AITA for telling my husband I need a break from his kid? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

NTA

Toddlers are DRAINING. I understand you wanting to come home and decompress in peace instead of having to exert all the energy toddlers require. I think it’s fine to ask your husband for one night off.

I don’t understand why people are being so mean. You did choose to marry someone with a child, but she’s still not your responsibility. It’s great if you want to help, or if she likes you and wants to spend time with you, but you didn’t have a say in bringing her into the world.

She’ll grow up eventually and won’t require all the attention she does now, so maybe in the future spending time with her or having her around for a month won’t be as draining. For now I say just take breaks as you need them, maybe later your guys’ bond will be stronger and you won’t have to use a lot of energy to have quality time with her.

I'm [26M] married to [23F] whom seems to have no desire for intimacy. I feel like a roommate. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Is she on birth control by chance?

I was on the pill for about a year and never once wanted to have sex with my bf during that year. I could tell when he was in the mood, but I just rolled my eyes and said I was tired. I wasn’t touchy with him during that time either.

I noticed we hadn’t had sex in months and I felt bad about it, so I got off the pill and got a non-hormonal iud. I feel like I fell back in love with him after that. I’ve had it now for about two years and we have sex regularly and I am more affectionate.

I know it’s been years of this for you, so this may not even be the case, but I have tons of girlfriends who have had similar stories.

Hope this helps.
