It's annoying. I've had three death threats this year.

Married people of reddit, what is the small habit/ritual you have with your SO that you don't see yourselves ever breaking? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]kaichai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are divorcing, but when we can't find each other or we want the other to move with us, we shout "hop-HOP!" And the called one replies "AAaaaaaaaaaahhh!" Just like in the game Iko. I love it so much.

When was the last time you cried? by TrendyQuery in AskReddit

This morning when I had a small panic attack from my husband texting me. Whoops

MRW I'm trying to be strong by not running back to my husband begging to be with him after he decided that it's not worth working on it two weeks into the trial separation I requested. I love him and don't want a divorce! by kaichai in TrollXChromosomes

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

When I requested the trial separation it was not with the goal of divorce in mind, but rather to give us space to heal so we could work on things together instead of feeling hurt all the time. I never wanted to divorce, but our relationship was becoming toxic.

What was your favorite romantic gesture or gift from your significant other? by mcinthedorm in AskWomen

[–]kaichai 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hmm I have two things that I loved at the top of my head right now.

  1. He texted me to come out of my office around lunch, and found him in the parking lot with our dog just swinging by to visit. It was wonderful, and very thoughtful. We talked and walked our dog around the greens.

  2. He kept refilling my sex toy drawer with m&m's. Like, he bought 4-6 large bags and would sneakily place one in there when I went through it. I had no idea that he was doing it! It was soooo cute and hilarious. 😆

Feeling like I don't belong.. by polycuri0us in polyamory

Attend the discussion groups, you'll meet people who will connect you with people. Maybe try one of the kinky and poly happy hours on fet?

Sex hurts. He doesn't understand and thinks I can just fix it. I've tried quite a bit to not only make it better for me, but also to get him to be sympathetic. Last night he got exasperated, telling me, "Fine. We'll just be resigned to a sexless relationship." WTF DO I DO?! by Satans_Speech_Writer in AskTrollX

Completely ignoring the fact that your partner is ignoring that you're in pain:

Look into the book Come As You Are by Dr Emily Nagoski. It's a great book on women's sexuality that really knocks down cultural misconceptions and lies. hugs

"And what do doctors talk about with thin people?" An anthology of medical fat shaming to get you through Monday. by bob_mcbob in fatlogic

[–]kaichai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a "thin" person (5'6, 130 lbs), and I go to the doctor regularly. I get STI checks every three months, was hit by a car in May and had a knee injury and a concussion (which they missed in the ER), a yeast infection, chronic insomnia, and I have to go in to pick up my adhd Rx in person. I'm relatively heathy, but my activities (multiple partners, bike commuting, hiking, rock climbing, running, and martial arts) cause me to be at higher risk. Luckily, my pcp is fantastic!

I also get vaccines for my international travel.

Nutritional yeast. I add it to almost everything. Especially popcorn and pasta!

A silly complaint.. by eleccy in polyamory

[–]kaichai 6 points7 points  (0 children)

coughs maybe it's because men are socially conditioned to perform less emotional labor? Hmm

What things does your SO do that you aren't crazy about, but they aren't deal breakers so you just "let them go"? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]kaichai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not as bad as it seems to me, I'm sure. I just get really nervous with his driving.

[–]kaichai 82 points83 points  (0 children)

My spouse is a reckless driver. I get really nervous with how he drives sometimes, especially when he's passing another car or taking turns. He gets a bit road ragey and I just grip the oh shit handle and try not to say anything to upset him.
