  1. Considering Divorce or Separation
    I'm seeking advice on how to gracefully ask for a divorce. This is also a vent since I have no one to talk to. This is going to be long & all over the place since I'm writing this in kind of an emotional state. A quick summary/background: I'm an ex-military guy that met my wife while I was...
  2. General Relationship Discussions
    I have a very long history of depression, anxiety, and low libido and my wife has always known that. Around 6 months ago my depression got much worse, possibly from catching covid. My wife has always had a pronounced chin but when my depression worsened, I developed a form of body dysmorphia...

  4. Sex in Marriage
    My husband and i have never tried bdsm or anything but we've had some really rough sex. The sort of "pounding in every orifice, mimicking porn" kind of sex. It was for him, i never cum, I'm made very uncomfortable and sometimes physically distressed, and i always said that i needed something...
  5. Physical & Mental Health Issues
    My wife is an amazing, talented, beautiful woman. Early on in our marriage I was fairly convinced she was bipolar. Over the years that has settled into a constant unhealthy level of anxiety, stress, depression, and anger. I cannot get her to even schedule a thirty minute online therapy visit. I...

    I met my husband at 17 and we have been together for 20 years. Throughout the years I’ve experienced some physical abuse, mental abuse, he’s also cheated several times, gave me a std.

  11. Physical & Mental Health Issues
    My life has thrown me against the wall more than once. I want to heal but I find it so hard. After my marriage I am unable to move forward, unable to love someone who is available and when they get attached I find any and all reasons to leave. To make matter worse I was taken advantage of about...
  12. Going Through Divorce or Separation
    My husband of 6 years decided he was no longer happy with me and wants a divorce. We have a 2 year old and 4 year old girls together. I begged him to reconsider and try counseling but he said so cold heartedly he doesn't want the marriage any more. No infidelity on either part that I know of...

So I was dating someone before my now-husband who my parents did not approve of. Let me tell you I...
  14. Sex in Marriage
    Hi folks, it's been a long time since I've posted. My full story is very long (you can probably see my old posts under my profile if you'd really like to) so I will try my best to keep this short. Essentially, for the entirety of my wife and I's married lives, we've lived in a mostly sexless...

    Hi To Everyone who doesn't want to be here, I was a member many years ago and now have come back again. My husband had an affair during our 25 years of marriage, right before our 25th.

    ...been married for 17+ years. Knew my wife for 18+ years. She has been depressed for 15+ years. I initially wrote a long post about it, but I can't seem to post anywhere else on the site. I also tried to post an introduction before, but I didn't see it pop up so hopefully this is not a...
  18. General Relationship Discussions
    First of all, this is coming from a place of hurt. My hurt, and I'm still trying to process it and my thoughts and feelings. I've been with my spouse for over 20 years. We've had our good times and bad, but through it all, we had each other. We were best friends and in sync with each other and...
