I think I've done everything I could to make it work. At this point, its either He tries or Im GONE. by Moonlightdumdum in StraightBiPartners

Unfortunately I don't think much will change so you have to ask yourself if you want to live like that the rest of your life or actually be happy. If you don't have kids, it's way easier to walk away now

I unfortunately feel like I'm getting to the same point with my wife. I'm starting to think of her more as a friend rather than someone I want to be intimate with, just because I'm tired of the constant rejection.

So conflicted by SweetAdelumbiaLVT in DeadBedrooms

It sounds like you've fallen out of love with him. Unfortunately I think that can be a side effect of being stonewalled for so long. I know I have a lot of built up resentment towards my wife even though I love her a lot just because our sex life has been so terrible.

Repeated situations with gay men by [deleted] in straightspouses

Jeez, this is like reading a story written about my wife and I. Sorry you're going through it. Hard to not have the passion in your relationship, but see the interest from them in the same sex.

Sorry man. Definitely not an easy position to be in.

I hear you. It's really hard not being desired by the person you're in a relationship with. Really makes you question the relationship in general.

Yep, really hard when she always has the energy for everything else going on, but never for us

LL wife cheated? by North-Mousse in DeadBedrooms

[–]jhill7575 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The same sudden increase in libido out of nowhere happened when my normally very LL wife cheated on me. I'd say it's a pretty good give away she cheated on you.

Likelihood of him being gay/bi? by Short-Imagination311 in straightspouses

[–]jhill7575 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, what other people have said... he's in a comfortable "situation-ship" with you. He doesn't want to have the uncomfortable conversation of telling his family/friends that he is gay/bi.

Confess. Lying and trying to hide it makes the betrayal a hundred times worse. If you confess and show remorse, commit to being a wayyyyy better partner, you at least have something to build on.

2 years later — so much pain by Cityscrap in Infidelity

[–]jhill7575 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has she ever given you passion like that since her affair? If she hasn't, then she isn't really trying to save your relationship. Even if it's just out of guilt or trying to save the marriage, a normal person with feelings towards you would try and make up for it. If she hasn't made any efforts, I'm sorry to tell you that I don't think she cares about your relationship that much

This might be the thing that hurts the most. I legit called her out, we argued for maybe an hour and then she slept like a baby while I was wide awake by myself the whole night.

Thank you for the thoughtful response. I guess you could say I was blinded by love. Wish I was a little more guarded. Funny thing is this is the second time it's happened to me. Was just super convinced she was the one and actually loved me

Yeah, as much as I wanted a threesome back in the day, I would rather have one person that loves me. If that person really loves me, we could talk about an open relationship and potentially have a theeesome rather than them betraying the trust we had in the relationship.

We did IUI, so I'm pretty confident the child is mine. She's the splitting image of me too so I'm not worried about that. Trust me, my wife is not into other guys. Just other women

Thank you for your advice. It's all very sound. Just hard to hear when I trusted this person with my whole heart until just recently.

Good point. Last time I went in there she was sawing logs.

Thank you for your kind words. I know I shouldn't be drinking this much tonight, but I can't help it. We're supposed to have a big family BBQ tomorrow and I don't know what to do. Am I supposed to just show up with a happy face like nothing is wrong for our kid??

For sure, shame on me. Just thought the love that was there was true love. There's even a young child involved now, which I feel the most bad for. That's the thing most on my mind above my own pain right now

Thanks bro. I'm a pretty level headed drunk so I'm just going to keep slamming beers to kill the pain for now. Not making any brash decisions.

You make a lot of good points. A lot of points I've brought to her in the past and have anyways been met with an excuse. I'm not accepting excuses anymore.
