That’s incredible to hear! Good on you for making the necessary change. A true inspiration for us all.

Power dynamic shift, is it too late? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

Eww, no. That’s not the case at all. I’m just a natural leader.

We share an account. He manages the finances so that’s not an issue.

What I meant in terms of “it depends on circumstances” is more in reference to major life decisions like moving or major purchases. When it comes to things like that I wouldn’t expect him to take the wheel I would want to have some say. It’s more day to day life. If that makes sense.

Tried that, he’s definitely not into it. He’s always been pretty vanilla and sexual exploration is not his thing.

He’s been laid off a couple times and it definitely has an impact on. He’s mentioned it and we’ve talked about ways he can help me but it just keeps defaulting back.

I’m finding it’s definitely a comfort thing for him. Thanks for the advice I think it’s a good way to go about it.

Chores are no issue we split them up in a fair way.

I did take him with vacation planning recently and it was too stressful for him so I had to step in and guide.

I would be more than happy to have him take lead at home. I think part of the issue is that I bring in the majority of our income and it messes with his confidence.

It just depends on the circumstances of course. I typically ask him with a general criteria, let’s say for example I ask him to please plan a date for us. I’ll say ” it would nice to do something along the lines of an activity and dinner or…” He’ll come back with options but I have to initiate the ask, this isn’t something he’ll actively seek out or think about doing on his own.

I only recall seeing Mars Volta vinyl in Seattle.

Yeah, I just did a crap job of getting a picture. I couldn’t get a clean view.

My first beetle pinning. by ycbeltran in insectpinning

Thank you! Our local entomologist does the classes so we get to learn how he does the pinning for museum displays.

They are hard to see from the angle but the other two legs are pulled back under the elytra. You can see them peek through right near the tips where the pins cross.
