More because I know the approximate size a guy needs to be for comfortable sex. I definitely don't like my cervix being bashed 😅 I've had no issues with menstrual cups or toys, though.

Nope! And have no desire. But I'd imagine our equivalent is breast size anyway.

What is your support/childcare system like if you opt to continue working? I have a 5 yr old now that was born in the midst of covid. We were already WFH because of that, and at the time lived with my inlaws. I was so bored I chose to go back to work 3 weeks early, mainly because I could just work from my desk upstairs. If I'd had to commute the 35 min each way and be there at 8am that might have been different. My job also allowed babies to come to work until mobile or 1 yr (whichever came 1st)…

This is what the vetting process is for... Cooking can primarily be "the woman's domain" (i guess we can discount all male chefs out there...), but as you said, he should know basics to survive. I'd have ick and need to move on.

I'm the opposite. I realized at 25 that I didn't want kids and was fully in support of that lifestyle. I married someone with an 8 yr old at the time which was a great balance for me. Ended up pregnant at 36 with a total surprise. She's now 5 and big sis is nearly 17. She lights up my world. I chose to keep her, so I choose to show up in whatever my best version is each day. I don't have any regrets... but I would have also been totally fine remaining just a stepmom and enjoying life in a differ…

Yeah that's part of her issues she's got to deal with to break out of the addictive cycle. She's obsessed with him and forgetting about herself.

It's not with a porn addict. I don't think ever, but definitely if said addict is not even in recovery. The truth of the matter is that his brain needs constant new stimuli to become aroused. We are known... and even if you put on some cute outfit, try some new position, etc... it'll be short lived. My ex couldn't combine sex and love either, and sex was always on his terms, never about my pleasure, and very infrequent. It ate at my soul. Even after we both went to recovery, it was never like wh…

He may be feeling a little anxious himself because he participated in you ignoring previously stated boundaries... Either way, I think it's a good sign that he is setting up more dates and obviously enjoys your company. My experience has been that the men I've been in relationships that had sex relatively early on stick around because they liked/loved me... and also liked having sex. If you enjoyed it, express it. If you like spending time with him then tell him... it's the negative thoughts tha…

It's hard to say without knowing your ages, If you have religious or cultural stigmas, etc. Ultimately it's not a terrible thing to satisfy your partner if it's an act YOU feel comfortable with. He should also be reciprocating in some form and wanting to please you as well imo. Some men just take, and the women don't really know much different. Does your bf make judgmental comments like slut shaming about other women who may partake in intimacies outside of marriage?

I've watched all the series and am halfway through the book series. I think there are definitely some "wow, that was really stupid, Claire" moments, but I also think that's fairly realistic. She does tend to defer to him frequently, but he also loves and respects that she's not a doormat and defers to her knowledge and experience at times. I think they make a nice team overall. In the beginning she is still learning to trust him and is very out of her element too.

Haha, well I'm sure it helps that my love languages for friends are time and service. But thank you- I try. It's also nice that while some of my friends have kids - some around my kid's age and others grown - we talk about other things as well. Our dreams, our partners, jobs, upcoming trips, etc. Having been a formally Child Free woman, I'm also not put off by having CF friends or excluding them. I'm all about adult time. But yes... intentions matter. As does I think communicating them. There ar…

It's definitely harder once you leave school, but I've found some of my closest friends in my 30s and now early 40s. I've also noticed that the majority, if not all, of my friends are extremely introverted. I fall about 50/50 for introversion and extroversion. I've also reconnected with friends I went to school with after a gap of several years of not speaking. That has been wonderful.

Yes, because otherwise you fall into the cycle of being addicted to the addict and their behaviors. I scheduled times out with friends and did MMA (my ex husband also did MMA, but he was years more advanced so we weren't in the same classes). I also took 12 steps as the partner, participated in self improvement classes, and even attended a weekly Boundaries in Marriage class. I'd previously believed I had good boundaries, but it made me aware of how I was mistaken. You don't want to do so much t…

It's sometimes hard to say... my 1st husband was attractive, but he was not my first love (who admittedly I was hung up on at the time still). But we dated for 2 years and were married for 10 years. He grew on me. My boyfriend in between husbands was NOT my normal type. Like... we'd been friends and martial arts partners and were essentially "bros" for 2 years before I was divorced and then I asked him initially about being a FWB because I trusted him and needed to feel that connection again. He…

So essentially he wants you to be someone NOT saddled with kids without a break, home responsibilities, and the heartbreak and soul death of watching your partner continually choose someone else over you.... That is his rationalization to keep doing what he's doing knowing full well that you'll never be able to ever be "happy and flirty." If you insist on staying for the kids, then I'd suggest getting into therapy to start coping with your situation and emotionally detaching from his toxic behav…

Hi! Just wanted to let you know that you are not alone... I got divorced at 32 after 10 yrs of marriage and 12 yrs together (he was unfaithful multiple times and also had a porn/sex addiction). I felt shame that I was a divorce statistic mostly... didn't plan on having kids and hadn't discovered RPW yet. Despite the amicable divorce, it was CRUSHING. I jumped into a relationship with a guy I'd been friends with who introduced me to RPW, but ultimately we weren't compatible (he wanted kids and wa…

I know - I apologize - I didn't intend to come across as snarky. For years I assumed similarly, and I reside in the area it occurs. And while you absolutely can have a drug-induced sexcapade in the desert, there is absolutely so much more to the event and experience. Essentially anything you could ever imagine can be found out there (Including AA, religious services, and some of the most amazing art you'll ever get to see and interact with).

That is your prerogative. What you seek there you will find - but ignorance I suppose will quell the crowds there for the rest of us :) It's definitely not for everyone. My husband wanted to make sure his partner could handle it as we have an intention to go every year and are actively involved in the community.

I'm 5'8". My husband (2nd marriage) is about 2 inches taller than me and that's not an issue. My first husband was the same height, and it weirded me out initially. Admittedly, he was a rebound after the breakup with my first love,so it was hard not to focus on or compare to the first love. But ultimately it didn't bother me. My boyfriend between husband's, though... was initially a friend who I'd never been attracted to previously, but fell in love with over time and getting to know him. Beside…

I started dating my husband when I was 33 and my stepdaughter was nearly 9 at the time. My intention was to not have biological children, but the universe had other plans down the road, so I'm now stepmom and biomom. In any case... it was a wonderful experience for me. I think it will largely depend on what a custody arrangement looks like for your partner along with kids' ages, as that will impact your ability to live the way you want. For example... if it's week on/week off, then you're more a…

I'm 7.5 years divorced from a porn/sex addict and have since remarried a man who used to dabble in porn while single, but chose to delete his stash when we got together 6.5 years ago of his own accord. My ex and I got married at age 22 and were married for 10 years. My ex literally could not connect emotionally during sex. It was all mostly F'ing, and always when HE was interested. I NEVER had an orgasm with him and was always left to take care of my own needs afterward. I was rejected SO many t…

If he's hooked on porn there's nothing you can do to change him or his attractive level. By all means, lose weight if you feel it's necessary for you, but my point is that he's got an unrealistic idea of what women's bodies should look like. And quite honestly, even if you became the "ideal" he would likely still become bored eventually and seek new stimuli through porn. That happened to me with my ex-husband. It sounds like you're already altering your life choices to try and control his behavi…

You literally can't fix him, and you're spiraling into the co-addict role of the addiction cycle trying to please him. This is coming from an ex-wife (10 yr marriage) of a porn/affair addict who has since remarried to a wonderful man who actually takes my needs and desires into consideration.

My husband, stepdaughter and I have played a lot of Over cooked together and Towerfall, though on the computer. I really enjoyed a lot of the Lego games years ago, especially those like Indiana Jones, Star Wars, LOTR, etc. Wasn't as much of a fan with the Marvel and DC comic ones. As a solo game, I just finished playing the Hogwarts Legacy game - first game I've really played in over a decade - and I LOVE it! Beautifully done. I also love Kingdom Hearts.

Right?! I was completely clueless because he also graduated top of his class, worked FT (3am - 11am) as a dept manager in a grocery store, and did martial arts... plus spent time with me every day. Apparently he'd browse while writing papers etc. Or when school was on break and he was bored.

My ex husband was a porn addict. They just tend to get "lower libido" with partners eventually because we are known and "boring." It can also stir the shame being unable to perform properly... We'd have sex maybe 4x per month despite my very high libido and attempts to be intimate. I later found out he was looking at 4-7 hrs of porn per day while obtaining his degree. He watched out of stress and boredom. If your boyfriend's ex put a porn blocker on then he's definitely lying. Pay attention to t…

I would just tell him, but I would also expect him to share. My husband and I were open about our previous experiences (and we were both previously married) and ended up having the same number. To me it was more important how we valued intimacy... it would have been a turn off to discover he just slept around casually.

Probably a little of both... I personally couldn't deal with that... I KNOW my husband is intelligent, hardworking, and handsome, but if he tried to convey pride in his ability to "get women" I'd be so turned off. And that's not even with the commitment issues. Find someone who wants to be with you and shows it. Comparing you and criticizing you as a facade for his indecisiveness and inability to lovingly handle situations is not appropriate.

MMA gyms are common around where I live, in addition to numerous jiu jitsu gyms and gyms for other types of martial arts. The same could be for wherever OP Is located. Either way, she's indicating he's got the dedication and commitment to attain a black belt, just as he did for a PhD.

Good on you! I hope you're able to do it. Be gentle with yourself if you slip up, but utilize all the resources and tools out there to be as successful as possible. It's not realistic to avoid people you find beautiful in public or online, but it is a choice how you handle it and whether you divert your sexual or even emotional energy on someone else and continue to feed it.

I was 32 when I divorced from my own chronically unfaithful ex husband, and then started dating my current husband at age 34. We got married 2.5 yrs later and I even had an unexpected baby Sept 2020 at nearly 37 yrs of age. Don't settle for the crap you're experiencing just to become a mother. It'll be exponentially more difficult and frustrating as soon as you add a baby to the mix. Learn to love yourself and your worth and find a better partner.

I just quit my state job last month because trying to WFH with a then 15.5 month old was crazy...even with help from my inlaws throughout the day typically. It was extremely stressful, and all my "breaks" were baby related tasks like putting her down or trying to feed her lunch.

My husband loves to dry my hair for me, brings me flowers and ice cream sundaes from Costco, brings me coffee most mornings, and is just very overall thoughtful and considerate with all things related to me.

How old is he? Ironically sex addiction can result in LACK of sexual intimacy in a relationship because the person needs new stimuli to maintain an erection, etc. You wanting sexual intimacy doesn't make you an addict. My 10-yr marriage fell apart because of sex/porn addiction. We had sex maybe 3-4x per month starting immediately after marriage when we were 22!

Ex wife of a former Marine and sex/porn addict who at least OWNED his behaviors... Your husband is trying to make you the bad guy when you aren't. He is deflecting and not coming close to being a Captain in your marriage. I highly recommend looking into support and resources through COSA, and if you're curious about the addictive cycle of sex/porn addicts and how you play a role as well, read "Out of the Shadows" by Patrick Carnes. I thought the whole premise was a joke until I started reading m…

I started doing hard gels about 8 yrs ago and get them filled every 3 weeks. It prevents me from biting or picking at them, plus I love all the fun glittery colors I can have depending on my particular mood. I change the colors up every 6 weeks. I started doing my toes the same way once I was doing MMA because my feet were much more exposed and I hate flakey nail polishes.

Trust me, it's not. Sounds like you might benefit from looking into some coaddiction resources and support. You definitely sound codependent. Were you able to address those aspects in therapy? Sometimes you have to find the right mode for therapy too for it to be effective. I found a huge benefit from COSA which is for partners of sex addicts. There are great books and groups that you can be connected with so you know you're not alone and can find your inner power again. Hugs!

If you feel it’s a hindrance to your life you can look up SSA for literature and resources on how to address it. Using masturbation for the reasons you listed aren’t bad in and of themselves, but if it’s affecting your life then you might benefit from this and therapy. Just “quitting” doesn’t address the underlying reason(s) you’re trying to cope from/avoid.

For me it’s depended on my partner and ensuring he would make a good partner and father rather than dropping everything on me. I also enjoy my freedoms and don’t want having a child to alter our current lifestyle. Having a kid is also generic Russian Roulette. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with not being sure or just not wanting to have children. I’ve never had a biological urge to reproduce anyway, much to my mother’s dismay, and I’ve gotten tired of hearing about how selfish I am over t…

My fiancé gets up with me every morning and starts my car and packs my lunch while I throw on my clothes etc. He’s never done that for anyone else before, but the simple gesture saves me from being late and allows for a few extra minutes of morning cuddles. He’s done a ton of other things too and is extremely generous and thoughtful.

Wow, I’m sorry you had to go through that... I can’t even image the levels of anguish it would cause. I’m glad he’s getting help!

We reconnected in 2016... I was also recovering from divorcing a cheating ex followed by a heartbreak after subsequently dating one of my best friends and realizing we weren’t compatible. I actually met my fiancé in late 2011 after reconciling with my ex husband, and he was dating my former SIL. They split in early 2014 and we didn’t speak or see each other until late 2016. However, shortly after my last break up in April 2016, I remember going out with family and friends for a birthday party at…

I’ve been blessed the last 4 years to work with a small unit comprised of 7 women (now it’s 6 women and 1 married man and his newborn half the time) within our agency. Some of the primary reasons I haven’t opted to look elsewhere is because I love the dynamic and having my own office ... and being treated like an adult. We get along well and respect one another. We don’t typically hang out at lunch or after work, but the environment is pleasant and supportive. We specifically look for personalit…

They can, but then you’re in the wrong sub and bitching to the wrong people. You just don’t like the answers you’re getting and are lashing out.

From one of your previous comments, it sounds like the play wrestling and handsy behavior when you wanted to kiss him was occurring at the gym. Is that the case or were you elsewhere? If it WAS at the gym, I can totally understand why he’d pull away since he is their employee and generally there are clauses about not getting involved with patrons. It’s not professional to be behaving in that manner at any place of employment. Some gyms encourage a bit of flirting to entice patrons to sign up for…

Against what rules, exactly?

Yes and no - most probably are, but I’ve met a few guys out there just wanting to bang whatever completely sober, too!

I’m huge into personal hygiene and my FH is floored by how clean and fresh smelling I am. I’m definitely not OCD about it, but bathing daily and washing intimate areas after sex are a must. I even have two bidets in my house because I don’t think TP takes care of that job alone. He told me he once knew an adult woman he’d dated for a time who believed just having water run over her meant that it was washed, and he had to teach her that soaping and scrubbing was needed. Somehow he managed to stic…

Omg that is amazing! Congrats to you, too! He proposed to me out there too (my 2nd year and his 10th) and had arranged for an engagement photo shoot about 6 months in advance! He begrudgingly told me a couple days in advance which ruined the surprise that he wanted, but he figured (rightly) that I would want to be freshened up and prepared for a photography shoot. He’s pretty involved in the BM/art community so he’d love to take out an old heart project he has stored away. Our city has lots of B…

Thank you - we were researching some options last night and will discuss what they might like to incorporate. They’re not too traditional and we want to incorporate some Burning Man aspects into the event, so it’ll be a fun fusion!

Yes, that would be ideal. I’ve already gotten involved in their family business (real estate) and once we’re married I can stop working my main job and have more free time to do that and travel with them.

My last boyfriend was 5 inches shorter than me and it was never an issue. He’s actually the one who introduced me to TRP/RPW!

I’d recommend therapy and maybe SAA since you felt unable to stop the behavior. I’m sorry you had to endure all of your experiences. :(

We reconnected through online dating after a 3.5 year gap of not running into each other. He used to date a former family member of mine for a couple of years and I found him the same night I signed up, he friended me on Facebook the next day, that evening we met for dinner to catch up, and nearly two years later we’ve just gotten engaged!

My fiancé (we got engaged last week!!) deleted his collection of years and years of porn when we got together of his own accord when we got together because he no longer wanted to have a “back door.” He is hyper vigilant to avoid any interaction or situation that might take his energy away from me/our relationship. He still is a little bewildered by taking that action because he had it through college, multiple LTRs, and a marriage, but his attitude had changed. Obviously he’s not blind to attra…

I met my ex husband on a defunct dating site back in 2004. I reconnected with my SO newly two years ago on this mindfulness dating website that caught my eye through Facebook. There are plenty of options out there besides tinder and Craigslist which I wouldn’t recommend to anyone looking for a serious relationship. Check out the profiles, talk to them for a while to see if they’re worth your time, and then try meeting in public.

Why does he need to pay for your nails? That attitude would put me off because it comes across as entitled.

No regrets- my then bf and I (18 and 20 respectively) had waited 2.5 years and it was a beautiful moment. Unfortunately he began to experience regret the morning after and was shame-filled questioning what others might think about him (he wasn’t religious). That ruined the experience for me and ultimately led to our breakup because I couldn’t bear feeling like I was something dirty or someone he’d just picked up on the street rather than the person he intended to marry etc. Spoiler alert - he so…
