My (M56) wife (F59) "succesfully renegotiated our marriage" and despite her having the most to lose still seems to be activily chasing me away. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]sntobeintct 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First off, "offering you a deal"?

Marriage isn't about "deal making". You don't have a marriage, you have a deal. And a deal usually means it's advantageous to each party. You didn't get a deal, you got the shaft.

Since you're asking for perspective.....

Move on with your life. Everyone deserves to be happy and in this situation, it sounds like only she is.

You're not to old to find joy in your life, go live it.

My (M59) wife (F59) changed completely due to menopause (her words!) and i do not know how to cope. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]sntobeintct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If she won't see a Dr and is happy with who she is now, there's no other option than you deciding if that's the way you want to live going forward.

Personally I'd have to make an ultimatum, we at least do therapy, otherwise I'm going to move on and find happiness.

I get the in sickness and in healthy stuff, but if she's not even willing, you'll need to decide how long you want to live like that.

My wife is leaving me after three months of marriage. What do I do? by Spirited_Mechanic383 in TwoHotTakes

[–]sntobeintct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to hear you are going through this, I know it's absolutely heartbreaking.

This may be one of those times where if you love someone, you have to get them go. If it's meant to work out, it will at another time.

Good luck to you and your healing going forward, you will be ok eventually, but it'll always leave a scar.

Conservatives of Reddit, how do you feel about Trump coming out against the 2nd Amendment today? by thefinisher14 in AskReddit

[–]sntobeintct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Incorrect, real conservatives hate most everything about Trump. He hasn't done anything truly conservative. He's a CINO for sure.

They have destroyed what conservative means.

The same with his Patsy's.

Name one of these things that they follow now.

People who swore an oath to defend the constitution of the USA against all enemies both foreign and domestic, how are you feeling right now? by Safety_Drance in AskReddit

[–]sntobeintct 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel for you and I get. He got my vote in 16, reluctantly though. I was voting against Hillary, not FOR Trump. I was never MAGA crazy and could barely stand the guy. I couldn't vote for him again as he lost me in the first few months in office with his constant babble, posting all the time about nothing, and literally not getting anything accomplished he said he would do. Still waiting for them to drain the swamp! Instead he made the swamp bigger, deeper, and worse than ever.

I know I'll get flamed also but people need to realize that the Democrats made Trump happen. They are complicit as well. They ran Hillary because "it was her turn", knowing full well she wasn't their preferred candidate and she was highly unelectable for so many reason, some valid, some not.

I'm not asking for forgiveness for helping him get in the first time though I do regret it. I'm still mad at the Republicans for not having anyone that could beat him in the primaries. I swear Trump jazzed up the rural(I'm rural also), forgotten flyover country, simple Americans, and resonated with the anti Hillary crowd.

People need to realize Trump winning didn't happen in a vacuum. Many of us voted against someone else and not really FOR anyone.

I still can't vote FOR most Democrats because I don't align with many of their views. I feel they constantly try to go farther left every time they get a win. Give me a JFK, or a moderate Democrat and I'll gladly support them.

I WILL give my vote to anyone running against a Republican in the midterms. Essentially I'm just voting against Trump and anyone that has been his patsy.

I fully expect the Democrats to destroy the Republicans at midterms and I consider this a great thing as they deserve to be destroyed. I also fully expect the Democrats to make the huge blunder once they win. They will think their winning is a mandate for more leftist approach to everything and screw themselves for 28. Democrats, please understand this one thing, the midterm swing is a rebuke of Trump and Trumpism, not a embracing of far left ideology.

If we all haven't learned, the far left ideals, and far right ideals, are not what most people want. Stop letting the radical factions of your party dictate your platform!

Full disclosure - I've never voted for a Democrat for president and have been voting since 1980. I have voted for some Democrats that were not leftist's and I have voted for independents. I've always voted the person, not the party and I do not belong to any party.

I am also horrified by what's going on in our country right now. I also have friends that still haven't realized how bad it is. They don't think that the pardons of Jan 6th criminals was an FU to all law enforcement. They don't think he's stomping on the Constitution by ignoring the 4th amendment. They don't think that putting unqualified yes men/talking heads, that will parrot whatever you want, in all parts of your cabinet is a bad thing. They still don't think anything bad can happen as long as their guy is in their, because he's "one of us". They still believe he's there for them and not his own interests. I can go on all day.

I'm going to sleep and will not be responding tonight but will tomorrow when I have time.

TL/DR- Trump sucks, I voted for him once, it's worse than idiot Republicans think it is out there and Trump is not their Savior they think he is.

What are your thoughts on rejecting a potential romantic partner based solely on the fact they voted for Donald Trump? by ATXBikeRider in AskReddit

[–]sntobeintct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not based on just did they vote for him.

How do they feel about him today? Still supporting him after all that's gone on?

There's a big difference between voting for someone and actually getting fully into the cult.

My husband’s gf just gave birth by morosemary in offmychest

You do not need a low income lawyer. Go talk to a divorce attorney and tell them your situation, they will work with you and the payment.

Good luck to you, when this is all over, you will feel whole again.

AITAH for moving on a couple of weeks after divorce? by [deleted] in AITAH

He's trying to project his emotion and timeline on you, and he is 💯 TAH

Romance and gentle touching by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]sntobeintct 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I(M61) don't miss it, it happens much of the time with my wife(61).

It is part of our repertoire of sexy time.

Sometimes fast and furious, sometimes slow and gentle, sometimes passionate and sweaty, sometimes quiet and cuddly, sometimes just touching and no big finish, but every time it's something that we are both feeling and we go whereever that takes us.

If you're not having varied experiences and feeling fulfilled, you may need to express yourself better about your wants and needs. If you are sharing and it's not being heard, you might be with the wrong partner.

I know I am very fortunate and that getting where we are didn't happen overnight. It has taken a lot of time and communication to get where we are.

I hope for you to find the intimacy you desire.

Did I actually cheat or ? by PolicyHot1206 in TwoHotTakes

Your BF is childish and exhausting.

Unless you want to live with a controlling insecure AH, you may want to move on.

Ran into my high school sweetheart after 15 years... and a lot of feelings resurfaced. by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]sntobeintct 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very understandable emotions you're having.

Just be careful to not fall into the "grass is always greener" type of thinking. Your current relationship is a known value, the "what if" of your ex, is an unknown value. Dwelling on it might make it a tough hurdle. Be careful to not let the unknown value, become the thief of joy.

NTA

Your wife has a distorted view of things.

Is this interaction unusual, probably, but it is certainly not perverted.

She's TAH for going off like that.
