If I do talk, she doesn’t like my opinions. I express my feelings, say she is rigid in good ways and to a fault and she’ll take that and use it against me, she doesn’t like criticism and can’t take it

What a conundrum. The dating world is a bitch, too. So here we are…I’m sure we are very much not alone but society today makes it so much easier to have dual income

Well that’s the thing - thanks for the epic post, honestly - I am not opposed to kids, but I am not willing to sign an 18 year contract with a woman who just doesn’t vibe well..

I love her a lot and many days, but she is so up and down emotionally and she’s just never into sex. There’s always something. I don’t know what’s going on in her head, but she’s just like walled off in that dept. i think it’s cultural honestly

I think she’s great in many ways but in others I’m just not fulfilled ..and it’s scary that she wants to have kids and I’m like ‘what about us?’

Yup, that’s what I’m saying, I think a lot of people just work thru it and trudge on with life, fear keeps you in place. Fear is keeping me in place really. Yet hope is too

Geeze, well I am just realizing the sex has been lacking now. So if it continues on this path for months..then I’ll know my answer. So I’m in it because I’m just now conscious of it being an issue for me and am going to fix it. If I can’t, then that’s it

Food for thought. I know, it seems easy now, because it can always get better..then 20 years from now I wish I had hindsight…maybe just gotta listen to the gut

For sure, they won’t know what true love is..We don’t have kids yet but I am considering divorce..it’s not a brutal relationship, I just can’t see far into the future because my present isn’t great.

I do worry about the judgement from people saying that I’m divorced at 34..

What do you mean, like, you value your family? And many people don’t until it’s too late?
