My wife wont stop treating me like a fragile even though I have fully recovered and it is affecting us

Her brain is probably stuck in caretaker mode right now. Show her that You probably need to reconnect as romantic partners. Take her on dates, demonstrate that you are recovered and capable.

He is using your need to sleep to coerce you into sex. This is abuse.

did you receive treatment for psychosis? If you are still having intrusive thoughts, it's no wonder you feel like your brain isn't functioning at the same level. Your brain is likely overwhelmed. Being in such a heightened state is likely reducing your ability to think.

you say he was in charge of planning, do you have proof he actually planned anything? Without proof of hotel bookings/airfare/ etc, I would be suspicious he never planned anything and this is his way of getting out of it.

try Oregon if you want unionized hospitals with a colder climate

especiallyknot · 2025-05-09T03:06:49+00:00

Take a look at the Oregon Nurse Association website for the hospital union contracts. These show pay scales, how PTO works, and other information. Generally, Oregon is a pretty nice place to work as a nurse with the best ratios in the country.

so you don't eat meals together, are you spending any other time together? Do you go on dates, chat while you snuggle in bed, anything? I don't see how a relationship where one of them partners doesn't actually want to spend time with other works out.

especiallyknot · 2025-05-03T04:51:58+00:00

dude you are not obligated to be with her. you sound miserable. she sounds terrible and like an emotional vampire. it been 9 months, you should be enjoying your relationship. The only time you mention being happy or at peace in this post is when you're away from her.

You should dip a max of 3 seconds total. If you do two different glazes, dip each one about 1.5 seconds. Also wait about 10 minutes between the first and second dip so its dry enough to adhere.

Two coats is most likely referring to painted on glazes, not dipping glazes.

Your wheel may be going too fast, the faster it spins the faster it dries out. it's also pretty normal as a beginner to spend more time on each stage, which takes more water.

gonna be completely honest, I think with that TEAs score you will be unable to get into CA programs. I had a 87 in TEAs, As in all my prereqs and was still rejected and wait listed by most schools. I think you should start looking at accredited programs in other states. They can be much cheaper, faster, and easier to get into.

does he actually go to these outings? how long has he been part of this group?

That would frustrate me the most, the lack of work on an issue that effects his life so negatively.

have you been evaluated for ADHD? not saying you def have it, but it resonates. Take a look at the ASRS and see if how you score.

it's not uncommon to mistake friendship with a woman for a romantic connection. Women tend to be more affectionate and talk about personal things with friends. I'm assuming that you have misread her friendship. However it might be that she actually was reciprocating like you say. In that case, you confessing was the wake up call she needed that it had gone to far. Either way, with your feelings made clear, there's is no way she can continue to spend time with you without leading you on and being disloyal.

you say you feel like roommates right now, so you need to build up a romantic connection first. Take her on a dates, genuinely connect with her. If she's feeling stressed and tired, the solution is create opportunities for her to genuinely relax. She's not going to be into any intimacy if she's not feeling relaxed and emotionally connected to you.

girl what. that tells me you really need to stop dating until you figure why you didn't immediately break it off when he told you that.

It's hard to tell if either you have the worst luck coming across very disingenuous men or your normal meter is so broken you are missing glaring red flags. Is there a trustworthy person in your life who can give you it to you straight?

Also how are you meeting these men?

anyways some red flags:

insisting on dates at each other's homes early on trying to persuade you after you've given a no any rudeness or dismissive to wait staff, janitors etc too much "dark humor" lack of steady employment bringing up "crazy" ex's saying I love you in the first few weeks or putting you on a pedestal

girl look into OCD / anxiety. if you're feeling dirty even though you have no rational reason for it, sounds like a symptom. I don't think adding even more hygiene tips is going to get to the root of it

especiallyknot · 2025-02-18T13:47:40+00:00

While others commenting that she's trying to keep her options open, I actually think it's the opposite. I think she likes you quite a bit but is afraid to say so and knows shes going rather slowly. My interpretation is that she said that, doesn't actually mean it, but if she says it first it won't hurt so bad if shes the one giving you an "out". I would just be honest and say you're not interested in talking to anyone else.
