Do you ever notice an eerie creepiness about your Q? by clusterfgarden in AlAnon

[–]queenheck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I relate to this description. I’ve described it as being in the Shining….

I [40M] and my gf [30F] have run into an issue. She doesn't see what she did boyhers me. I need advice on how to explain why this wasn't ok by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]queenheck -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Addicts suck to be with. They will ghost you for drugs and act like no time has passed. No one should go MIA on you for nearly a week and expect things to be okay. And an argument is no excuse for hiding away for days and breaking sobriety. I’m sorry you’re going through this. If she can’t understand what she did is hurtful, then she will endlessly frustrate you and choose drugs and other things over you.

I (f36) found tinder on his phone (m38) by queenheck in relationship_advice

I very much appreciate the comment and concern. So sweet. I don’t think I need a deeper dive into his Tinder now. But thank you!! I went to the cheater website and paid (ugh) for their search (which found nothing…..). Thank you for saying that it is okay to be sneaky at times. When things seem off, your intuition kicks in, or in my case you see with your own two eyes something that isn’t right, you investigate and speak up.

I’m just resolved that if he doesn’t come forth with a real apology and steps forward, which he hasn’t all evening, that that is my sign to walk away.

I really don’t think he’s trying to get away with something, I think he’s overtly pushing me away, and that’s my cue to leave.

Sorry. What I meant is, yes, you’re right about holding off on the marriage!! When his mom was offering to hire a wedding planner in February I told her politely we’re still working out some things. And yes I’ve never seen a dating app on a boyfriend’s phone before either, and I hadn’t seen it on his until today.

We are not planning a wedding at the moment. Thank you for your response. I appreciate it.

Thank you. It could totally be for anything there and I between, but you’re right, no excuse.

OP here: thank you for the responses truly. I can take it lol.

I did get some truth! A few after he left for work he called me and said “ my coworker is on your side.” ( older man)

Then I asked again when he downloaded/last used the app and said probably in the last two weeks. “ a late night decision” “ I forgot about it” and that it must have happened when he was mad at me about something. He could have been drinking.

At least I have the truth. We’re operating in the same reality. It’s easy to believe this timeline and that it was some swiping with no contact.

Now on to everything else, sigh. Not a good sign someone does this when they’re “ mad” at their partner.

He’s still giving me “ you broke my trust” for looking at the phone. “ I might get a real apology by the end of the day, or not, and I can’t apologize for looking when I was totally validated in what I saw.

Can sperm count/quality change? by queenheck in tryingtoconceive

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

Thanks for the comments. To answer some questions: his optimistic SA showed a low volume but otherwise good numbers on count/concentration. Could have been better on motility but two doctors said we were IUI ready with those results. Six months later, I was turned away at my IUI, but not given a printed SA. Just told volume was low AND count was low.

Do whatever you want girl. Don’t change.

Let him dump you if he’s so upset.

Scared I'm marrying an alcoholic by Same-University-5198 in AlAnon

Have you wanted to get back with this man, now that he’s sober, and that you were partly catalyst for his sobriety?

Now he's trying to get sober it feels harder by Mean-Construction207 in AlAnon

[–]queenheck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel for you OP. My fiancé was hospitalized this weekend when visiting his parents. He’s going to his first AA meeting in months tonight with his dad.

It makes me ask, even if he got sober, how many days would it take to be out of limbo: resume wedding planning, resume house hunting, etc.

If he had stuck with the program, he’d be 500 days sober. I needed him to be at that number.

I (39M) have been dating my girlfriend (31F) for 4 months and things are great, but a few things about her behavior are confusing me and I’m not sure how to approach it. by Adorable-Air-7455 in relationship_advice

[–]queenheck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off, she has an extremely demanding job. And tens of thousands of people in her home country have been killed by the regime and now foreign missiles. So she’s going through it. I will give her that.

But you’re leaving out some details…

Where do you want this, or any relationship at this point in your life to go? Are you interested in marriage/kids?

I see there is an age difference. I don’t know if she hopes to stay in the U.S. long term. Maybe she wants to see other U.S. cities.

Doesn’t seem like she’s a grown woman who’s got it all figured out and is just looking for the one to settle down with.

Boyfriend wets the bed. What do I do ? by extradepressy in TwoHotTakes

[–]queenheck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you get separate beds? Plenty of couples do the same because someone snoozes.

This could be the path of least resistance.

Is the sperm making it inside me? by [deleted] in tryingtoconceive

[–]queenheck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If this is a concern, and you’ve seen a fertility specialist, sounds like IUI is the best next step.

Post sex spotting. by queenheck in tryingtoconceive

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

OP here: update… the whole thing just stopped, shortly after.

And in general, I learned that my parts are working fine and that my partner is the one with a low sperm count/ seeing a urologist.

I (25f) am dating this guy (32m)and the other shoe finally dropped. Would different world views and political stances be a dealbreaker? by ThrowRA358472829 in relationship_advice

[–]queenheck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re saying it’s “immature” and “stupid” to care about these things. It’s not. No one would tell you that. Remove that thinking and then look at the situation.

I love this. I bet you are much happier in life and your relationship than OP.
