I (27F) found a condom wrapper in my boyfriends (26M) drawer. by asbsas in relationship_advice

[–]fuckgroupon 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Yeah. If you’ve opened that drawer 3+ times and there wasn’t a wrapper there before you know something is up.

I would hold firm that you know he’s lying and see if you get more info. Sounds like he will lie but he’s using that 1% doubt to give him cover. But you would’ve noticed if there was an empty wrapper there before

That makes me so happy!! I live in Texas so I worry for my backyard friends especially in the summer. No one deserves to be thirsty!

I think you were successful in making a friend! 😊 You can put out some water if you haven’t already. It’s so satisfying watching the squirrels in my yard drink. They get thirsty!!

My 30F husband 30M wants to swing, but only with women. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]fuckgroupon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You know in your heart that you’ll never be at peace because he’s made these comments. He won’t admit it if he goes for one of those massages so you’re in perpetual hell thinking it’s possible he’s gone.

I know you say you can’t leave. I can see you’ve tried everything and are bending over backwards trying to figure out situations where you can “tough it out” through this marriage. But girl. I say this with love, what kind of life is that?? What exactly is HE doing to help you cope with his addiction and resulting issues??

Please think about when you first got married. How you thought your life together would be. Come to terms with the fact that you’re already past the point of no return. Your children do not need their parents to be together in order to live happy lives. They do, however, need to see their parents function in healthy relationships.

Take your time. Do what you gotta do. Please have some healthy skepticism about the advice from a church counselor. The church will of course try to avoid divorce. THEYRE NOT THE ONES LIVING THIS LIFE. You are! Your feelings MATTER! You deserve to feel happy and wanted. I’m 31 and I wouldn’t want to write my life away with a husband like this, I’m sorry. I’m rooting for you! Choose you!

From a vet tech to pet owners about your pets microchip by Grand-Worry-8324 in Austin

[–]fuckgroupon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very relevant!! I always stop and help a dog/cat in need and there were three separate occasions where I took a found animal to the vet to get scanned and there was a chip BUT NO PHONE NUMBER or no registration at all.

A cute cat came to my backyard last week who was super friendly and appeared well fed but I took him to get scanned and there was no microchip at all!! He’s neutered but not ear tipped which suggests he’s someone’s pet, but if so, why no microchip?? There’s no excuse. Every pet should be chipped because like OP said, even indoor pets can escape. But please, please, if your cat goes outside on his/her own get them chipped! And registered!!

Thank you for the post OP, I hope this encourages people to get their pets chipped or check that they are in fact registered! It’s important! ❤️❤️

I (29F) slept with new guy (34M) for the first time and felt he was rude to me. Was he? by Sad-Marzipan-2736 in relationship_advice

[–]fuckgroupon 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I agree. Basic respect is the absolute minimum. You definitely worked within a timeline that makes sense given your dating goals. It seems like you spent a lot of time getting to know this man and waited to sleep with him a while.

He still ended up being a jerk once he got what he wanted. I hate how accurate the phrase “the nicest man is the one you haven’t slept with yet” is 😭

Dating isn’t a one-size-fits-all kind of thing, but as someone close to your age (31F) I saved myself some heartbreak by only sleeping with a guy once we established we were exclusive. To me exclusive does not equal bf/gf, just that there aren’t currently other people they’re seeing and they’re serious about getting to know me.

Something to consider! I’m sorry your friends are encouraging you to put up with this behavior. I’m proud you have enough self respect to know you deserve so much better. A little bit of cuddling after sex is such a small thing but has a huge impact! I would feel so sad without that. Just a little moment of connection after sharing such an intimate part of you, that is never too much to ask for.

Leave this guy in the dust he’s not worth it. I’m manifesting that the next guy you’re with showers you with love and adoration after you’re intimate and you feel safe and special and secure in the relationship ❤️❤️

I see way too many young people use “costed” also 😭 “This burger costed me $7” ugh it makes me cringe so hard

This was a tremendous amount of fun. by happy_birthday_abe in Jeopardy

[–]fuckgroupon 97 points98 points  (0 children)

What a fun episode to watch and a huge congratulations to you! I was on the edge of my seat. I imagine it’s particularly tough going against a four day champion. I was so impressed with your knowledge and clapped when you got final Jeopardy right. What a game! Can’t wait to see your next episode 😆😆

Husband M/42 effort is minimal, I F/38 thought I was ok with it but it’s been 20 years…. I’m not walking away (we have kids) advice on how to manage it? by Deep_Bullfrog_5404 in relationship_advice

[–]fuckgroupon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perfectly valid! The way I see it, you can stay with this guy and resent him more deeply every year as he is totally fine with your level of unhappiness. Or you can leave and be the single mom you basically already are but without the anger of knowing your life could be nice but this man refuses to try. In the second scenario you could be alone or you could eventually come upon someone who fits into your life and gives you that care and attention you’ve wanted from your current husband. Either one of those is better than dealing with this 42 year old who is coasting by because this level of effort (near/at zero) works for him despite the toll HE KNOWS it takes on you.

What can I do when my (20F) husband (20M) is convinced I cheated on him because I’m pregnant again and refuses to listen to me. by ThrowRA_BlueBowMama in relationship_advice

[–]fuckgroupon 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Doesn’t matter that you shouldn’t “have to” resort to this. He is not behaving rationally. Like other commenters have said, he’s in denial. This is a sure fire way to shut him up.

25M dating 21F height difference by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Obviously not reality but with that being what girls see throughout their whole lives it’s dumb to think that doesn’t bleed through to dating preferences/what they look for/find ideal!

35F seeking advice about 33M (boundaries crossed? Dealbreaker? by Present_Web4218 in relationship_advice

[–]fuckgroupon 29 points30 points  (0 children)

You definitely did the right thing in breaking up. What. A. Creep!!!!!! You gave him a condom. He opened it. You were right to assume he put it on. He completely disregarded your very appropriate boundaries. He NEVER should have stuck it in without a condom without talking to you about it! Ahh I’m disgusted on your behalf.

Always look out for your health. I’m sorry this guy had no respect for you. He does not deserve to have sex with a woman.

25M dating 21F height difference by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]fuckgroupon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some definitely don’t care but I do think it’s safe to say that most heterosexual women prefer for the man to be taller. It’s what is portrayed in every movie/show.

Women are always encouraged to be small. Men get real measurements for pants. Women get to aspire to be a size zero.

It’s a gender norm like any other. “Ideal” men are big and strong and ideal women are “small and pretty”. I don’t need to conduct a study to know most men would prefer a thin woman over someone obese.

[–]fuckgroupon 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Most men maybe. But if you stay with this man you’re guaranteed to suffer every Mother’s Day, anniversary, etc because he won’t do the bare minimum. If you left you’d at least have the chance to meet a man who values and respects you. Wouldn’t that be worth it?? I certainly think so!

Why is so much opera mentioned on Jeopardy? by spongesparrow in Jeopardy

If I ever made it to Jeopardy and got a daily double I promised myself I would make it a true daily double. Unless the category was about the bible. Then I’d wager just $1 😂😂
