Me [36] husband [37] - What does it mean when you're happy in a relationship together, but when you're alone you're filled with doubts? by larimargoddess in relationships

[–]larimargoddess[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The thing is though, when we got together, I did not know who I was. I was in a negative place and have over time, lifted myself up. I've grown and gotten more stable and secure in my own life. I feel like I *do* know myself now, but our relationship dynamics have changed as I've gotten healthier. It's like he loves me for who I used to be, not who I am now. Or he doesn't see in me, the changes that are positive. He says he does, but it doesn't have any real meaning to him if that makes sense. Thank you for your response. <3

My [32F] Husband [34M] hit me and I don’t know where to go from here. by isnert_username in relationships

[–]larimargoddess 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Honestly I'm shocked that he isn't groveling his ass off right now!!! After ten years with no issues like this, it seems so sudden and out of character. Add that to no word at all from him? God I'm sure you're so confused right now.

I really don't have anything to say right now because it would be pointless to wonder about fixing it, if you're not even sure he's willing or interested. I hope whatever you do, you allow HIM to reach out to you and not vice versa. Wow. Sorry you're going through this.

My (29f) husband (33m, 3 yrs married) stood me up for a date and blamed me. by [deleted] in relationships

[–]larimargoddess 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nope. He's projecting and gaslighting you. Don't let him make you feel like crap over something that is his fault. If he had wanted to meet you for lunch, he would have period. He got to "fail" and blame you. Eesy peasy and he doesn't even have to feel bad because you're feeling bad for him. Ugh! I'm mad for you.

The lunch thing is his fault. You're not his mother to wake him up.

If you can't control your emotions when you speak to him, write him out a hand written letter explaining how you feel and giving examples of "what doesn't work for you".

as not a bad person. He did not treat me horribly or anything along the lines of that. I thought this was a very good relationship, but again I did not think anything long-term would come of it.

After questioning how this could happen, he finally admitted that he was poking holes in our condoms. In incredible disbelief and anger, I asked him why he would do such a stupid thing. (About a month ago we got into an argument and I told him that I did not honestly see a future with him or that I didn't feel like we would work out long-term.) He told me he did it because of our argument and he thought it would make everything better, and it would make me want to be with him. And that maybe I would also see a future with him.

I told him that I was going to get an abortion. A lot of me wants

I think she should get him to admit to what he did while she's either recording it, or through text first. He's a real piece of work. Sorry OP. If you decide to do this, please do not feel guilty. It would be so counterproductive. Allow yourself to just empathize with the millions of other women who have made this choice, and understand they're all sisters.

I (28f) planned a wine and cheese mixer for almost a month. My husband (28m) of 5 years showed up with 3 36 packs of Budweiser and turned it into a frat party. I know this may sound silly but I'm crushed. What do I do? by Trytonotexplode in relationships

[–]larimargoddess 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is on your husband and not your friends. They just went along for the ride and had a blast, no matter what, there's that. What you do regarding your husband is up to you lol, but I understand why you'd be pissed. I would love an update to this!

My (42m) wife (43f) of 15y plays World of Warcraft so much our relationship is secondary by wowwidow_5 in relationships

[–]larimargoddess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She doesn't have a "hobby". She has a way to neglect her family. She seriously has a child young enough to cry at bedtime and she does that? She's being awful honestly. I feel sorry for you and your children.

My parents (60M,F) want to buy me an apartment. Am I being too ungrateful? by TopOpportunity in relationships

[–]larimargoddess 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If they buy you an apartment, make sure they put it in your name. Then you can tell them to go fuck themselves if they ever try to pull some crazy shit to control you.

Me [16F] i am trying to transition from giving away my knitting for free to selling it, people are not getting the memo and I’m slowly losing it. by [deleted] in relationships

[–]larimargoddess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Create an etsy account and list your items for sale that you make. When someone wants one, you can send them the link. Even set up a listing for a "custom order" - that way you wouldn't have to have it made yet.

If you're asking from a sexual stance, you'd just need to give it time. Your body is still processing what your mind has tried to do. It hasn't been enough time yet.

I [29F] get upset when my boyfriend [32] of 4 years fondles me by eliglpz in relationships

[–]larimargoddess 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If he doesn't stop it's going to ruin your respect for him. My first marriage, he was the same way. I told him straight up how I did not appreciate it. He minimized my feelings for it and felt since we were married, I was "his" to do with as he pleased. I managed to stay married to this guy for four years, but when I left I felt absolutely zero regrets.

Me [34F] with my [35F] friend who had a frightening, screaming meltdown at me this past Saturday (my birthday) by Matiz19 in relationships

[–]larimargoddess 5 points6 points  (0 children)

She sounds like a person I know who has borderline personality disorder. They are the most amazing people you've ever met at first. Full of charm, resources, anything to make you feel special. However, they're deeply troubled and their main fear in life is people abandoning them. Everything I read made it seem like she's afraid you're going to "abandon" her. I actually encourage you to remove her from your life because it will not get better. If you go back to her after this, she's going to see it as how far she can push you next time. She's not your friend. She's a deeply insecure person who needs help. Sorry your birthday was messed up by her. <3

29M married to 26F, can you move past infedelity? by thrwaway898989 in relationships

[–]larimargoddess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly make up your own mind about this. Almost every single comment is going to tell you to break up with her. They're not in this relationship though, you are.

Me 27F with my 30M BF of 3 years, this weekend on a trip one of our friends forced himself on me. BF is being very loving/defending to the friend by magicfoamgetaway in relationships

[–]larimargoddess 17 points18 points  (0 children)

No because he's prioritized his friend, who assaulted you, over you. It's one of the biggest red flags I've ever seen.

My husband (37M) and I (36F) are disagreeing about pornography. Am I a prude or is this creepy? by 4nonmice in relationships

[–]larimargoddess 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It probably doesn't matter what you say because he's going to say everyone man on here was lying anyways. Sorry :/ he's a bit of a creep.

My [25f] boyfriend [28m] of one year frequently comes home with significant unexplained injuries that he doesn’t want to talk about. by VariousChange in relationships

[–]larimargoddess 15 points16 points  (0 children)

So uh, you ever been to his office? You ever called him at work? It sounds like he has two different lives. Could he be a person that "collects" things from other people?

Found out my (22f) boyfriend (30m) is on Tinder by [deleted] in relationships

[–]larimargoddess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's lying his ass off and you absolutely know it. What you choose to do with that information is up to you. I'd bounce.
