  1. I would give your hubs some time to come around. It's not an issue of what you might do. It's an issue of why didn't you tell him right away. You bottled it up with your one your boyfriend, and you are doing it again with your husband. Figure out why you do this. Could be from a parent that always made you feel shameful for expressing yourself...or a dynamic where you had to be the golden child, so your folks wouldn't fight. Either way, reassure your husband, no more secrets. And give him a moment to decompress.
  2. I disagree here. You should always be honest with your needs, and tell your partner what you need. It's up to them to make the effort, and up to the requester to understand where they are coming from. Compromise and communication counts. It takes time and experience to adult, which includes growing into being in a healthy, long lasting relationship. Expecting someone to just know what to do all the time sets everyone up for failure.
  3. It take a few years to really get to know someone. To see what they are like on their best days, worst days, how they treat others, their friends, their family. Losing or gaining a job, losing a loved one. How they are on vacations, travels, etc. You are in your 30's and should know if they are right for you. So if you don't feel they are a right fit, they aren't. I don't think you are confusing that anxious, butterfly feelings with love and connection. I think this is more of a matter that maybe she doesn't always get you, or you can't always be yourself around her, or maybe her sense of humor is odd. Or you don't like the way she handles money, etc. I would think more about it, or time to call it quits. It's not about the girl you dated in your early 20's. It just you recognizing she may not be the one for you. But if she makes you feel like home, then it could just be you self-sabotaging a good thing. I would take a week apart, and see how you feel. Like a trip somewhere with just family; nothing debaucherous; that helps no one in this case.
  4. They don't work with any single straight men as well? No associations, member groups, volunteer groups with men in them? Sounds like you've never asked them.
  5. Looks do not matter. It's opportunity and a numbers game. Have all your friends set you up with people. My buddy did all the apps! All the apps. But found a great man through Facebook dating. He's great. Just met him. They've been going steady for months now. Before they met, he was ready to give up on dating.
  6. I sometimes can't recall what day of the week it is, or at the drop of the hate, how many years I've been married. I would just ask him directly, instead of doing all the assumptions he is trying to one up you, or pull a fast one. He may have just given you the date they file for divorce. In many states in the US, you need to be separated for a few year. Or he blurted out the wrong year by mistake, because he was thinking when he first found out she cheated on him. Not everyone is crystal clear on traumatic events, so I would 100% let it go, and instead focus on why after these years, and a baby, the one year difference matters, and why you couldn't just ask him about it.
  7. I think everything untrue. There are plenty of conventional not good looking people who have zero emotional intelligence, and many conventional good looking people in happy relationships with children. And there are plenty of "good looking" people who never figure it out. How you were raised and or shown how to handle conflict, compromise, and how you view of yourself is what makes a difference. At my age though, I find most people beautiful; you just gotta really look.
  8. Not really. Far too many put someone on a pedestal. He's already told you he doesn't want to marry you, and he's okay for you to turn your life upside down in case he may change his mind. That's not how relationships with a strong foundation work.
  9. Grown-arse men learn to not be obvious at all...you won't even notice. Been married for 13+ years now...I have never once seen my hubs check out another woman, once, and I know he's not blind.
  10. He's put you in an impossible situation on purpose. And this is a major disagreement. Don't move. He does not prioritize you at all. He does not prioritize your needs, your comfort, or you at all. In 5 years, he'll come up with another excuse.
  11. Be the positive change. People leave a job for many reasons. And the CEO grilling you, it's to see how you do under pressure. If you want to be in the big leagues, you need to learn how to rise above with less than pleasant people. I mean, if you want happy and easy, then take on a less of a challenge. My hubs has worked for million to a few multibillion companies - there's also a dysfunction the higher up you go, and always an opportunity to make it better.
  12. 1st, thank you for saving lives!! 2nd, you were exhausted and hungry, and someone sent you money in honor of Nurse's Week, which should be celebrating. This guy didn't come down to the hospital with food and flowers, he lazily sent you $15. 3rd, instead of saying oh, that's weird and inappropriate, your boyfriend accuses you of cheating, which is manipulation and teaching you to accept abusive behavior 101, where now you will worry how to win his approval again, so then he can hold it over your head for the next 20 years till the day he thinks you deserve a slap to the face. 4th, girl, I know you think you are not susceptible to being with an abusive person, but they do it little by little till you can't even recognize yourself. They are pros at this. It is a blessing in disguise he is blocking you. He will come back, but please do not let him back in. He's a badddd, bad person.
  13. You appreciate it! That's what you do. Appreciate that maybe your girlfriend can avoid getting assaulted, along with her friend(s) she may be with. Watch Fear the Night! My buddy is a doctor who only works here and there to maintain her license because she has 5 boys, two of whom have special needs, and the hubs can support them easily, she has a black belt, and takes two of her boys to classes. I think you should consider big picture; do you need someone you don't love, but can't fend for herself? I think you should ignore your jealous friends when they give you grief about it. My best advice would be to grow up, and value the total package. Don't listen to your dummy friends picking on you.
  14. I used to be able to watch all the scary and horror movies. But after having them, if there is any possible harm to a child in a movie, which I know is a movie, I cannot keep watching, and am sick to my stomach. I couldn't even make it past through one of my fav directors, The House That Jack Built when the scene with the kid and mom happened. But do the washing machine method. If you see something that upsets you, put on happy stuff right after.
  15. You have done nothing wrong! It just looks he's no longer into you. It's not working out. Nothing to be embarrassed by; happens to the best people. https://www.psychmechanics.com/body-language-truth-of-pointing-foot/ Sometimes people choose the be super boring route to have you break up with them, so they can avoid conflict.
