This entire thing is just very sad. The article is just full of women so worn down by their manchild that they've just given up trying, or just subtly admitting that they've suppressed their feelings in order to make their man happy. And yes, I said man. Because even though the article and the Reddit women took great pains to use 'they' pronouns,(and that one lady editing her response for "inclusivity" lmfao) we all know which sex they are talking about.
This article perfectly demonstrates how the culture of male supremacy is still alive and well and how it effects marriage and all male-female relationships today.😥
I will forever be grateful for discovering this community in my teens so I'll never ever (knowingly) walk into a relationship with a man like this ever.🫶
This makes me feel sick but also very sad😢. This is literally advice that would be given in Jane Austen's Era that is now being repackaged as "modern". She is clearly squishing herself down for a man while also providing a contradiction: if her husband likes seggs and couch dates as a way to show love and she likes genuine cuddling and candlelit dates, then why are they together if they're so incompatible in the first place?
“Tell me what you think I said”
So many fights, accusations, and cheating was because he “heard” something other than what I said.
Htf is cheating the result of miscommunication?! 🤡
My ass has had it up to here with the pressure for women to continue to go out with fugly ass men who are also disrespectful, disloyal, and absolute pieces of shit just so she doesn't end up alone. Men have every freedom to go after only the most attractive women on the planet and have the free reign to do so. Miss me with that shit.
I don't know if this woman doesn't know it or not, but best believe that men go after and commit with women whom they feel attracted to strongly physically, sexually, and romantically exclusively. The men who for whatever reason feel he has to settle with a woman who does not have all those big three's, are the ones who end up cheating on her or leaving her for someone else down the line.
Let's normalize being shallow. I'm being dead serious right now, and this especially goes for women all around the world right now.
"It's been a while since you had sex so even though you don't feel like it, make a plan for it anyways." Is basically number 5 and that's where I stopped reading.
The only good advice was number 1, the rest were essentially "it is what it is, but only to his benefit. Put your feelings aside and be his bitch."
I'm pretty sure there would be no "price of admission" "my wife leaves the wet towel on my side of the bed" with a man- the wife would be expected to stop doing it. But with women- they can't even expect their manchild to do the bare minimum.
Holy shit, what an awful and depressing article. Like it boils down to these women having reduced themselves to “Give him sex, apologize at the cost of your dignity, and CoMmUnICaTe!!!111” Gross 🤮
I've also read articles about women explaining how to keep a long lasting relationship and I really felt like giving them an earful. It's like they are talking about talking about how to train difficult children, and now sometimes you just got to stop wasting energy getting angry..
I have a feeling that a good marriage is just a fairytale.
