    The Girls Who Broke Your Heart Thread

    Fair enough. We can agree it would mean she's not attractive, right? I'm guessing he was trying to say she's good at keeping house rather than his wife is a 5 or below.

    Did you really mean homely, which is a nice way of saying ugly? Or did you mean she has good domestic skills?

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Her being up front was the right move, but her frame of mind wasn't proper. If this trip is more important than the relationship, have some class and end the relationship. Don't demean your partner and propose what you assume to be a one-sided open relationship. No one acted unreasonably...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    It was funny how she presents the whole thing as "best intentions", overlooking the obvious reaction any partner would have to their SO telling them random eurobanging is significantly more important to them than their current relationship. And even better that she readily admits it was...

    Phaz mostly covered it, but you can look however you want of course. Just don't be shocked when you have lip piercings and red devil horn hair when crazy finds you. Sure, normal may find you as well. But the higher likelihood is crazy. And if you are digging it, then no problem. Your kids...

    Maybe god would be kinder to Onoes if he didn't present himself like a 14 year old emo kid in a doughy 35 year old's body. Then again, Onoes is getting laid on the regular. Doesn't matter had sex.

    Yeah, that sucks. If she's willing to take it seriously and work on it (with a professional), perhaps things could get fixed. But it's going to be an uphill battle. On the other side, getting a divorce sucks too. And if you two lawyer up and fight, it will be a long, ugly, expensive...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Depression is hard to describe and hard to relate to if you have not dealt with it. Is she willing to see a counselor and/or doctor to get help with her depression? Have you told her about how serious things have gotten, straight to the point (ex. if things keep going this way, I don't see...

    This thread had developed a purpose over time: the sharing of divorce experiences (with some follow up on dating post-divorce) and husband/wife interaction venting. Lately, it has been a complete spill-over of GWBYH material. I enjoy both threads, but I come here for a different purpose. It...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    This is confusing. If I brush off sex, it is probably because she pissed me off, I don't feel well, etc. My attraction to her doesn't change on a minute-to-minute basis. Not in the mood can turn into the mood, it's just a bigger hurdle to jump the get started if I'm unhappy with her. Are...

    There does sound like there is room for compromise here. It may be that it's hard on her, as someone who enjoyed working hard, to see you furthering your career and education while she entertains children all day. Best of luck, I hope you are able to get things to a better place.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Communication can be hard, especially if the two of you are (possibly unintentionally) doing things that make it hard for the other to talk about their problems. This is where a counselor could help assuming, as others said, you both actually want to work on things and fix them. If nothing...

    Agreed, though I'm not qualified to diagnose anyone. I hope she does follow through and see the counselor. It may uncover some problems that the two of you could resolve through a counselor and get things back on track. Because the situation you are describing sounds like the fast track to...

    As I recall, she was unstable as shit and threatened either McCheese, herself, or both of them with a knife. Possibly more than once. The likelihood that it was going to end in violence either against McCheese or herself was off the charts. McCheese is a wise bro.

    Any idea if they've had some chats and lined up on the important marriage issues, like religion, kids, money, etc? If not, pre-maritial counseling would probably be very helpful. A lot of churches offer it, as well as most marriage counselors. It can save you finding out some big time deal...

    I've personally had difficulties with anxiety attacks in a few situations, and speaking from experience, it is very hard on your partner because they typically have no idea a) how awful the feeling is when you have one and b) why the seemingly mundane situation triggered you. So the partner...
