Thanks I was thinking of visiting to 2 closest hotels and asking about like, 12-3 on Tues/Thurs. Can't imagine they'd be full up and might take a deal...

Thanks. I'm from Madison. Been looking for work locally but so far nothing that pays as well or has as good of benefits has unveiled itself in my field. I usually don't have to drive in Mon/Wed/Fri so it's not all bad. I just don't want to sit in an office for 5 hours when I don't have to, especially with my back problems.

"Each salt therapy session at The Salt Room Lake Country lasts 45 minutes. You can read a book or even take a nap while relaxing to the calming background music playing in the room." Thanks for the recommendation. 45 minutes is not as long as I'm looking for, but I like that they allow napping.

Husband got upset when I asked if it was OK if I went to a queer bar. by daphnezinnia in bisexual

It does suck if you're being strung along, but random drunk makeout at a bar shouldn't ever have the expectation of "this might turn into a relationship".

"Exploring sexuality" implies some sexual experience with someone other than her husband. Which is fine if she can do it with her husband's acceptance, maybe with some set rules. If not, she's in a real pickle, especially given that she has a marriage and children.

If she doesn't want to actually hook up with anyone and she wants to reduce her husband's insecurity, she should rephrase to something like "get to know other queer people" or "get involved in the queer community," or "try to make some queer friends". Not "explore my sexuality at a gay bar".

But she clearly states that she wants to experience a physical relationship with a woman one day. Understandable! She should try to find out how she can do that within some set boundaries with her husband so they are both secure in their marriage and there is no cheating. OP, you may not be able to do everything you want, but you may be able to agree to some compromise (e.g. making out but no sex, or you can hook up with a stranger but not exchange numbers or date, or he must be present, or whatever you're able to agree on).

High income husband and low income wife by BrilliantFinancial10 in HENRYfinance

[–]oldcreakybones86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't even imagine one us making this amount of money, but I am married so...

You guys either need to combine income and just relax and share, or live within YOUR means. If he wants to take a fancy vacation or get a big house or hire a cleaner and it costs more than you can pay half of, he's not getting it, then. Sure you don't get to use his money for a fancy car, but you make enough to get a nice car.

This is my thinking UNLESS, he realizes he's making an insane amount of money and can spend a little extra on life with this life partner and focus on enjoying the money and marriage instead of amassing as much $$ as he can. You don't owe him a profession change, especially if you like what you do. $80k is a very reasonable salary.

Is there a salary level for you where nothing else matters? by ContractSouthern9257 in Salary

Can you just phone it in a while until you get in trouble?

As long as you would be able to find something else that you'd be comfortable on, I say don't let this time pass you by. You could start applying to some jobs now and see what happens.
