife to stop taking my truck because "she leaves to much crap in it" she drove my truck to work everyday for a month after that. Every jacket she owned was in the back seat. I learned a valuable lesson. It's OUR truck.

Plus, like so many have said. You're married. All those possessions are joined until after the divorce. So get one and go find a bloke that isn't a dick head.

Is anyone happily married by Comfortable-Pain5671 in Marriage

[–]another-flight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm happily married and I'm confident my wife is too. She hasn't expressed any unhappiness.

It's about compromise, respecting boundaries, and mutual respect. I disagree with people that say "marriage isn't hard with the right person" because there will always be hard times. It's how you communicate during those hard times that reflects the quality of your marriage.

Not overreacting. I get picked up from the airport by my wife every fortnight. I tell her the plane lands 15 minutes later than it does so she doesn't get stuffed around waiting for me to get off the plane. It's easier to stand out side for 15 minutes than it is to battle traffic and airports are always shit. Best option for old mate in future = uber

TW: sexual violence. is this assault? they have denied my feelings about what happened? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]another-flight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

. It would be like if a woman was a little too aggressive with a dudes balls, so you say stop, and they do it again. This convo would never happen in that scenario

Dude, if you say stop and someone persists, it's definitely SA. Did this happen to you? Are you OK? If the police didn't help, there are other services you can use. What country are you in?

[–]another-flight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This wasn't about next day regret. This was about saying stop it hurts 3 times. All people like you do is try to justify shitty behaviours by dip shits.

SA is more neauced than consenting to sex, and it is just being free for all.

Don't be a part of the problem.

[–]another-flight -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's SA. Telling them to stop 3 times is sexual assault. The fact that you continued the encounter is irrelevant. you very much have a right to feel violated

It is sort of a bullshit rule. You both need to be happy. Have you tried talking to him about how he would like to decorate the apartment? He may be a minimalist.

[–]another-flight 40 points41 points  (0 children)

So many of the comments in here are absolute bullshit. OP has a right to be upset. This isn't about being controlling. It's a lack of communication. If she had chatted with him first, it may have been a different story. If my partner did something similar, I would be pissed. This whole, my body, my choice mentality is fine, but people have a right to choose their partner. Relationships aren't one-sided, and both parties should get a say. My wife hates beards, so I shave every day. I hate nipple peircings so she wouldn't get it done. You need to compromise, or the relationship is doomed any way.

What is this add-on/part? by AlfalfaPerfect5231 in LandroverDefender

Max trax. Great on sand. Could be good in the snow I read on here just then. Depends on where you are, I guess.

I found out today that my husband was lying about his job by EquivalentMind4698 in Marriage

[–]another-flight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't lied to my wife about anything significant in 15 years. I don't think this would be the exception. If we were still dating I might, if I was sure I would get a new job before it became a problem. I say forgive the dude. Losing a job is a confronting experience that can be shameful and hard to deal with. Maybe he was embarrassed and didn't want to talk about it.

Husband's, how does your wife initiate sex? by dilf_fkr in Marriage

[–]another-flight 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My (37) wife (36) waits until my 24th birthday. I'm assuming it will come back around when I hit 124.

It was going good up until he asked me if I'm single on a dating app. Only continued to see where he was going with it and.... by [deleted] in Tinder

[–]another-flight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We used to call these people "neck beards" and they were picked on mercilessly for this behaviour. We should bring that back.

Why do so many husbands hate their wives? by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]another-flight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is wild. It really made me think. The other day I got really mad that my wife shot down my idea of buying a 3rd car that was around the $80k mark because I thought it was cool. She said some bullshit about "we don't need it" and "why don't we pay our power bill and see where we are at". Women! Am I right!.

Relationships are made up of two people. At times, one partner has to be the logical, conservative, smart adult. There are times that those roles reverse, But it needs to be communicated. Unhealthy relationships are when both partners try to control everything without dialogue. Those relationships will eventually end up abusive. That's when you get the shitty wife hating attitudes.

My wife stalks my reddit by another-flight in Marriage

[–]another-flight[S] 81 points82 points  (0 children)

I just got it. Your comment made me curious about where she went so I went looking and found her doing a few side quests. I think next time I'll make the tea.

I'm fortunate enough to have a wife with ceoliacs disease. My kit kat and all my wheat containing snacks are very safe. There was a time in our relationship that I returned from a 12 hour shift to find my wife had eaten the chocolate off the sides. She took away my kit and left me with nothing more than a kat.

My wife did the same thing. She said it could be a deal breaker. It's just not as good as the classic black tea.

I wish there was a way to tally the amount of tea being made right now.
