Speaking of low self esteem, don't you have your own money? Why do you want his? |
|
I EARNED that money kneeling at the alter of his penis for years.
It's my social security. |
I'm assuming by "leaving" you meant you divorced and now you got something meaningful. No shame in that. But in a good marriage, sometimes you do things because it makes your partner happy. It's no all about you in marriage. In fact, it rarely ever is. |
Paid, legal prostitute, with a pension plan. Got it. |
Excellent point. So what is my partner doing in this equation to make me happy? |
|
Exactly - do things that you don't want to do - go to couples counseling, say sorry, stop belittling me - little things to keep a marriage going. Messed up.
I often wish I moved on much earlier except for our daughter. Too bad he won't learn anything from it and will continue the cycle. Funny when I met him he was young but an engagement fell apart because the fiance met someone else. I often wondered if he pulled the same bullshit he did with me. Not my problem anymore. YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hell yeah I moved out cuz that bastard refused. |
If we are still talking about your previous marriage that ended in the divorce, I think the answer is obvious. I was talking about a good marriage. |
| It is shame that so many women have such a negative view of their DHs and being intimate with them. Every marriage hits a rough patch but geez, I question why some of you are even still married. |
So am I. I am not the PP you quoted, my partner is not emotionally abusive and I am not divorced. If I give in to sex whenever my husband wants, what is he sacrificing to make me happy? Or is my happiness not important as well? |
| Call me a prostitute all you want but I have my name on everything we own. I'm getting mine. WITHOUT sucking dick. |
It's not about viewing sex negatively, it's about being tired sometimes and not always being in the mood. |
So you knelt at the alter of his penis, but didn't suck. Got it. |
I am sure that your DH thinks the world of you too. You sound like a delightful person. |
Feeling like sex with your husband is a sacrifice, a chore, a duty, a giving in to selfish wants, is about viewing sex negatively and is completely different than occasionally being tired or not in the mood in an otherwise happy, healthy sex life. |
Sex for money? Gross. |
