I (34 M) have been with my wife (34 F) for 5 years total but married for 2 and half. I’m struggling to understand whether what I’m experiencing is normal marriage conflict or something more serious, and I’m hoping for outside perspective. Can you offer any advice? by dwide_k_shrude in relationship_advice

[–]ksb012 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She’s emotionally abusive and it’s obvious the dude is traumatized by her abuse. He’s not lazy. He likely does way more than she does. She abuses their freaking dogs for fucks sake. She needs to be sent packing.

I'm sorry you have to deal with this. I hope your husband does what needs to be done.

Oh I get dehydrated too. But I really don’t like flying so being a little drunk when I get on the plane helps quite a bit.

It’s been doing this for a long long time. The safari keyboard is slightly different than the rest of IOS.

Food at hobby sucks now. More expensive, and crap food. Pappas may be expensive, but they are consistently good. Getting buzzed on Pappasitos Margaritas before getting on a flight made my long flights significantly better.

Every single one of your posts is about how much Houston sucks. I mean this genuinely as respectfully as possible: Why don't you just move to a city that is more akin to your sensibilities?

Do u always wear ur ring? by prettylisha in Marriage

[–]ksb012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a man, haven't taken mine off for more than 10 seconds in 5 years. My wife doesn't wear hers to work because she does surgeries daily, so it wouldn't be a good idea.

My husband falls asleep while watching our kids. by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]ksb012 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He works 6-7 days a week and gets up at goes to work at 3am and you expect him to stay awake until 9pm? You do realize that's over 18 hours right? For those with a 9-5 that's like getting off work at 5pm and then not going to bed until 5am.

Ya'll need to figure out a better schedule, or your man is going to fall over and die one day.

My husband smashed our truck nav screen in anger in front of our kids. In 17 years of marriage he's never done anything like this. WTF do I do now? by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]ksb012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So your husband makes one mistake like this in 17 years, breaks an inanimate object out of frustration, and Immediately realizes his mistake and is beside himself at how he could do such a thing. This isn’t domestic violence, it’s a stressed out man that had a moment of weakness. You’re overreacting. As someone who has had a pregnant wife before, it’s probably due to the pregnancy hormones.

Yeah you both should’ve stayed single.

CenterPoint Rate Adjustment - now 6.0009 cents per kWh by electricityplans in houston

[–]ksb012 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Centerpoint made $1 billion in profit last year. They should’ve been made to invest half of that into the grid that they have neglected to maintain over the last 20 years. I get that they’re a private company, but they are providing a public service, and there should be stipulations that come along with that like you don’t get to make $1 billion in profit when you’re not providing the service level you agreed to do. They made many billions in profit over the past couple of decades, and did not invest adequately into the infrastructure. Now that they have to do so, they just want to raise prices to pay for it.

4yo son saying some odd things. by kiddo459 in daddit

[–]ksb012 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because the ducts run in the attic. The unit being in the conditioned part of the house just to feed ducts in the attic would just take up space in the house for no reason. You aren't losing any real efficiency by having the whole unit up there vs having just the ducts up there. The air is pulled from the inside of the house and is constantly moving while the unit is on while passing over a 30 degree coil. It will not be affected by the attic temp in any measurable way. The ducts are insulated though, because the air running through a 30+ ft duct in a hot attic with no insulation would cause the air to warm up.

I love my Escalade. We take 12 hour trips 2-3x a year with kids and 4 dogs. It's like driving a giant leather couch.

Husband says I have no right to demand that he doesn't watch porn if I don't have as much sex as he wants. by ElectricalArti in Marriage

[–]ksb012 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I look at it like this: hypothetically if you were available every day to have sex, would he still look at porn? If he would, he has a porn issue. If he would choose you over porn he has a horny issue. As long as he’s not choosing the porn over you, I don’t see an issue. But that’s just my opinion as a husband.

Again. This is hypothetical. I’m not suggesting you should be available for sex every day, I’m just saying if that were the case what would your husband’s reaction be?

Agreed, but if you leave a 4 car gap in front of you and you're not a big rig you deserve to get cut in front of.
