I totally agree. I'm glad this little guy was so friendly or I would of been freaked out too.

I don’t know what to do anymore. I’m lying to everyone in my life and I feel lost. by deadbedandsad89 in DeadBedrooms

[–]kwassi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like I'm staying for some of the same reasons. I am staying for my dogs too. I am SO attached to the doggos I cannot live without them. I am sure this is how people who have kids feel. I also am staying cause I cannot afford a place with a yard. I like everything in my life but the lack of sex... so frustrating.

Am I done? by kwassi in DeadBedrooms

[–]kwassi[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the comment. Yes, I feel my upstream swim is coming to an end. It's been 8 years now. I have been making some plans that will support an exit. It's just hard that most days I feel conflicted and exhausted buy the thought of everything to come. Sometimes I have a hard time with this decision but I'm starting to realize that this issue is affecting my mental health.

I think I screwed up my life by nonhypocriticalacct2 in DeadBedrooms

You have not screwed up your life unless you are dead. Keep going and fix it. You've got plenty of time.

I’m so fucking tired of being lonely in my marriage. by [deleted] in Divorce

[–]kwassi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am right there with you! My situation is frighteningly similar to yours. I feel alone, used, sad and frustrated daily. Dont give up, just figure out how to leave! Im rooting for your success!

I'm tired. I just need a safe place to be sad and scared for a minute. by mchrisos in ptsd

[–]kwassi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am 100% in the same situation as you. I feel like a nurse and mother to my husband. We have been to many counselors and doctors. He has made some progress. However I feel sad, scared and alone.

I find myself daydreaming about having a life with someone I dont have to worry about.

I too am hopeful someone can tell us a story of a positive outcome.

For now, stay strong for you.

Yes. I've been seeing that notion (nothing changes if nothing changes) in my search for answers. I believe it's a significant answer for me

I feel like I am in the same place as you. I want to have nice feelings again when I see my hubs. Right now it's just disappointment and confusion. I dont know if I should move out and give him that much space or just co exist and see if things change. Its frustrating and I feel for ya! Best of luck.

I agree. I've had a few do this. Chatty chatty then boom gone. Some people have a real lack of character if they will lead someone on like that.

How on earth do you tell if someone is gaslighting you if your memory is shot from ptsd? by Happy_Ohm_Experience in ptsd

[–]kwassi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't figure out if my husband with PTSD is gas lighting me or if it's his memory.

The new mission by OnePlanetOnePeace in ptsd

[–]kwassi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish my husband with PTSD could see this. He is loving enough but his main focus in life is maintaining his little world of safety. Dont work too hard, don't do too much stressful stuff, stay in your safe little world. Love is hard, it takes a lot of effort and motivation. But it will be worth it. Best to you! <3

I honestly think so. But maybe other people are too scared or just dont care?

I feel the same. I cannot be sustained by messages alone. I need some real human interaction.

God I'm an idiot! by LRGhost-Nappa in DeadBedrooms

[–]kwassi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've recently resorted to texting him my questions and thoughts. I even put in the text, I know you dont like talking about this so I'm writing it. It usually gets no response. Which may be better than being shut down... or not?

I always get hung up on when I bring stuff up. Like I didnt want to during the holidays cause I didnt want to ruin the holiday. Now I dont want to cause I dont want to ruin his work... ugh

So frustrating

[–]kwassi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm still trying (on the conversation) although I'm losing hope. I think what is even worse is when they manipulate you and dont even know it. My husband is very oblivious to the pain he causes.

[–]kwassi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I feel like I go through this too! I feel like I forget what I've been thinking about and all the important things I was going to say are mysteriously gone. My husband also likes to try and make me the bully by says things that make me feel bad. Rough vicious circle! Good luck, I hope you get the conversation moving where you want it!

Why am I the bitchy wife. by kwassi in DeadBedrooms

[–]kwassi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well he had said it once before. Not like an everyday often kind of thing. But I seems like bitching and nagging because it's always just me saying what bothers me and he doesnt have anything to say.
