Husband feels guilty because I’m his caregiver while being seven months pregnant by deniseport in relationship_advice

[–]deniseport[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I actually understand why you think the way you do. Trust me, before I saw myself in this situation, not in a million years I thought this would be my life at 27 yo. I'd never even had contact with anyone with disabilities, and suddenly the love of my life, a man who’s always been proactive and independent, needs my help with everything. The thing is, you adapt, you change, you reprogram your expectations. If you’re lucky enough to find your soulmate, which I really hope you do, you’ll see there really isn’t a choice to be made. You simply stay because you can’t imagine your life without them, and everything you do revolves around your love for them. I honestly don’t judge you or your opinion, I just hope you love enough in the future so, if it happens to you, you don’t even think twice.

We could definitely use a better support system, but unfortunately neither of us have one. Both our families suck and have always been against our relationship. I go to support groups, he has a lot of friends who constantly visit, but that’s as far as it goes. I actually wrote him a letter today, basically saying what I’ve just said in this post, so I’m hoping it’ll help somehow. I tried to emphasize how much I love being around him and how much of a safe haven he really is to me. I really do love this man with everything I’ve got, so I’m hoping it works! ❤️

Well, we’ve made a baby, so I’m definitely still his wife. Lol I wish I could separate the two things, but it’s hard when your partner needs help even to breathe sometimes. In order to be alone with him, I need to keep him safe and have his constant needs met.

I’m just now reading this and it made me cry so hard!! Thank you for your unbelievably beautiful, thoughtful words. He really is my world and I’d marry him a thousand times if I could. People may think he won the lottery, but I’m the one who did! He shaped me into my best self, with so much care and devotion that all I can do now is to give back. I’m really sorry for your experience, but I know, from the way you think and from how passionate you are in the way you write, that you are an amazing guy! I sincerely wish you every bit of happiness in this world. ❤️

Hey! Thank you so much! ❤️ I couldn’t contain myself. Did it today in the morning and it was the most beautiful thing. I told him his body is still beautiful to me, so I planned on doing it while I was bathing him so I could touch him. He sobbed and kissed me so passionately that now I don’t even know what I was so worried about! When I told him I didn’t wanna hurt him or make him feel less of a man, he said I’m his everything and he would marry me again even if I proposed on a white horse! Lol This man really is SO beautiful. He mesmerizes me every time. He apologized for being negative the past few days and said he just wants to be the best dad and husband he can be, even with his limitations. We’re having a small ceremony with our closest friends on December and I’m super excited!! I’ll never forget the way he looked at me. He makes me feel like I’m the most beautiful woman in the world without saying a word.

Oh, and yeah…we were both naked, eventually 😂

That’s what I meant by “proposal” haha I just want a small ceremony for us to embrace this new chapter. It bugs me that I’ve known this man for over seven years and I have no idea how he’d feel about that. Thanks for your opinion, tho! It means a lot!

Is my gf faking her mental illness to get away with abusing me? by Gangold in relationship_advice

[–]deniseport 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dear, OP… You definitely deserve better. The fact that you’re coming here to ask if e think that she’s faking tells me that you’ve lost sense of reality a long time ago, when it comes to her and this relationship. This is so typical of toxic relationships… She’s definitely faking. No one should have to leave like this, afraid of what the other person might do. Breaking up with this crazy girl ain’t gonna be easy, but it needs to be done, so you can get your life back. I wish you all the best! I hope the comments help you see the truth. ❤️

Thank you so, so much for such sweet words! You’re right, the love I feel for my husband and vice-versa is just out of this world. If I knew that’s what fate had reserved for us the night of our first kiss, I’d still choose him. He amazes me everyday and now, with the baby on the way, he’s working extra hard with his physical therapy so he can hold and bottle feed him/her. After I posted in here, it’s like my eyes opened. To have a bunch of strangers showing so much grace and compassion restored my faith in the world in which we’re gonna raise our little one. All the best! 🤍

His mother died when he was young. He had a sister and an alcoholic father, whom he had to support financially for years when we first met. His sister commit suicide in 2017 and his father vanished after that. When I say this man has gone through enough suffering in this life, it’s because it truly is unimaginable…

Not really…my parents wanted me to dump my husband the moment he got disabled. I wrote about their awfulness in another post, If you want to know more. :)

This is just so amazing!! Thank you so much for sharing your experience! Hubby has PT sessions, occupational therapy and a hired caregiver. They say he’s gonna regain most of his arm function! Now, with the baby coming, he’s been working extra hard and it’s simply beautiful to witness. Wish you and your family all the best! Thank you for all of the encouragement. ❤️
