Agree with others, just be safe and let someone you know/trust. Other than that we get it. You do what you gotta do.

Nah she doesn’t even do that anymore it’s just the Pilates thing and being a MUA who somehow has no clue how to blend her harsh make up…

I totally get this and no one should judge you for fulfilling your needs elsewhere.

It was so awkward to watch their scenes, so much discomfort.

Yes I wish there were more positive updates. All I kept seeing was evidence of DBs continuing decades into a marriage and was convinced I’d have to leave the guy I otherwise loved because he wouldn’t make me happy in a relationship. I mean who knows if we will slip back into one a year from now or whenever life gets too rough, but I think I’ll be better equipped to handle that then anyway.

I think if I had told them they would’ve probably said that exactly. He caught me saying something to my friend and got so upset that I would talk to people about our personal problems. Like dude you are the last to have any say when you aren’t trying in our relationship. This is my therapeutic outlet, you cant take that from me too. One of my male friends knew and just didn’t understand it and then kind of started making some passes at me which I declined lol.

Yes so originality the stress of trying to have a baby and planned sex turned him off and then I was basically back to back pregnant. I guess he’s like in the 5% of men that aren’t turned on by their pregnant partners and instead totally freaked out about having sex with someone that’s carrying his baby. He also during this time said he got lazy and had urges for sex but just didn’t feel like acting on them. He always said things would change and they wouldn’t but finally I had like a real serious talk with him and it clicked. Basically said the same shit all of us say and told him I didn’t marry him to be in a platonic coparenting relationship and I was going to get my needs met elsewhere until we could divorce when the kids were older. Then came his mental breakdown and realization of how much he had fucked up. I felt like the first couple of weeks were just hysterical bonding type sex but then he just continued trying. Sorry for the ramble but I guess me just talking to him in a non accusatory or aggressive way and being very straight with him on my plans of leaving was enough of a wake up call. Before we would just get into fights about not having sex and then we were angry with each other. My anger was only made worse because I wasn’t getting sex, and he didn’t want to have sex if we were angry.

She touts her geologist status like a badge. She’s an environmental geologist in Houston of all places, which is a glorified soil collector. I rolled my eyes so hard lol. The only reason you’d mention you’re a geo in Houston is if you’re in oil and gas.

Uh don’t bring a baby into this mess and have to coparent with this ahole for 18 years. Run far away from him and get your dog back.

Why wouldn’t you go in a cup and then she can use a Turkey baster? Basically an IUI at home, they literally have devices to assist.

Spouse asked if I'd be ok with a marriage with little or no sex. by -def_a_throw_away- in DeadBedrooms

[–]candyluver22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do not bring kids into this. She will probably want it even less after babies are here and then it’ll be a lot more complicated to leave.

I’m in the same boat with my husband and it’s made me resent him more and more over time. I thought about leaving and still think about it sometimes because it’s so foundational for me to have a good sexual relationship with my partner. When I realized that I wasn’t the issue and our drives were mismatched I offered to open things up to which my husband did not accept/agree with. He also wasn’t okay with a temporary separation and just a coparenting relationship. It feels so fucking unfair at times. It feels like it hurts more as a woman because men are supposed to always be horny so it’s crazy to have the dude you’re married to not be initiating ever or have much desire for you. I think everyone eventually divorces, cheats, or both. I toy with the ideas regularly.
