this part is juciy af. Can you woke people please tell me if I should be triggered by this?

I met my wife on an internet forum, not unlike this one, twelve years ago

https://www.resetera.com/threads/dealing-with-the-realization-that-my-wife-of-ten-years-was-never-in-love-with-me.128408/

[nudemacusers]

Somewhere in here we had a conversation about monogamy, and I expressed that I hadn't really believed in it for a long time but was sticking with it because that was what we agreed to. But she seemed slightly open to polyamory now, which surprised me. Not long after, her romantic interest from the forum site sent her a friend request from her new account on Facebook. After talking a bit they found they still had feelings for each other, so I was just like "yeah go for it" and they did.

When did dudes start willingly giant dading themselves. Have some self respect and dignity. It’s always these soft blob men opening up relationships to ‘save’ it or get puss they aren’t getting at home only to realize their chick has plan b on speed dial.

[Jansen]

Then she was depressed because she wanted to have another baby and we had trouble for years, before having twins AND adopting a kid from foster care. Then she said she didnt want to do anything because she was breastfeeding. At some point during all this she stopped telling me that she loves me. Not sure when. I did ask her once if she did, and she responded "what do you THINK?" I thought yes, but that might not have been the answer in retrospect.

[nudemacusers]

It's her house lol, I ain't on the mortgage. I couldn't do anything to prevent her coming in if I wanted to. My only choice is to stay or go.

Oh god stooopppp

[railGUN]

 

[nudemacusers]

you think that's bad?

 

I tell them not to modify their behaviour for my sake, because I don't want to be a burden on their relationship and (although I haven't said this) because there's no way they can interact without making me feel jealous. But I'll get over it. Knowing that it could never have been what I wanted makes it easier to accept that it's over.

He lives with his ex-wife and her new partner and voluntarily puts up with their affection

Our dude is folding laundry in the living room while his wife is scissoring her girl in the bedroom.

I'm currently a stay at home dad. I don't have a job or a college degree. I'm living comfortably right now. I want to stay for me as much as for the kids. I legitimately cannot imagine leaving this for a better situation.

Edit: I like how my laundry post was an accurate prediction

[Jansen]

Basically "LOL screw my kids my wife is paying me"

I've been gymming it up and eating healthier for a while now. Lost about thirty pounds. Been on antidepressants for a year, seeing a therapist next month. Even that was planned before the breakup. I've got some issues

 

[Averon]

What the fuck? How can you stay in that house

He's sleeping on the couch or in the guest bedroom while his ex-wife and her girlfriend are munching their carpets in the bed he used to sleep in. Have some damn self-respect and move out at least. I half-believing that is a troll thread.

[railGUN]

Waiting for this dude to admit he's sleeping on the laundry room floor, but it's actually a pretty comfortable floor and makes doing the laundry that much easier.

Where's he going to get the money to do that?  He has no job or education and said he has no friends.  Maybe he can start a new business as a professional cuck.

Then that fool need to find a job then. Staying there and being a third wheel loser won't last forever. Eventually the girlfriend will want his ass out the house.

Dunno, it's hard to find good laundry washers and toilet scrubbers these days.  He also can double as a footstool.

BS, you are not staying there for the kids.

[Jansen]

I ask this for want of advice in my own life, but do you think it's possible for someone to feel the way OP's wife does and find a way to truly love OP?  Is love a preordained thing that is either there or isn't?  Can you go from "kind of sort of" to "madly in love"?

At least the thread is generating important discussion

[remy]

threads like this give me a headache lmao

Duplex is the plan once we can buy a new house, which we may be able to in the next year.

Chances that his wife was always gay and not bi? 100%

[bork]

No animosity here. I was already planning on seeing a therapist so now we’ll have even more to talk about at our first session. I’ve started drawing more and I’m getting into playing guitar again, actually jamming with my wife’s girlfriend

My wife is the ONLY one who can cook lol. Girlfriend is going to take over dishes for me so I don’t know how anyone can say this isn’t a win

Does he still get to sleep with his wife, have some weird threesome where he gets pegged or something? I'm missing something here. Guy's acting like a literal pet for his wife and her girlfriend.

[Jansen]

The guy is seriously like a battered wife only staying in a relationship because her husband makes good money

Except all the abuse is self-inflicted

Dude she is taking your responsibilities around the house....I don't think you're grasping on how many levels you're being replaced. Tomorrow....lawyer....please
You maybe in a comfortable state now but that shit is going to flip on its head real quick.

I wouldn’t expect somebody to move in without taking on some household responsibilities?

Holy shit, this dude.

based on what I've learned from the internet the next step is for this guy to discover he's also a lesbian and start inviting shady people from the internet to hang out with him (and the kids)

[bork]

No, she’s dated women in the past and been open about it. She isn’t a lesbian

 

[Jansen]

It honestly sounds like you’re being well-taken care of. I wouldn’t move out as long as it doesn’t hurt you to see them together.



In your shoes, I’d get a job and save money just in case they ever do kick you out though.



Also start thinking about dating wealthier women.

It's complicated. I've been dealing with depression for over half of my life now. I've thought about suicide quite a lot but never attempted it. But the past few months I've been feeling better for the most part.

Two weeks ago my wife and I broke up, mutually and amicably. I felt really bad about it at first but I'm doing better now. For the first time in forever I have some hope for the future, in thinking about the possibilites of what I might do now. So that feels good.

I'd say right now I'm at least relatively happy. Not thrilled, but I'll say yes.

Separated from my wife but we still live together and take care of the kids. We wake up at roughly the same time right now, she gets ready for work and I give kids breakfast and stuff. I'm a stay at home dad though so I'm just home or out and about with the kids until she gets back. Then we eat dinner and whatnot.

I still go to bed when she does because we're still sharing the bed until her girlfriend moves in from out of state, and we don't know when that will be yet.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/coping-with-new-stepdad-in-kids-life.124118/page-2#post-22009104

Can't really offer any advice as my situation is so different. My wife and I just broke up but are still living together, and her girlfriend is going to move in with us eventually. I'm thrilled that my kids get along well with the girlfriend and I'm looking forward to having another adult around the house.

I was 18 when I had my first kid and I think I'm doing okay at it, so I personally wouldn't be too worried about his age. A lot of people have kids at 25.

I'm a (newly realized) bi guy and I don't get out enough to even know how into this stuff I am. But it's not a problem if you don't like gay bars in any case. You do you, you're no less queer for it.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/datingera-this-isnt-like-one-of-your-animes.666/page-309#post-21889979

Yeah, although I'm on Tinder I really want to try bettering myself before really dating. 11 years in one relationship, having kids and everything, my hobbies and other interests have kind of gone by the wayside. I don't feel like an interesting or impressive person right now so I can't imagine anybody's gonna really like me.

Also I have to sort out my anxiety and depression. Trying new meds and have an appointment with a counselor set finally.

Don't think anybody's been following my posts in this thread but I deleted the apps. Not really healthy for me right now.

I feel his ex wife is a sadist rather than being just a closeted lesbian. Also, the guy is either a major closeted masochist or in heavy denial that his life just sucks.

[Boredfrom]

As soon as Sabrina piss on on that thread:

Yeah, fuck me for being empathetic to both people in a no-fault divorce.

That was super noble of you. I hope you hold onto that virtue

Red Mercury tries to to also be empathetic:

I've known people with kids that are in non-traditional relationships/living arrangements and they have very happy households so isn't it hard for us to judge how they are being effected? Like it's not really fair to say kids can't be happy in a polyamorous living situation or that it's going to mess them up. If there's a bunch of seething resentment then yeah they can pick up on it but we don't know what their house is like. Though is does sound like there are 3 unhappy parties here and that's no good, but at least it hasn't been going on for ages so there's till time to fix it by getting yourself in a better place OP.

[benjipwns]

There are not three unhappy parties. I'm upset for now but I'll be okay. I already got used to a platonic relationship with my wife once and now I just have to again under different circumstances. My wife is happy to finally be with somebody she's really in love with. Her girlfriend is happy to be with the person she's regretted not being with for the past twelve years. She was happy to be with her even when I still was.

Outside of romance my wife and I have always gotten along very well and we still do. We're not fighting or hostile towards each other and we're not creating a toxic environment for the children. Like you I don't understand why nobody in this thread thinks a non-traditional living arrangement can't be healthy for the kids.
