  1. Physical & Mental Health Issues
    Hello everyone! This is going to be a long rant but I need to get this out before I lose my mind! I'm here because I needed an outlet because I'm just too embarrassed to reach out to friends and family to let out my frustration. I married an immigrant man despite my family's constant warnings...
  2. General Relationship Discussions
    I have been experiencing emotional neglect since October 2021. It got worse. We stopped being physically intimate, stopped communicating because he was so addicted to YouTube and bonding with his friends from work. His friends and family noticed his lack of emotional availability and no one...
  3. Financial Problems in Marriage
    So we have been married 9 years and we work together or we are supposed to. But everytime I voice an opinion on a matter or on a decision his making, he gets defensive and yells and screams as if I am talking down on him and refusing to go along with what he wants to do. So much so, that he...
  4. Considering Divorce or Separation
    We’ve been married for 6 months and I recently started therapy where I learn to cope with past childhood and relationship trauma and how to love myself. Ever since I’m in this process I resent my husbands words and actions towards me because they go against my self-respect. These are examples...
  5. Considering Divorce or Separation
    Hello everyone, I am new to this message board, and I’m reaching out for some advice. I have been married for 12 years and have two girls (9 and 7). My husband and I have had trouble throughout our marriage including: financial trouble (in which I was blamed for spending too much money), not...
  6. Coping with Infidelity
    I am Totallysad, and I first wrote a post here in 2015 sharing my experiences after a 16 year marriage with my husband in which I went through numerous instances of finding him cheating on me, physical abuse and emotional trauma. Every single response to my post asked me to seek counselling for...

    Hello everyone, Just registered. I have been away from my wife for just over three months now. We have a child together (20 mo old). She has been keeping him from me, having only let me see him twice now for a total of about 2 hours in the last 3 months. I have filed for divorce since I was...
  8. Considering Divorce or Separation
    I've been married for 15 years, kids the whole bang shoot, but I have a problem...or at least I think I do. I'm too scared to voice my opinion, or ask to do something trivial like "Can I go fetch our son and take him to his GF" or, "The boys wanted to invite friends over for a sleep-over" or...

  10. The Ladies' Lounge
    I've been starved for an emotional connection with my husband for almost our entire marriage, but I just realized what "my problem" is almost 3 years ago. Since then, I've read every book, talked to every friend, been to 3 marriage counselors, a priest and a marriage encounter, and I feel like...
  11. New Member Introductions
    About six weeks ago I had to get an 18 month restraining order against my husband, who pulled my down to the ground in what was the final straw of living with his violent rages issues (that was the first time he actually hit me, but he often threatened to, and came close to it many times in the...
  12. General Relationship Discussions
    this is my first time posting...anywhere. I hope you all will be patient with me as I do not know the etiquette or what to expect.

  13. Considering Divorce or Separation
    I've been married for 16+ years, most of those years happy with a loving man that was a bit emotionally unavailable. I spend a lot of time nurturing his needs & reassuring him of my love which I thought was being attentive. About 4 years ago he went through this really deep dark depression &...
  14. General Relationship Discussions
    I've been married for 22 years. I never worked for the first 18 years and he didn't let me spend any money. What took place was if I bought something for myself, he would always get angry and say, "what did you buy that for? You didn't need that, did you? You're gonna pay me back for that...
  15. Considering Divorce or Separation
    I've been married to a very kind person for almost 7 years. He's a great person, very generous, and has a huge heart. But when we're at home (away from everyone), he turns into a person that I did not really know before we got married. See, he has anger issues and he gets frustrated often. So...

However, my ex has chosen to start a relationship with a much younger woman whom has two children from two different...
  17. The Family & Parenting Forums
    When I was about 14 or 15 my father, a board certified psychiatrist/neurologist, said that I suffered an Oedipal complex. I knew what an Oedipal complex was because Freudian psychology was in the media in the early 70s. But he had to spell it out. "It means you want to murder your father so...
