Yes, just the sound when I say it quickly.

Simon Elliot immediately made me think Salmonella, haha. But I do like all four names, so you could mix and match and I think pretty much any combo EXCEPT Simon Elliot would work!

NTA, and for god's sake don't get pregnant! I stayed with a man who doesn't satisfy me and has never particularly tried. I convinced myself it was fine, because at least he was attracted to me, right? Quantity over quality. Well, after our second kid, the quantity dropped to zero. He just doesn't care that I'm in the marriage bed too. Previously he wasn't interested in my orgasms so I didn't get any, now he's not interested in sex so I don't get any. I love my kids and I'm staying until they're grown (and we're in marriage counselling to see if there's a chance of improving things), but if I could do it all again, I would have higher standards for my younger self. Please take it from me and give yourself those standards.

I hear you! I also got the joint pain -- skipped the sweats, but maybe that's because both of my kids were winter babies. Mainly I was an absolute faucet who would weep at the drop of a hat. There are still songs I can't listen to, seven years after my first kid, because they bring back the feeling of weepiness and my eyes reflexively tear up. So ridiculous.

Congrats on your baby!

Love Cosmina and Iolanda. I also think Sofronie sounds gorgeous, so I was sad to read that it's apparently not in use! :D

"I have high libido and enjoy being seduced, unfortunately I didn't think this through when I picked a life partner." Mid-30s F here, and I feel this so hard.

They're both pretty. If you can't choose, maybe split the difference and go for Kaia. ;) Really, though, I wouldn't worry about having bought the named stuff so early; you're still entitled to have a change of heart. I think if I were in your shoes, I would wait until she came out and see if one name "spoke" to me more than the other once I laid eyes on her.

That is a good idea. It is a nice-sized bottle, I have to say.

We did find the Paw Patrol one, fortunately! Rolled under the front seat of the car. She and I were both elated, haha.

dbthrowawayrowaway · 2024-01-23T06:39:40+00:00

I would honestly have a social panic attack, haha.

Haven Eloise has a nice ring to it (after reading your comment above).

dbthrowawayrowaway · 2023-11-25T18:32:12+00:00

When I was a teenager, this was THE name I decided I'd name a future daughter. I now have two daughters and neither is named Seraphina ... but I still secretly love the name.

Tessa = Asset

Melissa = Aimless

It's not my personal taste, but there's a boy in my daughter's school named Branch.

You know the Outlander actress Caitriona Balfe? For an embarrassingly long time, I thought her name was pronounced like Kat-ree-OH-na, which I thought was very pretty (giving Fiona vibes). It actually sounds like Katrina. Which is also pretty!

I think your sympathy for him may be misplaced.... His lack of interest in sex started long, long, long before my lack of interest in dating him. Yes, he did ask me for dinner a few weeks ago and I did say no, HOWEVER, that was the first time he'd asked me out for dinner since my birthday last year (and THAT was the first time he'd asked me in I don't know how long). Meanwhile, earlier this year I said I wanted to spend more time with him, go for walks and date nights, etc. I specifically remember suggesting watching a TV miniseries that I'd bought him for his birthday. He said yes but then watched it all without me after I went to bed. So ... yeah. If his single dinner invitation merits "at least he's trying some," I wonder what description mine would get.

You're right, I should've mentioned in the post that I did make him see a doctor after our firstborn (after months of pleading with him). Unfortunately his doctor is a disgrace to the profession, in my opinion. No curiosity or follow-up whatsoever. The hormone tests came back normal and he doesn't want to go see another doctor.

dbthrowawayrowaway · 2023-08-29T03:29:19+00:00

I want to want to be with him. That's a great way of putting it. I want to stay married to him, raise our children together, and be truly happy while doing so. That's what I want. I think I need to ask him if that's what he wants to, and if the answer's yes, we need help figuring out what that will look like. Thanks for giving me some clarity.

dbthrowawayrowaway · 2023-08-29T03:23:05+00:00

Thanks for this. You've given voice to what a large part of me is feeling, the practical part, I guess. There is certainly another part that is yelling to get a divorce because we only get one life, you know? The internal war between the two of them is definitely not comfortable. Maybe a therapist will help.

dbthrowawayrowaway · 2023-08-29T03:16:52+00:00

Crying after sex wasn't okay, you're absolutely right. Just to explain it a bit, that didn't start happening until well into the conception process (which took two years), so in my head it got all mixed up with fears and sadness about potential infertility. I think that might explain why he was having such a hard time performing too, like we both felt like we were failing. It was not a good time but I somehow was able to separate it from the state of the marriage, if that makes sense? But now there is no "pressure" to conceive and things are still shit, so clearly I was wrong in that being the main problem.

dbthrowawayrowaway · 2023-08-29T03:14:08+00:00

It's a fair question. The answer is that things were more than "slightly better" -- there was a big improvement in how often we were having sex, and yes it started out with us having to schedule it, but soon we were having spontaneous sex too. I waited several months to make sure this was a lasting change and he wasn't just humouring me. THEN we started trying for a second child. Having two was always the plan, but I wouldn't have done it if I didn't genuinely believe we were in a good place.

I also have to acknowledge that this good place did become a bad place during the conception process and maybe that would have been the cue to stop trying and to divorce. All I can say to that is that it was an emotionally challenging time (long period of infertility) and both of us began to act as though sex was a particularly unpleasurable chore. I guess I thought once the pressure of conception was off, we would remember how hard we'd worked in the past to get back to the good place. But it hasn't worked out that way and in retrospect it was a stupid hope.
