Welcome to the board! There are a ton of resources to be had here and to take your time mulling over things to see where you are with it all. It will take some time, but it will be totally worth it. :)

Bingo. I am also in peri right now and it wrecks havoc sometimes with what I want to do and the things that need taken care of, such as house chores. Exercise and diet have helped tremendously, however, some days, not even that is enough.

This, I think is the crux of the matter. This dude is sounding like bad news and I personally do not think any good is going to come of this. I understand being wildly attracted to someone with endless charisma and who could sell manure to a stable. I get it, I've been there. But I also have the...

As someone who turned 51 earlier this year, it damn well better not be! 😂

Hi, there! Welcome to the board! The best advice I can give you is to read, read, read and discuss, discuss, discuss. And take this slowly. There is zero reason why you should rush headlong into something without contemplating all of the ramifications of that decision. This is journey after...

They are not the only ones :)

I'm not sure if this will make you feel any better, but I am not going to lie, I actually had the same response that you did just reading this. I have this quirk (habit? thing? 🤷‍♀️) of my anxiety going through the roof whenever someone I care about does something "out of the norm". And tbh, I...

I don't think so at all. IMO, it is really the little things that matter and after a year (give or take) of cold delivery, there is much pleasure to be had in having a hot meal plunked right down in front of one. :)

Bingo!

Go with your gut.

That was my thought as well. This smacks of being terribly one sided. The wife must do her own internal work just as her husband has done.

Hi, Lexi! Welcome to the forum! :)

Welcome to the board! :) Please be on the lookout for @kdt26417's Welcome post. It's fantastic and a veritable goldmine of info.

OOOOO...thank you for this! More reading and discussing. Yay!!!

Mine is from a particular favorite song, from a particular favorite band.

This is exactly my whole "thing", if you will. I do not want to put either my husband, any potential partners for either of us, or even myself into an untenable situation. After all, if I love these people like I say that I do, I would not do that. It's not coming from a place of authentic...

This was a bad choice of words in this instance. What I meant to say is that, my husband would have his partners and I would have mine. More N or W than triad. (This is also presuming I am using the correct vernacular. If I am not, please correct me :P). And what I mean by into our...

Honestly, I would love to print this out and stick it on the wall somewhere. The fridge would be the best place since it is used more frequently. :P Thank you, so so much for this!

This is true and it is quite telling that neither of them have stated otherwise. And I may be the only one in the room with this thought/opinion, however, I also find it extraordinarily telling that he hasn't been very quick to state what Amy herself has brought to the table since she's been...

My husband and think the more discussion the better. My husband has always enjoyed debates and exploring new ideas. Honestly, if I had the money and the connections, I would love to bring back the idea of salons that used to be very popular among the rich and shameless. We have had quite a few...
