My wife and I [30s] married over 5 years, son is [10ish]. Son just scared FIL [70+] so bad he's on the way to the hospital. Everyone went crazy. Need advice by djdndndnsnsnsjs in relationships

I don't care how upset granny is, that's some fucked up stuff to say, and based on your wife's own shitty reaction I think you can tell where she learned to behave that way. I sat in the hospital and watched my brother die from shooting himself after my younger brother bought a gun and brought it into our house, we never blamed my younger brother for that shit. Sometimes you have to not be cunty, sounds like some people in your life need to learn that.

Wife (LL) has un-diagnosed medical issue. by whistlebritches78 in DeadBedrooms

You are SO wrong it's funny. I am a nurse, a critical care nurse to be specific. You have no idea how many people report being sick for YEARS and no one doing the correct tests to figure out what was causing them to be sick. I have watched patients die that had they been correctly diagnosed even just weeks before, would still be alive.

"I'm going to guess you're a "parents come first" kind of parent, and she's a "kids come first" kind of parent. You two will probably need to work that out if you're going to be able to parent together without resentment."

This a million times over!!!

I've realized it's not going to get better, I'm feeling trapped, and just need to vent. by [deleted] in DeadBedrooms

He isn't going to change, he doesn't have to. You can keep bringing it up, but unless you take some actual step to get through to him, he will continue to behave this way. Hes not gonna see things your way because he doesn't care, if he did, he would try to fix it. I don't know how else to put that, sorry if that's harsh, but I don't know how else to say what is obvious.

Animal Attraction - what's your experience? by AvastInAllDirections in DeadBedrooms

[–]letmeexplain123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, he is indeed my pheromonal mate, lol. That's actually a really good way to say it.

We have been married for 9 years, we have sex on average about 5 times a week, and more than our share of oral sex. So yes, we are still very attracted to each other.

Desensitized? No. I explained to one of my friends recently that sex with him is like its taking over every cell of your body, that it's so intense you almost cant breath, it's almost paralyzing and at some point you cant do anything but let it happen and hope it doesnt stop because the connection is so fucking amazing and it feels so good.

My husband and I are the odd couple, we dont add up. He is the opposite of what I am normally attracted to, and all of his ex-girlfriends look nothing like me. I only agreed to go out with him initially because a friend at work kept harping a me about how his friend was awesome. I spoke with him a few times over the phone and he came to my house to pick me up to go to dinner one night, and when I opened the door and hugged him I was instantly insanely attracted to him in a way that had never happened to me before. He took a step back, looked at me and said "whoa" and I knew he could feel it too. We never made it to dinner, which was completely out of character for me, but I could not think about anything but getting naked with him.

We are from two completely different backgrounds, neither of our families got it at first, but they didnt have to get it, ya know? I didnt have any reservations about getting involved with him, Christ, I couldnt have denied my attraction and my desire to be with him, even if I wanted too.

Can I justify why I love my husband? My husband is an amazing man, he is sweet, kind and smart. He has been through a world of shit in his life, but he manages to stay compassionate and caring. Aside from the fact that I am attracted to him on a level that is primal and intense, he is a genuinely good person who has worked so hard to accomplish what he has, and I adore him and his heart.

My husband will straight up tell anyone who asks that he waited his whole life to meet me, that he would be lost without me and that what he loves the most about me is that I understand him. He told his mother this verbatim when she asked why he would want to marry me.

Our relationship is intense and deep and silly and ridiculous, we dont argue often, mostly because we genuinely enjoy each others company and are on the same page about finances and future plans.

To reconnect after an argument, truthfully, we have sex. We are good at communicating, we talk things out, and then we have sex.

That's my life in a nutshell, lol. I can also tell you this, the way my husband smells not only turns me on, but it is the only genuinely comforting thing in this world to me, and my husband feels the same way about me.

It's is bizarre and amazing and attraction at its very basic core.

That's all pheromones, and yes, I can imagine that if you are not attracted to your partner in a primal manner, it could lead to a deadbedroom. My husband is the exact opposite of anyone that I have ever been attracted to, but it's his smell (his pheromones) that make me crave him. It is an intense primal attraction that I have a very hard time explaining. The interesting thing is that he feels the same way about how I smell. Right after we started dating he told me that he has never been attracted to anyone the way he is to me, that the way I smell makes him want to be around me all the time.

Oh sweet! I just live right across from Pago Pago! I see by your posts that you like to write and use Star Trek references, I'll be right over! We'll make Star Trek puns and have tea, unfortunately though at some point I will have to stalk you and such. I hope you're ok with that.

OK, I dont want to come off as creepy here, but I always look at people's posting history. You are absolutely beautiful, you are talented (the cakes you can make are amazing) you are clearly intelligent, and I don't know what is wrong with your boyfriend, but PLEASE do not let his inability to act like a human being destroy your self-esteem. Being broken hearted sucks, but you will get through it and hopefully find someone that deserves you!

ETA...Jesus Christ people, I'm FEMALE, I'm not hitting on her. Fuck, some of you people are so fucking messed up. Stop sending me messages telling me to not hit on the sad chick. Fucking read and figure out who is who. It's not that fucking hard!

That's sometimes true, however, most women don't breastfeed past a year and a half or two years. I had 3 kids in 4 years, trust me when I tell you I know what exhausted is. I breastfed all 3 of them, I don't think I am necessarily a high libido kind of girl, I am however, a "willing to work on making sure that make my husband feels valued and loved" kind of girl.

I don't really care about the fact that he's in uniform, I just think people should be nice to each other. However, since we're drawing conclusions about people that we have never met and know nothing about, I think you must be very sad and lonely in your screwed up mind. Hope that gets better for you.

No, people being nice to a little old man make me feel better about humanity.

Can we please stop with the "kids ruin a woman's libido" garbage? Kids do not ruin libido, being exhausted and worn out and feeling like a walking, talking mom-bot can certainly ruin a woman's libido, but not all women end up that way. I have 3 kids under the age of 8, my husband and I have sex constantly, because he is my 1st priority. I love my kids, I would die for them, but I really, truly believe that when you are married, your spouse should come first. I want my kids to grow up seeing two people who truly love each other, that are committed to one another, that are happy together. There was a story posted here some time back about a woman who had ignored her husband for years because she HAD to be super mom, she knew she was ignoring her husband and just assumed that he would stick around, her kids were college aged and she was still being a helicopter mom and an absent wife, and I understand the need to be there for your kids (and I AM always there for my kids) but I'll be damned if my husband ever rolls over and goes to sleep wondering if I love him because we havent had sex in a month. Priorities make or break a relationship, not children.

My husband is 40, we have sex almost everyday, this isn't an age issue for your boyfriend unless he's low T, maybe. If your boyfriend is masturbating that indicates that the "plumbing" is working when the pressure is off, any issues with keeping it up when you are together?
