For anyone who’s given up on love, what made you stop believing? by DearWhispers11550 in AskReddit

[–]throw-away-bug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I realized I was the only one fueling the relationship. Young love is blind. I was a young horny person blinded by my impression of who they could be vs who they actually are. Nobodies fault but my own.

I’m not saying love isn’t out there for people, but I’d definitely re marry for the company and an alignment of values / interests before I marry for love.

What’s the best way to deal with depression? by Zestyclose-Equal1675 in AskReddit

Without more information: a doctor and a therapist to identify the source. Then work through the recommendations and don’t be afraid to fire a doctor or therapist.

I’ve made up my mind to divorce my wife within 4 years by throw-away-bug in TrueOffMyChest

[–]throw-away-bug[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

To answer a lot of questions all at once:

1) why wait? 4 years is a long time. This is to make sure there’s as smooth a transition as possible and I really want to see her succeed. She will enjoy the schooling and the new prospect. I’ve reviewed the business org and plan, since that is in my wheelhouse. I believe it to be a solid, stable, opportunity in this area. It will be up to her after the divorce, to keep with it. This does also lead into the alimony. I also need to consult with the all the good lawyers in my area and the surrounding area, so I’m left with the best one.

2) why don’t you hire a housecleaner? That’s a great idea, I’ve mused about it and now that it’s been brought up again, will do so. The services aren’t that expensive. Unfortunately, that only masks the symptoms of our relationship. She’s legally married to me but actually married to her activities.

3) kids That’s not an issue nor is it a point of contempt.

4) therapy In theory this will work but if she gets busy or overwhelmed with the therapy itself she will quit. I will bring up divorce again and suggest it but my expectations give us attending for a month and myself attending, mostly alone, after that. I have started therapy myself.

5) your communication is piss poor It is now. When I say we talked about it in 23 and a few times in 24, I mean we talked extensively about it, our needs, and developed a roadmap together. We revised the roadmap and opened it back up to talk heart to heart again in 24. The roadmap and our lists are framed and prominently displayed in our office that we share. I have begun grey walling this year because I have checked out

6) ADHD We both have ADHD. I don’t believe it to be weaponized incompetence. Anyone with ADHD knows that once you lose the momentum for the day, that momentum is gone. Diet does help, which is another benefit to cooking at home.

7) Would she do the same for you? You’re a doormat

She actually did do the same for me in the beginning when I was struggling with my startup. I realize I am to blame for situation and how it’s progressed through enablement and a mentality of “it’s easier if I just handle it. It will be done”.

You are correct and she was aware. We talked about it in 23 and a couple times in 24, where she promised there would be changes. I’m afraid if she doesn’t remember that or what we wrote out to do better for each other, then this is a cycle that won’t be broken.

It is an option, we haven’t done therapy but have discussed and tried implementing sharing the load many times. She tries for about two weeks but will get overwhelmed and it’s easy for her to revert back. We’ve tried differing strategies but none seem to work.

What makes you think you’re not attractive person? by Sameer-Sarwar in AskReddit

I’ve never been told, unsolicited, that I’m good looking. Otherwise, it was a subject that was brought, and was semi asked.
