My partner and I have been together 4 years. We have 2 children. Our sex life dropped off a bit after our first child, my son was born. Became about once a week, in bed with the lights off missionary which was very different from what it was before. She even seemed to remember our old sex life differently from me. This upset me and I'd talk to her about it, and she seemed to take it personally. Nothing changed. Then our second child came along just recently. The pregnancy was hard on her... I've been stupid ..read more

I apologize for starting a second thread on the same topic (the first was called something like "one question for the men and another for the women" or something like that) but obviously, this is something I'm still struggling with. I have always had a hard time "keeping my eyes to myself". Y'all should have seen me when I was a kid, I wasn't even subtle. I'd be walking down a hall at school with a girl with a cute keister in front of me and next to me a guy would tap me and say, "You...

My mom (55) and her bf (58) met through dating app. He's a respected engineer. They hit it off right away. I live in the opposite side of the U.S. so I never got to know him that much, but three months ago me and my boyfriend visited them and spent 5 days with them. We had an amazing time and he seemed like a great guy. He respected my mom, was gentle, funny, and seemed intelligent. Anyway, some things about their relationship kind of seemed off from the beginning, even my bf was a little... My mom’s bf seemed awesome but turns out he was WEIRD. I’m heartbroken ..read more

Currently I have had to take two jobs due to a "forced" career change - basically I was let go due to downsizing and needed to make as much as the original job that I held for over 26 years. During that time, which was four years ago, I was without a job for close to six months and needed to borrow money against my 401k to pay for the family's expenses and am now paying it back, thus the two jobs. On another note, our family has six in it, with four being teenagers that all drive and need... Wife upset about my third job's money ..read more

So some background. Spouse and I started dating in 2001, got married in 2007, the birth of three children followed (2008,2010,2012). There has been some major breaks in trust from/and not being monogamous on her part. We got divorced in 2021 (I filled as we did a separation and she was seeing another guy). So besides the infidelity’s that has to be worked through (I’m giving her another chance). The current problem I/We have is that we don’t agree on some basic things. I guess it comes down... Am I wrong or out of bounds ..read more

The "Do you tell your spouse everything?" thread had thinking, do you and your spouse share your phone GPS location with each other? (I did a similar post years ago, don't remember the verdict.) We do, primarily to integrate with home automation software. I don't actually look where she is unless I'm meeting her somewhere or I know she's going somewhere "far" or unfamiliar. When I still worked she used my location to know when to get the cocktails started ..read more

For years I've always been the happy, jovial, outgoing, always the talkative, life of the party type of guy. An extrovert. My wife, on the other hand, is an introvert. She hates crowds. If we go anywhere there are people we know once the event is over she's ready do to. We go to church and the minute the benediction is given then she makes a bee-line to the car. She doesn't want to just hang around and talk. We don't hang out with her family at all and when I hang out with my family... Do you tell your spouse everything ..read more

Today is my 5 year anniversary and I’ve never felt more out of love. I don’t even know that my husband would have acknowledged our anniversary, had I not gotten him a very inexpensive but thoughtful and meaningful card/gift. In previous years he always at least got me a card, this year, nothing nor even said anything to acknowledge other than ask me why I got him anything at all… On top of that, I’m 32 weeks pregnant with our first child. All he has done over the past few weeks (including... Feeling unsupported and unloved with no clue how to fix ..read more
