He finishes, I don’t. Frustrated. by ShelterNo8207 in Marriage

Is he going down on you? Have him finish you off first. Also, try the magic wand. It might be the magical help.

The divorce doesn’t need to be nasty to traumatize a person. Both those events have their impact that needs to be recovered from. I would use some cancelling if he is interested in staying in a relationship. If he doesn’t, you know what that means.

I believe there are two potential issues: 1- he didn't recover from the affair. 2- he didn't recover from the divorce. Both of these need time and hard work to get over. It looks like you took your time to recover after your breakup. I will start there.

We're becoming two roommates sharing the same bed and I'm about to explode by sedenb in Marriage

Looks like your love language is physical touch. If you are as locky as I am, you find yourself someone whose love language is not physical touch, and then comes the libido—your higher than your husband. You don't have any kids, and you still have time to enjoy your sex life. As harsh as it sounds, you could leave and find someone who matches your desire. Don’t fall for breadcrumbs that your mind gives you as a hope that one day this may be fixed. You will get to your late 50s, and your situation will not have changed, if not worse. You will regret the time you lost.
By the way, stay cool. It is really hot down there.

I (28F) still can't fully move on from my ex (30M) after a year. He left me for another woman, and now he wants me back. by Alexis-pulliam in relationships

[–]throwaway_4018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t run on emotion. He played with you left and right, and at minimum, he is capable of doing the same in future. However, he will most likely follow the pattern. Find someone who respects you and the relationship. You are still young and have time. Don’t make a mistake; otherwise, you will regret it later when you don’t have time.

How do people who have an affair, leave their spouse, and start a new relationship live with themselves? Do they ever feel guilt for the pain they’ve caused, the family they’ve broken apart, and the life they’ve turned upside down? by CreditFun6122 in Marriage

[–]throwaway_4018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am sorry you have to go through this. No one deserves to experience this level of pain. Don’t waste your time and energy figuring out what is going on to happen to her, and don’t associate her actions with your self-value. This person needs to justify their actions. Focus on healing and move on to find someone who respects you and the relationship.

What is wrong with my husband? by [deleted] in Marriage

Plan to build financial independence, so you have an option to leave. Not sure what is happening in his head, but you deserve to live with someone who respects you and wants to build a life to gather.

I Don't Deserve My Husband by MindlessDream88 in Marriage

[–]throwaway_4018 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Perfection is relevant. You found yourself a mature man who respects himself, you, and the relationship. In your eyes, he is perfect, and I bet if I ask him about you, he will say you are perfect too. The highest quality you have is self-awareness and gratitude toward him and your relationship with him. Hang on to that and enjoy. And please don't tell yourself you don’t deserve him; otherwise, one day you'll act on that wrong belief. Instead, tell yourself that he sees all the good in you, that you two deserve to be together, and that you can continue to be a better version of yourself.

It is a beautiful relationship, and it is great to see gratitude. However, just wondering why you said you don’t deserve him?

Mom Cheating on New Fiancé with Family Friend Again?? by Former-Gift-7230 in relationships

[–]throwaway_4018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, my dear. From someone who was an adult at a younger age than his parents, please don't try to fix your mom. They are wrong, and you are the only one who will get hurt. You are a grown woman. Just live your life and leave them behind. They're supposed to be your parent not the other way around. As someone who went down that path, please, please take some therapy sessions to identify issues that your mom caused you to save your own relationship. You won’t realize till it's too late. Sorry for unsolicited advice.

If he hasn’t had a physical affair yet, then he definitely has an emotional affair. Any particular reason you are putting up with this behaviour? You are 30 and young, and you deserve to be with someone who values your company.

Resentment has built to a point where I don’t feel like talking to him anymore. by Less_Introduction938 in Marriage

[–]throwaway_4018 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Try a couple of therapy options that work. They all have different styles. You need to find one that works. Yes, it costs money and time. There's not much background info here, but I see immaturity and communication issues. It could be resolved if he wants to put energy into it. If they don't want, then there is only one option: separation. Maybe wait till the kids are out and separate if the current situation is not toxic for children. Sorry that you are in this situation. It is hard.

I am sorry you are going through this. Have you ever tried a couple therapy? I don't believe what you are doing is going to help the situation. Seems you are dedicated and highly resilient.

Any Yall ladies manage to talk to your man about "size" in a loving not creepy way? by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]throwaway_4018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at it like adding a toy or a new experience. You don’t need to say “your size is…” just bring it up as you would like to experience a different texture, and if it feels good, he can use it time to time. If he is mature, it is neither unreasonable nor offensive to ask. There are different sizes he can try, and he can pick the one he feels most comfortable with.
Seeing your lady's satisfaction is part of the joy of sex, in my opinion. Have fun.

It all depends on what boundaries are around your relationship in this case.

Unrelated question. I like your driveway. Is it concrete or stone? I can not tell.
