I want my marriage to be amazing again...

Im not even sure how to put this into words... I can’t imagine my life without my husband. I love him unconditionally, when we’re good, we’re REALLY good.... But since the start of this year it has been really rocky. I don’t even know how it has gotten so bad, but sometimes I feel like I don’t even know him anymore. I feel like all we do is fight lately. I don’t even know how to get us back to being good at this point since it has been so long that we just aren’t “good.” We have one child who’s in the toddler years. I work full time and so does he. I do everything from taking our daughter to school, picking her up, clean, cook every night, laundry, dog related duties, etc. He helps out, sometimes, mainly only when he’s asked. I will say he’s amazing with our child once he’s home. He plays with her, teaches her, and loves her. He use to be amazing with me too.... WE were amazing together. Sometimes I feel like I must be the problem because I’m the only one who’s ever upset with things.

Marriage is a Job

I been married about a year and I'm already just about ready to throw in the flag. No matter what I do it's never right and it's just to many arguments. Most of them start just because I didn't do something my wife says do immediately after her saying it. I'm only 23 and if I wanted to be told what to do all the time I might as well live my parents, and they didn't even trip as much as she does.

My husband's job transfer is killing us. (Third shift advice?)

Hey all. So, my husband used to work 20 minutes from home- home by 3pm, but due to an impending plant closure, was transferred 1-1.5 hours away 5 or 6 days a week, on third shift. We are planning to move closer to work after the school year ends to lessen commute, but until then... ​ We have kids in all stages, so thankfully we have built in babysitters, but the once a week with him either falling asleep or up all night just isn't working. It's so incredibly lonely. He leaves after the kids are in bed and sleeps either until dinner, or later, depending on how late he stays up in the morning. It's just myself and the toddler most of the day, then me and kids all evening. On the days he's home, I get so excited to go to bed with him/wake up next to him to prevent a deadbedroom, but I end up going to bed alone, or he gets up in the middle of the night because he can't sleep (a lot of times, it's both). Needless to say, sex is rare these days as well. I am incred

Just got married and my husband is giving me ill feelings already

We just got married last December. My husband has issues when it comes to financial matter. He doesn't tell me how much he's earning, he doesn't give me money and doesn't let me handle the budgeting (I'm a stay at home mom I just gave birth a month ago) but he pays the bills, he buys what I need (sort of) Also, we moved out from my own house (with my mom, who gets into his nerves. He hates her, I can see it) and my 1st daughter (a love child) lives with us but we have to leave them behind and live in his grandparents' house with his aunt and 2 uncles. I don't feel comfortable there, I barely go out of the room since I'm taking care of our newborn 24/7 , I miss my mom, my kid and my home. What should I do? I'm unhappy and I overthink all the time, I think I might have a post partum depression. BTW, my husband saved me from my drug addiction a year ago. He was the one who stood by me and never gave up on me. Someone enlighten me. Please. Submit

Frustrations with a Stay at Home Wife

I'm been frustrated lately with my wife's lack of effort at home. We're both 37years old. Three kids in school. She stays at home and does the cooking, cleaning, and soccer practice driving. I work 40+ hours at my day job, plus a 6-8hrs a week on a side-gig, plus renovation work on our 100+ year old house, plus maintenance and management of a rental house…all to make the finances work. Most evenings I'm also picking up after the kids, doing whatever cleaning didn't get done, and putting kids to bed. ​ I'm tired. ​ I love my wife. We get along. She's a good mother. Sex is great. Awesome chef. But the housework is falling apart while she's out shopping, going for walks, or doing her workouts (1hr plus every day!) while the kids at school. Anyone else in this boat? What have you done to help change behavior? We've talked about her getting a job, but she keeps saying she's really enjoying staying at home right now and being heavily involved in t

What to do?

Okay, this is my first time posting here. I’ve looked through the post but haven’t found something that was relatable. Is it irrational to fear becoming pregnant by your spouse? How do you overcome it? I know it sounds silly and it is. For more information, my older sibling and I had to be mom and dad for our younger sibling, he has Autism, due to our parents being negligent. I’m naturally a care giver but I get burned out and was. So in my mind, I’ve already put in the time and don’t want to do it again until I’m ready. However, there are something’s I’ve noticed since we’ve been married and I’m not sure if I can manage being someone’s “mother” again. I’ve spoke with his mother to get a better understanding of how he was growing up. I think that and me being his first and me being his only girlfriend plays a role, he went straight from his mom to having a wife. I’m in no rush for kids, I’m just worried about the future. To add more context we’ve been together for almost five years a

Times you thought your marriage wouldn't last

I'm in a tough spot with my husband. We've been married for three years, we have two kids. Our boy is turning three next month and our girl just turned one in February. My husband has always liked to go out to bars and hang out with his friends. I would say that if it wasn't for this, we wouldn't fight at all. We don't argue over day to day things, we get along really well. He just likes to go out and he always has. There's been times he has slowed down when it's really started to strain us. It isn't so much an alcohol thing with him, it's a always wanting to be around people thing. He is very social, a nice guy, really likes to be liked. He is 42, I am 28. He works on the road most of the time during the week. Some weeks its leave on Monday morning, come home Friday afternoon. It's pretty rare that he's home all week. Sometimes it's only a night or two, lately it's been all week. I bartend on the weekends, Friday and Saturday so th

My husband isnt the handy one

Obviously I can't lift as much as my husband, but when it comes to tasks anywhere from mounting a TV to assembling furniture to making custom pieces, simple maintenance, power tools, etc etc I'm (25F) the handy one, not my husband. My dad has always been handy and showing me things. out of my older brother, and younger sister, I'm the only one my dad could teach since I was the only one capable and receptive to it. Well my husband had a different upbringing and is learning nooowww (28M) a lot of simple skills like making pancakes and finding studs in walls (although there's more tech for that now..just to compare the life skill and tech skill). I'm also more willing to do more tedious tasks like grout cleaning and trimming bushes, and he's more open to watering the yard and plants and doing surface cleaning. It doesn't bother me. But it bothers him. His friends rag on him for it a lot "dude your WOMAN builds the furniture? Your LADY is mounting the

The woman I'm dating won't talk to me..

So I'm 38m she's 24. When we hang out or talk on the phone she really clams up. She says she likes me a lot but I see her taking to other people and wonder why she doesn't talk to me in the same way. When we're together or on the phone she literally will only respond to me in one word answers or euphemisms. She doesn't initiate conversations and doesn't really contribute to anything socially. We have sex and laugh sometimes but mostly she just stays quiet. I'm not sure why. She says she just draws a blank or she doesn't have stories that compare to mine but either way she doesn't share anything. I'm not sure if it's because she's intimidated or because she just doesn't connect with me in that way but thinks I would make a good father for her daughter or husband for her later in life. I feel life she's not into me but wants to keep me around. I like her alot and see potential but she's not opening up. It's been about 4 mon

My crush, She’s Mormon and can’t date yet. :(

I’m (14M).So there’s this girl I really, really, really like(15F). She’s so beautiful and one of the kindest people I’ve ever met. She brings a smile to my face every time I see her. I talk to her a bit and would very much like to date her. Last year I was asked who I like and I blurted out her name unknowingly with her right there. I feel like things might get awkward if she finds out I still like her. To bad she’s Mormon. She can only date when she’s 16 and she’s currently 15. How do I charm her without seeming weird for a while just until she can date. And when she can date, how should I ask her out.

Reddit users I have a big question..

So my girlfriend and I broke up and it was bad like real bad and so ever since the day it happens I haven’t spoken to her, only because after a relationship I personally can’t be friends. So it’s been 4 months and she texts me congratulating me on one of my life accomplishments.. I want to say thanks but idk I might sound like an asshole cause I understand I can be but in my head I feel as if it’ll be better for her and easier for her to erase me as a terrible ex she hates rather then the guy friend she questions whether or not I like her back or an awkward situation when I do get into another relationship.. I understand my way of going about a break up is different but u was with her for 4 years and it was real and I can’t and don’t want to be with her anymore and I’ve accepted that for my personal state and I feel that if we r still friends my mind will be to filed with the thought of making sure i don’t do anything to show that I like her and possibly misinterpreted my friendship.

How do I meet anyone [M19]

I just finished my freshman year at University and I've only met a few people. I've never really had too many friends that I hangout with like 2 or 3 outside of school. It's never really bothered me until this year when I realized I don't know anybody. I usually just show up to class do my work then leave and I don't talk to anyone. I've never had a girlfriend or had sex or really a first kiss. I've never gone to parties or been invited probably because I don't talk to people.

Tinder match texts me all day everyday for a month... but wont date. HALP!

I (34M) installed Tinder a month ago again... have to say I always end up deleting the app because I get bored of texting with low quality girls (sugar daddy huntress and desperate for attention/followers babes or super hot scorts) and the really interesting ones, are taken really fast. Like the next day or 10min after the match! Used Tinder and matched with some girls the same day. My luck, one of those matches (34F) reminds me we studied at the same highschool. Asked her for her phone number and we've been texting for a month and a half now. I tried to ask her out many times, but she travelled for weeks and now that she's back... keeps on texting daily but avoids my calls. Last weekend she went to a wedding... with a 'friend' of hers. Told me she didn't want to go and did not allow pictures with him. Maybe I'm too oldschool but correct me if I'm wrong... those are red flags right? I mean, she clearly wants something casual (at least that's what mos

I mean.. I just not that good with relationships.. or girls of that matter

I've been dating this girl for 3-4 months. As a side note- we dated for nearly a year in high school. 9 years later, here I am.. here we are.. Shit, idk where to start. I've been through my own 'shenanigans' and she's been through hers. She's been divorced and I well.. jail, drugs.. ya name it. We were different people then we're different people now. I mean when your just not good with relationships and you just not good with women in general, how do you proceed. I've been doing my best to become a better person but it almost seems like that just won't be enough in the end.

I get tired of girls saying I’m out of their league

The girls I talk to say I’m out of their league and won’t give me a chance, probably because they think I just want them for sex, and then there are the girls who are out of my league who I A. don’t even try for or B. Hit up, and they find a way of severing contact. Can’t I just find someone who thinks they deserve me and I deserve them? Now granted, body-wise I guess you could say I’m in the top 0.1% of guys, but I really don’t care if the female I’m talking to is average or below average, I just want someone who I can connect with. Example A, my last and only girlfriend thought I was with her just for sex because of my appearance and kept telling me I should find somebody better, because she wanted to take things slow. I had absolutely no problem with it, and just loved making out and what not with her, but she kept questioning why I even chose her EDIT: A majority of the ones on dating apps think I’m a Catfish until they ask me to Snapchat them Submitted May 02, 2019 at 05:36A

How soon is too soon to jump into another relationship?

I had been dating this girl for 3 years and it recently came to an end. The last year was spent long distance and things got hard.

Well after the break up I was sad, so I called her up and asked her to go out. We did and hand an amazing time. Should I pursue her further or take more time to myself after my breakup?

She admitted she has HPV and I have no idea what to do. I told her it wasn’t a deal breaker and it really didn’t bother me.

I cheated on my boyfriend with Mr XYZ while working abroad. Should I and Mr XYZ be connected on social media/ be contactable with each other?

Hi guys I know I'm a disgusting person, I cheated on my boyfriend while i was working abroad, with Mr XYZ. At that time, Mr XYZ was also attached with his girlfriend (they are currently still together). It happened in between September to october 2017. It has been quite sometime already. From November 2017 to April 2019, we havent met. We have been breaking off contact with each other - blocking on whatsapp / telegram / facebook /instagram. But somehow, after awhile, one of us would reach out, and we re-connect again.. just asking about each other. Anyway, till today, I am still feeling a little trapped. Being in contact with him constantly reminds me of our one off cheating affair, yet we are still in love with our long term-partners. But deep down, we are secretly lusting for each other, hoping we might meet again. During the times when we blocked each other, i still do think about him. Mr XYz never found anyone else to cheat on. And I know he wouldnt, as he is quite a popula

Girl is VERY timid around me.

Not sure if this is the right sub to post this or not, but here it goes. I (22M) have a friend (18F) who often acts extremely timid around me. She seems nervous and tripping over her words/can’t get the right words out around 90% of the time when she’s talking to me. When she’s around other guys, she’s perfectly normal. Now, of course at first I thought she liked me, and I started to pursue her, until I heard from a mutual friend that she had no interest. Before I had any interest in her (well over 3 months ago) she was like this, and she’s like this now even though no attraction is there. Honestly I just wanna be normal friends with her rather than always feeling like I’m intimidating. Guess this is more friend advice than dating. I do plan on confronting her about this because I want us to be cool. Thoughts from you guys?

Is it normal to say hi after breaking up?

We went out for over 4 years. She broke up with me about 4 months ago. I've started seeing someone. My new girl's great. One thing that bothers me - in the past, when I've broken up with women, I've touched based with them a few months later, just to see if they're doing ok. My ex has not done this, and after going out for so long, it seems kinda like a decent thing to do. I don't believe I should initiate contact as she broke up with me (it'll look like I'm trying to crawl back to her) but I believe the onus is on her to say hi. Am I being weird? It wasn't a bad break up. I'm just thinking that after you spend that much time with someone, you'd give a shit about them. Submitted May 02, 2019 at 06:01AM We went out for over 4 years.

I (20M) not sure how to handle this scenario with (19F) that reached out to me last week after a year.

So I met this girl on Easter of last year. The is my cousin's cousin. (I'll call my cousins cousin: Amy) (AND NO AMY IS NOT RELATED TO ME IN ANY WAY) I didnt met and greet Amy exactly but my cousin told me that Amy thought I was cute so my cousin gave me Amy's number. I texted Amy the next day, we chatted pretty good for the next few days. I finally asked her if she'd like to hang out some time. She agreed. The hang out was not the best, I think so. At first, while on the way to our destination I struck a nice convo with her. Awkward silences here and there. She had same taste of music as I. After, I take her to the beach at night, peaceful silence out there. Between us, extreme loads of awkward silences. Again, I'm very introverted so its difficult for me to initiate a convo. She did little to most talking. While on the way to take her home, even more silence between us, I play some music from personal playlist and she mentioned that she listens to most of the son

Wanna know if someone likes you? High five them.

Hi! So not exactly the greatest "works-every-time" advice, but hey, Ive seen worse ones get to front page lol. Basically I consider myself quite self aware, I love psychology, I love communication, been going to therapy for almost 10 years, etc. So I'm not an expert but I'm definitely passionate about it. Sometimes, while you're getting to know someone you'll ask yourself if they like you, if they do then how much, or maybe they strongly dislike you but are just being nice. In order to test that I like doing certain things to see how they react. Things like hugging for just a little longer than you are used to (you need to have hugged each other in the past), being nicer, being colder. Something I love to do is to be funny and nice in front of the person you like. Especially if youre a man trying to seduce a girl. Girls tend to be jealous of other girls. Imagine making her best friend laugh and aww because youre funny and sweet. You look 10x more attracti

Girl wants me to text more often, I don't have anything to talk about

So I've been talking to this girl for a little while now and it's been going well, we hang out regularly and are kind of in the preliminary stages of a relationship; we've talked about how we feel and we're just trying to work some things out right now - she's had bad experiences in the past and she's a bit worried about how this could turn out, she's trying to learn more about me and make sure that this is something that I actually want, but my bad texting is not helping her see that. She's repeatedly brought up the fact that I'm bad at texting/replying. At first it was just a friendly dig, but as we've gotten closer, gotten on the same page and started to talk about where we want to take this, she's started to become really irritated about it, as in her eyes, my lack of texting is a sign of low interest. For example, yesterday we talked about our day/had a normal conversation about something random that she had to do at university, and t

Love isnt always easy or fun.

My girl went back to her hometown to deal with some wreckage from her past, and as i am feeling all these unfamiliar feelings, i cant help but remind myself that love hurts and love is hard. Love is letting go when you must. Love is allowing her/him to go through their hard times because it leads to growth. Love is stepping back and listening when she talks. Love doesnt always feel good but if it wasn't for the bad times you wouldn't feel the good times. I have such a deep connection that I can feel when she cries, and I can feel when she's hurting, and tbh the hardest thing I've ever done is step back and let go. I hope this is ok here for all to see if not let me know and i will remove my post. Edit: thanks everyone for the upvotes, and thank you for your kind words of support. Love big and love with your whole heart! Submitted April 30, 2019 at 07:22AM My girl went back to her hometown to deal with some wreckage from her past, and as i am feeling all these un

the world looks different with you in my life

My days are brighter with you in my life. I have another reason to wake up and be thankful to be living at the same time as you. It’s a miracle our paths have crossed. In an infinite universe, we have still found each other. I love you. Submitted April 30, 2019 at 07:25AM My days are brighter with you in my life.

Bitter Sweet

I’ll always look back on loving you. So much of the beauty was in the bad timing. So much in the impossibility. So much in the death of what could have been. It’s sitting next to you. Not being able to touch you. It’s looking at you. The unspoken belonging. It’s knowing you despite your mystery because we’re so alike it’s scary... but so different at times I laugh. You made a cynic fall, I fell hard. I’m not one to stick around but the moment I found you at my side I never left. I need to find a new story for myself, one that doesn’t hurt so much. Thank you for beating me at my own game. Submitted May 01, 2019 at 08:51AM I’ll always look back on loving you. So much of the beauty was in the bad timing. So much in the impossibility.

Asked Her To Prom

My heart was beating faster than it was in Endgame, which I actually saw with her (let's call her Jasmine). I never thought I would've actually gone through with my plan. But I did, and I feel absolutely amazing about it. I printed a picture of a moon that says, "I would travel to the moon and back with you, but I guess prom would be pretty cool too." I added some Moon Pies and Reese's and put them in a CD case to surprise her. I asked her "hey we need to set the mood, can you grab the CD case under your seat?" It was perfect. She's kinda worried about what her parents might think, because they're kind of sensitive as to our friendship as they see me there every single day after school with her. Still, I know that in her heart she would want to go and that's what truly matters to me. I hate how hard it is to hang out with her outside of school, but the hug we shared felt like heaven. And after she got picked up, I walked towards my truck t

very lucky

i’ve been suffering from ptsd for over a year due to a really bad car accident that i was in. the guy i was dating at the time (now my ex) was supportive for the first 3 months, but then he started treating me like shit because he “couldn’t handle it” anymore which boggled me, because i was the one having flashbacks, constantly disassociating from reality, waking up from horrific nightmares and being too afraid to fall back asleep, panic/anxiety attacks, severe depression. few nights ago i crashed and my boyfriend went to take a shower. i had a really bad nightmare, one of the worst i’ve had in a while. i woke up freaking the fuck out. he came in a few minutes later, and as soon as he saw me crying his whole demeanour changed, he dropped everything he was doing and ran straight to me and grabbed me. he laid back on the bed and held onto me so tight. i felt so fucking safe in his arms, i kept crying more and more but his voice started to soothe me. i was calming down, i felt so loved.

Participate in an Academic Survey on Sexuality and Relationships

Hello! I'm a Master's student at Queen's University (Ontario, Canada). I'm doing my Master's research on a distressing and poorly understood condition called 'persistent genital arousal disorder' (or PGAD for short), and I'm seeking to better understand how this disorder affects relationship dynamic when one member is affected. As a part of my study, I am also looking to recruit a group of healthy individuals who are involved in a romantic relationship to complete a quick survey on sexual, relationship, and overall well-being. The survey itself is very quick, and will only take approximately 15 minutes to complete. The survey is open to all individuals who are 18 years of age or older, and currently in a romantic relationship for a minimum of three months. ​ To participate, click on this link: https://queensu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0c8DJRllbfFLeRL ​ This study is being conducted through the Sexual Health Research Lab ( www.sexlab.ca ), and has b

To my love

I miss you so much and I regret everything. I know I’ll never have you back in my life and that breaks my heart everyday. Submitted May 01, 2019 at 06:04PM I miss you so much and I regret everything. I know I’ll never have you back in my life and that breaks my heart everyday.

What's going on?

Okay, so here it is. I have known a guy for 3 months, and he is sweet, charming and very kind. But apparently he deals with depression, therefore whatever promise he makes, he breaks them all. He leaves me on read some of the time, I would see him being online yet he ignores me, and he avoids questions. He betrays my trust by standing me up on dates but I just never have the heart to break things off with him. He also disappears for days, and yet he is online through that time but he either ignores my messages or leave me on read. He would apologise afterwards, make phonecalls, tells me all the sweet talk. But what he says is so not in sync with his actions. I don't know if he means it when he says he loves me or he wants me to take the hints and I should leave him?

So in love

I just wanna gush over my man without annoying my friends by being cringy. We're not together for long but he's the best thing that's ever happened to me. We have met twice before we actually properly met and hit it off which I believe is just fate deciding the first two times weren't right for us and I genuinely don't know what I'd do without him. I never have to question how he feels or his motives because i know he loves me as much as I love him which is rare because i literally cry to him sometimes out of overwhelming love. Hope everyone on this subreddit finds the same kinda love that I have ❤ Submitted May 01, 2019 at 10:53PM I just wanna gush over my man without annoying my friends by being cringy.

Im a junior in highschool and i am in love

Every time she walks past i take a sharp breath. If im in a conversation and i catch a glimpse of her i totally lose my train of thought. If i bump into her i just start talking and before i know it ive said something stupid. it is almost sickening, the feeling i get when im near her. She has such a cute smile and whenever she flips her hair i feel a sharp pang in my chest. ​ I will start of by saying this; this girl is absolutely perfect and she doesn't know it. She is soooo smart (top of her class) and quite shy. She is also drop dead gorges. She likes to read and only hangs out with her small friend group of about 3. She barely knows me and whenever i try to talk to her she is so uninterested and just shrugs me off. It is so disheartening and i'm slowly coming to grips with the fact that she may never feel the same about me as i do for her. She is a grade younger than me and an introvert and it is extremely difficult to talk to her despite being an outgoing person myself.

Momma, I'm struck

Friends since grade school. She was always there, guiding me through my problems, most of them relationships. How did i not know I was in love with HER the whole time? Same thing for middle and eventually high school. One night it all comes to fruition and we hold each other. Next week I start a 4 year relationship that would ruin me. How did i not know? I think about HER frequently. Only person to understand me , yet know I am better. To love me for who I am but push me to be more. To be omnipotence and still my playdoh. Why wouldnt I acknowledge my love? Relationshit (No typo) done. Recovery period. Who comes into my life but HER. Love. Love. Love. We held each other for what felt like simultaneously seconds and months. Looking back I dont know if there was anything in my head but H.E.R. I'm in love. At this point im beyond a legal adult, and I feel the nostalgic angel dust of love like I'm a kid again. Struck. Reeling. And then i fuck it up. Because love is blind.
